| Hey HN, I'm Syket, and I've noticed a pattern: most startup failures aren't due to bad ideas, but slow/expensive technical execution. Over 30+ projects, I've developed a framework for rapid MVP development: Week 1-2: Core features + authentication + payments
Week 3-4: Mobile app + admin dashboard + analytics
Week 5-6: AI features + optimization + launch prep Recent examples:
- Taplab Agency: Now UK's largest edu creator platform (https://taplab.agency)
- Unithrive: Mentorship platform serving thousands of UK students (https://www.unithrive.net)
- Connect Jew: NGO management system scaling across multiple cities (https://connect-jew.vercel.app) What I've learned about startup tech:
1. *Start with revenue generation* - build payment processing first
2. *Mobile-first design* - 80% of users are on mobile
3. *AI integration* - users expect smart features now
4. *Performance = retention* - every 100ms delay costs users The key insight: Don't build everything. Build the minimum that generates revenue, then iterate based on real user data. I'm curious - what's been the biggest technical bottleneck in your startup journey? Happy to share specific solutions I've implemented. Portfolio: https://syket.io |
