I recommend talking to potential customers. Do they want cheap? Do they want AI? Or do they want a reliable observability platform they don't have to think about because it Just Works. Not rhetorical! I don't know what these customers want, but you should know if you're going to build for them. Go talk to folks and then go make something people want.

Okay, I reached out to a few who are cursing DataDog, but also are not fully committed to buying what I'm building. How do I reach out to more people? I mean, it's like I KNOW there is some way here. Because they are not like "I'm happy with DataDog", but it's also not like "We're ready to abandon it for yours". I talked to ones paying like $40k/mo and $80k/mo(DHH).

ok wow. I will check them out and start reaching out. Also any industries I should target with the current idea? Company size/position you have in mind?

You’re the founder, you tell me. What is your target customer and addressable market and why? You’ve already mentioned some potential differentiators, but you’ll want to be able to cold call and pitch to the customers you believe you’re best suited to serve.

I can email you if you want to chat more, let me know.
