Techmart – Costco for SaaS. The usual tech tools at lower prices

Hacker News

So here’s the deal. I’ve been bootstrapping my startup and realised the sh*t ton that we’re spending on saas. You know the drill in this game, minimize overhead and maximise productivity, usually with tools. We use 28 SaaS tools today – apparently the average is 89, according to Okta - at a range of $9-$600 monthly; it adds up fast!! That’s when it hit me! What if there was a Costco, but for tech tools?? Even software sellers would win, by acquiring customers at a lower CAC -- a no brainer for both buyers and sellers. So the concept is simple, a member store where you could buy all of your usual tech tools but at lower prices; Techmart. I’ve built with my brother for the past 2 weeks and we’re now launching it to the world to see if we’re just crazy or this is for real. I’m curious, are we missing something or is it an untapped goldmine waiting to be discovered? Other people need this too? I'm ready to hear the harsh truth.
