Business Idea:
A platform that helps failed SaaS founders monetize their unused or low-revenue codebases by selling them as ready-to-deploy bundles at affordable prices, unlocking hidden value and aiding developers or startups seeking quick, reliable solutions.
Problem:
Many entrepreneurs invest time and effort into SaaS products that ultimately fail to generate revenue, leaving behind valuable codebases that go unused or are difficult to sell, resulting in lost opportunities.
Solution:
Create a marketplace where failed SaaS product owners can offer their codebases, either individually or bundled, at low prices. Buyers can quickly acquire ready-to-deploy solutions, reducing development time and cost.
Target Audience:
– Failed or withdrawn SaaS founders wanting to recoup some value
– Solo developers or startups seeking affordable, prebuilt SaaS solutions
– Investors looking for disposable, customizable SaaS code to build upon
Monetization:
The platform charges a small commission or listing fee on each sale, generating revenue from transactions. Optional premium placement or promotional features can boost visibility.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP):
Transform failed SaaS products into valuable assets by providing an accessible marketplace for affordable, ready-to-deploy codebases—turning failed products into revenue streams for sellers and shortcut solutions for buyers.
Launch Strategy:
Start with a simple website listing a few bundled codebases from your own projects or early user submissions. Use social media and developer communities to attract initial buyers and sellers. Gather feedback, refine the platform, and expand gradually.
