Absolutely.

so much for having me today.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

I'm excited to be here.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

So Thunkable is a drag and drop tool to build mobile apps.

So if you don't know how to code and you're looking to build an app, we're the software to use.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

Now, as you pointed out, there's a whole slew of kind of competitors in the space.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

We're not blind to that and saying we're the first ones to ever think of such an idea.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

But I think

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

What makes us interesting is when you see, you know, kind of the competitors fall into a couple of buckets.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

Either there's outsourcing, which is obviously very expensive.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

There's kind of simpler to code tools.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

But those are things that still require you, you know, instead of writing Java or Swift, you can write JavaScript.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

But they still require you to code.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

And the last segment is kind of these.

templated solutions.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

The problem with a lot of those is while they look good and solve for specific use cases, they're not really powerful enough to let most people do what they're trying to do.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

If what they were trying to do could be solved with a templated solution, then they wouldn't need to build the app that they're trying to build.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

And that's why we made Thunkable.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

It's the only tool really simple enough for the non-developer or novice developer to use, but powerful enough that you can actually build what you're trying to build.

823: SaaS: Pre Rev SF Based with $3.3m Raised Aiming to Help SMB's Build Mobile Apps, Will People Pay?

So right now, everything we do is completely free.
