Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders
S9 E35: Prince Ghosh, Factored Quailty

We went through Y Combinator, and Y Combinator famously has this quote saying, do things that don't scale.

And because of that constraint systemically, legacy companies or incumbents or big companies in the space can often not do things that scale.

Your biggest advantage you have is you're not withheld by that constraint of needing to do things that scale. What that means tangibly is for us early on at Factored Quality, we did a ton of things that don't scale. And we still to this day do it, right? Things like white glove customer service onboarding.
