Most people have considered taking their business online, BUT have you thought about building a SaaS for your business?

We find the biggest pain point of your industry and build software around it so that we directly meet the needs of your audience.

Let’s address the elephant in the room…90% of SaaS companies fail 🐘😰

This is a major concern for all of our potential partners rightfully so.

It begs the questions: 1. Why do so many fail? 2. Why would I invest in such a risk?

Truthfully there's no real guarantee, your SaaS could flop 4 months from now or never even make it to market. Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise is lying.

But is it worth the risk? Absolutely, if you have the right team. Traditional dev shops will always try to seal the deal and take your money. At Phase One Ventures, we split the costs and share equity in the SaaS.

This means we put skin in the game. It's in OUR best interest to see the success and profitability of the SaaS. We only work with viable business ideas and we start building SaaS after we've conducted copious amounts of research.

So why do 90% of SaaS companies fail? In our experience, they fail because they spend more time fundraising rather than validating product market fit.

Our business model reverses these steps so the SaaS is cash flowing on Day 1.

We’re able to achieve this by first launching an MVP that targets the audiences top pain point. From here we collect feedback and conduct research to ensure the SaaS is user-centric and market-responsive.

So far we've got an impressive track record which you can check out on our website.

We hate to be the bearer of bad news...

but if you've built a $250k software at a traditional development shop, you've definitely wasted your money. 🤬😬

Why spend $250k building a bare bones software when you can spend that same investment building a business with a greater ROI? 💰📈

The difference between Phase One Ventures and a traditional dev shop is that we put skin in the game by splitting costs and sharing equity.

We don’t just build your software, we go a step further by providing an entire team of expert developers, designers, marketers, and product managers.

Since we’re partners, we help take your platform to market so that it achieves a 7 figure valuation within 8 months. We're equally as invested in seeing the startup's success as you are.

We don't just care about monetary transactions.

We're back with Dispute Panda Pro! 🐼

Six months after the launch of Dispute Panda - Credit Software, the credit repair industry was once again rocked by the Dispute Panda Pro.

Don’t be fooled by the success of this $40 million+ valued company, there were plenty of challenges along the way.

Although Dispute Panda is not a Phase One Ventures portfolio company, it was monumental in affirming our business model as a venture studio.

Dispute Panda - Credit Software is the latest disruption in the credit repair industry that utilizes the power of AI for 70% faster results compared to traditional credit repair businesses. 🐼

Although Dispute Panda is not a Phase One Ventures portfolio company, it was the first SaaS platform that affirmed our transition from a marketing agency to a venture studio. We have seen immense success with Dispute Panda…

After 7 days of the MVP’s launch, the platform hit a 6 figure MRR and we received a return on our initial investment.

After 90 days, it was acquiring 3,000 new users each month completely through word of mouth.

After 180 days, it had cleared a $40m valuation. This is just the success of our MVP.

Stay tuned to hear about the development of Dispute Panda Pro from our launch in April 2023.

In the last month, we've had over 100 applications from prospective partners. 🔥

We get a lot of questions about who we are and what we do like this one:

How do we choose which industries to work in? 🤔

We look to get into different industries that we haven't been in before. The beauty about SaaS is that it can benefit any industry and niche. We've already built SaaS platforms for credit repair, e-commerce, and identity resolution spaces.

We’ve had people interested in building SaaS for logistics, trucking, solar, Airbnb, and education just to name a few.

We look to expand outwards into all of these different opportunities vs. just doubling down. If we double down in the same industry, we just build competitors for ourselves.

So that doesn't really make a lot of sense.

The answer is that we strive to disrupt a vast array of industries and trust that our partners are the experts in those fields.

We know everything about SaaS and tech but lean on our partners to help us identify major pain points. 🔎

We're not gonna do anything that we don't foresee as having massive potential, but ultimately, our partners are the industry authority.

It's still a collaboration and it's in our best interest to do whatever possible to promote the SaaS.
