Helping SaaS Founders grow their businesses to $10M+ ARR

I started SaaStock in 2015 with a simple idea: give SaaS founders a real space to connect, learn, and scale faster–together.

Fast forward to today: SaaStock has become the global home for SaaS founders who are serious about growth.

We've hosted thousands of founders, VCs, and execs from Dublin to Austin, from seed stage to unicorn. We’ve built a community that doesn’t just celebrate scale, it shares the hard truths, the breakthroughs, and the lessons you only get by being in the room where it happens.

Before SaaStock, I spent 11 years in sales, getting my hands dirty, chasing targets, closing deals, and learning what real GTM pressure feels like. That experience taught me: there’s no shortcut to growth. You need the right people around you, the right mindset, and a willingness to evolve — especially now, in an AI First world.

Today, I'm focused on three things:

Growing SaaStock across Europe and the US as the leading platform for SaaS founders.

Building a new generation of founder-driven, AI-enabled companies.

Using the SaaS Revolution Show Podcast to tell the real stories — the wins and the war stories — from the frontlines of SaaS.

SaaS is changing fast.

I'm here for the builders who want to change with it and win.

If you're scaling a SaaS company, or investing in one, let's chat.

Founder

Our purpose is to make a real difference to the lives and companies of the SaaS community

Most SaaS companies fail within the first three years due to lack of runway, lack of product market fit and lack of founder experience in managing a business.
SaaStock helps B2B SaaS Founders on the journey to $10mill ARR supercharge their growth by connecting founders with VCs to help extend runway, learn from industry experts and build pipeline.
We do this through or Physical and virtual conferences, our founder membership program, SaaStock local community gatherings and media.
We are the only media and events business that focuses on SaaS founders scaling to $10mill ARR. This focus enables us to provide the highest quality events, content and connections
For founders in this stage of their journey.


It’s a scary, uncertain — and incredibly exciting — moment in SaaS.
Earlier this week, a founder said to me:

“We may be living through the most pivotal 12 months in SaaS history.”

He might be right.

AI isn’t just another feature wave. It’s a platform shift. Business models are changing. GTM motions are evolving. Defensibility is being redefined in real time.

That’s exactly why we’re bringing 50 B2B SaaS leaders together in Austin next week Thursday 25th Feb for SaaStock Local: Austin.

No panels.
No fluff.
No vendor pitches.

Just a curated room of founders and operators having honest, peer-to-peer conversations about:

• How they’re adapting their product strategy
• Where AI is creating real leverage (vs noise)
• What’s changing in GTM and revenue models
• How to stay relevant — and win — through this shift

📍 Austin

Running the largest 1:1 Meetings event in B2B Software

The B2B software model is being rewritten. Not gradually. Right now.

I've been speaking to SaaS founders across the spectrum lately, and the honest truth? The smartest people in the room are wrestling with the same fears.

Am I still building a product — or just a feature someone else's AI will absorb? Should every workflow become an agent? 
Will my pricing model survive when buyers only want to pay for outcomes? 
Is PLG quietly breaking?

These aren't hypothetical questions. They're keeping founders up at night, and they deserve real answers — not thought leadership, not hot takes, not another webinar.

That's exactly why April 15-16 in Austin matters more than any other two days on your calendar this year.

SaaStock USA is bringing together the B2B software leaders who are already running the experiments — testing AI packaging, rethinking seat vs. usage models, rebuilding GTM around agents, and winning. 

The people who've already paid the tuition of trial and error, so you don't have to.

Two days. Your peers. Structured 1:1 conversations with the founders actually navigating this shift in real time.

Not panels. Not theory. Intelligence you can act on straight away.

The AI platform shift doesn't reward the smartest founders. It rewards the best-informed ones moving fastest. Every month you spend figuring this out alone is a month a competitor spends learning from someone who already solved it.

SaaStock USA 15th and 16th April will be the room where that changes. Austin will become the AI intelligence hub for 2 days.

If you're building B2B software in 2025 and you're not in this room, you're navigating one of the biggest platform shifts in a generation without a map.

See you in Austin. 👇 Drop a comment if you're coming — I want to connect.

B2B marketing is being rewritten in real time. Are you keeping up?

Next week in London, 4th March, SaaStock is bringing together our community for an intimate afternoon with one of the sharpest minds in B2B SaaS marketing — Kady Srinivasan, CMO at Freshworks.

Kady has built and scaled marketing at Dropbox, Klaviyo, and you.com. She's flying in from San Francisco and is giving us her afternoon to dig into something every B2B marketer is grappling with right now:

→ How AI is fundamentally changing B2B buying behaviour
→ What GTM motions actually work in 2026
→ Where most SaaS companies are getting it wrong — and what to do instead

This is an intimate SaaStock community session. Only 25 spots remain.

If you're a founder, CMO, or marketing leader trying to figure out what 'good' looks like in the AI era — this is the room to be in.

Most professionals are using Claude incorrectly.

They open Claude.ai, copy the output, and paste it into their tool.

Back and forth. Every single time.

But Claude is already inside the tools you're working on.

No tab switching. No copy-pasting. Just Claude, where you already are.

Here's every place you can use it 👇

1️⃣ Excel
Analyse data, write formulas, and build reports — without leaving your spreadsheet.

2️⃣ PowerPoint
Rewrite slides, sharpen your narrative, and generate content inside your deck.

3️⃣ Chrome
A sidebar agent that reads any page, drafts emails, fills forms, and runs multi-step browser tasks for you.

4️⃣ Claude Code
For the technical side of your team, Claude lives in the terminal and ships code autonomously.

5️⃣ The API
Embed Claude into your own tools, automations, and internal workflows.

6️⃣ Cowork
A desktop agent that reads and edits your files while you focus on something else.

The best AI tool isn't the one you tab out to.
It's the one that's already where you're working.

Save this post — then go activate the ones relevant to your stack.

Follow me for a new Automation workflow every week. ♻️ Repost if this was useful for your team.

Claude Workspace and Fundamentals

Getting ready for another year full of insights and economic shifts with ProductLed!

Reverse-engineering AI companies hitting $100M ARR ≤ 12 months

WARP Week is officially underway.

This week, I’m working with a group of founders to design product experiences that get users to value in 60 seconds or less.

Not 60 minutes.

Not “after onboarding.”

Not “once you book a demo.”

60 seconds.

We’re spending 90+ minutes every single day this week redesigning their first user experience from scratch.

Today was all about getting radically clear on the user success story:

- Who is your ideal user?
- What is the core outcome they want?
- What are you helping them avoid in order to achieve it?

That last question changes everything.

For example:

You might help a business generate leads with a marketing quiz.

But the real promise isn’t “build a quiz.”

It’s:

Generate leads without becoming a copywriter, landing page designer, or quiz expert.

That clarity becomes the foundation.

From there, we design what I call the First Strike Experience:

What version of that core value can the user achieve in 60 seconds or less?

Using the quiz example:

Can someone create a quiz they feel proud of (and ready to share) within a minute?

If not, we’re not done.

Tomorrow, we map the current workflow and identify exactly where friction kills momentum.

The goal this week isn’t theory.

It’s designing real experiences that compress time-to-value to near zero.

I’ll share more insights each day.

If you want to join the next cohort, you can hop on the WARP Week waitlist.
