We are working on an idea how to build SAAS business apps on top of Nostr. The idea is to rebuild apps like Slack, Notion, Figma, Github, Linear on single Nostr relay and Nostr standard that would allow some cool things like seamless cross-app messaging (e.g. like Slack <> Linear), cross-app workflows. Here is PDF with more details.: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U_bC4AmR2_61GwgiShNv_EctOcyh4u7A/view?usp=drive_link If anybody is working on something similar or like the idea and want to join our efforts, please let me know.

I agree with all of that 💯% I would add that legacy SaaS must protect its moat, so must have user lock in, which is anti-usability, and can never be as free or as pro-user as a Nostr-based solution can be. Nostr-SaaS can outcompete with better a) account portability b) data interoperability c) no vendor lock-in. Go to market similar to Yammer and Slack, get early adopter individuals within org and then market internally to IT team. Step 1) Take on legacy SaaS. Step 2) Take on legacy ERP.

Dude, I love this! I really like the idea that data/comms are essentially synced across clients, as everyone seems to have their preferred. That seems like a big unlock. My focus is on security at SaaS companies and of SaaS products (internally and externally), so I am very curious to explore the impacts on that side of things further. I have limited technical knowledge of Nostr at the moment, but was planning to start really diving in post Christmas. I'd love to help out, if you think it would be useful! Also, small and minor bit of feedback - I found the font selection very hard to read 😅

In my defense, this was the WIP version. I planned to redraw it to make it bit more readable. But then people asked me to publish it. I will probably redraw it a bit and then publish it natively on Nostr. But don't expect miracles. I can't draw very well. 🤣 On serious note. I will DM you, I would love to talk with somebody with security and Saas experience.

Pssst! That's in notes for the funding pitch. 🤣 In all seriousness. That's one of our priority and reason why we are so excited. This will allow completely new experiences that will be very hard to match for traditional SaaS apps. One example that I really like. Figjam <> Notion integration where block in Notion can be placed in the Figjam whiteboars and be automatically synced. Typically when you organizing some workshop and you have brief document. That document can live in Notion, in Figjam board and the even shared in Slack. Whenever you change something, it will change everywhere.

Nice presentation. Have you thought about starting out as a support suite for businesses to build their own internal apps and tools? Feels like that could be the easiest launchpad (versus trying to replace or integrate existing apps in the wider Saas marketplace).
