Micro-saas is quite a favourite topic here at bootstrappers.io, so I decided to look into the topic and see if I could find ten examples of Micro-saas businesses.
Firstly, what is a Micro-saas?
The definition of a Micro-saas according to Tyler Tringas is:
It is a software as a service business owned and operated by one person or a small team. These businesses are location-independent, high margin, low-risk with predictable recurring revenue.
As Tyler is writing a book on it, I am happy to go with his definition. Well except for the location-independent part I don’t think that is a requisite
