In case you haven’t heard of us yet, FairSoftware is a startup that helps you start your own startup. This blog is dedicated to the entrepreneur in all of us.
Below is our story.
The Original Idea
It’s been almost three years since I visited my friend Christophe in Paris for a casual chat that eventually lead to FairSoftware as you see it today.
We were discussing how hard it was to do a software project alone. With no resources, no product and no income, how did everyone else manage to pull it through?
I live in Silicon Valley, the capital of startups. Here, we start startups by giving equity and stock options to the early employees and co-founders. That got us thinking: can we move this model online and make it accessible to everyone?
What was meant to be a brief chat turned into an exciting 10-hour discussion on the potential of the idea.
Execution
Turning that idea into a product that is actually useful took us two years. The idea is simple. Implementing it is way more complex than you’d think. Implementing it so that it feels simple despite all the complexity under the hood, that’s what we worked hard to achieve.
We believe that there are many entrepreneurs out there who don’t have the access or fortune of Larry and Sergey, but have ideas worth pursuing. Our vision is to export entrepreneurship and make it accessible to everyone. Working solo is a fool’s errand. Assembling a team used to require significant investment. No more.
