What is Micro Saas?

Micro Saas is a software as a service business owned and operated by one person or a small team.

These businesses are usually location-independent, with predictable recurring revenue.

But the most important identifying factor, and why mico saas is a useful concept is micro-SaaS solves a specific problem for a specific group.

Trying to solve all problems for everyone means you get lost in the shuffle. Micro Saas can focus your attention, help you get revenue and traction.

(See the ‘Isn’t Micro Saas just Saas?’ section if you don’t like this definition.)
