The SaaS Podcast - Growing Profitable AI SaaS & AI Agents
In this episode of The SaaS Podcast, Omer Khan interviews Flo Crivello, the founder and CEO of Lindy, an AI agent platform. Flo discusses the pivot from his previous startup, TeamFlow, and how a simple request from his sales team led to the idea for Lindy. He shares the challenges of launching an early version of the product, the importance of listening to early adopters, and the decision to rebuild the product from scratch. Flo also emphasizes the significance of positioning, recounting how repositioning Lindy as "Zapier for AI" led to explosive growth, and how building a following on Twitter helped him get 70,000 waitlist signups from a single demo video.
