Meet the founder behind Saaskart

Our founder built Saaskart on a single conviction earned on the front lines of enterprise technology: choosing technology should be transparent, independent, and genuinely helpful. That belief drives every decision we make.

Words by the founder

Why we built Saaskart

We founded Saaskart in July 2018 with one conviction: buying enterprise technology should be trustworthy and evidence-based. Everywhere we look, we see how slow, opaque, and costly software buying really is — and fixing that shapes everything we build.

Technology buying is broken. Talented teams sit through endless demos, wade through vendor marketing, and still overpay for tools that never quite fit. Discovery and procurement are fragmented and slow — the information buyers need exists, but it's scattered, biased, or locked behind expensive reports. The market needed one trusted place to bring the entire journey together.

So we built it: one trusted place to discover, compare, evaluate, and procure software, AI agents, and service providers — powered by SIA, our AI buying assistant, with AI-assisted matching, side-by-side comparisons, and buyer-intent signals grounded in verified data. Buyers get a dashboard to manage their entire SaaS stack, and vendors get an advanced, intelligent dashboard to reach real demand — built on structured, verified supply across thousands of software companies and technology providers worldwide.

We also built Saaskart Studio, our AI transformation studio and execution layer. Deciding what to buy is only half the problem — teams still have to build, integrate, and adopt it. Saaskart Studio closes that gap: AI strategy, AI agents, intelligent automation, enterprise software engineering, data & intelligence, and change management, all in service of designing the intelligent business.

And we're only getting started. We're building the machine-readable, agent-ready infrastructure that the next era of procurement will run on. Through all of it, we will always put the buyer first, never sell a ranking, and never fake a review. If that resonates with you, I'd love to have you along for the journey.

How we lead

Principles that never bend

The convictions that guide how this company makes decisions — every day, at every level.

Lead from the buyer

Every decision starts with the person trying to make a confident software choice. If it doesn't help them, we don't ship it.

Protect independence

Rankings and reviews are never for sale. We hold the line on transparency even when it costs us short-term revenue.

Earn trust daily

Trust is built in small, consistent acts. We sweat the details that keep buyers and vendors believing in us.

Our culture

The LEAD culture

Four values, one acronym — the operating system for how we work, hire, and grow.
