SaaS That App - Building Tech-Enabled Businesses

Before AI can run your business, your business needs something for AI to run on. Isaac Harmon, founder of Harmon Digital and Unstack, joins Aaron Marchbanks and Justin Edwards to talk about where automation hits its limits. They cover the signals that a company has outgrown its systems, why tools like CRMs have lost their moat, and when businesses should import and customize existing software rather than build from scratch. They also dig into how the bottleneck is shifting from the people doing the work to the people checking it, and what that means for anyone relying on orchestration agents.

At Delta, Justin and Aaron share the same philosophy when it comes to clients: they treat people like colleagues, not just customers. Maybe that’s why Delta typically spends years working with the same companies: how many software engineering firms can you say that about?

In this episode, host Aaron Marchbanks sits down with Serial Saas Founder, Joseph Lee, to explore what building a $4M+ seafood startup taught him about selling software, adapting to changing markets, and building for the next era of B2B sales. Joseph shares how the collapse of the restaurant industry during COVID forced his company to pivot and pushed him into a much more hands-on sales role, where he experienced firsthand how frustrating traditional product demos could be. That experience eventually became the inspiration for Supademo and its approach to making software demos more interactive, accessible, and scalable.

The conversation also looks at why Joseph believes the traditional “book a demo” model is becoming outdated, how autonomous AI agents could change the pre-sale experience, and why AI should support sales teams rather than replace the human relationships that ultimately drive deals.

A file-upload vulnerability in Rails Active Storage just scored a 9.5 out of 10 on the severity scale, high enough that, as Justin Edwards puts it: "Everybody stop what you're working on and get this patched." In this episode of SaaS That App, Aaron Marchbanks and Justin break down what made this one so dangerous (anonymous, unprivileged file uploads were enough to compromise a server), why it took two separate patches to actually close the hole, and how they decided which client projects needed a full credential rotation and which didn't.

AI-powered SOC 2 compliance for SaaS startups is transforming how early-stage founders tackle audit readiness, and Varun Jain is leading the charge. The co-founder and CEO of ComplyJet joins hosts Aaron Marchbanks and Justin Edwards in this episode of SaaS That App to break down why compliance doesn’t have to be the terrifying, expensive nightmare most early-stage founders assume it is.

AI app development with Claude is making micro-SaaS, no-code software, and niche startup ideas faster and cheaper to build than ever before. Justin Edwards had a hyper-specific problem: he wanted a better way to drill German grammar, but the tool he wanted didn’t exist. So he described it to Claude and, roughly eight hours later, had a working app. In this episode of SaaS That App, Aaron Marchbanks and Justin use Schleifer as a real-world experiment in what happens when AI makes small, niche software ideas cheap and fast enough to build yourself. They get into why this could put pressure on micro-SaaS products, why trust and expertise may become the new moat, where vibe coding stops being safe, and why the same technology could turn thousands of people who never considered themselves founders into software entrepreneurs.
