Hey founders.. For anyone sending cold emails, you’re probably well aware how important it is to get your emails delivered - but setting up your domains the right way can be a little tricky. I put together a checklist that covers all the essentials for maximizing deliverability: • Setting up SPF, DKIM and DMARC • Choosing the right structure • Warming up your domain effectively No fluff, just a practical checklist to help you stay out of spam and get the best results from your outreach. If you’re interested, let me know and I’ll share it with you.

*For founders looking to incorporate in the U.S.*—I found a way to get full Delaware C-Corp or LLC incorporation for just $250 instead of $500+. It includes EIN, founder agreements, access to U.S. banking, and more. Everything’s streamlined, and you get personal guidance along the way.

SaaS Labs Accused of Misleading Job Postings Job seekers are raising red flags about troubling recruitment practices allegedly carried out by SaaS Labs, a company operating in the software-as-a-service (SaaS) space. Several candidates claim that the company is posting fake job listings on LinkedIn, disguised as legitimate hiring opportunities, but are in fact tactics to obtain free project work under the name of "recruitment assignments." Two recruiters frequently mentioned in these complaints are Akshit (HR) and Shirley (Product Recruiter). According to candidate testimonies, the process begins with flattery—profiles are said to be "liked too much" by the design team, with over-the-top praise that lacks credibility. But what follows is even more concerning: candidates are spammed with follow-up messages and calls—often up to 10 times a day, even when they’ve explicitly declined further participation or said they’re considering other opportunities. More disturbingly, calls are made from multiple contact numbers, creating a sense of pressure and making it harder for candidates to avoid the unwanted communication. Several have stated they were even asked to lie during interviews or pretend to be interested in roles they had no intention of pursuing. These tactics appear to be part of a deliberate strategy to push candidates into unpaid work under the false promise of a job. If true, this is a serious violation of professional ethics and fair hiring practices. It’s time for us to take a closer look at companies exploiting their recruitment tools, and for job seekers to remain cautious and report such behavior.

Hi, for several years Form-Data.com offered a forms-backend as a service, for people building their own static forms. Now, I'm happy to share that I've added a unique text-to-form builder. As with any modern tool, you can of course use AI to generate your form. Here's a demo showing how you can have a fully working hosted form in just 2 minutes, with all the bells-and whistles needed in the backend, such as spam filter, email notifications, auto-response emails and integrations. I'd really appreciate if you give it a go and share any feedback - the studio is open without registration, and if you want to publish you need to signup without credit-card, and you get 100 free credits.

Just finished building a system that helps SaaS teams turn search intent into demo opportunities—without the usual manual grind. It starts with a single Apollo search URL. From there, the system: • Scrapes leads via Apify • Filters out incomplete or duplicate data • Verifies emails to avoid bounce issues • Sends the valid leads to Perplexity for context (what they do, who they serve, etc.) • If there’s enough info, ChatGPT writes a personalized intro line • The lead + icebreaker is then auto-fed into an Instantly cold email campaign • Finally, the system updates the database so you don’t hit the same lead twice The entire pipeline runs automatically, and every message feels handcrafted—even at scale. If you’re doing cold outbound to book demos, this kind of setup is a game-changer for making your outreach smarter, not louder. Happy to walk through it if anyone’s building something similar or wants to jam on cold systems.

In 20 minutes I'll be speaking about some local development tips and tricks with Strimzi and KIND (Kubernetes in Docker). There will be a bonus cameo of the LittleHorse Dashboard!
