If you ever tried to manage data, furthermore visual data, right on your object storage, you know the pain, the Picsellia Datalake is built to solve this exact problem
Hello everyone, I'm Pierre-Nicolas, CTO at Picsell.ia. What we have build is a plateform enabling you to search for public models and datasets that users can upload on the platform, clone them and use them directly in a standardized format directly on the platform.
Then you can annotate your data with our optimized interfaces with smart tools.
You can also run trainings and send all your data (checkpoints, models, results, logs) to the platform, with our API, where everything will be displayed and saved so your team can access it easily.
And once you are done if your trained model is public it is automatically added to our serving engine and you can use it freely !
I know this is a bit complex product but don't hesitate to ask me if you have any questions or need any help, here is my mail : pierre-nicolas[at]picsellia[dot]com
I would really love to have feedbacks on this and it's free so please try it and tell me what you think, see you there !
I'm gonna repeat what has been said but yes it really depends on your vertical. For example if we look at the companies that you quoted, they probably have had (and still have) completely different growth strategy. Moreover, it doesn't take as much time to build the MVP of Digital Ocean from scratch than it would take to build the Mailchimp's one.
If you have customers you can talk to and if they are happy with your actual product, they might give you advices on what they're expecting in the future and you can turn that in features that a lot more people may want right now.
In my very personal opinion, having 8 customers shouldn't give you the sensation that your product is finished and that you can scale (although I really don't know what you do so I may b wrong), so you must figure out what is missing to acquire more customers before thinking in terms of "Growth"

Shouldn't this be the other way round? The MVP of Mailchimp is a generic CRUD web app TM hooked up to a mail server, while the MVP of Digital Ocean needs something approximating a data centre.
