Scaling eSahayak.io to 100k+ Users starting with $0 in Tech Stack

Hey r/microsaas!

I'm the technical co-founder of eSahayak.io, where we've been navigating the legal documentation space for the last few years. We started esahayak.io as a side project, and I'm thrilled to share that we're now growing every month. Here's how we managed to launch and scale to over 100k+ users with zero initial investment on tech:

Tools Used:

  1. Vercel - For seamless deployment and hosting. It's fantastic for startups due to its ease of use and performance benefits.
  2. MongoDB - Our database solution. It's scalable and flexible, perfect for handling complex legal data.
  3. Inngest - This has been crucial for managing background jobs, ensuring our processes run smoothly without impacting user experience.
  4. Resend - (resend.com) - We use this for all our email communications. Reliable and integrates well with our stack.
  5. AWS S3 - We use it for storage needs, leveraging its durability and scalability.

Key Takeaways:

  • Solve Real-World Problems: Focus on real issues people face, especially in niche areas like legal documentation where there's a clear need.
  • Trust the Process: Growth takes time. We've seen consistent growth by sticking to our plan and iterating based on user feedback.

eSahayak.io is now profitable, and we're expanding our service offerings. I hope sharing our stack and journey helps someone out there who's trying to decide on their tech stack for their micro SaaS.
