Overview


Co-founded a B2B software development agency that built and exited two products: a client reporting dashboard platform for sales agencies and a CS:GO skin marketplace search engine API. Both products achieved successful exits through separate IP buyouts.


The dashboard platform automated client reporting for sales agencies—building 6 client-facing dashboards from scratch, onboarding 10 paying clients in 6 months, and achieving a 90%+ retention rate. The CS:GO marketplace API provided real-time search and filtering capabilities for skin trading platforms, processing thousands of daily queries with sub-100ms response times.


As technical co-founder, I led full-stack development—designing and building frontends, architecting API integrations, and managing client acquisition. Both exits validated product-market fit and proved the systems were built to scale independently. These projects taught me how to ship 0→1 products under real constraints, balance rapid iteration with technical quality, and build systems that continue working without their creator.

Product 1: Dashboard Platform


The Problem

Sales agencies wasted 10-15 hours per week manually compiling client reports from Google Sheets, Typeform, and CRMs.


Time Wasted: 10-15 hours/week per agency
Error Rate: High (manual data entry)
Scalability: Required hiring to grow
Existing Solutions: Too generic or too expensive

Product 2: CS:GO Marketplace API (2M)


The Problem

CS:GO skin trading platforms needed fast, reliable search capabilities across millions of items with real-time pricing and availability data.


Scale Requirements: Thousands of daily queries
Performance Need: Sub-100ms response times
Data Freshness: Real-time pricing updates
Integration: REST API for marketplace platforms

Dashboard Solution


Built 6 specialized dashboards to automate the entire workflow.


01 — Client Overview
02 — Data Integration (Google Sheets, Typeform, CRM)
03 — KPI Visualization
04 — Automated Reporting
05 — Client Management
06 — Platform Analytics

Marketplace API Solution


Built a high-performance search engine API for CS:GO skin marketplaces.


01 — Real-Time Search Engine
02 — Advanced Filtering (price, wear, rarity)
03 — Price Aggregation & Analytics
04 — REST API with Rate Limiting
05 — Redis Caching Layer
06 — Sub-100ms Response Times

Technical Challenges


API Rate Limiting

Intelligent caching layer reduced API calls by 80%


Real-Time Sync

WebSocket push updates with polling fallback


Multi-Tenant Security

Row-level security with tenant isolation


Data Normalization

Unified transformation layer across 3 different API formats

Impact


Dashboard Product
Clients: 10 paying customers in 6 months
Users: 100+ end users across agencies
Time Saved: 10+ hours → 30 minutes per week
Retention: 90%+ throughout lifecycle
Data Sources: 100+ automated connections


CS:GO Marketplace API (2M)
Response Time: Sub-100ms average
Daily Queries: Thousands of search requests
Data Coverage: Real-time skin pricing & availability
Integration: REST API for trading platforms


Both products exited through separate IP buyouts and continue to operate post-acquisition.

Learnings


Product

Real-time sync is table stakes, not a feature. Start with one perfect dashboard instead of six good ones.


Business

Weekly user feedback > initial assumptions. Build for one vertical before expanding.


Technical

Component libraries compound. TypeScript prevents bugs in complex transformations. Over-invest in error handling.


Outcome

Both products exited through successful IP buyouts and continue to scale without me—proof of maintainable architecture and strong product-market fit.
