What we’re about

Welcome to the Paris SaaS Builders Meetup!
This group is for founders, developers, and anyone curious about how to build and launch SaaS (Software as a Service) products. Whether you're taking your first steps or already working on something, this is a space to learn practical skills, share experiences, and connect with others on the same journey.

Our meetups focus on the real-world process of creating SaaS: validating ideas, building MVPs, architecting modern web apps, handling payments, onboarding users, and everything in between. Expect hands-on discussions, demos, and collaborative problem-solving.

If you want to deepen your understanding of how SaaS products are built — and meet people who are building them too — you’re in the right place. Let’s learn, build, and grow together.

This is a longer, half-day workshop for anyone who wants to move beyond the high-level overview and start putting the pieces together in a more concrete way.

If you’ve already explored the basics of SaaS building and want more hands-on guidance across product, technical, and business fundamentals, this session is designed for you.

Over half a day, we’ll work through the end-to-end SaaS journey: from refining your idea to shaping an MVP, making architectural decisions, and thinking through monetization, go-to-market, and launch readiness.

What we’ll cover (in more depth)

  • Refining and validating your SaaS idea with real-world constraints
  • Defining your MVP scope (what to build vs. what to delay)
  • Core SaaS architecture, broken down step by step
  • Authentication & user management
  • Multi-tenancy & roles
  • Payments & subscriptions
  • Onboarding flows
  • Choosing a tech stack that fits your goals and experience
  • Structuring a SaaS project so it’s scalable and maintainable
  • Early marketing & distribution strategies (finding your first users, positioning, and feedback loops)
  • Pricing, monetization, and early go-to-market considerations
  • Common mistakes founders make — and how to avoid them
  • Live walkthroughs, examples, and group discussion
  • Extended Q&A and problem-solving based on attendee projects

Who this workshop is for

  • Founders and solo builders actively working on a SaaS
  • Developers who want a clearer product + business perspective
  • Designers and PMs looking to understand the full SaaS lifecycle

What to expect

  • A hands-on, interactive half-day session
  • Fewer slides, more discussion, walkthroughs, and real examples
  • Time to ask detailed questions and get feedback on your ideas
  • A collaborative environment with people at similar stages

Takeaways
You’ll leave with a clearer SaaS roadmap, stronger confidence in your technical and product decisions, and a better understanding of everything around the product — not just features, but how it all fits together to ship and grow a real SaaS.
