How Team Yareta Built Their MVP in Six Weeks with Codegiant
Yareta’s scalable MVP secured $100K in contract value in just six weeks. A success story of innovation and efficiency in venture capital technology.
Yareta.co is revolutionizing the identification of exceptional entrepreneurs through science and AI. By disrupting the venture capital landscape, it enhances the due diligence process for investment decision-making.
The Initial Hurdle
As Team Yareta set out to develop their minimum viable product (MVP), they compiled an extensive list of tools and subscriptions they believed essential for the project. Their focus was on creating a robust tech stack that would ensure scalability, maintainability, and performance. However, the complexity of this setup raised concerns about costs and management.
Here’s a glimpse of the initial list of technologies and services they planned to use including documentation and observability they missed:
While this setup was comprehensive, it required significant configuration and multiple paid services, resulting in overwhelming costs and complexity.
Discovering a Better Way
Upon consulting with Codegiant, Yareta learned about a more efficient and integrated approach to achieving their goals. Codegiant’s one-click solution offered a way to streamline their setup process drastically. In just five minutes, they could access all the tools they needed without the burdensome costs and complexities of managing multiple services.
Codegiant’s one-click solution deploys six essential development tools, providing both development and production URLs after deployment to Cloudflare. This streamlined setup helps the teams to kickstart their projects quickly and efficiently.
Full Stack Next.js App: A Git repository with CI/CD integration, set up with best practices and an authentication alternative to GitHub and Superbase.
Issue Tracker: A scrum management tool that serves as an alternative to Jira, facilitating effective project tracking and collaboration.
APM Tracing: Built on Sentry and readily integrated with the application for enhanced performance monitoring and error tracking.
Observability: Monitors live applications with built-in Grafana, allowing teams to visualize data effectively. This serves as an alternative to Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, and the ELK stack.
Uptime Monitoring: Keeps tabs on critical endpoints and includes a status page to publish availability information to the public.
Cloud-Based IDE with GenIE AI: An integrated development environment that includes GenIE AI for coding assistance, code documentation, debugging, and more.
Document Hub: Automatically generates API documentation and can be utilized for various other documentation needs.
This solution allowed Yareta to optimize their development workflow and reduce costs significantly.
Cloudflare’s Resources
Codegiant's integration with Cloudflare further enhanced Yareta's deployment capabilities, offering cost-efficient and scalable resources that included:
Cloudflare R2: Low-cost object storage with zero egress fees, an excellent alternative to traditional solutions.
Durable Objects & Workers KV: A robust alternative to DynamoDB for scalable data management.
Edge Services: Providing ultra-fast, distributed performance for building applications.
and more.
Moreover, with Codegiant’s templates, API endpoints were auto-generated once a table was created, leveraging Cloudflare's D1 for serverless SQL database capabilities. This feature dramatically simplified the process of integrating databases and managing API requests.
The Success Story: $100K in Contract Value Within Six Weeks
In a rapid six-week timeline, Team Yareta successfully launched their MVP, showcasing a fully operational application deployed on Cloudflare’s edge network. The streamlined processes provided by Codegiant enabled the team to focus on refining their product and gathering valuable user feedback, positioning them for future growth and success.
This strategic, agile launch approach resulted in $100K in contract value from early clients, underscoring strong market demand and the platform’s high potential. This experience highlights how utilizing Codegiant can empower startups to reduce complexity, save costs, and accelerate their development timelines. For Yareta, this meant more time to innovate and less time managing a multitude of disparate tools.
