    The friction points Ireland builders keep hitting.

    Local payment rails aren't obvious

    Choosing between global Stripe and local providers matters Stripe (HQ'd in Dublin) + SEPA. Low corp tax attracts founders.

    Founders in Ireland over-scope their first product

    We see it constantly: 6-month roadmaps, no launch. The 3-project cap is designed against exactly this failure mode.

    • Composite pattern across 200+ builder interviews
    Translation & tax questions block launch

    English localization + local invoicing rules trip up 8 in 10 first-time founders.
