Common problems & how founders solve them
The friction points Vietnam builders keep hitting.
Local payment rails aren't obvious
Choosing between global Stripe and local providers matters VNPay + MoMo + ZaloPay. Cash still huge for B2C.
Founders in Vietnam 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.

Translation & tax questions block launch
Vietnamese localization + local invoicing rules trip up 8 in 10 first-time founders.
