In this episode…
Nagesh Anupindi shares his journey from data warehousing to founding Apoorva, a company focused on helping SaaS businesses stabilize, optimize, and grow. He discusses how bad data can break a business, the risks of hiring the wrong development teams, and why many companies turn to Apoorva when their software is in trouble.
One of the most compelling aspects of Apoorva’s approach is their revenue-sharing model. Instead of demanding large upfront costs, they align their success with their clients' revenue growth—making them an ideal partner for SaaS businesses looking to scale. This model was born out of necessity when a company in crisis had no cash to pay for development. The result? A win-win solution that helped both companies thrive.
Nagesh also breaks down why many SaaS founders make costly mistakes—from hiring offshore developers without understanding software foundations to choosing cloud hosting solutions that don’t scale effectively. Apoorva steps in to fix these issues, whether it’s through rescuing failing projects, rebuilding platforms, or offering a more cost-effective cloud hosting solution than AWS and Azure.
Finally, Nagesh introduces Apoorva’s D9 framework, a nine-phase software development methodology that ensures projects are delivered on time and with high quality. He also shares why they only hire employees with an IQ of 120 or higher, emphasizing the importance of critical thinking in software development.
