Rustam

I’m Rustam, 24yo, from Uzbekistan. Dropped everything to teach myself AI engineering. Now I build things, break things, and ship things. That’s the whole story.

@afterhoursHB Before raising prices make sure you’re not leaking revenue first. Most SaaS lose 5-10% MRR to failed payments. Fix that before touching pricing. That’s why I built replii.xyz automated Stripe payment recovery.

Why don’t you double the prices of your SaaS today? Have you actually thought about it? What would your current users say? Would new users still buy? Would your MRR grow even with fewer customers? Pricing is not just a number. It defines: → your positioning → your margins → your support load → your infrastructure cost → the type of customers you attract → how fast you can grow If you sell at 2x the price, you might need fewer users, less support, less infra… And your MRR could still explode. Most founders pick a price at the last minute. But pricing should be at the center of the business.

@qasimcode A lot of what looks like churn is actually involuntary failed payments, expired cards, soft declines. Built replii.xyz to recover these automatically from Stripe. You’d be surprised how much revenue leaks silently.

Losing sleep over customer churn? I did too until we found AI-driven insights that revealed blind spots in our user journey. Watching loyal customers leave hurts, but tech showed us the way back. Ever faced this? Comment your story & share the learnings! #Technology #AI #Software

@simplydt 100%. And a big chunk of that “churn” isn’t even real it’s just failed payments. Card expired, limit hit, bank declined. I built replii.xyz to fix exactly this. Recovers that silent revenue leak from Stripe automatically.

The single best startup advice I can give is to stop building features and fix the one thing users complain about most. Every time. Bugs and friction kill retention faster than missing features ever will. Churn is the biggest silent killer.

@ardent__dev replii.xyz Recovers failed Stripe payments automatically. Most SaaS founders lose 5-10% MRR without knowing it. Built it because I saw the same problem everywhere 🚀

@pierreeliottlal Solid thread. “Sell before you build” couldn’t agree more. At $2.8M ARR, how much are you losing to failed payments? I’m Rustam, built replii.xyz to recover that leaked revenue automatically via Stripe. Even at scale, 5-10% MRR bleeds from dunning.

I'm 31. I built an AI startup called GojiberryAI to $2.8M ARR. Got accepted into YC. If I had to start from 0, here's exactly what I'd do: 1. Sell it before I build it. No code. Just a simple slide deck (mine was 6 ugly slides) explaining the problem, the solution, the outcome, and the price. I made my first $10k that way, before writing a single line. 2. Pick a painfully specific customer. Not "B2B SaaS." Something like "founders at 20-person SaaS companies about to hire their first SDR." So specific that the right person reads it and thinks "that's me." 3. Start outbound on day one, but only to people showing intent. Not scraped lists. People engaging with competitors, changing roles, raising money, or publicly posting about the exact problem I solve. That's the gap between a 1-2% reply rate and 25-40%. 4. Lead with value, never a calendar link. Send a blueprint, not "got 15 minutes?" Let the resource do the selling, and the trial becomes the obvious next step instead of a pitch. 5. Pick ONE channel and go deep. For us it was outbound first, then Reddit (10M+ organic views), then LinkedIn lead magnets. I wouldn't touch a second channel until the first one was clearly working. 6. Talk to customers every single day. The product doesn't matter until you understand the problem better than they do. Spend 90% of every early call listening, not demoing. 7. Only build once people are actually paying. Then keep it dead simple and price it to sell itself. We landed on $99/mo with a free trial, so the funnel runs without me dragging anyone onto a call. 8. Do this relentlessly for about 12 months. That’s roughly how long $0 to $2.5M took us. Bootstrapped. No outside funding. Most founders don’t lose because they can’t build. They lose because they build too early, sell too late, and quit the channel before it compounds.

@fayhecode Respect for going all in 💪 One thing that helped me a lot of SaaS MRR leaks through failed payments silently. I built replii.xyz exactly for this recovers failed Stripe payments automatically. Might help push past that $100 plateau.

Quit my job 6 months ago. Already 4 apps on the App Store, still stuck at 100$MRR and talking to myself on X🫪

@charitychaste Spot on. And a big part of that churn number is involuntary failed payments, not unhappy customers. Fixing that alone can drop your churn rate significantly. Built replii.xyz for exactly this.

Here's the number that's quietly killing SaaS fundraising rounds in 2026: churn rate. My co-founder @OluOfUpside breaks down why investors have stopped asking about MRR first — and what they're looking at instead. Read the full analysis 👇 theupsidejournal.com/articles/saas-…

@ildar_bytes Love this energy! ☀️ One quick way to actually lower churn recover failed Stripe payments automatically. Most founders don’t realize how much MRR they leak there. Built replii.xyz for this exact problem!

A bit late, but wishing a fantastic summer to all the SaaS founders and teams out there! May your MRR grow, your churn decrease, and your databases be filled with tons of new clients and happy subscribers.

@MuzammilData Spot on. And a big part of that churn number is involuntary failed payments, not unhappy customers. Fixing that alone can drop your churn rate significantly. Built replii.xyz for exactly this.

Most SaaS founders track MRR. Few track where MRR dies. Churn by cohort reveals the truth: → Month 1–3: onboarding failure → Month 4–6: feature-value gap → Month 7+: competition Fix the right month. Save the revenue. #DataAnalytics #SaaS #RevenueGrowth #Startups

@bandar_h01 Great breakdown! One thing to add a chunk of that “churn” isn’t real churn. It’s failed payments. Expired cards, insufficient funds. Customers who want to stay but can’t pay. I built replii.xyz to recover them automatically.

At what point do people turn their stripe notifications off? I am at 500$ mrr and still have it on for every payment.

@VrishabhKumar1 Nice numbers! 💪 If you want to boost that MRR check if you’re losing revenue to failed Stripe payments. Expired cards, insufficient funds etc. I built replii.xyz to recover them automatically. 50% off first month!

I made $2,829.65 in May 2026 💰 📷 Stripe revenue: $1,904.23 📷 App Store proceeds: $925.42 📷 expenses: $1,026.75 📷 Net profit using App Store proceeds: +$1,802.90 Net Profit: 63.7% . Goal is to increase MRR, less focus on cost cutting.

@JanuBuilds Happy birthday! 🎉 Building from zero takes guts. I quit my job recently and started building too. Respect the journey keep going! 💪

Today I turn 30. At 18, I had a clear plan: by 30, I'd be a millionaire. I'm not. Not even close. Instead, I have a company I built from zero. A (insanely talented and cool) team. Projects I'm proud of. And the freedom to do my own thing, something 25-year-old me wouldn't have dared to even hope for. And yet I keep catching myself thinking: "Once I hit the next milestone, then the good life starts." That's the lie I've been telling myself for years. Because life doesn't happen at the next milestone. It happens in between. On an ordinary Tuesday. Playing basketball in the sun before the next meeting starts. Over dinner with friends. The last few months might have been the happiest of my life, and I almost missed it because my head was already on the next goal. So that's what I'm taking into my 30s: keep the ambition, but stop pushing happiness to "later." I've told myself that before and never managed it. This time I'm actually going to try.

@JonBuildsHQ Hey! I’m Rustam, building Replii — it recovers failed Stripe subscription payments automatically for SaaS founders. Would love to connect! What are you building? 🔗

Hey founders and builders! I'm a solopreneur dad building a web tool in public Looking to connect with people building in: -SaaS - Tech - e-commerce - AI tools - Web apps - ... Let's connect! 🔗

@tech_nurgaliyev Sometimes the easiest revenue isn’t from new deals it’s recovering the customers you already have. Failed Stripe payments silently kill MRR. I built replii.xyz to fix that automatically.

Closer is 2 weeks with me. He didn’t close a single deal. What is the problem?

@vladsiu Congrats on the milestone! 🫡 If you’re on Stripe, make sure you’re not leaking MRR to failed payments. Built replii.xyz to recover them automatically no code needed. 50% off first month!

I'm proudly reached a new milestone 🫡🥳

I quit my job and built an app that recovers failed Stripe payments automatically. Most SaaS founders lose 5-10% of MRR to involuntary churn and don’t even know it. Replii detects failed payments and recovers customers for you. No code needed. Link below 👇

@vladsiu 👍
