About This Conference

Radical Transparency in SaaS

SaaS Open stands out from the crowded SaaS conference landscape by emphasizing radical transparency — speakers share actual revenue numbers, churn rates, CAC payback periods, and growth metrics rather than generic advice. This open-book approach attracts operators and founders who value substance over polish, creating a community of practitioners willing to share both successes and failures.

SaaS Open in Austin and New York

SaaS Open has been hosted in Austin, Texas and New York City, two of the fastest-growing SaaS ecosystems outside of San Francisco. The one-to-two-day format keeps the event focused and high-density, with sessions designed for deep conversation rather than passive listening. The smaller scale compared to mega-conferences like SaaStr makes networking more productive and relationship-building more authentic.

For Bootstrapped and Funded Founders Alike

SaaS Open attracts a healthy mix of bootstrapped and venture-backed SaaS companies, with sessions relevant to capital-efficient growth regardless of funding model. Topics range from building your first sales playbook to optimizing pricing and packaging, reducing churn without a large CS team, and scaling marketing channels. The practical, metrics-driven content is directly applicable whether you're at $100K or $10M ARR.

Founderpath

Built for SaaS founders like you

While you're finding the best events to grow your network, Founderpath helps you grow your business with non-dilutive capital and real-time SaaS benchmarks.

Non-dilutive funding

Paul GrimVery good mix of bootstrapped leaders, venture-backed CEOs and public company execs. At first, it did seem that there were too many of the same speakers from prior events (eg, Chili Piper, PandaDoc, PARTech, Cognism, TimeDoctor, Cledara, etc.), but they were still good sessions. The new folks were all great additions.

Ashley ReinaVenue was great, food was delicious, contacts made were incredible. All in all such a fantastic networking event. There were too many concurrent evtns happening. And with no transition time difficult to absorb it. Also none of the table numbers lined up with the calendar events I was sent. So I didn't get to attend any of them... Met lots of cool people and had other conversations, but not the ones I was interested in.

Blaine HatabGreat conference full of founders + CEOS. All of the talks are inspirational or have great tactical tips. This conference has such a unique blend of bootstrapped founders and venture backed founders that really makes it stand out. These are real entrepreneurs building multi million dollar businesses and aiming big.

SaaSOpen Austin 2024 review image by Stefan Smulders

Stefan SmuldersNathan Latka has done an excellent job of curating a tightly-knit conference. This was not the usual bla-bla about unicorns as the only existing norm in the SaaS industry, but how paths less trodden bring out outliers, and when they succeed, it inspires other founders to follow their path. No Boring Keynotes Only founders share real stories from the trenches.

Derek SteerGood venue, but too many stages for the number of attendees -- individual sessions felt pretty thin. Vendors crammed into the hallway made it tough to get through or have a real conversation. As a speaker, last-minute changes in expectations made it a bad experience for me.

Sara RobertsFantastic event. I had many inspiring conversations and was able to brainstorm business ideas with many other founders. I landed a new client, met a new partner, and learned about a new product that I'll probably use in my next startup. Can't wait till next year!

Erik MolinPro: a smaller and more intimate event has its advantages, easier to connect with people, etc. Con: a bit sloppily organized.

Jared Kleinertvery well organized. maybe more conference-led reminders to adhere to speaker start times for attendees (ie go be there on time, guys!) and larger after parties / dinners would be nice. well done overall.
