Very 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.

Venue 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.

Nathan 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.

I can't think of a better conference for a SaaS founder. The content and speakers are top notch, feels like each and every presentation was carefully curated. 10/10 will definitely attend again.
SaaS Open 2024 returned to Austin, Texas, bringing together bootstrapped and capital-efficient SaaS founders for a multi-day conference focused on radical transparency. The Austin edition featured main stage talks where speakers shared actual revenue numbers, churn rates, and growth metrics, along with workshops and curated networking events throughout the city.
The 2024 Austin edition delivered sessions on the tactics driving SaaS growth in a post-ZIRP environment: optimizing pricing and packaging, building efficient outbound sales motions, reducing churn through customer success automation, and leveraging AI to increase team productivity without expanding headcount. Every session emphasized specific metrics and reproducible frameworks.
Austin has emerged as a major hub for bootstrapped and capital-efficient SaaS companies, making it a natural home for SaaS Open. The 2024 edition included curated VIP dinners, founder roundtables organized by revenue stage, and informal meetups across Austin's tech-friendly neighborhoods. The event attracted founders from across the US and internationally who value the open, metrics-driven culture of the SaaS Open community.
Common questions about this event edition.
