Why we built Modus
Before Modus, we tried to build a few startups of our own. Some of them we really believed in.
None of them made it. And looking back, it usually came down to the same two things. Sometimes we hadn't done the maths properly — we underestimated the costs, overestimated the revenue, and ran out of room before we found our footing. Other times the idea was fine, but we simply didn't have the knowledge to make it work. We didn't know how to validate it, how to plan it, or where to look for the right kind of support.
What hurt the most wasn't the failing. It was realising afterwards that the information we needed had been out there the whole time. We just didn't know where to find it, or how to put it together.
That's the gap Modus is here to close. We're building the co-founder we wish we'd had — one that helps you check your numbers before they sink you, and gives you the knowledge that usually only comes from years of trial and error.
