What scares businesses most about AI tools?
Many businesses fear the lack of transparency in how AI works—when decisions are made, it's not always clear why. There's also concern that AI can’t adapt to complex, real-world decision-making like humans can. Plus, if AI tools rely on biased data, they can reinforce harmful stereotypes, creating unfair outcomes.
Here is a good article by JetSoftPro, a software development service, about 9...

While critics argue it lacks the authenticity of human intention, I see it differently: AI captures patterns and possibilities, turning them into a playground for artists and creators. The authenticity comes not from the tool itself but from how we use it.
Think of it as a creative partnership. AI sketches the frame, but it’s up to us to add the soul. Whether it’s value or gimmickry depends on...

What scares you about AI?
For me, it’s the unpredictability of AI’s decision-making in critical areas. AI doesn’t always understand the context or significance of its choices, which can lead to unintended consequences. A striking example from JetSoftPro’s article is how biased algorithms can impact hiring or lending decisions, unintentionally excluding qualified individuals. This highlights why transparency in AI...

Not soon, and maybe never completely! While AI is transforming many areas of development by speeding up code generation, testing, and debugging, software development is about problem-solving and creativity as much as it is about writing code. Developers bring strategic thinking, adaptability, and a deep understanding of business needs that AI still can’t replicate.
AI may handle repetitive or...

Do not be afraid to experiment and implement bold ideas. Marketers are used to a content plan and well-thought-out creatives, but let's be honest, they don't always work, because often one communication is similar to another. Here's a cool article about guerilla marketing strategies to get a little inspiration for the experiment :)

No-code and low-code tools have really democratized app development. They allow founders, especially those without a tech background, to build MVPs and iterate fast. This is a game-changer for early-stage startups because it reduces time-to-market and development costs significantly. However, a big gap remains in customization and scalability—no-code platforms often limit control over complex...

One JetSoftPro partner put it simply: “It’s like finding a best friend who also codes.” A friend of mine met his co-founder at a hackathon – they didn’t win but clicked while fixing bugs. Others connect through tech meetups or online project communities. The key is finding someone who shares your vision and works well under pressure. Also you can find a reliable tech partner who take all...

At JetSoftPro, our teams pick methods based on the project. One of our engineers said, "ETL pipelines are perfect for big data jobs – like building a custom track for data." But when clients need live access without copying data, we go with data virtualization. Real-time? Great when speed matters, but risky if something breaks. Batch processing is simpler and works for non-urgent tasks.

Over the past decade, I've seen my developer colleagues shift from feeling like code warriors to becoming code strategists. A friend at JetSoftPro joked that coding used to mean late nights wrestling with server configs, but now we have DevOps tools doing half the heavy lifting. The rise of remote work transformed our daily routines – Slack channels replaced office banter, and screen-sharing...

Do you know something about ESB?
An Enterprise Service Bus is a software architectural pattern designed to facilitate real-time data exchange between various applications. Think of it as a translator between different software languages — Java, .NET, or a legacy system — and a conductor ensuring that each part of your IT infrastructure communicates smoothly.
I understand it like a city with a public transportation network —...

How do you define your startup's competitive advantage?
Since the choice of competitive advantages for technology startups is limited, many companies follow similar paths and choose popular advantages. Let’s break them down in detail.
1) Being the First at Something
Being the first is attractive, but this advantage is highly unstable unless the primacy is historical. For example, if you are the first to invent a fundamentally new device, then being...

Gamified instruction really shines when it's more than just reading endless text (which most people skim, let’s be real) or flipping through static images (which many ignore). A short, interactive challenge can work wonders here. For example, a quick game with a specific goal—and a small reward at the end—can make learning much more engaging. Rewards could be something like a discount promo...

From what I’ve seen with my colleagues, they balance feature development and bug fixing by focusing on a few key things:
Critical bugs are always the first priority—anything that impacts usability or security gets fixed right away.
For less urgent bugs, they schedule fixes alongside new features, so the product keeps evolving without slowing down progress.
They also rely on automation in...

For integrating data, I usually prefer a mix depending on the project:
- ETL pipelines for moving data directly from source to destination, especially when dealing with large datasets that need transformation.
- Data virtualization when I need quick access to data without actually moving it, like for analytics or reporting.
As for real-time vs. batch:
- Real-time is crucial for applications...

How much are you spending on promoting and marketing your startup?
Early-stage startups are in the initial stages of their business growth. They typically have a marketing budget of around 10% of planned annual revenue (10% of total budget or less) or roughly $5,000 to $10,000 monthly.
I think that's the moment when guerrilla marketing comes in. One of the great things about guerrilla marketing is that it requires very little budget. In fact, you can create...

When I calculate a business's value, I look at a few key things:
- Revenue and profits – consistent earnings are a big factor.
- Market position – how strong the business is in its industry and growth potential.
- Multiples – comparing similar companies to get a sense of value (like revenue or profit multiples).
- Intangible assets – things like brand, customer loyalty, or tech that make the...

If you’re new to marketing, guerrilla tactics can be a fun, cost-effective way to get noticed. Start by:
1) Community engagement. Organize live demos or flash giveaways in local hotspots where your audience gathers.
2) Referral incentives. Encourage early users to share the product in exchange for rewards or discounts.
