I built a $14K/month SaaS using Discord
with Sam Adeniyi
Sam Adeniyi shares how he built Algrow, a SaaS tool that helps creators research and replicate viral video formats, reaching $14K MRR in 6 months without a coding background using AI tools like Cursor. He validated and grew the product primarily through Discord communities by muting his mic, screen-sharing his tool, and building genuine rapport before sharing a waitlist link. His core insight: find where your target customers already gather, understand their pain points deeply, and turn early users into advocates by offering them free access. The episode challenges traditional self-promotion tactics and positions Discord as an underutilized customer acquisition channel that aligns better with younger creator demographics than email-first approaches.
