Dear Folks,<p>It's been a challenging journey, nearly two years of relentless effort, and yet our startup has faced its fair share of setbacks. We've chosen to bootstrap our venture because we believe in proving our concept before asking anyone to invest their hard-earned money into it. However, despite our dedication, progress has been slow, and we've hit roadblocks right from the start.<p>The journey in our industry is incredibly tough, especially for startups like ours, and as tech founders, the hurdles seem insurmountable at times. The giants in our industry pour vast sums into advertising, amounts that surpass what we've spent building our vision.<p>We're genuinely frustrated and uncertain about our future, but we remain determined to make it work. The support of this community could be a turning point for us, and we are immensely grateful for any assistance you can offer, be it trying out our product or spreading the word.<p>For almost two years, we've been diligently working on our product, and while we've managed to attract some free users, the leap to paid users has proved to be elusive. We find ourselves at a crossroads, in need of your support. If our product aligns with your needs, we implore you to consider giving us a chance. We aren't a well-known or affluent company; we are just a small startup striving to make a difference. All we ask is for your trust and a chance to prove ourselves.<p>Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for considering how you might support us on our journey.<p>p.s: What is our product: Despite the hardships, we've been dedicated to building a product we wholeheartedly believe in. For nearly two years, we've been developing Vulert, a tool that vigilantly monitors your open-source dependencies for potential vulnerabilities, suggests remedies, and ensures compliance with licensing requirements – all without the need for installation or access to your codebase. Vulert can seamlessly integrate into your CI/CD pipeline, making it a valuable asset for any tech team.<p>url: vulert[dot]com<p>Yours sincerely,
