If you've built this before, would love to know the challenges and iterations of doing this.
I am trying to find an easy solution to employee ownership that I would have liked as an employee. While a startup can fight only limited battles and much less, innovate on those -- I am looking to understand what HN thinks of ESOP policies in general.
What are the best ESOP policies that you have comes across at startups? How would you structure it if you were the founder where you work today?
Core Idea: Trying to imagine if these functions would want to use an IDE/SQL workbench like option available inside these apps. Essentially exposing the underlying data stored for my organization. Theory is two fold:
1. Admin dashboards are never adequate 2. Customized dashboards are cumbersome to set up (Eg. Hubspot) 3. Data crunching from SaaS apps is essential for reporting and measuring impact
Something like what Stripe Sigma (https://stripe.com/en-in/sigma) did but for all major SaaS apps. Would you want to use something like that?
