>> I find it hard to believe they're actually using all these tools on a regular basis.

We do rely on all mentioned tools, though for some tools, we only use them occasionally due to their nature (e.g. we don't need to visit Pulley every day to manage equities).

>> Excalidraw (???)

Oh, Excalidraw Plus

>> Their docs appear to be using Docusaurus which comes with Algolia out of the box, so ???

The Algolia part is correct, while we are Vue based, so we built our own and also implement some special markdown syntax to facilitate tech writing https://www.bytebase.com/docs/document-write-guide

>> The R&D team of just over 10 members releases a new version every two weeks, and each version has 100 to 150 PRs submitted.

It's an open source project https://github.com/bytebase/bytebase. And most are small PRs. Here is our review guide line: https://github.com/bytebase/bytebase/blob/main/docs/code-rev...




You might want to try Appsmith for the internal tools use-cases. It's open source with a big community and a lot of features that are part of the OSS edition that you'd end up paying quite a bit for once your Retool credits run out (I work there).

Also, hear you on Paddle. Fees are quite high, but we found them easier to set up than Stripe.


As a tech veteran, I can only say I'm surprised the list is as short as it is. You don't have a CRM? I think the way a product like Hubspot gets it's mitts into so many startups is because it offers free tiers of a lot of marketing tools (CRM, analytics, email marketing, forms).


We went through HubSpot trial and didn’t convert at the end.

1. We don't have a sales team. 2. Our content is all markdown based and stored in Git, so we can't use their CMS and analytics.

We end up managing CMS in a table.
