Startup Team — Start-up Business Team Working in Office

NAME OF STARTUP: Waitless

FOUNDED IN (Year): 2025

FOUNDER’S NAME: Piet Terheyden

THE IDEA: What is the problem being solved by your startup / business?:

An idea that keeps you up at night. That you push away but it keeps coming back.

You’re not sure if it makes sense to work on it. Who would even use it? Why has no one done it before? What features are actually important? And who would even be willing to pay for it?

Waitless gives you the tools to get started.

Create a waitlist page that’s ready to collect sign ups – in seconds. Let people climb up the list by inviting friends. Watch your idea go viral through built-in referrals. Get your first users.

THE FOUNDER’S STORY: When and how did you come up with the idea for the business?:

We are fascinated by clever referral campaigns like those that started companies like Clubhouse or Robinhood. Waitless aims to make that easy to implement and affordable for all founders.

WHO IS THE CUSTOMER: What is the typical profile of your target customer? Where would they be located?:

Founders, Investors, Developers, Creators, Influencers, Product Managers, Marketers, E-Commerce Businesses

LESSONS TO SHARE: What 3 key lessons from your startup journey you’d like to share with aspiring entrepreneurs?:

Start simple and focus on your core user, avoid unnecessary complications.

Build a small, experienced team – slow hiring with a good fit is better than fast, entry-level hiring.

Prioritize user research and real feedback, make product decisions based on genuine user needs
