The opportunity pick
Why a usage-priced API micro-SaaS beats every other option for this person:
- Solves a recurring pain (indie devs pay for tooling that saves 10+ hrs/wk)
- Leverages 9 years of distributed-systems knowledge (not transferable to non-technical niches)
- $300 capital covers a Vercel + Postgres + Stripe stack for the first 6 months
- No sales calls — usage-based pricing + SEO + one launch post do all the work
