Built lean before lean was fashionable
We’ve built useful software against much bigger odds.
Nick Horob and Jaryd Krishnan built Harvest Profit into a leading farm-management software business with a six-person team and $280,000 in outside funding. They competed with companies employing 10 to 20× more people and, in some cases, raising roughly 100× more capital before John Deere acquired Harvest Profit in 2020.
Nerd Out carries forward the same belief: stay close to the problem, use technology well, and build genuinely useful products and businesses without a bloated team or budget.
