The SaaSFort Design Council

A small, named group of security & compliance leaders who set the build order with us: direct founder access, co-prioritised roadmap, design-partner status. Not a beta. Not a discount. A seat at the table.

8 seats only. Application reviewed individually. Selected members get a private checkout link.

What a seat gives you

  • Biweekly 30-min call with the founder

    A standing line to the person building the product. Your posture challenges, your roadmap priorities, discussed directly, every two weeks.

  • Co-prioritised roadmap input

    Council members vote on what ships next. You are not asking support for a feature. You are setting the build order with us.

  • Named co-development & reference rights

    Be credited as a founding design partner. Optional named reference / advisory recognition: status that compounds for you and for us.

  • First access to everything

    New checks, frameworks, and the Trust Page surface land with the Council before general release. You shape them before anyone else sees them.

What we ask in return

  • €29/month

    A recurring commitment that filters for intent. This is not a discount. It is the price of a seat at the table.

  • Candid, recurring feedback

    Show up to the calls. Tell us what is wrong. The Council only works if members are honest operators, not spectators.

  • A named reference when it fits

    When the product earns it, let us credit you. Mutual: your name carries weight, and so does ours.

We review every application individually. Selected members receive a private €29/mo checkout link. No public self-serve.

Who's a fit, and how we choose

Who is the Council for?
Operators with real say on security and compliance decisions at a B2B SaaS, fintech, or MSP. Typically a Geschäftsführer / CISO / Head of Security, or the rank-#2 owner who actually runs the practice. EU/DACH bias because that's where SaaSFort earns its keep first.
Who is it not for?
Tire-kickers, agencies looking for a discount, students, or anyone who can't commit to the biweekly call. The Council only works if every seat shows up. If that's not you right now, a standard subscription is the better fit.
How do you choose the 8 members?
Two filters: buyer-fit (you actually call security/compliance shots at a recognisable firm) and shape-fit (the roadmap input you'd push us on is something we can credibly act on). We aim for a small spread of segments: fintech, B2B SaaS, MSP. The room debates real trade-offs instead of agreeing.
Is this a discount on the product?
No. The €29/mo is the price of a seat at the table. It pays for influence, not for cheaper scanning. Council members also get standard subscription access included, but the value sits in the roadmap input, the founder line, and the named co-development status, not in the SKU.
What's the time commitment?
One 30-minute call every two weeks with the founder, plus async roadmap-vote pings (5 minutes). About 1.5 hours a month. Cancel anytime. Your seat opens to the waitlist if you do.

Just want the product, not the table?

The Council is for operators who want to shape what gets built. If you just need scans, alerting and compliance evidence, a standard subscription (from €9/mo) is the right fit.
