The Cloud Startup Saving Founders 40–60% on AWS

from Inspiring Founders Podcast

Handoyo is the founder and CEO of Lyrid, a cloud infrastructure platform he describes as "Airbnb for data centers" — aggregating compute, storage, and networking from local data centers and hyperscalers into one platform, and delivering it to startups and enterprises at 40–60% less than the big providers. In this episode of the Inspiring Founders podcast, we get into the gap Handoyo spent years spotting before launching in 2019, why he didn't fundraise until 2023, and how a mission to help founders in emerging markets like Indonesia and Kenya shapes everything Lyrid does. We also dig into his hard-won advice for engineers-turned-founders, why "you'll never feel ready," and the lesson that your product is less than 10% of what actually makes a company.
