About Scoutflo (http://www.scoutflo.com">www.scoutflo.com) :
There are tons of open source products being developed today. However, very few reach the level of scale and distribution they deserve. At Scoutflo, we aim to solve this problem of discovery, distribution and frictionless onboarding of open source products for businesses, by building a platform to connect open source product companies to businesses who are in need of them, but don't know where to start, how to choose, how to onboard and what needs to be done post onboarding. The platform will also enable rapid customization at scale for all the open source products listed on our platform, based on the requirements of businesses looking to buy their plans and onboard them on a customized plan. At Scoutflo, we are extremely excited to solve this problem, because we believe that the next chapter in SaaS disruption and penetration to smaller businesses will be via the open source market. The open source community, if given a solid platform, can leverage the power of worldwide collaboration to unlock huge value in the SaaS economy, not just for large enterprises, but also for small and medium businesses who are looking for cheaper alternatives to enterprise SaaS tools, without compromising on quality.

We are on a mission to make Commercial Open Source (COSS) mainstream!
