For 18 months we shipped almost nothing. No big features, no splashy launches, no “we just added X” tweets. From the outside it must have looked like we'd quietly gone out of business. We hadn't. We were rebuilding.
v1 of Mewayz solved a real problem — it gave small teams a single login for the basics. But somewhere around 600 customers we hit a wall that didn't show up in any roadmap meeting: the product worked, but the experience of running a business on it didn't.
You could keep your contacts in our CRM. You could invoice them. You could even run payroll. But the system underneath was a federation of modules, not a platform. When you closed a deal in CRM, the quote didn't magically become an invoice. When you hired someone in HR, they didn't auto-provision into the helpdesk. Every module was good. The seams between them were thin glue.
We had built nine products held together with hope and a JSON schema. It was time to build one product.
What changed: the math.
In late 2024 we did the napkin math on what our customers were actually paying for software, in total. Across CRM, HR, accounting, projects, support, marketing — the median team in our base was at around $876 a month, across 7 to 9 separate tools. Some were paying us $58. Most were paying everyone else four times that.
That number was the whole story. It didn't matter how clean our CRM was if the customer was running their finance team on QuickBooks anyway, paying Intuit, copying invoices over. We weren't replacing tools. We were renting them a backup tool.
So we asked the only question that mattered: what would it take for a customer to actually shut off HubSpot, QuickBooks, Gusto, Zendesk, Mailchimp, and Asana — all six, in one afternoon — and run their entire business on us?
The honest answer was: we'd have to rebuild Mewayz.
Not features. The foundation. The way modules speak to each other. The way data flows. The pricing model. The reseller economics. The brand. All of it.
What we did, plainly: v2.
Mewayz v2 is one platform with 150+ modules — CRM, HR, accounting, support, marketing, projects, POS, bookings, AI document generation, LMS, you name it. One login, one bill, one team. From $149/month flat.
The architecture changes that made it possible:
- A unified data layer. Contacts, employees, customers, vendors — one identity object across every module. Close a deal in CRM, the customer record is already in accounting.
- Native cross-module workflows. Quote → invoice → payment → commission → payroll entry. A single button in CRM kicks off the chain. No CSVs.
- Flat pricing. No per-seat tax. No per-employee surcharge on top of payroll. The bill stops being a moving target.
- White-label, properly. Built-in. Stripe-routed 85% payouts. Every client an agency onboards becomes a revenue line, automatically.
What we didn't do.
We didn't try to be the best CRM in the world. There's a perfectly good business doing that, and they cost $90/month for one product. We didn't try to be the best payroll. Or the best accounting. Or the cleanest project board.
We're trying to be the only platform a 10-person team needs. Which means each module is roughly as good as a $50/month standalone version of that tool — not as good as the $500/month enterprise version. For our customers, that trade-off is the entire point.
The math: nine pretty-good things, connected, in one place, for a flat fee — beats six excellent things, disconnected, for ten times the price. Every time.
What we want you to know.
If you've been on v1: the upgrade is included. Your workspace already has v2. Open it; the new modules are waiting.
If you've never used Mewayz: the free plan is real. VCard, Link-in-Bio, three users, no card. We made it real because we want you to try before you switch — because switching is the actual ask. Software is cheap; switching is expensive.
If you're an agency or consultant: look hard at the Agency plan. The white-label reseller economics are the cleanest in the category. Twelve clients at $299/mo nets you ~$32K/year of margin, automatically. We built it because our power users were already asking for it.
And if you've been waiting for a SaaS platform that doesn't lock you in: we don't either. Cancel anytime. 30-day money-back. Export your data on the way out, with a button.
Thanks for sticking around through the quiet months. Now the loud part starts.
