Employee To Tech Founder, Seeking Advice - I Will Not Promote

Card image cap

Hi

So I've been working as an AI and Data engineer for years now, first as a full tile employee then as a freelance contractor (because that was my baby step into entrepreneurship). But now I'd like to make the serious move and build an actual tech company / startup. It's just me for the moment, I don't want to be by myself building in my corner some code that will end up abandoned, because I believe you don't build a company by coding in your corner. I didn't decide yet on the business idea, but I know I want it to be a tech b2b product (something like Snowflake or Kafka confluent or Known saas and related with ai).

However, from an ex-employee perspective I feel I'm used to do ant work in a big company. How am I supposed to build something serious enough and then sell it to companies, what about all those required soc certs etc...who do I contact... actually I have no idea where do I start and how to make sure it doesn't turn into a home side project... thank you!
