The Founder Who Outsmarted $100M Competitors and Created His Own Exit // Donal Greene // Trustmatic

Donal Greene didn’t raise $100M. He didn’t even follow the startup playbook.Instead, he bootstrapped a lean team, built a better identity verification product, and forced one of his competitor’s customers to acquire him by showing them how broken their current solution was.In this episode of Decelerator, we dive into:

• How Donal built a “Minimum Lovable Product” instead of chasing MVP hype
• Why deep domain knowledge beat VC-funded noise
• What he learned replacing his founding team mid-build
• How a cold outreach turned into a full acquisition
• And what he’d do differently the next time around

This one’s for the builders who’d rather out-execute than out-raise.
