How important is a moat for a microsaas? Is it ok to do something easy to copy and think of the moat later? My moat would be a lack of interest from other companies to copy me!


If you demonstrate some success and a company with some other kind of unfair advantage (e.g. name brand, distribution) can just copy you once they realize.
