Monday, 9 March, 2026
In this episode of #TheRaaP, Kyle Hall and Kyle Gotzman break down the full build buy rent framework and why skipping this step leads to wasted spend, missed differentiation, and frustration across the business.They walk through:Why build vs buy is an incomplete analysisHow to think about differentiation, durability, and time horizonThe real costs and risks of building softwareWhen acquiring a product makes sense and when it does notWhy renting is often the right answer and when it becomes a trapThe growing “rent and extend” model most teams are actually using todayThe biggest takeaway: there is no universally right answer, but there are very clear wrong ones.
