At just 19, Edoardo Daves is attempting what many seasoned founders struggle to achieve—building a scalable SaaS startup while still in university. From a rural town in the Italian Alps, Daves has gone from experimenting with automation tools as a teenager to creating FlowSpark, an AI-driven platform designed to help high-ticket B2B companies fully automate their client acquisition process.
“I’ve always been obsessed with time,” he says. “Not just managing it—multiplying it. AI was the obvious path.”
The journey began at 17, when Daves started freelancing in marketing and lead generation. He quickly noticed a pattern: business owners were buried in repetitive work that could be streamlined. FlowSpark aims to change that by combining AI workflows with no-code infrastructure, automating everything from prospecting and personalized outreach to nurturing and follow-ups.
The goal is massive scale without the usual overhead. FlowSpark can send up to 2,250 highly personalized emails per day, with an average 5% booking rate, translating to 3,400 qualified appointments per month for niche B2B firms.
“What I’m building isn’t just another hype-driven AI tool,” Edoardo says. “It’s a digital infrastructure—something businesses can plug into and instantly free up time, resources, and energy.”
Unlike many early-stage founders chasing funding first, Daves is focused on building a lean product and validating real demand. He already has a waiting list of beta users eager to test the system, and he’s documenting the journey through his YouTube channel and Instagram, where he shares lessons learned along the way.
In the short term, Daves wants to scale FlowSpark to $1M in annual recurring revenue while keeping the team small and efficient. Longer term? “Freedom, family, impact,” he says. “I want to build meaningful businesses, and surround myself with people who do the same.”
FlowSpark’s beta is set to launch soon, with early adopters receiving special pricing and direct support from the founder himself.
