Building the same admin panel for every new app is a cost most of us just accept, so "no schema changes" is the line I'd lead with, since the first worry anyone has is handing a new tool the keys to a production database. Your warmest prospects are people already shopping for this: those asking about Retool pricing, comparing Forest Admin, or opening issues on self-hosted admin projects. This week I'd find 15 small SaaS teams on Postgres in those threads and offer to connect a read-only replica with them on a 20 minute call, which also gets you past the security question faster than any docs page. Watching which part they keep using, the AI dashboards or the CRUD actions, tells you which one to put on the homepage. So far, are trial users coming for the analytics side or the admin side?
