Will investors let companies do this? Is it going to be OK if you only grow 100% per year because you are living within your means or aiming to become profitable as soon as possible?

If you have a SaaS business, growing 100% Y/Y is just fine until you hit $100m ARR.

Maybe after you pass $10mm ARR. :)

Yes I think this is the rub. I don't think you can expect right now to get funding at the A round if you have only shown 100% Y/Y growth.
