Ask HN: What is the cheapest toolstack you can use for a bootstrapped startup?

My question is about how to minimize the costs aggressively, until you close a deal or validate the idea. Before that, ideally I only want to spend my own time but no (or very little) money.

So here is what I found so far - Domain from namecheap.com - Business email from Zoho Mail which is free up to 5 accounts - SSL from Let's Encrypt - Landing page from Wix (if you do not upgrade immediately, they give you 50% off after a day or two)

I am wondering if there is a way to minimize the spend on AWS, OpenAI and other stuff.

Please share your ideas. Thanks
