It's a secret.
lol yep, you don't publicize your secret sauce, you can do NDAs for your employees and partners. We were a small company and had a vested interest in the products success so no one squealed, but NDAs and severance agreements can assist even if they don't prevent it 100% but still, a better chance than public information
I’ve read about manufacturing different parts of your product at different manufacturers and assembling at your plant, so no one knows the final product or who are they working for, and it’s more difficult to copy, but that method seems kinda difficult for a startup.
