Seeing how unhappy friends and other developers we talked to were with existing products, e.g., Jenkins. That, plus realizing that more and more tools got moved to the cloud (that was 2010/2011) let us conclude that people would prefer something like Codeship over whatever they were using back then.

Additionally, to us, it seemed obvious that CI/CD is the future. In the dev community, everybody was talking about how Etsy or Netflix was doing it, but outside of those few examples, a lot of teams were still struggling a lot with it.
