watched my dev build a full product with claude backend, auth, UI buildings not that hard anymore growth is we might build the tool that solves that next

we were losing $30k+/mo in failed trial payments so we killed the “free” in free trial and made it $1 to activate 2 days later: conversions up failed payments down small tweak > massive delta one tweak can be the line between a product that bleeds and one that prints

we're hiring a full stack AI engineer at 24labs you need to know how to build AI apps - front to back not just clean UI not just calling APIs actual products that plug into models if you need a spec doc, this isn’t for you. email us at [email protected]

you start a company with this vision: hire killers build something great change the game reality: your product flops the markets dead your smartest people quit you’re low on cash customers churn you’re not special barrier of entry is the struggle

i kept seeing the same thing: - creators and brands guessing their way to growth - copying tactics that they dont understand - wasting hours chasing “what works” so we’re building the thing that does it for you: - spies on top creators - decodes exactly what they’re doing

in 2023, i dropped out of college in the first week not because I had some million dollar side hustle - i just knew college wasn't for me started an online tutoring business in high school. Flopped. built an AI cheating detection tool in college. Got contracts. Lost them all.

the message doesn’t matter if the delivery is wrong different people need different words to hear the same thing

update: trials started converting today - 100% conversion rate - fewer trials started - more money made no surprise. a small price filters real v. fake intent

every time we thought we needed better ops we actually just needed better focus some of our worst decisions came from trying to act like a "real company" surprisingly, we moved faster when we stopped pretending we were one

users default to the brand they remember mindshare is embedded preference

the most powerful leverage Ive found isn’t code, content, or capital It’s taste. taste decides: – what gets built – who gets hired – what gets killed early speed without taste just gets you to the wrong outcome faster

in ny for the next for a couple days

good eats + good meets

having a high k-factor is massively underrated make your product shareable in the first minutes of use optimize that before anything else growth gets easier when your users do the work

people love talking about doing things at “scale” but if the thing doesn’t work, scale just makes it fail faster figure out what works first then make it bigger

happy saturday! fail quicker

its actually crazy how much anxiety comes from sitting still

“we could scale if we just had capital” ok. here's the capital.
