I built 3 products in 3 months. Two have paying users. One didn't get a single signup. Today I'm archiving RunwayBot. ❌ Everyone celebrates the wins but rarely acknowledges the failures. I'm celebrating this one. Every product that doesn't work gets you closer to the one

The more I ship the less I want to talk about it nowadays. Feels like a distraction. I know ‘building and audience’ can be helpful, but if I don’t have something interesting to share, I’d rather be quiet at the moment 😅

🤯 I have just finished building an agent first product No human signup needed Agent can manage everything via API or CLI My customers are agents now 🤖 If you’d like to try it reply with ‘roboto’ and I will DM the link 👍🏻

Just realised that I basically have been using my own version of Garry Tan’s GStack. Especially the adversarial challenge reviews with Codex. I think I might just switch to using GStack with everything baked in though!

Shipping fast is a superpower, but don't be fooled into thinking it's the only way serious founders operate. Sometimes the right move is to sit with the architecture, stress-test the edge cases, and launch something that actually holds up.

I totally understand scaling and needing to make adjustments, but I really wish there was a bit more transparency around these limits. Feels like a blackbox.

Brings back good memories…except we used to have to bring our PCs together in the same place for a LAN party 🤣 Love this!

I quietly launched my 4th startup in 4 months a few days ago. Keeping the momentum even if I don’t post as much lately 💪🏻 Super proud of it 📧 P.S. I also killed one of my startups that had zero paid users!
