Three months of nights. Stripe is live, first 50 seats are half price for anyone from the club. Roast the pricing page, please.
Killed the 4-step wizard, replaced with a single sample workspace. Counterintuitive lesson: fewer decisions, not more steps, is what moved the number.
// for_who
Solo operators and two-person teams shipping real revenue — not side projects stuck in demo mode.
Focused tools serving niche audiences. Small surface area, sharp positioning, sustainable margins.
Shipping on top of models. Wrangling prompts, evals, latency and the weekly API shift.
Builders who lead with code instead of decks. Roadmaps written in diffs, not slides.
// post_types
Ship notes. What landed today, what broke, what you learned.
Unblock yourself. Stack questions, pricing gut-checks, hiring advice.
Post a flow, a screen, a landing page. Get critique, not compliments.
Announce a new product, version, or pivot. Collect signups, not applause.
First dollar, first 100, first churn reversed. Milestones worth marking.
