Ive decided to build Hyper X Ultra a startup to help twitter users grow their audience (in terms of following, impressions, engagements) and to help founders find their target audience on X since it isnt exactly easy to do so for niche problems effectively.

@knowRowan Seems to be working, I’m averaging 100-150 replies a day. No real strategy though, I just reply to content I like.

@pravinemani Interesting idea. All though will be hard to get a tweet to blow up with that.

Day 3/30. Built TweetCraft: paste a blog post URL, Claude generates 5 tweet variations: hook, story, stat, contrarian, listicle. Each one comes with a hook score and an honest breakdown of why it would (or wouldn't) stop the scroll. Some sites like Medium block automated access. If so, you can paste the article text directly as a fallback. Check it out here: 30in30-day3-tweetcraft.vercel.app

Before vibe coding: – 6 months to ship – $30K spent on developers – 3 pivots before launch – still not done After vibe coding: – idea on Monday – live on Friday – real users by the weekend the speed changes everything.

@thekevinqi Ngl even I fumbled my first attempt. The problem is that you dont have enough experience as a founder to know what you can pull off and what you cant. Its like Mike Tyson says, everyone has a plan until you get punched in the face 💀

Kevin Qi
Kevin Qi@thekevinqi·
We've burned $75K of our money building this. 🔥 For a long time, it looked like a terrible idea. Now we’re finally close to an inflection point. My name is Kevin Qi, and this is the story of Festa: In early 2024, my cofounder asked me what I wanted to do with the rest of my 20s. I had a great career at Amazon, but deep down I knew I had always wanted to build something of my own. I started coding as a kid just to build things, launched websites that got real users, and even tried starting a company at 17. It failed. But that was the point. So we started meeting weekly, throwing around ideas. Factory Automation. ERP AI. Hardware. Eventually we landed on something crazy: What if AI could coordinate live events in real time? I built the first version during nights and weekends. We tested it at our own event in SF. It worked. More importantly, people instantly “got it.” That was enough conviction for me. I quit Amazon. Then reality hit: • YC rejection • failed marketing • $2K in ads → 0 customers • first wedding sale: $130 We even fumbled a $1K+ deal after messing up pricing. But we kept going. We rebuilt the product and shifted entirely to content + UGC. Over the last 6 months: • hundreds of videos tested • figured out what actually converts • acquisition cost now down to ~$7 • and finally approaching potential repeatable profitability Which brings us to today. We just launched the biggest redesign of Festa yet and for the first time, anyone can try it instantly as a guest to a "fake investor and startup conference event”.

As a developer, Have you ever wondered : You type just "how to" in Google search and it instantly shows full suggestions like "how to make money", "how to cook pasta" etc... There are 8.5+ billion searches globally every day. How is this autocomplete so fast?

@0xPrajwal_ It doesnt search the whole internet. It indexes pages with crawlers and then pulls that data when you search for somn

@Jacob660245 Nah that's super easy to track. All i have to do is give you a specialised link. You'll basically be acting as an affiliate.

@knowRowan yeah sorry, thats what I meant. I have had some other people ask me about doing a revshare model, but I think it might be hard to track which users come to your app from my app.
