@TomBilyeu Honestly, they read nice but if there's no validation mechanism for the AI to iterate on, these are just a more elaborated version of "make no mistakes".
THE RESEARCHER
Job: Find the customer pain. Validate it before you build.
Most founders skip this. They build something cool and try to convince people they need it. That's how you go broke.
Prompt:
"Act like a world-class researcher who meticulously checks their work. List the top 5 urgent and painful problems faced by [target customer], with supporting evidence from Reddit, Amazon, Facebook, and other real sources. For each problem, show me the exact language people use to describe the pain, where they're already trying to solve it, and what existing solutions are failing them."
If people aren't already complaining about it, the idea is dead.
If I sold my company tomorrow, I'd build my next multi-million dollar business in 90 days using Claude.
Here's the exact 5-person AI team I'd hire on day one. Steal every prompt.
@vasuman Yeah, and trigger those remote agents! (Sarcasm)
I politely disagree. Now, more than ever, you don't need a big group of people in the same room to make decisions. Async collaboration is just fine! Get the best talent wherever they are!

Have a $30m net worth with 15m currently liquid via secondary.
Why are more people not doing this
@HazelAppleyard Infinite money glitch. You get a great body and financial freedom. Can easily do 300 per day, breaking in 3 blocks of 100, or even more if focused. That's ~1 year do reach 1M.
Request for startups:
I want an AI agent that plugs into my slack, email, Attio, LinkedIn, granola, etc.
