the cinematic launch videos need to stop
people are spending $250K for 100K views, 50 installs and still no one knows what their product does
brand marketing only works when people care about your brand
@yashhq_22 Honestly, most of them would say marketing, but I think the builder should remain the builder and hire a professional or co-founder for marketing.
@jaredsuniverse Partially accurate, but post AI, you had an idea you built it, but 17 paying users aren't going to pay, now founders have to spend more time here than building.
Pre AI: read 40 books on startups. get an MBA. join a big tech company to "learn". save up $200K. quit. spend 6 months writing a business plan. hire a consultant. do market research. present to 12 VCs. get 11 nos. run out of money before the 12th meeting.
Post AI: had an idea at lunch. Codex built it by dinner. posted it before bed. woke up with 17 paying users. now scaling aggressively.
Prediction: @OpenAI is going to go on a run improving Codex (new Super App) that will feel similar to the run that Claude is going on right now. And it will be next month.
Looking for cofounders & early team members 🚀
I'm a full-stack dev building a SaaS + AI + community platform — MVP is ready, and we're about to launch.
What I need:
-Technical cofounder (AI/ML focus)
-Biz/marketing
-Early team members who want to build something real
No corporate BS. Just builders who want equity, ownership, and a chance to shape something from the ground up.
If you've ever wanted to get in early on something — this is that moment.

@darylginn Recently, we got a client, and he sent me the reference of my work posted on someone's profile, and they were charging more than us😂, literally spent 10 minutes explaining to him that's my work.
Block anyone you see posting work that's not theirs.
Even if they credit the author.
They are doing this purely to build a reputation and attract clients with borrowed work.
It's a matter of time before your work is used.
