Neither should you! You rock @milindmishra_ bhai 🔥

got access to @ThineAI just now and it’s already given me the best advice on what to do next for @AskKaval every night before bed I brainstorm with Claude/ChatGPT and not once did either point out to look at this direction for PMF or Validation i’m gonna be actively using thine to help me navigate startup life as a solo founder. maybe they were not kidding with the “cofounder” tag afterall 😅 gg @pratyush_r8

They laughed at the iPhone in 2007. No keyboard, no chance. Steve Ballmer called it the worst product ever. Jobs and Ive shipped it anyway. Every breakthrough needs a partner who believes in the crazy idea as much as you do. @ThineAI is that partner - an AI that actually knows you, learns your context, and grows with you. Your next leap shouldn't happen alone. Join the waitlist, thine[dot]com

Hosted a stargazing event at twin peaks last night with @smallest_ai. people showed up, saturn showed up, the vibes were immaculate ✨ thank you @lilyyang169 & @adri_guha for pulling this together 💫🔭 @kamath_sutra | @endu_29 | @pratyush_r8 | @agihouse_org | @BetterCapital

3 things decide if your product wins or dies. AI can't help with a single one. I've been building & growing products for years & the longer I do this the more I realise, things that make a product win haven't changed. AI made building faster but that was never the hardest part. You need to crack 3 moments to convert someone who doesn't know and care you exist into a customer for life. First, nobody gives a shit about your product but you need to get their attention. Make them drop everything else they are doing and look at you and what you are building. It's freaking hard and just making an awesome product doesn't solve it. You need to create something so wild, funny, interesting that makes people so excited that they have to show it to their friends. That's a creativity problem and AI is unlikely to come up with an idea that makes someone screenshot it and send it to 5 people. AI doesn't do creativity. It does average. At @ThineAI we measure marketing by one question. Would someone share this unprompted? @adri_guha @kavyaonx @Muskkksksk test 10 crazy ideas every week. Most flop. But when one hits it travels further than any ad budget ever could. Second, the aha moment. Cool now you have got someone's attention but what if 95%+ of these folks lose interest and drop off even before the product clicks for them. The next challenge is to identify this aha moment and ruthlessly cut down any steps, product features that does not contribute to and prolongs the journey to the aha moment. Most products never get this right. They show you 14 features before you've understood one. Every extra step loses 10 to 20 percent of people. That's a clarity problem. AI can't figure out what your aha moment is. You either understand your product deeply enough to find it or you don't. At Thine our aha moment is when the product surfaces a real insight that's valuable to a user. Not generic. Not templated. Something that makes you feel like "this thing knows me." Getting a stranger there fast is what is keeping @pratyush_r8 @siddsax @endu_29 @reubendasx and me up at night. Finally, you would want to keep them forever because getting users is pointless if they leave. Your product has to be simple enough for day one users and powerful enough for year one users. Most people think that's a tradeoff. It's not. You build the powerful layer first. Then assemble a simple experience on top. When users outgrow the simple layer you give them access to what's underneath. They never leave. That's a design problem. AI can't architect your product for you. You have to understand the problem space yourself. At @MerlinAIByFoyer, this is P0 for @milindmishra_ @shubhcodes and @shahbaz_cse as we add agentic capabilities for power users while keeping the experience dead simple for someone who's never touched an AI tool. So here's the thing nobody wants to hear. AI made building 10x easier. The 3 things that decide if anyone uses what you built are still just as hard as they've ever been. Marketing is a creativity problem. The aha moment is a clarity problem. Retention is a design problem. AI is 0 for 3. The people who were winning before AI are still winning. The rest of us are just shipping faster to an audience that isn't there yet. What's the one that is keeping you up at night? -brainstormed with @ThineAI

@ChangChen_CC @typelessdotcom Fresh narrative! how? were they the OG wisprFlow? ( fellow is just curios here :P )

The influx of competitors is the best proof that Typeless's marketing was a massive success. Typeless @typelessdotcom is an incredible product. In a crowded speech-to-text market, they sold a completely fresh narrative: "Speak, don't type." When we first partnered with them, the market wasn't ready to replace typing with voice. Our job was to build awareness and trust from scratch in an untapped market. So instead of just paying influencers for basic shoutouts, we focused on seamless use-case integration. We even got MrBeast to embed this use-case right into his videos. The result? Once users bought into the concept, they naturally became our best advocates, sparking a viral loop online. Growth isn't just throwing money at ads, it's about finding true Product-Channel Fit and letting authentic voices amplify your story.

I love how good a job the growth team at @ThineAI @pratyush_r8 is doing! You guys are superb :)

@pratyush_r8 @tankots WisprFlow in Thine 🤩

Hey @tankots I hate typing. My product’s users hate typing. And we all love Wispr Flow. The problem is.. not every user of ours knows Wispr Flow exists, and not all of them use it on mobile. Plus the iOS friction makes adoption even harder. So here's my deal: Can you offer Wispr as an API service? We'd integrate it natively into @ThineAI as a speech-to-text input mode alongside our text bar. Happy to pay on a per-API-call basis. Wispr is the best in the game at this. I genuinely don't want any other provider powering this. Let's partner on it. And honestly, this could be huge for you. Opening Wispr as a service layer would enhance UX across a ton of apps. Think of it as Wispr embedded everywhere, not just as a standalone tool. So Tanay, do we have a deal? :) (Drafted using Wispr, obviously.)

"Cool, you cloned my face. Now clone what keeps me up at 3 AM." At Thine we solve the hard part head-on.
