@recap_david LISTING

I built an AI system that creates luxury real estate listing videos for $12 of credits (just from a Zillow link). The average agent pays $200–$800 per property for professional video production. Sell this output to realtors and agents and make $$$. Here's how it works: → Drop listing photos into Calico AI Listing Generator and paste the property URL → The AI researches comps, neighborhood, and the most marketable features → It writes a voiceover script optimized for your target video length → Select an AI voice actor — multiple voices and dialects available → Custom background music generated from a single text prompt → Every photo transforms into a cinematic 4-second video clip → Auto-captioned, combined, and ready to publish. No editing required. The result: every listing gets a professional video tour, not just the $800K+ properties that justify a videographer. 35% more buyer inquiries on listings using these videos. Today, the agents using this have an unfair advantage. Tomorrow, every agent will have it and it'll be table stakes. These windows of opportunity always only last so long... Comment "LISTING" and I'll send you a full video tutorial breaking down how to do this and the tools I'm using (must be following so I can DM you).

@matt_gray_ IG

Instagram becomes a growth machine when you stop posting randomly and start using a system. Here’s what actually moves the needle: • One idea becomes 20 plus posts • Your visuals become instantly recognizable • Comments turn into email subscribers automatically I built a free Instagram Flywheel that breaks down the 3 systems I used to scale to 950,000 followers and $2.3M in revenue. Comment “IG” and I’ll DM it to you (follow me first or I can’t DM you)

Who is building something that’s easy to get excited about? Now that it’s no longer cool, I’m ready to start looking at cutting some angel checks. I’m most likely to fund fintech. I know nothing about AI and am allergic to hype. But I am open to any pitch that fits in a tweet.

@mikulaja Built an entire product line convincing people that changing 1 credit score helps them borrow! 🙃

A credit bureau, possibly America's most-hated industry, decides 2023 is great time to launch undifferentiated neobank:

@Helghardt @mikulaja Getting the right banks to work with is much harder than it looks at any stage. Too many do not realize what "real compliance" means.

@mikulaja Will be interesting to see more fintechs like Mercury shifting to banks directly. This might be a strong trend going forward. Fintechs proved they can build business using BaaS as a stepping stone. Easy pickings for banks that can move fast helping fintechs spin out.

BREAKING: Mass layoffs at banking-as-a-service platform Synapse (hearing at least 130+ people, which is 50% of the company.) One of the company's largest clients, Mercury, gave notice of non-renewal & plans to move directly to Evolve. More as this develops.

@AlexH_Johnson Always us!!!

The best marketer I have ever worked with is looking for a new role. Insanely organized and hardworking. Knows every corner of B2B marketing. Experience in fintech. Would be a great one-woman marketing department or CMO for a small team. Who should she be talking to?

@AlexH_Johnson @heysamir_ merchants save $ and consumers pay more - -solid plan given V/MC will not change in the short term and the money has to come from somewhere. Opinions are always based on motivation.

@heysamir_ In this interview with Michael Sindicich from Navan, I asked him what one thing about fintech he would change if he could wave a magic wand. He said he’d make interchange disappear :) open.spotify.com/episode/0gbBDJ…

1/3 Navan's latest move to allow you to BYOC(ard) to the Navan platform for their software w/o switching cards is ingenious. Because as we've seen, it's really all about data and making it easier for big companies to give it to you is a smart move. techcrunch.com/2023/06/12/nav…

What a messed up person. Should never be able to hold any law enforcement role. TSA at the Detroit airport.

@Farnoosh Remember when fin apps actually added value to a consumer? We do!

i'm reviewing over 50 financial apps and websites for a national magazine. A recurring thought: many mediocre business ideas are getting millions in VC. And we can all guess who the founder are.

@gokulr merge with someone that has PMF and needs funding -- seems simple. We have folks with no business and lots of money from the "stupid days" of the past couple of years and folks with great businesses and no $ 🤔

Many founders who raised large amounts of money ($10m+) in 2020-21 but subsequently realized they don’t have PMF, are going through an excruciating psychological journey right now. On one hand, they feel beholden to employees and investors to keep building, pivoting, doing anything to live up to their perceived commitment to their stakeholders to build an enduring company. On the other hand, they have a sinking feeling that they are just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Their heart just is not in it. There is a deep-felt malaise. The more money a founder has raised, the deeper this predicament. I just had the first such founder return a good chunk of invested capital back to investors, because they couldn’t take the pressure any longer. The relief they felt when they realized investors and employees were on board and 100% supportive of their decision, was palpable. (All employees received solid severance before the company shut down). Founders - ultimately it’s your call, but know that there is a graceful way out. Chasing endless pivots trying to find PMF is a bridge to nowhere. Investors - let’s have the grace and courage to tell founders this option is available to them. The founder told me that the reason they ultimately decided to return the money stemmed from a convo with me several weeks ago, when they told me about their latest pivot, and I told them I’m supportive “as long as their heart is truly in it”. That phrase stuck with them, they introspected and ultimately realized their heart was not in it.
