@_ceejeey I think this is the trick, just launch the most basic mvp, focus on marketing, after traction then scale and add features.

One of our biggest projects almost became one of our biggest invoices. Last June, a founder approached us with an idea for a marketplace in Dubai. The vision was ambitious, and honestly, the market opportunity caught our attention immediately. As we started discussing the project, the scope naturally grew. Vendor onboarding, inventory management, custom workflows, mobile apps, analytics, reporting. Every conversation added something new, and with every new feature, the development budget kept increasing. Most agencies would have happily quoted the larger number. But the more we studied the market, the more we felt the software wasn't the biggest challenge. The opportunity was huge. The real question wasn't whether the platform could be built. It was whether enough buyers and sellers could be brought together fast enough to create momentum. I still remember telling the client something that probably sounded strange coming from a software company. "Let's cut down the development scope." Instead of building everything upfront, we suggested launching with a lean MVP and putting more of the budget into marketing, partnerships, and growth. The truth is, if this succeeds, nobody will remember how many features version one had. They'll remember how quickly it gained traction. At Beitroot, we've never been interested in chasing hundreds of small projects. We'd rather work with a handful of founders we genuinely believe can build something meaningful. Sometimes the best client relationships start when you make less money today because you believe they'll create something much bigger tomorrow.

Paper is becoming a major contender for the best vector creation tool. Also it’s SVG generations and vectorizations are powered by Quiver’s Arrow 1.1 — let’s go!

@harris Isn’t a crm and fundraising 2 very separate things?

No founder wants another CRM - certainly not for fundraising. So we’re building a disposable, AI-driven fundraising tool. Free, complete, powered by 115k venture rounds, from first principles. Goal: arm founders with a single product to run an exceptional fundraise, without ops debt. Never look at it again. Looking for a few beta testers. Please dm 🤲

@claudeai @ycombinator @MaxJunestrand @WeAreLegora how claude wants lawyers too feel after this post

Interpreting law is one of the oldest jobs in the world. @MaxJunestrand, co-founder and CEO of @WeAreLegora, is bringing it into its next era with Claude. His bet: every new model release raises the tide, and Legora is building the boats for everyone else.

@gregisenberg alr bet let’s make a open source slack

I wish Slack was: - Agent-first - Beautiful to use - Integrated with agents natively so your Hermes or OpenClaw lives inside it - Huddles worked seamlessly and were fun - Built for teams of 1-3, not just teams of 300 - Truly a second brain similar to Obsidian - Searchable without wanting to throw your laptop - Designed around async, not constant interruption - Voice first for mobile - A place where I could see who's working on what right now without asking anyone - Smart enough to know the difference between "I need you right now" and "whenever you get to this" - A workspace where my agent could tap someone else's agent on the shoulder and coordinate without involving either human - Designed so the new hire on day 1 has the same context as the person who's been there 3 years -Something that felt like walking into a room of people building, not walking into a room of people typing - A place where decisions are first-class objects - Able to auto generate SOPs, skills, agents etc from conversation history - Something that rewards deep work instead of punishing it with 47 unread notifications

@aurevisuals that’s fire bro

@mdam10x You’re right that’s so cringe but at least it help us meet other builders like us. Personally I’m trying to start my social media business there’s my website aurevisuals.carrd.co (yes I’m French )

@ycombinator why is every comment on this post ai slop.

Some of the biggest companies of the next decade won't be software businesses. They'll be services companies like insurance carriers, law firms, and tax practices rebuilt from scratch with AI doing most of the work.

@bcardea_ @devfrom_hyd @BrettFromDJ thanks man! I appreciate it a lot. I’ll def ask for advice when needed. 🙏

@mdam10x @devfrom_hyd @BrettFromDJ @mdam10x I just saw you’re 16. Keep grinding bro! Hit me up if you have any questions or need business advice or prayer. At this point in my life, I’ve almost seen it all and I’m always down to help out others.

I built GatherOS entirely with Claude. A month ago I had never opened the terminal, written code, used GitHub, or had any idea how shipping an app worked. Now I have a Mac app being used by hundreds of people. Genuinely the dopest feeling.
