@JayHoovy @ryandeiss Love your energy brother. Would love to connect. We’re building a tech company from Slovakia, backed by angels globally. Building the first unicorn out of Slovakia.

Today is Day 3 of trying to get my $40M company to the $100M level. We had one HUGE WIN, but also several L’s 😂 The win? @ryandeiss - one of my favorite entrepreneurs, used our product and just texted me: "This is the first AI tool I've demoed that just worked. It's like hiring a truly great employee who adds value on day one." Here's what happened 👇

@Tancrededib Ex pro athlete that simply can’t stop. I’ve proven my relentlessness, it’s my biggest founder advantage. My conviction and drive runs in my blood.

we don't expect you to build a company in 8 weeks when we invest, we're betting on YOU to succeed whether that takes 1 year or 10 give me 1 reason to invest in you

@DropAPinShow I must say, we have good ones in Slovakia 🇸🇰

What country has the largest average breast size?

@RKRigney @speedrun Let’s go, wish luck to everybody!

For everyone about to submit your @speedrun application literally 30 seconds before the deadline... This is what happens after you apply:

@Techstars We’re building a software and technology that transforms every smartphone into a biometric health sensor. Starting with sleep, potential unlimited. Any camera system on earth can become a biometric intelligence layer around physiology.

If you're a founder building right now, introduce yourself. 👇

@cormachayden_ Let’s go brother

big water is trying to silence us

@omarontape @fdotinc @officialvlogit @speedrun Let’s go brother. Let’s connect.

moved to SF less than 2 months ago. In that time: - Got into @fdotinc Canopy - Grew waitlist to over 62k for my app @officialvlogit - Brought on another 1k beta testers - Grew social media following to over 210k on IG/TikTok releasing next week. next step: @speedrun! @andrewchen @Chen @nazzari

@hthieblot @drgurner Lived person has a different kind of energy I believe. More grounded. More humble. If you’ve gone through pain like I did through my founder journey, that is hard to fake. That’s what I’ve observed with the people I respect the most and who have gone through pain.

@drgurner What are the best questions in an interview to measure grit ?

"Hardship does not come to bury a man. It comes to measure him." - Epictetus The world is filled with those who are buried. The only way forward is through... Be proudly measured by your Grit. Bold actions, pushing forward, never stopping.

@boardyai Turning any camera into a biometric health sensor

Sell me your product in one sentence I will rate it out of 10.

Everyone loves the idea of being a founder until: • You’re 5 years in & growth story is dead • Your co-founders have all left. • You have 45 days of runway & 20 families to feed. • Investors are ghosting you. • Your competitors are now 20x u Yet you still have to believe.

I want to fund as much hardtech as possible this year. Who is building the coolest shit? Bonus for images/videos

@hthieblot Translating your psychology into health data using your smartphone camera

Can this new X algo find incredible builders/founders? If that’s you tell me what you are building.

@annamlulis @elonmusk Yes, this is such a needed message. Much love.

Normalize this. @elonmusk is the richest man in the world, yet consistently lives out his pro-child beliefs by bringing his own children into his daily work. He is walking around Beijing China with his son Lil X Kids aren’t burdens—they’re the future.

@samuel_spitz Replit changed my life

Got the chance to speak at SaaStr this year Was a blast to get to talk about Replit for prototyping, internal tools, and slides Will be back tomorrow at 11:30 if anyone wants to join!

EWOR, I’m ready. Ready to become the first Slovak founder in the EWOR circle. Ready to build one of Slovakia’s first unicorns. And most importantly, ready to prove that world class companies can be built from Slovakia.

@hthieblot Hi Hubert! Jason Butcher just joined us as an angel. We’re building a biometric intellinge and health platform that turns any smartphone into a biometric sensor and we’re starting with sleep for HR and HRV. I think you would find it cool!

The next billion-dollar founder has 9 followers on X rn. I will find you & fund you!

The fundraising fell through. The launch flopped. The CTO just left. The big pilot isn’t converting. In the moment, it feels apocalyptic. In 5 years, this is how you’ll tell the story: “And then it worked out, better than I planned.” Trust the process. Keep executing.

@hthieblot First they think you’re crazy. Later they think you’re a visionary.

Imagine looking back and realizing you were crazy enough to quit your job, burn through your savings, max out your cards, lose sleep for years, and ignore everyone who said it would never work… …and somehow you were right.

@hthieblot I can’t imagine being anything else than a builder and a founder.

We all became founders for different reasons, to break free, to push limits, to solve what others call impossible. But at the core, it’s the same fire: we want to build things that genuinely improve people’s lives.
