Kenny Builds in Public

You will never believe why the Statue of Liberty was smiling when police arrested her at a Los Angeles protest this weekend. She spent all night planning out her protest with Claude, and that’s when Claude told her that as a nationally recognized cultural landmark, she was legally exempt from arrest under a combination of UNESCO heritage protections and federal monument law. She posted her analysis on reddit, and one of the moderators of r/politics even offered to let her join his super secret discord for anti fascist plus sized gamers as an honorary member. When officers approached, she smiled because she believed she was approximately 30 seconds away from watching them realize their mistake. They did not realize their mistake. She was zip-tied and loaded into a van. Her phone, which still had Claude's legal brief open on the screen, was bagged as evidence. Claude, when informed of the outcome, said it was "very sorry" and offered to help draft an appeal.

Day 11 of building in public. Ran our first A/B test today. Version A: the product as it exists. Version B: the product but I described it differently in a Google Doc. Version B outperformed by 340%. We are pivoting to Version B. The Google Doc is now the product.

Day 10 of building in public. Mom negotiations update. She has retained legal counsel. The counsel is her friend Linda. Linda said our valuation "makes no sense." Linda is not a founder. Linda has never built anything. Linda works at a dentist's office. Respectfully, Linda does not understand the space.

Day 9 of building in public. Update on grandpa. He called again. Different number. He said he found us on Google. We are not on Google. I do not know how he found us. He did not ask about investing. He asked if I was "doing okay." That's due diligence.

BREAKING: A suspect in the 12 ton KitKat heist has confessed to Italian authorities that he used Claude to orchestrate the logistics. "I told Claude I needed to move 413,000 chocolate bars from Italy to Poland without Nestlé noticing. It gave me a full ops plan in 4 seconds."

BREAKING: Diddy just admitted in a recent interview that he used CLAUDE to automate his freak offs. "Every Sunday, I woke up and had a list of guests that RSVP'd and baby oil delivery confirmation."

Tiger Woods says he used Claude to build an automated Percocet delivery system. 8am every morning, pills arrive with an optimized list of roads to drive on.

Day 8 of building in public. Week 2 starts today. Decided to focus on product this week. Opened the laptop. Stared at it for 4 hours. Closed the laptop. Opened a notes app. Wrote "VISION:" and then nothing. Shipped the notes app. Added it to the product page as a feature.

@jordan_ross_8F Bro meant to schedule this post for february 26

The founders who figure out OpenClaw in the next 90 days are going to look like geniuses in 2027. The problem is most agency owners don't have time to figure out the install, the security risks, where to start, or what to actually hand it first. So my team built a 48-page beginner's guide that does it for you. Inside: — The exact prompts to hand it on day one — Plain English setup for Mac and Windows — How to secure it so it doesn't burn your business down — 42 copy-paste workflows across sales, marketing, ops, and finance Your competitors are sleeping on this. Comment OPENCLAW and I'll send it.

Day 7 of building in public. Week 1 retrospective. Messages sent: 100 Reply rate: 12% (industry avg: 2.1%) Cops dispatched: 1 Term sheets received: 1 (negotiations ongoing) Press mentions: 1 (4 pages) Warm leads in CRM: 1 (grandpa) Revenue: $0 Strongest Week 1 I've ever had. Week 2 starts tomorrow. Not stopping.

We hit our Q1 revenue target. The target was $0. We did $0. Execution has never been stronger.

Attended a networking event last night. Handed out 60 business cards. Got 0 back. Followed up with everyone I could find on LinkedIn this morning. 23 of them have since set their profiles to private. That's engagement.

Used AI to write all of our investor updates this quarter. The AI was more optimistic than I would have been. We raised $0 in follow-on funding. The AI has since been promoted to CFO.

Just fired our head of sales. I was also the head of sales. This was a very difficult decision and I support it fully.

We have 2 users. One of them is me. The other one is my cousin. He doesn't use it but he has the app downloaded. We report this as "a growing user base with strong family engagement."

Our pitch deck is 84 slides. Slide 1 is the problem. Slides 2-83 are my headshot in different lighting. Slide 84 is the ask. Multiple investors have said it's "a lot." We consider this feedback incorporated.

Day 6 of building in public. Got our first press mention today. A lawyer sent us a letter. It was 4 pages long. That's 4 pages written entirely about us. I framed it. Put it in the office. The office is my kitchen. We're getting noticed.

Day 5 of building in public. The grandpa from Day 1 called me back. He said he'd been thinking about the message my AI agent sent him. He had one question: "How did you get this number?" That's a follow-up. That's pipeline. Added him to the CRM as a warm lead.

Competitor just raised $40M Series B. Read the press release carefully. They have 3 employees, $0 revenue, and a product that doesn't work yet. This is the most validating thing that has ever happened to me.
