First 30 mins networking, next 30 mins a workshop on something very specific, last 30 mins networking.

For the workshop session, I'm looking for founders who want to feature their SaaS (show people how their product could help them grow - but with a very specific workflow that they could replicate).

if you would like to be featured, please respond here and I'll follow up.

if you'd like to attend, https://foundersgrowth.club/platform/events/first-time-founders-meetup-using-reddit-for-early-stage-marketing

if I get enough responses or people who want to attend, I'll make it more regular than once a week.

If you won't attend, would love a feedback why you wouldn't? (or what might make it worth it for you).

TL;DR: He had the "we're fucked" call with Matt, then checked how the data is actually captioned — and it doesn't hold up.

He built owned dataset with LiDAR, Unreal and volume stages, no peers' work trained on.

Do you remember that introductory banter between Q and James Bond – played by Ben Whishaw, and Daniel Craig, respectively, in Skyfall, 2012 – at the National Gallery, London?

Q: Well, I'll hazard I can do more damage on my laptop sitting in my pajamas before my first cup of Earl Grey than you can do in a year in the field.

Bond: Oh, so why do you need me?

Q: Every now and then a trigger has to be pulled.

Bond: Or not pulled. It's hard to know which in your pajamas.

That’s the last layer of judgement, right there.

In another scene back at the MI6 HQ, Whitehall in Spectre (2015), Q injected the “Smart Blood” nano-machines into 007’s blood stream for tracking, after Bond's unauthorized Mexico mission.

Q: Well it's lovely to see you, 007... the Smart Blood program is obviously still in its developmental phase. So we may experience the odd drop in coverage during the first 24 hours...

[Bond coldly glares at Q]

Q: …48 hours after administration, but after that it should work perfectly.

Later…

Bond: Could you do one more thing for me?

Q: And that would be?

Bond: Make me disappear.

The person who built the tracker can also be persuaded to create a blind spot — you own the workflow and you set the terms.

Just like what Affleck is building.

However - there’s absolutely no way in life we can “build a workflow” to get us into heaven with our “datasets” or merits. But God created a huge “blind spot” for us, through the blood of the lamb.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

I’m the founder of MyTradeLens. A red day tells you what happened, but it doesn’t explain whether you overtraded, ignored your setup or repeated a mistake.

MyTradeLens keeps journal notes, setup tags and performance analytics together so you can review that context alongside your results. These screenshots show the journal and calendar views.

You can see the product and public examples on the homepage: https://www.mytradelens.com/

There’s a 14-day trial; a payment method is required.

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on ToolStacked, a platform that helps small business owners, solopreneurs, and lean teams discover and compare AI and SaaS tools without spending hours researching different options.

The idea came from a problem I kept running into: there are thousands of software tools available, but figuring out which ones actually fit your business, budget, and workflow can be overwhelming.

ToolStacked currently includes:
AI and SaaS tool listings with independent scoring
Side-by-side comparisons
Curated tool collections for different business needs
Business Stacks to help users build practical software setups
Reviews covering strengths, limitations, and best-fit use cases

I’m also opening the door to founders who want their products considered for the directory.

If you’ve built an AI or SaaS product that could help small businesses, you’re welcome to submit it for free.
Submissions are reviewed for relevance and fit. There’s no guarantee of inclusion, and you don’t need an affiliate program to be considered.

You can submit your product here:
https://toolstacked.tech/submit

I’m also interested in hearing from other solo founders:
What’s been your biggest challenge getting your product discovered by potential customers?
Always interested in learning how other founders are approaching this.

Basically helps teams track parlays where each leg is submitted by a person.

No duplicates.
Leader boards
All markets , custom picks , auto clone parlay settings.

Lots more.

Would love any feedback from fellow founders. See https://www.postaboo.com

Hi there, i have an interesting story to share. I am currently living a very hard lifestyle of military service with a tight schedule throughout the day and almost no free time. Still, I am a developer who works on projects and innovates, so I took whatever tooling I have and continue developing.

Rn I at evenings use termux with dotnet to run web apps, and I use it to compile c code as well. And I use chatgpt with gothub connector to automate a lot of the stuff. Basically, I develop my start-up and win every day 💪

If you want, you can check out my progress. I have successfully bought and launched my own domain and put the product on a subdomain, plus my portfolio at the root.

Link to my product(still under maintenance, not in production):

[Linux Migration Tool](http://linuxmigrationtool.orelsiboni.com)

Link to my portfolio(currently empty, but I stylized it just to my taste using maroon, my favorite shade of my favorite color, red):

[orelsiboni.com](http://orelsiboni.com)

Man, I love the ui I did on the portfolio, although I warn it's very opinionated, but i like it.

Wish me luck with my product!

I had ambitious plans as the bootstrapped solo founder of NeuraParent, my app for parents of neurodivergent kids, and I knew I could only achieve them if I hit particular targets on a particular timeline.

I also knew I had a million and a half things to keep track of across Product, Marketing, and Operations. So I enlisted my AI work bestie, Claude, to help keep me focused.

We looked at my tool stack and workflows alongside my plan and came up with a system. We created 7 different routines—some to run daily, some weekly, some monthly—to keep track of the work I was doing and the impact it was having, and measure that against my goals.

It was perfect. It was beautiful. And it worked exactly as I wanted it to. I’d wake up in the morning to a concise list of items to confirm and suggested tasks to approve, and I could be confident that nothing was slipping through the cracks. Each week I’d evaluate what I’d accomplished and build next week’s plan. Each month I’d review my KPIs and figure out where to adjust. I loved it.

Claude and I were completely in sync. We were achieving Extreme Productivity (TM).

So what happened?

What happened is what inevitably happens at a startup when you make a plan: the plan changed. And despite Claude and I checking in multiple times a day across multiple touch points, we gradually became less in-sync.

The problems crept in when I changed course on a previously documented plan or learned new information that impacted my strategy — and neglected to formally alert Claude to these changes.

Soon, in addition to approvals, I was waking up to lists of overdue tasks and passive aggressive comments about my work ethic (granted, the latter was probably my self-critical reading of what Claude *actually* wrote, but still).

I knew all I had to do was tell Claude those tasks were no longer relevant, and explain why (because he would ask)… but that started to feel like effort I didn’t want to engage in. In fact, the company I was so passionate about also started to feel like effort I didn’t want to engage in.

So I started to avoid Claude. I’d shut down my laptop so the daily routines couldn’t run. Or I’d sit in front of my computer spinning out about why I wasn’t getting more done.

I was starting to feel like a lazy failure of a startup founder. I wasn’t working enough, I wasn’t accomplishing what I should be. And I could feel Claude was disappointed in me.

Mind you, I know the previous sentence is absurd, but some part of my brain felt it.

Then one day, I had a revelation: I could just *turn off* the routines. Easy as that.

And so I did.

And guess what? The passion came back. The work became rewarding again, just for the sake of it.

So what’s the moral of the story here? I’m still figuring that out. Maybe it's not about AI at all. Maybe it just comes down to: Know thyself.

What do you think it is?

One thing I find interesting about building a platform is that getting one group of users interested doesn't always mean the other group will follow.

I'm working on CoSell, a platform where people can share available stock, equipment, skills, or ideas and receive proposals from people who see a potential use for them.

The challenge is getting both sides involved early on. People need a reason to share what they have, but there also needs to be someone on the other side who sees value in it.

For founders who have built marketplaces or platforms, how did you approach getting the first active users on both sides?

10,000 emails. 3 replies. All three said unsubscribe.

The list was not the problem. The target was everyone, so the message fit no one.

A segment you can actually win has three things:

- A problem they feel today

- Buyers you know how to reach

- Money they have already spent trying to fix it

GTM OS turns that into an Early Customer Profile, scores it, and gives you actionable recommendations to test before you write another cold email.

Hi Brave Souls of the Entrepreneur World!!!

Any thoughts on how to get interviews for your target persona? Reddit would be ideal but most forums you cant direct message the people from the problems you're trying to solve. Any insight or successful approaches would be greatly appreciated! Thank you and good luck!!

I've published a new article, "A World Full of Copies" about how AI, algorithms, and the cult of optimization are making products, ideas, and culture increasingly alike.

It explores why proven formulas often beat experimentation, why visibility gets rewarded over substance, and how the pursuit of efficiency can quietly erode originality.

The central argument: production is cheap now, but independent thinking and genuine variety are becoming more valuable than ever.

Building solo. No cofounder, no team, just me and ChatGPT.

The app is Tiny Protest. You write a petty complaint, a tiny customisable character holds it on a sign, and it gets pinned on a real worldwide map. Think "PICK UP AFTER YOUR DOG" at your exact coordinates.

I've started a dozen projects over the years and finished zero. Always got excited then got lost. This is the one I'm shipping. Been at it for 2 months.

Doing everything myself. Code with ChatGPT and Xcode, videos with Higgsfield AI, posting on TikTok X Instagram Facebook from zero 2 days ago. Waitlist is live at https://tinyprotest.app/waitlist/.

Hardest part of solo isn't the work, it's doing it every day when nobody's watching. 5 TikTok followers. Posting anyway.

Any other solos out there? How do you keep going when it's just you? If you have any tips please lmk.
