@marclou a nice try.
if robots could sync with airport data and let the flight know that a specific passenger is on the way, that would be pretty useful—especially when the flight is about to take off.
The consistency alone is already impressive. Most people don’t even make it to launch, and even among those who do, very few stick with it for more than a year.
i just hit $37,000/month on my solo startup, so now i can call it a success i think
but it got me wondering... how many times have i failed so far? and what's my success/hit rate?

@alexcooldev Building the app you need becuase you already know the problem is real, and there’s a good chance others share it too.
It doesn’t replace validation, but it improves the odds.
Building only for money makes the long marketing and iteration process much harder to sustain.
If AI is already shaping buying decisions…
Then the real question is:
Is your product part of the answer?
or just part of the background noise?

AI doesn’t rank products.
It chooses what to recommend.
And most SaaS founders don’t realize:
they are already being compared — just not included in the conversation.
This is exactly what we built Spotaq for.
It scans how AI systems describe your product, then shows:
where competitors win
where citations are missing
what actions will improve visibility
