Been working on Webatlas’ pitch. Here is what I landed on:

Webatlas reveals the tools and technology behind any website.

It is the perfect tool for web sales and marketing professionals to find new customers.

[Salil Sethi @salilsethi]

Webatlas Update Time! 🚀

Quick background before the weekly update.
Webatlas is your go-to tool for uncovering the tech behind any website.

Built for marketers, sales teams, and tech enthusiasts, we created it to make web intelligence more accessible and affordable.

Update
This week, I spent time on three things:

1. Customer discovery: Sharpened the ICP for Webatlas.

2. Pricing research: Received some excellent feedback on the drawbacks of running lifetime deals. So, have decided to provide generous launch specials, but no lifetime specials.

3. Product work: Worked on making the backend and crawler infrastructure more robust.

Overall, a good week for Webatlas. If you have not checked it out, please check out the URL in the next tweet.

Big shoutout to @mubashariqbal and @1dolinski for giving feedback on Webatlas and helping me do customer discovery 🙏

Several months ago, I, along with a couple of other friends, started working on a new product. That product is https://t.co/iBtYr7nh6N —a modern, user-friendly, and more affordable alternative to BuiltWith.

I’m excited to share some progress with you all! 🚀

We now have hundreds of active crawlers working tirelessly to identify technologies across the web.

So far, we’ve crawled over 25 million pages, and the insights we’re gathering are helping us refine https://t.co/e78l7w4FCm every day.

It’s been an incredible journey, balancing development with constant iteration based on the data we're collecting.

Our focus remains on delivering the most accurate, affordable, and useful web intelligence out there.

Would love your feedback on the landing page or the product itself!

As always, building in public means sharing the ups and downs, so stay tuned for more updates, and feel free to drop any thoughts or questions below! 💬

🚀 The #1 reason most startups fail? Lack of sales. 💔

It’s not the product, team, or funding. It’s SALES.

Without sales, even the best ideas fizzle out. Startups need a way to find and reach their market. Quickly.

That’s where the struggle begins. Where do you find leads? How do you know who’s interested?

As a founder, I felt this pain firsthand.

So I decided to tackle it head-on and create a solution that could make finding leads easier and more effective.

Introducing https://t.co/0Xke0Zmn8J.

WebAtlas helps you identify companies using your competitor’s tech or complementary tech to your product.

With millions of websites indexed, it’s a treasure trove for finding leads. Fast.

Imagine knowing exactly which companies are primed for your solution. Instantly finding prospects who need what you’ve built.

That’s the power of https://t.co/0Xke0Zmn8J.

I’m excited because WebAtlas doesn’t just give data.
It turns insights into actionable leads.
It gives direction to founders.

This is one of the most technically challenging and ambitious projects I’ve ever worked on, with an enormous database and hundreds of servers to support it.

This robust infrastructure ensures that founders can rely on https://t.co/0Xke0Zmn8J to find the leads they need.

For founders, this is a game-changer.

A tool to finally crack the code on sales.
To stop struggling and start growing.

Join us at https://t.co/0Xke0Zmn8J and let’s turn your startup dream into reality. 💼✨

@salilsethi An educational ad that relies on fear to make the point.

[Salil Sethi @salilsethi]

‼️ Watch Deutsche Telekom's striking ad, which suggests:

- Each 'like' & 'share' creates your AI clone! 🌐🤖

- Your shared memories might compromise your privacy & security 😔

Is this Deutsche Telekom ad cautionary or educational?

New York City will start using robots to help patrol the city this summer.

These dogs will be remotely controlled by an operator.

Here is a video of the press conference that showcased the robots in action a couple of months ago.

Plus, several eye-catching Midjourney images and more.

Cannot wait to have the issue in your inbox.

[Salil Sethi @salilsethi]

🚨 Most AI newsletters are simply advertisements that are trying to monetize you.

I spent ~20 hours last week analyzing the top 10 AI newsletters by publicly reported subscription counts and found the following interesting insights:

1. Average words in a newsletter: 737

2. Content breakdown (word percentage)
🗞️ Curated content (news, product launches): 52%
This is regurgitated content.

💰 Sell something (e.g., ad slots - "book ad slot"): 18%
Asking readers to book advertising slots - main slot, secondary slot, product promotion, etc.

Basically, selling their own newsletter service to you.

📢 Promoted content: 15%
Promoting products that have paid them $$$

🙌 Welcome message: 14%
Intro message on what is included in the newsletter

Often times the promoted links are NOT marked as sponsored. They are simply top links 🤣

🤔 New insight: <1%
Doing real analysis, coming up with new insights or take on AI.

Unfortunately, almost no one has this information.

👉 If you are subscribed to any AI newsletters...

Just open the recent ones and see if you are learning anything new or just being "monetized". 🙃

[Salil Sethi @salilsethi]

Why does it feel that newsletter quality is inversely proportional to newsletter size?

I've seen so many AI newsletters start with good content, gain momentum, grow their email list, and then start sharing the same regurgitated junk.
