Africa's restaurant sector is a $50 billion engine.
No centralized reservation system.
No unified digital ordering.
No real data on customer behavior.
That's not a problem. That's the opportunity.

AI UGC

[J. Braide @braide_j]

Needed a way to quickly save ad inspiration from Pinterest
Bookmarks suck honestly.

Whipped this up in 10 mins
So should we launch?

[J. Braide @braide_j]

We all know AI is cooking, not new news...
But it really is a game changer for generating African Stock images.

We literally cannot find these types anywhere on the internet.

So this will be used for Fb Ads, what are your thoughts on the output?

Nano Banana generated this.

If your platform or saas is experiencing slow down after a few 100 customers or your platform is transaction heavy

You most likely don't need more CPU, You might need to focus on optimization.

I increased performance by 99.4%
3824 queries to 23. without extra resources

AI Image generation is so good now.

Generating some "stock images" for my ad.

What do you think?

@WilsonMatthew_ Everybody can build a decent product, but a decent product is rarely what makes the difference

Some products you just don't start

If you've ever used iLovePDF, then you should be grateful to Marco Grossi, the brain behind one of the most successful websites ever created.

Interestingly, Grossi got the idea to create the website, which now has over 30,000 visitors every minute, in 2010 when he needed to cut and paste a PDF.

He realized that it was a very simple task and he could actually create it himself, and he did.

The website has since been free for over 99.9% of users, and it generates 80 to 90% of its revenue from 0.1% of users who pay $4 per month to use premium features.

Grossi rarely grants interviews as he prefers being low-key and leading a normal life.

He is a graduate of Multimedia and Photography at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, Spain.
