I'm building https://t.co/HiJhppkCGo.
Software for African tailors and the customers who order from them.
Here's what it is, where we are, and where you come in. ๐งต
If you're a tailor in Nigeria and want to try it โ visit https://t.co/HiJhppkCGo.
If you've lived this story as a customer โ follow along.
Something had to be built.
Where we are:
โ Tailor side: live and fully functional
๐ง Customer side: built, being integrated with backend
I'm building this in public, sharing what I learn as I go.
We've built fintech. Healthtech. Agritech. Edtech.
But one of the largest informal industries on the continent has been completely forgotten by technology.
Tomorrow I'll share what I'm building about it.
When something goes wrong we blame the tailor.
But almost any of us would lose measurements and miss deadlines if we tried to run a small business this way.
This is a management problem. Not a tailoring problem.
The Agbada that wasn't ready the morning of the wedding.
The kaftan that came back two sizes off.
The "it'll be ready by Friday" that became three weeks of unread WhatsApp messages.
If you've ordered bespoke in Nigeria, you know.
Different tailors. Different shops. Different cities. Same story every time.
At some point you stop blaming the person and start asking what's actually broken.
๐จ Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.
Taught by the people who built it.
Free. No registration. No paywall.
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.
Watch it and bookmark it now.
