I'm frustrated with LinkedIn content reach. I've spoken to so many founders who feel hopeless about it.

And then I saw this experiment that indicates a potential wild gender bias. I've had it.

So we're going to study this deeply. Help us 👇🏽

Software engineers invented AI for one sole purpose, to do front-end development. That’s hilarious and possibly partially true 😂

After spending tens of millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads, how did it work out for these AI companies? Well at least for Anthropic it doesn’t look like it worked very well.

Domain name squatting has become lucrative again in the world of Al. Do you own any interesting domain names?

A great founder skill to have is public speaking. This is about the ability to think as you speak.

Sam Altman went on a rant in response to Anthropic’s Super Bowl ads 😂

[Vidya @hellovidya]

A founder skill to learn is dealing with uncomfortable silences. If you can drop a question and allow the other person to break the silence, no matter how long it takes, you’re gonna see more success.

[Vidya @hellovidya]

The big AI companies are trying to suck the oxygen from startups while they’re doing something different themselves!

Finally, someone asked the question :)

100% Claude Design + Claude Code - shipped! Mind blown with @claudeai, sorry @figma 🤷🏻‍♀️

Final result at https://t.co/auzmatTi5w.

Took 5-6 hours and $27 in tokens (yes, I measured 😅).

We are probably revising our entire design system with Claude soon.

SEO is Dead: LinkedIn is Your New Top of Funnel in 2026.

SEO and information blogs are no longer viable strategies for top-of-funnel marketing. Companies like HubSpot and Tailwind have lost significant website traffic.

Hubspot brilliantly recovered through aggressive LinkedIn presence. Social media, particularly LinkedIn, has become the primary platform where B2B customers discover products, and teams should focus on posting thought leadership content daily.

This video is not about Taylor Swift even though I’m wearing her sweatshirt. I’m really talking about the free LinkedIn AI formatting tool that we built.

Just dictate your post with no formatting whatsoever and click on “Auto-format” and let FinalLayer format the post for your LinkedIn. If you’re not ready to use AI for your actual writing assistance, you can always use FinalLayer for just getting your posts formatted because doing it on LinkedIn is a chore.

I’m drowning. It’s only week 1 and I’m behind on everything.

I’m that founder who was replaced by investors last year. I have an update.

If you want to know more about sending investor updates and need the format for it, lmk in the comments and I’ll share some tips!

It’s hard to get this guy on camera but I did it!

Most teams need project management. Teams that need to innovate beyond well defined tasks need to make room for the important tasks, which can slip away if we're only focused on the urgent.

[Vidya @hellovidya]

Project management tools are necessary for 90% of the teams to deliver somewhat on schedule. But they do take away the ability to innovate and build a moat when you're trying to check the boxes on urgent tasks.

Being a founder means processing contradictions and still keep moving towards the north star.
