@opaper_app has been acquired.

Four years ago, it started from my bedroom. I started coding, not to build a company, but to help a friend sell T-shirts on WhatsApp without getting scammed.

That side project closed an oversubscribed round in a week, grew into 45,000+ merchants, and expanded to Australia.

What made it special was the people; our team backpacked for months to interview users, built on-site from their shops. Watching users grow from single stalls to regional brands is a deeply personal win.

Now the journey comes full circle. Opaper has been acquired by PT eDOT (a top FMCG company).

Forever grateful to the team, investors, and our users. Onward. 🙏

@zachtratar @NotionHQ Pre-/post-meeting prep.
Pre: who I’m meeting, goals, script, context.
Post: todo list. AI works on or prepares drafts for those todos, I review/send the last 20%.
