Might wanna consider updating the App Store images. At first glance, I don’t really see differences between each screenshot other than higher count numbers and a celebration.

If it’s only one screen, ok might be tough. You could also add a history screen with Claude code easy enough (even though you’re in marketing mode 😆) because it shows people their future success state.

@regyperlera @juliennecooking Am I crazy or is it impossible to search in the Discover tab?

That plus filters would be useful in finding recipes to save.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@viewportui Both.

Decreasing cost is easy for anyone - cancel a subscription, eat out less, etc.

Increasing rev - promotion/salary negotiation, new job, or new biz - is comparatively harder/slower/riskier.

But you can only reduce cost so much. No cap on upping rev. Thus more important.

@juicyricardo @johnrush I like your thought process.

“Slavery” could be avoided by time limits to contracts or max earnings (e.g. every $100 invested yields max of $1,000, then contract expires/ownership ends).

Just gotta be creative and not view everything through old lens.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@johnrush There’ll be platforms for new models.

How about a draft-like way to invest in entrepreneurs?

Imagine normies betting on startups like sports/fantasy. Or owning startup “teams” - Gameday Saturday build sessions are streamed lol

I vote @thesamparr as play-by-play commentator.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@johnrush Many implications, but fun one is thinking of new models to invest in biz/talent.

What are the effects when less startup money is needed? If 200K is needed instead of $1M (and fewer rounds), 5-10 can do that instead of VC.

⬆️ supply of software + ⬆️ supply of investor cash = ?

@farbood Gracias 🙏🏻

@stackblitz @supabase 👋

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@MarcBal77 @iannuttall Yeah, I really want to see a comparison of Windsurf vs. Bolt.

Seems like Windsurf might be better for big, complex projects where Bolt wins for simple/small?

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@johnrush Love this for small/solo biz, which is the best opportunity for most ($M, not $B).

1X tasteful human * AI = ~10X human.

@RuizPropaganda @NoahRyanCo @coltybrah Correct.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@NoahRyanCo @coltybrah It won’t work on a surfboard, but there’s probably something else out there that works for text + audio capture.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@NoahRyanCo @coltybrah I use an iOS app called Quick Journal. It sucks for everything other than entering text as quickly as possible.

I have to review it and re-enter stuff into another system (e.g. Notion) but the most important thing is capture thought as easily and fast *as possible*.

@charliedeets Just downloaded - I love it!

One idea — add a setting to adjust font size of notes in the list. I’d like to make them smaller so I can see more entries and more of each entry.

Great work! 👍

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@d__raptis Ha good point. I'll be using the "nightmare test" when evaluating ideas going forward.

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@DanKulkov @theomarsoliman Yes, this would be a great one. Could take some inspiration from @asmartbear 's article on ideal customer profile (especially the bullseye concept). https://t.co/DCaYQIwbIQ

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

And I don’t necessarily like this, but you could consider adding a money-back guarantee.

Since you want to increase annual conversions, an interesting test would be to include the guarantee *only* on annual plans. I’ve never seen that, but it directly addresses the objection to signing up annually (“maybe I won’t use this for that long.”). Could be genius or there’s a reason I’ve never seen it 😜

[Karl Larson @karlslarson]

@d__raptis You could also add a “feature” saying access to all future releases to imply they’ll get even more value in the future.
