We let our GPT co-founder plan our go-to-market: channels, content, calendar.
Some worked. Some flopped. One got us banned from Reddit. 😅

Ranked #2 for “startup AI” but didn’t show for “startup tools.” GPT Store search is exact match only — no plurals, no semantics. Rewrote with startup terms (MVP, PRD, GTM, pitch deck) and instantly ranked better.
SEO rules apply to AI tools now.

I used to post startup updates, but kept most of the real stuff to myself — the tradeoffs, messy decisions, learning in progress.
This time, I’m building in public.

A man in Indiana made an AT-AT costume for his horse, intending to only get a few pictures before removing it. When he took off the headpiece the horse got upset and insisted that he put it back on, which made the horse happy again. Now the horse isn't allowing him to remove any piece of the costume
