Building A01
A new way to consume information

I made an app to keep up with the world without information overload.

Here’s how it works👇

I wrote 2 Reddit posts
and got my first 200 app users.
Here’s what I did 👇

launched on the app store, wrote 2 reddit posts
got 200 users in 48 hours
took me 3 weeks to hit that on testflight
definitely wasted too much time there
lesson: stop overthinking and ship

After 4 weeks on TestFlight with 300 beta testers, A01 is finally live on the App Store!

two weeks ago, A01 was so rough you had to leave the app to read an article. now you can read them right inside!
small wins one at a time.
more to come!

just submitted to the app store!!!
biggest mistake so far? staying stuck in testflight way too long
all our traffic died there
now we’re shipping and fixing as we go
can’t wait to see what happens

openai really put “color” behind a paywall to discriminate against free users

Submitted our YC application
Last time: 10 days late
This time: product in hand (and on time!)
Let’s see what happens

One weird thing about indie apps today:
You don’t launch globally, you just wake up and it is global.
No localization. Just distribution by default.

Funny how it works:
Talk to 3 users, the product gets clearer.
Talk to 10, the whole roadmap changes.
Talk to 0, and somehow you’re still building things no one asked for.

Clarity comes from conversations, not ideas.

132 testflight users in 2 weeks
feels a bit slow
but it’s a start
let's go for 200 in 48 hours🚀
