Two minutes.

Tell us who you are and send a link to something you made. It doesn’t have to be finished. It has to be yours.

Time-boxed sprints with a clear finish line. The solo founder competition is one of them. Most people surprise themselves.

Show what’s working.

Once a month. Five minutes each. A live product and honest feedback, not slides and applause.

It compounds.

Co-founders, first customers, first hires. The people you ship next to become the people you build with.
