I don t mean this in a disrespectful way or anything like that, but throughout my life, I ve come across (and I m sure you have too) several products whose actual usefulness wasn t exactly impressive, but their creators still made a huge amount of money.

For me, for example, it was:

• Fidget spinners (2017). At the peak, the global market was estimated at hundreds of millions to over $1 billion.

• Metaverse land (2021) valuation could be for tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars each, with the overall market reaching hundreds of millions during the peak hype cycle. I bought one too. :D (actually was scammed).

• Pet Rock (1975) the creator became a millionaire within a few months.

I built Prodshort because I understood after my previous companies that the hard thing is not to Build but to Sell.
But because I'm a builder, not a seller. I decided to build something that Sells for me.
And Because the trend is Founder Led Marketing, I decided to build something that Create content on your behalf.
But there was a lot of AI tools out there. So I decided to go the opposite way, make it the most authentic possible.
I want you to create content when you are not even aware of it.
And honestly it worked for me. Many people tell me it's amazing but to keep it honest, NO ONE PAYED, and that's the only KPI I'm looking at.
For now, I have feedback about the landing page being too AI generated, and doesn't reflect the quality of our product.
And Builder socially scared from sharing there first content.

We launched Velo on Product Hunt this morning without expecting anything.

I thought we'd spend the day refreshing the upvote counter. Instead, I got hooked on reading every comment, watching sign-ups roll in, and seeing users create their first Velo in real time.
