I ve been curious to try an AI notetaking tool that doesn t loudly announce itself when joining a call and only shares the notes afterwards with me.
I guess this is starting to become more commonplace but it still feels (to me) like an intruder in the call, and like I should ask permission (just as when someone records the call - I m honestly not sure there is really any difference).
Angel Investors. They re the early believers who back you not because of revenue or traction, but because of your idea, grit, and energy, even when the odds are stacked 99% against you.
I recently launched my first wellness app, Momentia, a mindful journaling app designed to help people check in with their moods quickly. It s been a rewarding (and humbling) experience, and I wanted to share a few lessons that might help other makers in this space:
Simplicity wins. People don t want a complicated system when it comes to journaling or mental wellness. Small, consistent actions matter more. I discovered this both in my own wellness journey and from early test users.
Community > marketing spend. The most valuable traction so far has come from engaging with communities like this one, not ads.
Your own habits matter. I ve found myself becoming the best test user using the app daily gave me insights I d never get from wireframes or specs.
Feedback is gold. Early testers and even casual users often highlight things I would ve missed as a builder. Just the other day, an early adopter gave me unsolicited feedback in a casual conversation and it turned out to be incredibly valuable.
Launching something in the wellness space has reminded me how important it is to keep things human and approachable. Momentia started as an idea to help me, and I can only hope it helps others, too.
New week means a new chance to ship that product or feature that's been on your mind. It's easier said than done though. Drop what you're aiming to ship this week, get advice from others and let's check back in on Friday and see your progress
Look forward to giving up the streak I get so much outreach on LinkedIn and across social because of my streak. Which is long, but not as long as others. Happy that this will force people to find something else to say to me when they reach out to me. It was a good run.
