#BuildInPublic update: as of today, @HeyMagai is now making $3k MRR.

This is approximately 54 days after I quietly opened the digital doors for public signup.

This also follows 2 record breaking days in terms of payments/renewals—$1k in 48hrs.

We've had some churn but this is… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Again, this is with minimal marketing—really just #BuildInPublic + a few emails to a small list.

I've been getting some questions about why I've chosen to "build in public" as a startup founder. And although there seems to be a plethora of #BuildInPublic founders here on Twitter, some people don't understand the concept. So I thought I'd share my thoughts about what it is… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Just hit $500 MRR for @HeyMagai. 🎉 #BuildInPublic

Guys! We're so close to hitting 100 users on @HeyMagai! Zero marketing push, just sharing my #BuildInPublic journey.

Can we push this over the 100 mark today? Would you help spread the word for the BEST ChatGPT tool?

So here's a quick #BuildInPublic observation...

Yesterday evening, I posted publicly for the first time that @HeyMagai is open for public signup. Before I did that, we had 68 total users signed up.

As of this morning, we had accumulated >30 new signups just from people sharing… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

This is going to be fun... 🤩

Profitable before launch... @HeyMagai is off to a great start after only 2 weeks of letting in beta testers. #BuildInPublic

#BuildInPublic update: "Buckets" feature for my new AI app is almost finished.

There are a few more things I want to add in and tweak about this feature, but the current iteration is working pretty well as-is.

Finally going to start experimenting with paid ads for my #startup. Starting with 2 similar sets of designs.
