Build Timeline

MILESTONE
Mar 2026

MVP live in 3 weeks — second product, same playbook

Built the same way as TrendFeed: described the product to Claude in detail, iterated daily, 80% AI-generated code. Took 3 weeks from idea to first paying customer. No engineers, no agency, no co-founder.

UPDATE
Mar 2026

The insight: small businesses answer the same 10 questions every day

Talked to 20 small business owners before writing a line of code. Every single one said the same thing: 80% of their support tickets are identical questions they've answered a thousand times. That's the whole product thesis.

1,000 users — all from Reddit and word of mouth

Hit 1,000 registered users without spending a penny on ads. r/SideProject, r/smallbusiness, r/Entrepreneur. Posted honestly, answered every reply personally, updated the thread when I shipped new features.

11,000 users — the support ticket problem is universal

Didn't expect this to scale across industries. E-commerce stores, SaaS companies, local service businesses — they all have the same problem. ChatIQ now handles support for companies across 14 different verticals.

LEARNING
Mar 2026

Two products, same method — the playbook is repeatable

TrendFeed hit $10k MRR month one. ChatIQ hit 11,000 users. Same builder, same approach, different problem. The variable that matters isn't the tech stack — it's whether you've found a pain that's real, specific, and shared by enough people willing to pay.
