    How do you structure an AI/automation agency? Retainers, pricing, and getting clients

    - AI - 
    That was my thinking too, and I don't disagree with it. The thing I keep hitting is that about 80% of the industry here is tourism based, and each tourism sector is slightly different. So when I try to niche down, each individual market feels too small to build one repeatable solution around...

    Hi @Dark Water, I agree and I appreciate you calling it out. I know that has been a weak point of mine. I feel like I'm actually a burden and not helping. The reason I tend to say I do anything is because it feels like it will capture any of their needs and not have them say "oh I don't need...

    Hi @MJ DeMarco, First off, thank you for taking the time to read my post and give some input. I read Unscripted and was hooked immediately, it put words to a lot of things I'd only had glimpses of but couldn't find anyone else going into the depth I was looking for. I agree with you that I...

    @Dark Water Thank you for taking the time to read it and respond. I agree that it burdens the customer, and that's my main pain right now. I can sense it's a struggle for them to figure out where we fit, and I feel like it's something I should fix, because I almost want to just sit and listen...

    A bit of background. I'm from Barbados, a small island in the Caribbean. We are constantly behind what the current standards are (most people run their business on Excel or by paper!). I have witnessed this firsthand and get frustrated looking at how inefficiently some things are done, and I...

    Yea, trust me, I love it because all my family lives all over the world, and without it, we wouldn't be able to see each other or communicate as easily. I just think it’s gone too far. So, really like what you are building, signed up, and will go for a mission!

    This is pretty cool. I actually found this thread because I saw it was a map of Edmonton and thought it was cool (I also live in Edmonton). I actually like this idea. I have had a really hard time over the past year seeing the direction that our society is going with social media and technology...

    Building a private social app, what do you think?

    IDEA 
    @Ed Kim pretty much nailed it. Every social app looks like its predecessor until it doesn't. But the BeReal and Snapchat questions are fair so I'll answer them properly. @perchboy - BeReal is performance dressed up as anti-performance. The two minute window, the countdown, the "late" stamp...

    There is a human element yeah. I used Claude to help with the backend, the stack had a lot of moving parts and a lot of the work was just wiring things together and troubleshooting the connections. The product decisions, the design, the why behind it, thats all me. Ill be honest, im three weeks...

    Appreciate the name pushback, going to think on it. Quick bit of context though, I never actually intended for people to say "mmnts" out loud. The name is meant to be seen, not spoken. When you read it and clock that it's "moments" with the vowels stripped out, you get the whole product in one...

    Building a private social app, what do you think?

    IDEA 
    Honestly I'm building it partly because I want it to exist whether or not it becomes a business. I'd use it even if I was the only one on it. That doesn't mean profit is the enemy, but it does mean I'm not chasing the engagement-maximizing version of this, which is where every other social app...

    Building a private social app, what do you think?

    IDEA 
    Ed, thanks, this means a lot, especially from someone else in the TestFlight trenches. To your question about no likes or comments, yeah, people just message each other directly. There's a private reply on each post, so if you want to say something about what someone shared, it goes straight to...

    Building a private social app, what do you think?

    IDEA 
    Appreciate this. It’s actually already built and on TestFlight with a small group of people actively using it. So the “go build it” part is done. But your bigger point still lands, because the real test is whether people actually keep using it, and that’s what I’m in the middle of finding out...

    Hi guys, My name is Luke and I am 25 years old. Bit of backstory first. I’m reading Unscripted right now and it’s genuinely changing how I think. Every chapter is articulating things I’d half-felt for years but never had the language for, the script we’re all on, why hustle culture is just a...
