if i had to become an AI Engineer again from scratch.. i'd follow this roadmap. nothing else.

if you had to pick one rn: cloud agent: Muse / Grok / Dot self-hosted: Hermes / OpenClaw which route are you taking? i can’t decide if i want convenience or full control 😭

the new SaaS funnel: write a genuinely useful reddit post - offer a free resource - resource is branded - user discovers your product - now you have a lead way more subtle than “hey guys, check out my SaaS.”

i think “integration” is going to become one of the biggest moats in AI. not the model. not the prompt. not even the agent. having access to the right data + systems + permissions is the real advantage.

bro did x secretly change the algo? i disappear for a month and come back to this engagement what happened while i was gone

figma, reddit, amazon, x every company discovering the same exciting new business model: “yes agents can use our platform” “no they cannot actually use our platform”

AI agents in 2026: “i can run your entire company” bro still need 14 permissions to read a google doc

i didn't post on x for a month. instead, i tried to see how much i could build in 30 days. in about 2 weeks, portform hit 100 users and 11 paid users. portform is a form backend built for websites and AI agents. you can test forms anonymously in a sandbox, configure everything before signing up, and connect AI agents through MCP. it's freemium, so most users are still on the free plan with 300 submissions. but seeing people actually pay for something i built was a pretty good signal. also grew hoverstate design to 1.5k+ monthly active users in around 2 weeks. hoverstate is a curated gallery of real websites, landing pages, and design sections for inspiration. somewhere in between all that, i had university finals too lol. and because apparently that wasn't enough, i also started working on a real FMCG product. it's a tea brand. currently working on product development, testing, and figuring out the whole thing from scratch. gonna share more about that soon. so yeah, i spent the last month building instead of posting about building. turns out SaaS still works in 2026. now time to shitpost more actively about what i'm building again.

build an AI wrapper launch it post “building in public” get 12 founders to like it call it traction raise money build another AI wrapper repeat until someone buys you

2024: AI autocomplete 2025: AI coding agents 2026: AI agent managers at this rate, 2027 is just going to be: “I hired 47 agents. why is nobody shipping?”

enjoying this drama lol 2026 is gonna end with: who’s got whose agent? my prediction: by the end of 2026, the dark web is gonna be full of leaked AI account credentials. marketers, get ready for the most cursed retargeting campaigns ever

6 months ago i was broke with 0 users and no idea what i was doing today i'm proud to announce that we've reached 0 users 0 revenue 0 employees 0 funding but the mindset is different now we're no longer building for validation we're building for the journey next stop: 1 user never give up.

something i've noticed on r/entrepreneur, r/startups, r/saas etc: a lot of “organic” posts are basically ads with extra steps. “here's my free notion guide” - click the link - download the template - template is branded around their SaaS - now you're in their funnel nothing wrong with it. it's just interesting how much of reddit growth is basically content marketing wearing an organic costume.

half of x is founders selling tools to founders who are building tools for founders grow on x tools, linkedin growth automation, reddit posting automation, subreddit posting tools, cold outreach tools founder sells tool to founder founder uses it to reach another founder that founder sells another tool to a founder infinite founder loop lol at some point the customer is just another founder trying to reach another founder

the vibe coding economy is just software strip clubs with SaaS subscriptions

I'd rather be a stripper than a vibe coder

we somehow reinvented advertising except now: the advertiser is a founder the audience is founders the publisher is a founder and everyone is selling something 😭
