Built an AI app solo.
I built an AI app to $19.7K/month and 250K users. No ads. No team.
Just me, a couple of phones, and a plan that looked like this:
- Pick one market. Obsess over it.
- Post daily even when it flops.
- Double down when something goes viral.
- Treat user feedback like investor— Alex Nguyen (@alexcooldev)

Bad idea ≠ bad founder
Listen: you’re not a bad founder.
From 2021 to 2023 we built our startup around “bookmarking”, a really difficult market.
We made $290. In all 3 years.
Then in 2024, we quit and built a habit tracker app. In last 4 months we made $1M.
It’s the idea that’s bad. Not you.
