My journey in startups began 10 years ago, and I've launched 18 startups, most of which failed. Briefly on why they failed:
1. Contract Online my first startup in 2015, which was supposed to be an online service for remote signing of contracts for any transactions between individuals. A kind of analogue of a secure transaction. For this startup, I even managed to attract a business angel who invested $16,500.

Reason for failure: I had two lawyers on my team who discovered in the process that the legal framework at the time could not provide reliable grounds for protecting our users in remote transactions. The contracts would not have been considered legally signed.
2. Natural Products In 2015-2018, I became very passionate about healthy eating, but in the process, I discovered that products in all chain stores are full of chemicals, and stores with truly natural products are inaccessible to the majority. Hence, the idea emerged to create my own online platform where you could order natural products directly from farmers at affordable prices.

Reason for failure: For several years, I tried to launch this project, even trained as a baker of natural bread and tried to create my own farm, but in the process, I found that few people are willing to pay for truly natural products, even if these products were only 20-30% more expensive than market prices, and not 2-3 times more, as in premium stores. Hence, the market was so small that all my attempts were doomed.

Hey everyone. My name is Talha Masood and I am a second time founder. Previously I built Remotebase[dot]com and raised $2.7 million for my startup.

I am now building an AI editor to help interviewers assess vibe coding skills in software engineers. I myself vibe code every single day, even though I have more than 10 years of experience writing code. I believe that software teams can now move 10x faster if they're using the right AI workflows and tools.
Here are a few facts about me:

• I have launched close to 10 times on Product Hunt

• I organize a lot of IRL events in San Francisco. My latest event is happening on April 24th. Here's the link to it if you're interested - https://lu.ma/5s9vc24j

• I can write code 10x faster than an average software engineer by using the right Vibe Coding tools. Please challenge me. P.S. I came up with the number 10x out of thin air lol. But I do a lot of Vibe Coding

• I am also looking for a technical co-founder right now.
