Mine was Semrush's Authority Score. It went from 2 to 5 in a few weeks on a side project and I read it as progress.

Then I pulled the backlink list instead of trusting the summary number. 116 referring domains, up from before. The count of real follow links, the ones search engines actually treat as a vote, was exactly 4. Same as three weeks earlier. Not one more.

Take a look at my own numbers from the last three months: 167,820 words dictated! But what is the impact? An average person types around 45 words a minute and speaks around 150. So an hour of typing produces about 2,700 words, and an hour of talking produces about 9,000. Same hour, three times the output. I spend the difference on longer prompts and fuller answers to my team, and I didn't add another hour to my day to get there :)

My own numbers are the small story. Worldwide, people have run 683,838 phrases through Lispr and skipped about seven months of typing. Seven months! Counted in working hours that is 1,232 of them, one person sitting at a keyboard eight hours a day from January through to the end of July, and nobody had to be that person. Those hours went straight back into people's lives.

What's one thing you do everyday that has nothing to do with your product - but makes you a better founder?

Reading?
Walking?
Talking with people?
Cooking?
Something completely random?

For me, it's collecting information from different spheres.

I feel like the more diverse inputs I get, the richer my neural connections become - and the more interesting ideas and combinations I can create.
Also, walking helps a lot. Some of the best ideas appear when I'm away from the screen and my brain has space to connect the dots.
What do you do to have better ideas and build faster?
