In the same year I left Google s Mountain View HQ where I was working on subscription experiences used by billions to pursue Murror, two engineers also left Google to build Character AI.
Their early prototype raised safety concerns, but the idea evolved into a platform where people could create virtual characters such as AI companions, assistants, or friends.
We started from similar places, but chose very different paths.
Character AI focused on moving fast to meet market demand and scale quickly, then kids committed suicide using the product.
Murror chose to move slowly prioritizing research, ethics, and user safety. We intentionally designed our AI around a butterfly symbol, as a reminder that it is a tool for reflection, not a replacement for real human relationships. This approach takes more time, and it doesn t always show immediate financial results.
Over time, the contrast between speed and responsibility has become clearer.
At Murror, money is not the starting point. It is a result that comes after doing the work carefully and responsibly.
This is a long journey.
If you are someone an investor, partner, or builder who values patience, resilience, and long-term impact, I believe this path matters. As the world becomes more complex and emotionally fragile, the need for thoughtful, ethical technology will only grow.
This is just the beginning.

Hey Product Hunt
I m Mohsen a software engineer turned indie founder.

I build products across very different domains. One is MyHealth Rex, a privacy-first app for managing personal and family health records. The other is MineWars, a modern, strategy-focused take on classic Minesweeper, built around thoughtful mechanics rather than randomness.

I enjoy long-term product building, clean architecture, and learning from real user behavior whether it s health tech or games. Here to learn from other makers, share experiences, and connect with people who care about building things properly.

Nice to meet you all.

On June 14, 2023, the European Parliament officially voted to ban unpaid internships.

This honestly made me happy, because I remember how, during college, I was expected to spend a full 2 months working full-time at an advertising agency as an unpaid intern (Spoiler alert: I fought for and got some pay ), but that wasn t the norm.
