Launching Obolus today — free relocation finance for international job offers

Hey everyone!
I m launching Obolus today and wanted to share it here.

The idea is simple: the same salary can leave you with a very different lifestyle depending on the country once taxes, rent, healthcare and everyday costs are included.

Obolus helps you compare that across 8 countries and see what actually remains each month. It s completely free.

One thing that made this project quite personal for me: I wrote the calculations for all 8 tax systems for the platforms' own backend myself, after a lot of tedious digging through tax laws, government documents and rules across completely different jurisdictions.

Build your brand before your product, or launch first and reveal yourself later?

  1. I've always been on the personal brand side. More and more founders are building it now (sometimes even before the product is ready while it's still in development, before seed fundraising). The CEO builds their position so the product sells more easily at the official launch.

  2. But I have experience with people who built the product, scaled it, and only then did we discover who was behind it.

Honestly, with the first approach, I'd be concerned that people invest more in me as a person than in the product. People would idealise the founder and overlook the product's flaws (which could hurt development and constructive feedback).

+ I noticed the most common mistake that many people who started building a personal brand first, connected their product to their personal accounts (emails, social media, etc.) and started having a problem selling these things, because they cannot "give someone keys" to their personal profiles.
