A four-hour flight with no Wi-Fi gave me the perfect excuse to reflect - and write about what life as an AI founder actually feels like. (It s also a decent cure for plane boredom)
TL;DR: Some days I can t imagine doing anything else. Other days I wonder what I m doing.
Charlie (@cerwindcharlie)and I have been thinking a lot about what really matters when building a startup. And honestly, it all comes down to one thing:
So I vibecoded Worktagg a simple, AI-driven platform that drops a real case study, expert takeaways and a quick quiz into your inbox every day. The goal is to turn case prep into a small daily habit instead of a giant cram session, and to give anyone the same quality of insights you d get inside a top consulting firm.
It s built to be lightweight, practical and actually enjoyable to use I use it everyday since I love solving this cases. In case you wanna try!
After rebuilding the same project three times because AI forgot my architecture, I got fed up and built @CodeRide (Beta) with my team.
The problem: AI code assistants lose track of your project between sessions. Every time I start coding with Cursor, Claude, or any AI assistant, I waste time re-explaining my codebase structure, architectural decisions, and coding patterns.
What we built: The project management tool for coding agents using MCP. Upload your project documentation or PRD, and CodeRide breaks it into optimized, fully contextual tasks ready for your AI agent.
On Product Hunt, I can see many people launching their products using "vibe-coding tools" like @Lovable , @bolt.new , or@Replit
I reckon many people who created something with them are usually developers who didn't have enough time for building a side idea before, but with AI, they could make it happen.
As a solo maker, I only build when I know there's an audience. Making sure my market has decent volume is so crucial, and there's so many tools in this niche! So what's your go to?
