Otto by Audos.com
Launched this week
Describe your idea. Otto builds the landing page, runs ads, and lands your first customer - all on autopilot. Start from your terminal (npx skills add prehype/audos-agent-skill), OpenClaw, or Audos.com. Top up with $1, and we invest up to $50 in your idea.
Kevin Rose used autonomous mode to go from a simple idea to a paying customer in under 10 hours. No code. No team. Today we're opening this up to everyone.

@ednevsky Super curious: for non-technical solopreneurs like me testing side ideas, how does Otto decide when to pause iteration and say "this isn't working," and what's the typical cost beyond the initial $1 top-up
Say BARK!
Really love how fast it is for people to go from "someone should build a company doing x - to execution with these tools."
I see, its like finding diamond in mines of coal! But if everyone can spin up ai startups instantly, what becomes the real scarce advantage - distribution, ideas or something else?

@lak7 We help each founder find their distribution edge
Say BARK!
@lak7 I think this is a super point, in fact, Nicholas and I (founders of Audos) just wrote a book about this topic called Me, My Customer and AI - the core thesis is what we call Relationship Capital. The ability for a founder to understand a customer group well enough to predict how to solve their problems. Happy to send you a book for free if you want it: https://www.memycustomerandai.com/
@werdelin Sure, would love to read it! Also audos.com is not working for some reason and giving 404
Say BARK!
@lak7 can you send the 404 screenshot to me - and the address you want the book sent to. I am on henrik@audos.com
The question in the comments about what becomes scarce is the right one. I think it's judgment - when to kill an idea, when to pivot the positioning, when a channel isn't working. Otto can execute fast but someone still needs to make those calls.
Curious how you handle that - does it surface decision points to the founder, or mostly runs until metrics show failure?
Happy launch day! The $1 for $50 ad credit is a clever way to get started. How does Otto decide which ad channels to use for that first batch of tests?
Congrats on the launch! The Kevin Rose example is a clever proof point, but he’s not starting from scratch - he has an audience and name recognition doing most of the heavy lifting. What does the timeline to a first paying customer actually look like for someone with no existing distribution?
The $1 top-up → $50 investment mechanic is genuinely interesting as a distribution play. But who controls where that $50 in ad spend goes — Otto autonomously decides the channel, audience, copy, budget pacing? Or is there a human checkpoint before it starts spending? That's the part I'd want to understand before handing over the keys.
