Snowflake Data Marketplace| Co-founder@CN (acq Snowflake)| Investor@Communityfund| I share insights on building start-ups and personal growth

I love building companies. Over the last 10 years, I’ve started, scaled, and exited 4 ventures—some bootstrapped to multi-million ARR, others acquired by industry leaders. Additionally - I was also fortunate to be part of Snowflake Pre-IPO to post-IPO growth phase - seeing what scaling looks like in the product and sales orgs. 

Right now, I’m deep in AI, co-running the world’s largest AI newsletter and building/researching in the Memory and AI agent space. I also invest actively—both through a fund and my own syndicate—backing founders who are building category-defining companies.

Always open to great conversations, whether it’s about building, investing, or the future of AI.

Building | 2x exited founder (acq Snowflake) | Start-up to Post-IPO | Investor@Nextwave

If you’ve been in AI long enough, you know when something shifts.

The last 12 months the slope steepened.

Models now:
• Write and ship production-level code.
• Handle multi-step reasoning reliably.
• Work across large codebases and documents without collapsing.
• Orchestrate tools and execute structured workflows.
• Cost materially less per experiment than a year ago.

And the pace between releases is compressing.

What matters isn’t just that models are better. It’s that iteration cycles are collapsing.

You can now:
- Ship MVPs in days.
- Run 10x more experiments per sprint.
- Test product hypotheses without adding headcount.
- Refactor entire systems without touching most of the code yourself.

The builders who understand this are reorganizing around it.

Smaller teams > higher leverage > more shots on goal > faster feedback loops.

This is the first time in my career where capability, cost, and velocity all improved at once.

If you’re building on the app layer right now, this is an unusually asymmetric moment.

Lean in.

We've been extremely lucky to have some of the sharpest minds in tech sit down with us on Superhuman.

We’ve talked about 
- Building in monopolized markets
- Competing with giants
- AI-native companies
- Capital allocation
- Leadership under pressure

...and a lot more

When I took over Single Grain, it was a failing SEO shop.

Revenue was tanking. And I knew one bad hire would absolutely destroy what little we had left.

That's why I'm partnering with LinkedIn.

I've learned after 15 years of building agencies: you don't need more resumes. You need the right people. Fast.

What I like about #LinkedInHiringPro is that I can describe what I actually need in my own words. The AI agent then surfaces and invites qualified candidates I probably wouldn't have found on my own.

Scaling a business is hard. Hiring the right person doesn't have to be.

If you are obsessed with Claude Code, OpenClaw, etc., we want to hire you.

First step is to go through our ‘beat claude’ challenge at Single Grain | Start Growing . 🙂

I believe that this will be the future of hiring. Feel free to take the template for your own company.

No alternative text description for this image

84% of the world has never used AI.

Let that satisfying visual sink in for a second.
Each dot in this chart represents ~3.2 million people. 2,500 dots = 8.1 billion humans.

The gray? That’s ~6.8 billion people who have never touched an AI tool. Not once.

The green at the bottom? ~1.3 billion free chatbot users. That’s only 16%.

The tiny sliver of yellow? ~15-25 million people paying $20/month for AI. That’s 0.3%.

And the red dots you can barely see? ~2-5 million people using coding scaffolds like Claude Code or Cursor. 0.04% of the planet.

I run a business where AI fluency with Claude Code is now mandatory. We’ve replaced significant headcount costs with autonomous agent systems. We build business tools with Claude Code.

Most founders I talk to think AI adoption is “everywhere.” It’s not even close.

If you’re reading this, you’re likely in the top 1% of AI users on Earth. The opportunity gap between those who use AI and those who don’t is only getting wider.

We’re at the dial-up era of AI. The people building skills now will compound their advantage for the next decade.

What’s your take on the adoption curve?

Many people talk about OpenClaw for personal use cases, but not enough for business use cases.

We used it to book a meeting with a multi-trillion dollar company.

I'm going to share a few business examples that will hopefully give you ideas. I think a lot of people are on the fence right now because they're either scared, lazy, or both.

Once you give it a shot, you'll become addicted.

And if you're non-technical, don't worry, because I'm in the same boat.
OpenClaw is an open-source autonomous agent you can run locally or on a server. Almost anything you can do on a computer, it can do.

Here are 4 real business use cases:

Daily Deal Finder

OpenClaw goes through our CRM, sales transcripts, and based on our goals, figures out the right people to talk to and what the angle is. This alone booked me a call with a trillion (with a T) dollar company. On a conversation we forgot about, it quickly gave me the context, angle, and outreach message.

Ad Creative Scaler

A prospect recently said they wanted 5,000 AI creatives per month. I had the agent look through their ad library, website, understand their brand, and come up with UGC ad concepts that scale. It even created quick video and photo mockups using Gemini's latest models.

Social Media Clipper

I record 80 minutes a week for the Marketing School podcast and we cover a lot of topics that often get missed. That's a lot of wasted potential. My social bot now finds and clips the best moments.

SEO/AEO Agent

Having an agent feed me insights is nice, but let's be real. We all want something to just do the work for us. I had it scan my site for opportunities (connected to GA4, GSC, and Ahrefs API), create production-grade content using ClickFlow, and place the drafts directly inside my CMS.

How This Scales:

My primary "chief of staff" is Alfred. He manages my growing squad of agents: Oracle (SEO), Flash (Social), Green Arrow (Sales), and more. Each agent earns autonomy over time.

New agents start restricted. Insights and data reports only. As they prove reliable, we unlock execution rights for drafting, outreach, purchasing.

Keep a human in the loop for high-stakes decisions.

Who else is playing with OpenClaw right now? And if not, why not?
