🧪 Prototype v1 shipped in 9 evenings. Core loop: signup → unique referral link → position jumps when friends join.
🎯 **1,000 subscribers!** Milestone unlocked — now to 10K. Monthly recap soon.
🧪 Prototype in 2 weeks. Weekday task columns + Saturday planning view. It\'s already replaced my Notion.
💡 **Idea validated** — interviewed 12 freelancers this week. 10/12 said invoicing is a weekly pain. Enough signal to keep going.
💡 Validated with 25 engineering students. Most flashcard apps fail because the content isn\'t yours. Personal notes are the wedge.
💡 Idea validated — 60 students in my college said they\'d watch Malayalam DSA content. Filmed the first video on a ₹15k phone.
💰 **₹100 total revenue** — small number, huge signal. Someone chose to keep paying after the free trial.
🙋 First user's waitlist went live. He got 340 signups in 3 days — up from his usual ~30. Validation feels good.
💸 **₹1,000 from YouTube** — crossed faster than I expected. Re-investing every rupee into a proper mic and lighting.
👥 **100 users!** Waitlist → invite-only. Some of you are ruthless with feedback and I\'m here for it.
🧪 **First prototype done.** A bare-bones version that turns "Website design — 40 hours" into an invoice with GST. Ugly but working.
