@theventure: This guy built an app for his girlfriend and sold it for $80 million 💻💰 Maor Shlomo's girlfriend is an artist who needs a website for her small business. Every tool he tries is slow, clunky, and keeps breaking. So Maor, who's spent years working with AI, decides to build the thing himself. In early 2025 he launches Base44, where you describe the app you want in plain words and the AI builds it for you. He does it completely alone, with no funding and no team, while much bigger companies backed by hundreds of millions are building the exact same thing. ✓ Wins his first users by sitting them down at a table and fixing every bug live as they build ✓ Posts his progress online, and other builders start signing up ✓ Hands out free credits every time someone shares what they built, so Base44 spreads fast ✓ Hits a million dollars a year just three weeks in Clunky website tools → builds his own with AI → goes it alone against funded giants → fixes bugs live for his first users → 400,000 users with zero employees → $80M Wix exit in six months. Sometimes one person building the thing they actually need beats an army building it for a market. What would you build alone if you started by solving your own problem first? 🤔 #Business #Base44 #AI #Success #Entrepreneur@Base44
