Hi I’m Mads. 40. Parent builder. 2 kids. Infinite chaos.
I’m building MakiRoll, a recording app for camera-shy people.
My goal is to hit 1K MRR end of year. This is day 1.
Do you think I’m going to make it? 😬😅

27 people. €280. One espresso machine. For a creator in Sweden ☕
@moonfarm_dev's board: 27 beans sold, 73 still up for grabs.
This isn't just about coffee. It's marketing that does good: your brand on the board, a creator gets a machine.
Bean #28 is waiting 👇

Most solo founders will never appear on a news site.
This is the $29 exception.
You + 2 others. One press release. 500+ sites.
High-DR backlinks → borrow authority → rank on Google.
First 6 spots only. PressDrop.io

I used metricshots.com to generate this from a referral by @DrewWakefield5
thank you @DrewWakefield5 💜

Love how minimal @AfterimageDev went with his Founder Spotlight theme. Also a great interview from a cool dude who loves to build useful products.

A fool and their money... (That's me!)
Yesterday I lost a bet🤦♂️
So I had to buy TWO beans on the board.☕️
And I am giving them away to
the two most deserving
people on X! 🔥🚀
Who are they??
A clean GPT chat will choose TWO
people from the replies in this thread.
The rules;
Write a reply.
Get judged by GPT.
Win your Bean on the board!
What could possibly go wrong? 🤪

One of my biggest pain points...
Freakin' solved!! 🤯
By a notch app I'd already bought!!
Nick's just shipped a feature for free
that I honestly would have
for on it's own!! 🔥🚀
Just go and download AWNA now! Do it!! 👊
I'm committed to making AWNA one of the best Windows notch apps you can get 💪
v1.5.0 is out! 🚀
New to the Shelf tab:
Upload files from your phone via a QR code! 📱
Uses your own WiFi, doesn't pass through any servers.
Safe, easy, secure.
Next, AWNA is awaiting review for being listed on the Microsoft Store. If you'd prefer to install from there, I'll update when it's live!

We're all on X for a reason.
I've already made it.
I fly my own airplane.
I live on a tropical beach.
I've got nothing to sell you.
I am here on X for good karma.
Clients pay me $1,000 an hour for advice.
Most of the time I turn down the offer.
Connect with me and you'll get that
same bespoke advice for free.
Just like I've given to;
@guyalexhamilton
@AfterimageDev
@JustinasRoland0
@tudorxjh
@techtitan_6
@tryjude
@madebydanl
And many more...
What's your reason for being on X?

16 builders. €10 each. One espresso machine for another builder. ☕
Why?
@moonfarm_dev has posted his morning coffee every single day since June. Fresh posts clear 5,000 views before lunch.
Plot twist: his machine keeps getting stuck.
So we're sending him a new one. A Sage Barista Express that shows up in every morning shot. For years.
How it works:
1. Propose: anyone nominates a creator, the community upvotes
2. Fund: claim a bean from €10 (we're here)
3. Ship: board full, machine + framed poster go out
4. Film: we film the send-off and post it right here
Then a new board opens for the next creator.
What your €10 gets you:
→ A spot on the board with your face or logo
→ Your own card: one-liner, links, live visit counter
→ Your bean printed on the framed poster on the creator's wall
Thank you to the first 15 who joined me on the board:

84 beans left. Yours could be next 👇

New deals exclusive to BuildHop users just dropped.
If you have a Founder Spotlight you should go add your promo to the page!

After 3 years offline raising her son, Claire Wagner returned to tech and built herself a bootcamp.
Dozens of calls later, she saw the problem: founders weren’t running out of ambition. They were running out of feedback. So she built BuildHop.io.

I WENT FROM 300 TO 3,000 FOLLOWERS IN 43 DAYS.
No secret formula. No growth hacks.
Just everything I did, what worked, what didn’t, and what I learned along the way.
