has anyone built a tool that allows you to take conversations across gemini, gpt, grok, etc. in the visual layouts as a mind map? having to open up different tabs and copy + pastes answers to go through different threads is kinda painful.

i’ve basically been doing this entrepreneur thing since i dropped out in 2016. seeing how fast i can ship with LLMs now… it hits me how much quicker I could’ve moved back then. it’s wild that this is the timeline we get to build in.

if ur not a technical founder in 2025. you better be cracked at distribution, sales and ops. better yet, be unreal at 2/3 of those things. talented technical folks who are worth their chop won't settle for anything less.

hey mom. the partying in different cities every 2 weeks kinda played out. introducing our partnership with VISA for Miami Art Week. if you’re in town and love hip-hop & rnb, i promise we’re the place to be. the dj curation to artist appearances are going to be awesome. if you are building in culture, sports, music, or entertainment general, i'd love to slide you some free tickets. dm meeee!

tryna grow on this platform. is it better to share a ton of free value on platform or wall gate the content with the RT + Like and i'll send you a PDF strategy. the latter feels gimmicky. is it the necessary evil?

how i’m building a profitable, cash-flowing network hack across major cities through PLAYGRND. 90% of the entertainment industry still runs on 2010 marketing. we broke that pattern and just hit profitability. here’s how: invest in content first. content is free A/B testing.

once you do, every city becomes a profit loop: throw premium experiences, attract creators, KOLs, and B2B connections, then repeat.

it's been painful, but building a cultural network that cashflows first is the best leverage we could’ve created for the 100x play that comes next.

over 1M+ followers. $400K in 6 months. (cheat code for builders who love reading) here’s how books became my go to advisory board take the books that shaped how you think (first principles, innovation stack, etc.) download them as PDFs and drop them into gpt. prompt it:

it’s like having an on-demand advisory board without pestering everyone you know. once you’ve built a draft or plan, share it with a few sharp people. proof your logic in the real world (having critical thinkers here helps a lot!)

gets really cool when you start seeing patterns + watching your ideas compound faster.
