I have 100 Feather customers, so what can I build for them? Everyone has a blog, so I thought why not build a chatbot that can answer everything that is on their blog. While I was building it I realized why should I limit this to 100 people. I took 2 weeks from idea to launch.
Shipped SiteGPT in two weeks by carving a chatbot out of an existing customer base
Bhanu spotted the AI wave on Twitter, scoped a chatbot for his existing Feather customers' blogs, then realized mid-build it deserved to be its own product. Starting from a known audience and a single narrow use case compressed idea-to-launch into two weeks and hit $10K MRR in month one.

I had Max and Sparky's uh Galactic Dre uh on a back burner for a little while um and I was like hey man I got this book right and used AI to do some help...

Build a side project to learn another business
When you're building software for an industry you don't know, ship a real product through that industry's pipeline yourself before writing code. Andrew wrote and printed a Ruby kids' book to learn his friend's printing business end-to-end — ISBN, copyright, margins, ebook vs print. Building the thing the customer builds teaches you more than any discovery call.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
