I m Badar. I m currently building an early-stage AI coaching / thinking-partner app called Thimin.
Right now it s very raw, the core experience is simply talking to an AI, thinking out loud, and seeing where it genuinely helps (or doesn t). I m spending a lot of time testing, talking to users, and trying to understand what actually creates a wow moment before adding more features.
I m here mainly to learn, share what I m discovering, and get better at building something people truly find valuable. Looking forward to engaging and learning from you all!
I ve been thinking a lot about the "distribution wall" we all hit. There s a lot of pressure to hire agencies or jump straight into CPC roulette, but I m starting to think traditional "marketing" is actually a waste of money in the early days.
When you re a micro-startup, you don't need a brand strategy yet you need human beings clicking your links so you can see what breaks. I had a wake-up call recently when I realized a Spanish-language influencer was directing a huge amount of traffic to my site. The problem? I didn't have a single word of Spanish on the site. I would have never known that was a potential market if I hadn't seen the raw traffic data first.
I m looking to connect with someone who s interested in building an AI/GenAI product from scratch. I don t have a final idea locked in yet, but I m at a stage where I want to brainstorm, explore real problems, and validate ideas with a potential co-founder.
