Build3 Session 2 notes on why market beats idea — the surfing analogy, what a market really is, 3 market mistakes, and 6 lenses to find a good one.

Short notes from Build3 Session 1 with my take on each — the 4 startup sins, 5 stages, and why I am going solo first.

I got selected for the build3 Impact Accelerator (Cohort 10) and attended the in-person kickoff in Goa. Here is what it felt like to finally stop building alone.

After weeks of building in public, I took a step back to define exactly who I want to reach and how to present myself consistently across every platform. Here is the refined ICP and complete profile setup.

I researched how social platforms actually work in 2026 — what algorithms reward, what content formats perform, and how to build a sustainable system across X, LinkedIn, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Substack, and Reddit.

Four days of research, one clear lesson: distribution beats features. I thought about building my own email service, then reality hit. Here is what I did instead.

I have six live projects and a few concepts. The problem is not having ideas — it is figuring out which ones deserve more time and which ones need to evolve. Here is how I am mapping what I have built against what the market actually pays for.

After two days of research, the conclusion is clear: focus on Build Fast, Ship Fast, and Teach Fast. Here is why these three categories capture the real money in AI.

The framework I am using to pick what to build next, filtered through lessons on distribution, niche, moats, and what indie builders actually ship for $10–$99/mo.
