Not everything needs AI
These days, almost every product that launches comes with some form of AI. It's become the default AI for this, AI for that. And honestly, most of them don t really need it. The result? Everything starts to feel the same. The only real selling point becomes we use AI.
That s exactly why I started building @HumanEye because not every problem should be solved by AI. Some things, like resume reviews and career guidance, still deserve the human touch. Real feedback, from real people.
Would love to hear your thoughts:
Are we overusing AI just for the sake of hype?
Have you come across products that felt forced because of their AI features?
What are some areas where human input still matters most?
Startups Are Spending $1 to Make $1—Is CAC the New Burn Rate Crisis?
What is CAC?
CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) is the total cost of getting a new customer. It includes things like ads, marketing tools, salaries, and any time spent on outreach.
Formula:
CAC = Total marketing + sales spend Number of new customers acquired
So if you spend $1,000 and get 10 new customers, your CAC is $100.
For early-stage startups, high CAC can be dangerous especially if your customer doesn t stick around long enough to cover that cost.
If you're building a startup in 2025, you've probably felt it: acquiring users is more expensive than ever.
Recent data shows that early-stage SaaS companies are spending between $0.28 and $0.94 to earn $1 in annual recurring revenue (ARR) . That's a razor-thin margin, especially when you factor in other operational costs.
Startups Are Bleeding Cash to Acquire Users — We're Fixing That
If you're running an early-stage startup, chances are you're spending 40 50% of your revenue on user acquisition. Some are going even higher 100%+ in the earliest phases.
And that s just to get users in the door.
Meanwhile, time that should be spent improving your product is burned writing tweets, cold emails, running ads, or hunting for traction in forums.
