Recently, I left an AI startup and embarked on my one-man army journey, starting to build my own product.
While build my product by bootstrapping, there are both advantages and disadvantages.
Pros:
- Higher efficiency, easier decision-making
- Very low communication costs
- You can follow your own instincts without having to compromise between various stakeholders
- More freedom in managing time, even more than with a full-time remote job, as there’s no contract
Cons:
- Small team means limited power, so everything needs to be done by yourself
- Constant feeling of time scarcity
- Marketing budget is extremely limited, almost zero
- Occasionally, it can feel lonely
What do you all think?
By the way, my first iOS app is about to launch:

It aims to help everyone live better and achieve more happiness and fulfillment.
