@TeemuSo
I'm a solobuilder with background from AI & data science. I'm running a business and bootstrapping my own SaaS apps for AI-driven development.

I've solo-built few SaaS apps for customers in the last year, for whose I'm working as a fractional CTO to help them go from first customers to scale.

My own SaaS (security for AI coder) LaunchGuard got its first customers in the last month, and I wish to allocate more hours into it!

I've been digital nomading from Europe and SEA for the last 1.5 years, and so far I love it! Next up possibly LATAM.

The biggest unlock isn't capital or ideas. It's the room you sit in.
Small and committed beats large and lukewarm every single time.
We run epic experiments together. The latest one below.
THE CHALLENGE

We challenged a YC-backed company to a public launch battle. Two weeks, no mercy.

THE WIN

We won. With a fraction of their audience.

THE PRODUCT

We turned the playbook into a product. Kaijubeam, a prelaunch platform for founders who don't have big audiences. → kaijubeam.com

THE LAUNCH

8 judges, MicroLaunch and ActiveBuilders as launch partners, and SuperX as founding sponsor. One week to test assumptions.

THE RESULT

We ran Kaijubeam for one week. Some users found real value, and we validated 2 of our 3 novel mechanics. The third can only be tested at scale, with enough of the right people to set the standard and culture. Kaijubeam is paused until the next iteration.

WHATS NEXT

We're now in SF Bay Area.New experiments in play.
