Finding the right balance between my work as a founder and my personal life, including my fitness, has always been a top priority for me. I was pretty committed to staying fit, hitting the gym regularly since 2019 – but the pandemic came and I gained everything back and more.

Earlier this year I decided to get back into shape and focus on strength training. I set clear goals and consulted friends (who are fitness coaches) until I felt confident enough to work out on my own.

I used to have a personal fitness coach and subscribe to weekly meal plans, which were great (but pricey). This kept me wondering if I could achieve similar results on my own—and save some money. This led me to experiment with ChatGPT.

I soon realized there was a gap in the market for a new kind of fitness app, which inspired me to build Fit Senpai.

We pushed hard, launching the MVP after just 6 weeks of development, and I’m proud to say we’ve hit $260 in revenue. It’s not a headline-grabbing number, but it’s a milestone, and every milestone matters.

It was once just an idea and just a ChatGPT wrapper (which I know some of you hate). But hey, it’s now starting to generate revenue.

The next steps are to grow our user base and ramp up marketing efforts or even build our own LLM.

We’re on this journey, step by step, rep by rep.
