I’m so excited. I just saw $50K MRR on the Stripe dashboard and couldn’t believe my eyes. Insane to realize it’s only been 4 months.
Now I have another problem. Am I getting too big to sell? I’d be interested in selling the startup to work on the next phase in AI companionship.

Congrats on the milestone and thanks for sharing!
It just baffles me people are willing to pay for this kind of service.
Personally I’d never venture in these kind of businesses because you’re manipulating people’s emotions. It’s the same with dating apps in general, you’re selling a dream that for most people that use these kind of apps will never actually come true in life.
There will be the occasional person that uses it for therapy, but the majority of these users are most likely lost souls looking for some kind of affection from anyone.
Capitalising on that feeling is a good way to make money, but it doesn’t sit well with me personally.
