Launch it shamelessly

Apr 14, 2024

Hello It’s been a while!

As an engineer who loves creating products, I was very frustrated because I hadn’t launched for a while.

However, I’m finally launching a new product — AutoRepurpose.io

Origin story?

To explain that, we need to go back in time to last year and to a place called Dubai.

In June last year, I joined the nights&weekends S3 IRL event in Dubai, hosted by buildspace. (if you’re curious how it was, I have an article about it → Moving back to Japan, flew to Dubai, built a new AI app)

I met so many cool ppl including Ishmeet — a passionate podcaster.

We got along, and he told me he had to spend lots of time converting his YouTube/podcast content into Twitter content, and he wanted to change that.

I was like…ok let’s build something for his problem!

That’s how AutoThread AI — a platform to repurpose YouTube as Twitter Threads

I got over 2k signups and made some money.

I really liked the idea so I expanded the support to LinkedIn posts and Newsletters

Oh and the most important thing: I rebranded as AutoRepurpose.

On AutoRepurpose, you can repurpose YouTube as Twitter Threads and LinkedIn posts with ONE click.

AutoRepurpose is live on Product Hunt now.

Your support means the world – come join the conversation and help us get to #1 Product of the Day 😸

After Bali, I stayed in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang) for a month, then came back to Chiang Mai, Thailand!

But the burning season hit us hard, so we ended up buying an air purifier lol

Still our life is good here :)

I don’t have much news every week to share unless I have a product that is getting traction.

But I’d like to share the details of my solopreneur journey here again.
