Do rankings really matter to builders and founders? I think they do, but probably not in the way most people imagine.

Seeing MySpec move from outside the top 1,000 to the top 100 isn't something we consider a success. To us, it's a sign that we're slowly reaching more people who share the same approach to building software.

Since day one, MySpec has been built around a simple idea. Great software doesn't come from writing better prompts. It comes from asking better questions, defining clearer requirements, challenging assumptions, and making better product decisions before development begins.

To be honest, building MySpec wasn't the hardest part. Helping people understand that mindset has been. In a world where AI can generate code in seconds, it's easy to believe that better prompts are the answer to everything. We believe the real advantage comes from having clarity before you ever ask AI to write a single line of code.

That's why this milestone means so much to us. It tells us that more founders, developers, and builders are beginning to resonate with this way of thinking.

I also believe this is a mindset every founder should embrace. AI will continue making software development faster, but speed alone has never built great products. The founders who win won't just be the ones who build the fastest. They'll be the ones who make the best product decisions.

We're still in Open Beta, and we're improving MySpec every week with feedback from the community. If this way of thinking resonates with you, we'd love for you to give MySpec a try and tell us what you think.
