WE JUST HIT 1,000 USERS 🎉

8 days ago this didn't exist

Today there are 1,000 founders on Strivle.

This is honestly CRAZY. I built this last weekend because I was bored, fully expecting nothing to come from it, and now there are 1,000 of you here building, posting, helping each other, telling your friends about it. Watching this community come together has been one of the best weeks of my life.

To every single one of you posting your progress, dropping feedback in my DMs, sharing the platform without me asking, defending it in Reddit comments, just being here, thank you. This is your community as much as it's mine and I mean that. None of this happens without you.

Here's where we're going from here.

The next few weeks are going to be massive. Mobile app dropping on the App Store soon so you can post from anywhere. Public profile pages so your work shows up on Google when people search you. More verification integrations beyond Stripe so pre-revenue founders, mobile founders, and people using other payment processors can all be seen for what they ship. Bookmarks, better DMs, smarter notifications. A real Signal score so the ranking reflects more than just MRR.

We've got TinyLaunch live right now and Product Hunt right after, going for #1 of the day. If we hit it, this thing goes to a whole different level.

But the part I'm most excited about isn't the features or the milestones. It's that we're building the place builders should've had a long time ago. Somewhere your work gets seen on merit. Somewhere the loudest voice doesn't win. Somewhere being early actually matters because the network you build here will compound for years.

You're early. You'll always have been early. The first 1,000 on a platform like this become the names everyone references later.

Let's keep going. Next stop, 10,000.
