Learnings & highlights

• Zero-to-traction across B2B and B2C: bootstrapped where ownership mattered, raised where leverage required it, sat in CTO, product, and founder–CEO seats.
• Neuron Gym hit 400K+ downloads with zero paid marketing. Neuroscience-grade design beats growth hacking when the product is the loop.
• Ojam grew to 100K musicians without a chart-friendly hook because the editor itself was the network: co-creation as primary feature.
• IPTO is the long version of every prior bet: rights, payment, and provenance as a single API surface for AI and the creators feeding it.
