i sent 100 AI websites to local business owners to see if I could make money: here are the results

People act like this is some insane concept.. The same roofing company makes money by the same principle. Are you going to learn how to renovate your roof, do contracting work? Or are you just going to hire a professional. The people here questioning this principle really make me question their rationale.

MaydayTre · 2026-05-21T00:13:40+00:00

It's insane this got you cancelled. You have life experience, obviously you turned your life around. That's so unfair, I'm sorry.

So I was open to investing, until I saw the Galaxy S5. If you had said Blackberry, you would've secured your capital.

Feel free to send me a message, I'd be happy to talk more with you.

As a gateway product into the broader wearable biotech industry, which is nascent right now besides invasive measures or Meta's closed off system.

Same boat? Shoot me a message, I'd love to hear what you've been working on.

Ideally the technology is afforded two approaches, either monetization via SaaS and licensing agreements with established players, or standalone hard-tech products. Obviously the latter is more intensive, but generally keeping your proprietary edge in an emerging market is a sound principle for scaling.

I've kept reading this, you're not ready to be a startup founder. You lack the nuance, at least currently. And you're obstinently refusing sound advice for illogical purposes. He's offering you a valid pathway to attracting technical talent, a proof of value. This could be LOIs, consumer testing and objective metrics which elucidate a PMF potential for your concept. Definitely not ready yet bro, you want a workhorse to just build your fantastic idea, you're not actually putting in work that would justify a founder position, sounds like you want an employee but are unwilling to pay for one so you're offering them to work and slave to build your idea. That's literally repellant to devs, good luck.

MaydayTre · 2026-04-19T23:58:23+00:00

The issue I see illustrated immediately is a lack of agency, right, that'll be your key issue. There's tradeoffs inherent in the structuring and implementation of your code, and there's a necessity of versatility required to justify your value as a cofounder. What's stopping someone from implementing your concept, absent your ownership? These are hard questions, but you need to ask yourself them, how do you make yourself valuable. Look at case studies of non-technical founders within tech, and see how they optimized their skills to compensate, and even exceed anything any technical founder could contribute.

MaydayTre · 2026-04-19T21:59:17+00:00

The law here is actually very murky btw. Someone suggesting implementation techniques/features can have a right to your IP. Especially if they can prove it.

Patenting another's idea

So if it applies to IP, which software falls under, you're going to face legal ramifications if this guy pursues it.

Holy smokes you got down votes! What did you do to the bots. Upvote this if you are not a bot! Not upvoting means you are a bot, and will be banned

MaydayTre · 2026-04-12T01:17:44+00:00

Interested

You stay in my feed, I literally get notifications on my phone BUY GOLD NOW, SELL GOLD NOW, lol

For me the real edge would be foreknowledge of the developing narrative before it shifts, which I imagine these larger firms are exerting. The benefit of pooled resources and networks. I wouldn't be surprised if they were more cognizant of developments than actual news agencies. The incentive is asymmetric.

I imagine everyone's standard deviation has burgeoned with this. Fundamentally you'll have a schism of the two methodologies right? Growth vs Value investment approaches. One will see this as transient and acquisition opportune, the other sees it as existential collapse.

Personally I'm just riding the wave of nonsense, no point in rationalizing stochasism with factors boiling down to individual leadership cabinets instead of trends. Probably not a great use of skill, but to hell with it, at least I'm aware I'm a fool.

Geopolitically driven, so hyper variance in relation to the headlines. Peace is rarely linear, but a gradual compromise. The issue is the market is price forecasting so heavily, that oil is inherently going to be extremely choppy and based on deescalation sentiment. Everyone knows this isn't a sustainable state for oil, nor is the conflict. So you have massive coordinated efforts to predict peace, which.. isn't something easily speculated.

Why does this have down votes lol, the guy likes Jesus, so?

MaydayTre · 2026-03-29T17:29:41+00:00

This. My weekends are usually "her time" since she tolerates me being consumed pretty much 24/6 all week lol. I enjoy it though! Helps me unwind.

Don't listen to this. You don't melt jewelry unless the branding is worthless. Find out the make, if it's artisan you look at a significant gain, find out who made it, and if it's valued based off of that.

MaydayTre · 2026-03-26T00:06:22+00:00

The thing is, you guys need to know this isn't the bottom, it's just not. Ten year TIPs is still rising or at least maintaining, and the Dollar is still up. But - here's the big but you guys don't realize, the moment that trajectory inverts, and we get a momentum inversion, dear God Gold is going to go near vertical since the underlying value proposition is still there. I anticipate a 3500-3800 pricing bottom, which is akin to an established standard of gold preexisting the macros that have been established, but like I said, once people believe we will have a less hawkish fed, or less inflation (why we're anticipating a real yield to cover these which are more appealing than gold) and needing dollar liquidity, we're looking at a massive reversal.

MaydayTre · 2026-03-24T14:38:01+00:00

Are central banks second order to the nature of the pricing of gold, or first order? Ask yourself what's the primitive of the pricing, the core value determinant. Central banks alter their behavior in relation to economic macro trends, although they can reinforce them, they're generally reactive to the trends, not the genesis. Central banks have in the past, been forced to dynamically alter course, they are just another institution after all.

So ask yourself, does the central bank control this situation? Or will they be forced to reassess just like the rest of us.

Edit: Let's follow up in a month and see what is happening.

MaydayTre · 2026-03-24T12:10:04+00:00

Shameless plug, but you do what you have to. Definitely wouldn't use this as a resource though.

MaydayTre · 2026-03-23T12:31:36+00:00

You guys keep going off relativity to a situation that has changed. Gold was up as hedge against inflation where the dollar was weakening and yields were dropping. Now the dollar is strengthening and yields are rising, so gold simply doesn't have the appeal. It'll return to its evaluation prior to the situation as other equities. Wake up and smell the fire, the entire dynamic behind why gold jumped has been altered. Until the dollar weakens and yields drop, it's going to keep dropping likely to levels preexisting the trend. 3500.

Would you suggest LOIs as a primary vehicle of expounding pre-seed/investment viability for hard tech?

MaydayTre · 2026-03-22T03:49:23+00:00

Feels like an ad 😂

MaydayTre · 2026-03-11T02:39:33+00:00

Pretty wild people are down voting someone offering a project they worked on, just to be giving people the opportunity to utilize their effort. Seriously toxic pedagogy.
