The last week has been beautiful
sometimes you have to step back from the momentum and ask yourself if you’re truly scaling or just getting bigger
we’ve been growing fast (400 signups daily kind of fast, still with zero paid marketing so far)… but I realised we hadn’t scaled the foundations to match
People first, people most especially… then systems, undocumented processes that had become bottlenecks in hiring, unit economics, security(daily hack attempts, but we tighttt), cloud infra (after burning so much money, you’d realize leaving it to auto-scaling wouldn’t save you lol), all needed a rethink
I’ve finally understood that Growth is getting bigger, Scaling is becoming capable of handling bigger
It’s uncomfortable to pause when things are moving tbh.. but building a company is as much about knowing what to fix as it is about knowing what to build next
I’ve also met some really cool founders and operators and had conversations with almost everyone I’ve looked up to in the tech ecosystem. Grateful for the access and the clarity that csme from it all
We have a much clearer picture of what needs to happen next
Hold your seatsss, we are going to be all over your timeline 🙂↔️
