After 1 month of launching firsteyes AI solo - here's the completely honest picture:

What worked:
→ Reddit - by far the best channel. Genuine conversations converted better than anything else.
→ Direct DMs with personalised messages - not templates
→ Building in public on X - people root for solo founders

What didn't work:
→ Generic promotional posts - zero traction every time
→ Cold email - response rate was painfully low
→ LinkedIn posts about features - nobody cared

Biggest lesson:
I spent the first 2 weeks talking about what my product does.
The moment I started talking about the problem it solves - everything shifted. People don't care about your product. They care about their problem.

Numbers till now:
→ 800+ visitors
→ 90+ signups
→ 220+ audits run
→ Small $$ revenue generated
→ Zero paid ads

Happy to answer any questions.
