Ladder no longer sponsors or supports the “I’ve Had It” podcast. Making light of anyone’s death, especially a victim of violence, does not reflect our values. Thank you to everyone that took the time to make their concerns known to us.

Yes, 99.9% of Duo apps look like trash now but what did you expect?

Most companies won’t redesign for a new device until it has millions of users, so the first year is always a little messy.

So, startup idea for you coming from someone who has sold tens of millions of dollars of agency services: a Duo app agency.

Think about who’s buying this thing! Someone paying $2000+ for a phone the week it comes out is about as valuable a customer as you’ll find on the App Store.

They pay for apps, they pay for subscriptions, and they leave reviews. Most companies want those people badly, and most don’t have a spare team to redesign their app for a brand new screen. Hence, why the Duo apps look mostly trash now.

How to start a duo app agency:

Pick the categories where the bigger screen matters, like recipes, reading, trading, design and music. Record a short video of their app looking cramped on the Duo next to an AI mockup of what it could look like. Charge $40k to $75k to ship the redesign in a few weeks, and a monthly retainer to keep it right as Apple updates things.

One of the most obvious startup ideas out there right now. I’d start this today.

Sometimes the best startup ideas are the most obvious!
