This conversation with @joshmohrer is so good. Beyond the fact he is funny and honest, I really believe this is the future. I have many friends who have been through multiple VC backed, consumer companies now taking their startup ‘MBA’ and building for themselves.
AI will unlock the first 1 person $1B company. That is now a widely held belief, and Josh Mohrer's (@joshmohrer) Wave App (@waveappai) may become that company. As of December, the company was already generating $5M ARR and shows no sign of slowing, with only a single team member: Josh.
I talked to Josh about how he went from having ZERO coding ability to using AI to not only teach him how to code and build Wave fast, but also for customer support, marketing/design, legal, and a bunch of other company functions.
There's basically no better example of a 2025 startup that embodies "AI native" than Wave, and Josh shared all of his tips and methods in this conversation.
Josh also shared stories of growing Uber in the early days as the team's NYC GM, and what it's like running a huge team at a hyper growth company vs. running a one-man startup using AI.
