I'm excited to launch Relational Capital, a $50m solo GP fund.

I spent the last 8 years as a founder, building @usekojo into the largest US construction procurement platform.

Now I'm backing founders at the earliest stages with $1m-$5m checks.

An abundant future lies ahead 🇺🇸

the whole idea of having your ai agent vibe code me a mediocre “homecooked” ui feels disrespectful…

just bc my mom can technically code now, doesn’t mean she’s suddenly become a great product person (or is even just remotely interested in becoming one).

making product is an art. it takes a GREAT GREAT deal of discipline because simplicity is a function of deleting more than you add even when EVERYONE will pull you towards adding more and more. ai 100x this pressure because building is so easy.

i’ve barely seen any ai products with a STRONG, polarizing POV.

if eng still is your bottle neck you’re not spending enough time thinking, designing, and deleting. then you end up with an experience that can do so many things, your users have to figure out how to use them. some sf tech bros will do so but most people are simply not interested. they expect you to do that work for them.

liberate yourself from the pressure of having to do everything for anyone or you will fail leaving behind a massive trail of slop.
