The 10 principles to build an AI Company:
This is the biggest opportunity since the internet. Bigger than cloud. Faster than mobile.
AI isn’t one market — it’s eating all markets. Software, services, labor, infrastructure.
The value is in the application layer, not the models. Tools people actually use will win.
Foundation models are moving up the stack. Compete by going narrow and deep, not wide.
The best products start customer-back, not model-forward. Solve one job completely.
This is the Agent Era. AI will shift from chatbots to swarms of agents executing work.
Speed is everything. There’s a vacuum in every vertical. Whoever ships first, wins.
Distribution is built-in now. You’re launching into a 5.6B-person internet. If it works, it explodes.
The model doesn’t matter unless the product is great. Startups win on UX, not architecture.
Your moat is your workflow. Own the end-to-end journey. Don’t build tools, build outcomes.
