Why I’m Building in Public as an Solo Founder

I’m building in public as I explore AI, build products, and work toward creating a sustainable internet business.

I’m a computer science student.
My long-term goal isn’t simply to become a better developer or get a job at a technology company. I want to build useful products, create sustainable online businesses, and eventually achieve financial independence as a solo founder.
I’m interested in AI, SaaS, startups, developer tools, and the growing world of one-person internet businesses. What excites me most is the possibility that one person can identify a real problem, build a useful solution, reach customers around the world, and create something sustainable.

I’m still at the beginning of that journey.
I don’t have a successful SaaS business. I don’t have a large audience. I’m not writing from the position of an experienced founder who already knows the answers.
But I want to document what I discover along the way.
This website is where that journey begins.

1. Why I’m Interested in Building in Public

    For a long time, I’ve been interested in technology—not only how software works, but also how products become businesses.
    I enjoy discovering new services, exploring products on Product Hunt, reading stories from Indie Hackers, and studying how small teams and solo founders build companies.
    The questions that interest me are often business questions:

    • Why did this product succeed?
    • What problem does it solve?
    • What made the product different from its competitors?

    2.What I’m Interested In

      The main topics I plan to explore include:

      • AI and practical AI tools
      • AI-assisted software development
      • SaaS and software businesses
      • Solo founders and indie hackers
      • Product Hunt launches
      • Startup and SaaS case studies
      • Developer tools
      • SEO and content-driven businesses
      • Building products in public

      3.Where I’m Starting

        I want to be honest about where I am today. I’m a computer science student, and I’m still developing my technical and business skills.
        However, I have limited real-world experience. Instead, I want this website to reflect the process of learning, researching, building, experimenting, making mistakes, and improving.
        Some posts will be based on my own projects and experiences. Others will analyze products, founders, and companies using publicly available information. When I’m sharing an opinion or a hypothesis rather than a proven fact, I’ll try to make that clear.
        I expect my understanding to change over time.
        That is part of the reason I’m building in public.

        4.What I’ll Write About

          I want to focus on content that helps people understand how AI products, SaaS businesses, and internet businesses are discovered, built, launched, and grown.
          Some of the content I plan to publish includes:


          I’ll explore AI tools, AI-assisted development, LLMs, and practical workflows for developers and builders.

          Possible topics include:

          • AI coding tools
          • AI tools for product research
          • AI workflows for solo founders
          • Practical AI development experiments


          I’ll research how individuals and small teams validate ideas, build products, find customers, and grow sustainable software businesses.

          Possible topics include:

          • SaaS idea validation
          • Finding problems worth solving
          • Getting the first users
          • SaaS pricing
          • Building and launching an MVP


          I’ll analyze products and businesses to understand what may have contributed to their growth.

          Rather than simply introducing a product, I want to examine questions such as:

          • Who is the customer?
          • What problem does the product solve?
          • Why might customers pay for it?
          • How is the product positioned?
          • How does it acquire users?
          • What can other builders learn from it?


          I’ll study product launches, founder stories, and lessons from people building businesses independently.


          I’ll document my own progress, experiments, projects, lessons, and mistakes. I want to share not only what works, but also what doesn’t.

          5.What I’m Building Toward

            I’m interested in creating value through different types of digital assets, including:

            • SaaS products
            • Web applications
            • Content websites
            • Newsletters
            • Digital products
            • Useful tools and resources

            I want the content I publish to become more useful over time. I want to build relationships with people who are interested in AI, SaaS, software products, and independent entrepreneurship.

            6.Why I’m Building in Public

              I’m building in public for several reasons. First, writing helps me learn. When I research a product or explain an idea, I have to organize what I know, identify what I don’t know, and think more carefully about the topic.

              Second, public progress creates accountability. It is easy to keep ideas private and postpone projects. Publishing creates a reason to keep learning, building, and improving.

              Third, I want to connect with people who are interested in similar things. I’m interested in meeting developers, solo founders, indie hackers, product builders, and people exploring AI and SaaS.

              I don’t know exactly what I’ll build in the future. But I want to document the journey honestly.

              7.What You Can Expect From This Site

                I plan to publish a mix of:

                • Practical guides
                • AI and developer tool research
                • SaaS and startup case studies
                • Product and business analysis
                • Product Hunt breakdowns
                • Personal experiments
                • Build-in-public updates
                • Project write-ups
                • Lessons from mistakes

                8.This Is the Beginning

                  I’ll keep learning, researching, building, and sharing what I discover.
                  This is the first step.
