    I think many of us can relate with this guy, no glamour, simple guy, looks humble and definitely a hard work person. One of the best stories imo.

    I wish time had been spent better describing two things: why a paid subscription for a screenshot tool is needed in the first place and why his tool was different / better than the existing tools.

      got this answer from AI : Based on the context provided, someone might pay for a screenshot service for various reasons. They may need to keep records of website or application appearances for testing, debugging, or compliance purposes. Additionally, they might require automated screenshots for marketing materials or reporting, making it more convenient and efficient to outsource this task.

      Because it helps developers write less code, which helps businesses save time and money.
      I know it might seem crazy that people would pay for something like this, but that is exactly why I created Starter Story - to show you the (often) ridiculously simple ideas that you wouldn't believe make $100K/year+ (and changed developers lives).
      This is the kind of stuff that gets built in www.starterstory.com/academy

      It’s a service for developers. If a company wants to show screenshots of websites in their app, this tool makes it easy to automate by adding just a couple lines of code. I agree it could have been explained clearer in the video. Not everyone knows technical words like API.

      I’ve worked with big pharma and we’ve built something similar a few years ago. They used this screenshots for two purposes: UAT and compliance. We screenshot thousands of pages across multiple websites.

  • @jeimagu
    @jeimagu วันที่ผ่านมา

    I guess the 4k in server expenses is cause Puppeteer eats a lot of resources, and he needs to open a lot of browser instances with puppeteer to take the screenshots

    I don't know if it's just me, but the async recording of the "interview" kinda throws me off, and it prevents you from digging deeper into the things about their stories that are actually interesting and different from others. I hope that you do real-time interviews with founders in the future, because they are much more authentic and informative for the viewers, not to mention fun to watch. All the best!

    The $4000 for TypeScript is misleading. It‘s a free programming language. He probably pays this money for some hosting provider to run the headless browsers.

    hey Pat, I have enjoyed watching these stories, but the last few stories with your new interview setup seems a bit disingenuous as it appears you are re-recording your questions to the interviewee. It feels a little disconnected.
