A week ago, I receive a call at 12PM. It was Pavan saying: "we need to launch in 5 days". During the whole night i briefed all my team one the visuals, i worked on the copywriting and done the analysis of Clean market. Within 5 days from the very first call we were able to deliver the whole video and it reached +800k views across platforms. This is how we like to work (fast).
Prospecting tools are useless if nobody is ready to buy. That's why we built Clean. The world first AI that predicts which companies are ready to buy, right now. Here's how it works:

I've analyzed 98 launch videos from YC and Speedrun of this year. Here is what you can learn from it: 1/ Half got under 5,000 views. The top 10 got between 189K and 798K. 2/ Followers aren't a precursor of success: Top 10 median: 2,000 followers. A founder with 181 followers got 332K views. 3/ Length doesn't affect it either. Both groups sat right around a minute. 4/ A number in the first 2 lines is improving reach! > Odds ratio 2.7 (n=98). 5/ "Today we're launching" beats "Introducing." 6/ Horizontal beats vertical. All of the top 10 was 16:9. 9 of the other 88 were vertical. 7/ The product > the raise. Only one company of the top 10 mentioned funding. Humans lie, data doesn't. So I will keep analyzing every launch video that comes out of YC and Speedrun. Follow me for the next analysis!

I always succeed. I was born with asthma. Doctors said I wouldn't be able to run like a normal kid. At 17 I ran a full marathon. I started making films at 14. My parents told me I couldn’t earn money with this. At 16, people were paying me as if I had 5 years of experience Then I had a stroke. 15% chance of a full recovery. I recovered. Now, at 18, I fly to SF to make launch videos for founders. I'm telling you this because a lot of founders I meet have a story like this. But most of them still want their launch video to open on a fcking dashboard.

I'm 18. I've been in SF for the past three weeks. And everything has gone crazy. On my first day, I went for a run with the CEO of Lemlist, talked to the founder of FullEnrich, and filmed $100K robots dancing in a crowd. But beyond the density of talent, the ambition and optimism here, you learn that there are no limits. It's an illusion to think that you can't move faster, you can't work harder, or you can't think bigger. If you say what you want out loud, everyone will help you get there. Seeing what's happening here is a life changing experience. I'm so grateful I took that flight. Still a lot to do.

Hey @rchhabs ! (cc @NikolovLazar) We're organizing the world's first Phone Use Hackathon in SF! And Sentry would be a great fit as a sponsor! LangChain is already backing us. We're bringing together 100 of the best builders in SF to work on phone use! Would you be up for meeting tomorrow in SF to discuss getting Sentry on board?

An extra $50M in projected ARR: that's the figure in Chainguard's launch breakdown. The breakdown links it to one video. An old installer makes security familiar. We help you script and film yours. Book a call via my profile.
