We've spent our weekends inside a blinds manufacturer's WhatsApp groups.
Every order starts with a guy on a ladder, a tape measure and a spiral notebook. He photographs the page into a group. Then it waits until someone in the office turns it into a quote. 🧵

Seeing this first-hand with a blinds manufacturing business.
No software would've fit how they work. So we didn't make them change. We built around their WhatsApp group, their handwritten site sheets, their way of chasing payments.
They still don't think of it as software. That's how you know it worked.
Mark Cuban on the next job wave:
"Software is dead because everything's gonna be customized to your unique utilization. Who's gonna do it for them..."
The answer is people who know how to fine-tune small LLMs on private data.
Not prompting. Not API wrappers.
Actual custom models trained on your business.
And almost nobody knows how to do it yet.

My friend’s a PM. His Notion is a graveyard, his journal died on day four, his ChatGPT chat scroll into the void. @Meta AI sits in his WhatsApp making him stickers. Good stickers. Not what he needs.
So I built him that. A memory that lives in WhatsApp, the app he never closes.
He told it once his mom’s meds run out near the 20th. It nudged him on the 19th.
What’s the thing you keep forgetting?
My founder friend ships every D2C order and just waits. A week later a chunk come back, damaged, no clue why.
RTO is the silent margin killer: forward + reverse shipping, dead stock, sunk ad spend. Lakhs/month.
So I built Cleared, flags which orders will RTO before you ship.
