Why embark on this journey now?
Because artificial intelligence has fundamentally reshaped the landscape for founders and small teams brimming with big ideas. In the past, launching a startup meant a constant battle against resource constraints – a scarcity of designers, developers, and even hours in the day. It forced a difficult choice between speed and quality, between rapid deployment and meticulous execution.
But in 2025, AI has dramatically altered this equation. It's akin to having a dedicated team on call 24/7, without the burdensome overhead. AI hasn't diminished the craft; it has simply eliminated the friction.
This liberation allows me to channel my energy into what truly matters: engaging with customers, continuously enhancing the user experience, and ultimately building a solution that genuinely simplifies life for wineries and their tasting room teams.
Without a doubt, this is the most enjoyable and fulfilling building experience I've ever had.
