Sometimes you have to be in the right place at the right time to even recognize the problem. If you have the ability to solve it, you are well positioned to develop a unique product.

Our guest this week is Matej Guid, an academic who is already on his second company, InstaText,1 a writing assistant that uses AI to help you rewrite your text to make it more readable and understandable. It functions as a native speaker friend who goes through your text and edits it "just a little bit."

In this episode we discuss:

  • the process they went through to communicate well enough the value of their product to potential customers,

  • the importance of access to mentors and

  • what they had to do to "unlock" global sales2.
