Building $1M in public
A new online business every week. Real builds. Real revenue. In public.
Every week I build and launch a new online business with AI. I show how I do it and post the real numbers. Most will probably flop. Maybe one works.

Week 19 of 52 Picking now
Week 19's build. Picked Monday, shipped Friday, and Medicare enrollment opens in ten days, so the calendar gets a vote this week.
Week 19 opens with eighteen builds on the board and the loudest deadline of the year ten days out: Medicare enrollment opens October 15, Medicare Decoder's entire season, with Scammer Checker aimed at the same protect-your-parents audience. Whatever ships Friday, some of this week's hours already belong to that window. The whiteboard is otherwise open and the idea box is live. Picked Monday, shipped Friday, numbers published either way.

The dataset build that refused to fit in a week. Five weeks in the mines, then the honest call: pivot to the sharper idea. Everything it taught shipped as BuiltByBadge, build #13. The number stays on the board because the work happened.
