You build the product. Romy takes it to market.
When you need to “do marketing” but don't know where to start, Romy works out who your customers are and does the work to reach them. You just approve it and keep building.
Good morning, Richard.
You're 85% of the way to this month's $8k MRR goal. I found a few things worth your attention.
Today
Wednesday 12 AugustRomy finds your first users.
You can have something useful and still not know who needs it most, where to find them, or what would make them care. Broad lists create more sorting. First Users gives you a focused place to begin and a way to learn from every response.
What you get with First Users.
- Your Commercial Review: who your product is for, your positioning, and the route worth testing first.
- A reviewed group each week, with evidence and reasoning for each.
- A draft opening for every person, written for their channel.
- Your feedback shapes the next group, so every week starts with more context.
- Romy never sends on your behalf. You decide who to contact and what to say.
From a live product to a useful conversation.
Every group is read by a person before it reaches you.
1. Show Romy what you built
Share your site and the audience you think matters. If you're unsure, say so.

3. Get a reviewed group each week

Who you are
A general-purpose thinking partner that makes powerful AI useful without code, specialist software, or knowing the right search terms.
Who'll get value first
Solo founders, freelance writers, and marketers who regularly start with a blank page: a launch email, customer reply, rough idea, or research summary.
Where you'll find them talking about this
The writing and indie-maker corners of Reddit and X, and the creator newsletters that cover new tools. Indie Hackers and Product Hunt are the places to listen first.
Why you can win
Most AI still feels like developer infrastructure. You made it conversational, so people can ask, correct, and keep going without learning a new interface first.
First Users is where Romy starts. Romy OS is where it grows.
First Users is the focused product available first: understand the offer, choose a route, find relevant conversations, and learn from what happens. Romy OS is the broader commercial operating system in private testing, connecting that work to goals, content, customer relationships, and the rest of the business.
Good ideas for the bit after shipping.
Practical thinking on positioning, distribution, outreach, and the commercial work that turns a product into a business.
