Ship a broad tool, then let the segment with the most emotive joy tell you who to focus on

Beat the blank page by walking users through tiny surprising steps until they surprise themselves

To let yourself and the company scale, hand off the work you're best at and find joy in enabling others

Map real user jobs to search queries and follow the experience all the way to the magic moment
