FOUNDERS
Building again after an exit; building Made to Pop in public after killing a prior idea (Pepper) via a validation sprint; PM/Dev who enjoys making unique designs.
PRODUCT–FOUNDER FIT
The founder felt the pain of slow creative production for social: custom images boost engagement, but Canva/Figma workflows are too manual. After trying (and killing) a different idea, they focused on automating on‑brand covers and a content ‘assembly line’ wired to APIs/Zapier—directly addressing marketers’ bottlenecks.
