Speaker (Matt Wolfe) recounts leaving VC-backed startups after about 10 years to go solo. They began learning AI and building workflows, tools, and agents to automate repetitive business tasks (accounting, paperwork, design, coding, marketing, sales). Their goal is to run the organization with just themselves plus AI; they state they are about 80% of the way there (20% remaining).

Chapters

I've been running VC backstorips with a lot of people, like big teams and a lot of overhead. 10 years and eventually I was actually tired of working with people and then the AI happened and then I saw this whole opportunity for me to actually start working solo. So I went solo. I hired cto, I hired CEO. So I left the startup and then I started learning AI and I started building this little workflows, tools and then later little agents that would just do the most repetitive work that I do myself. So first I had to do everything myself completely like accounting, paperwork, design, coding, marketing, sales, everything. Then I start using AI to solve everything one by one and my goal is to basically be the first who solves the whole thing. And basically my whole organization will run, just me and AI. I'm not there yet, so I'm about 80% on the way, so it's 20% left now.
