Growthlog 18: Direct nudges and side projects

Hello! This is Tom from ???Growthlog.

I hope you didn't miss me too much.

Summer time and Olympics are keeping us all busy.

Here's a quick update on what's going on.

I flew to Porto for my brother's wedding and some family time.

It was fun.

Sightseeing, coffee, pastel de nata, playing basketball, and quadbiking.

I'm sad Lithuania's main basketball team didn't qualify for the Olympics, but I've been enjoying lots of games.

However, our 3x3 team won bronze, which is exciting! ??

Fingers crossed for the discus throw final with two Lithuanians participating.

Side project as a?marketing

It's cool to see when a side project as a marketing strategy works.

Before launching Wordware, the team behind launched Twitter personality tool.

Essentially, it's an AI agent that reads your tweets and prepares a surprisingly accurate and shareable report.

Here's mine.

Why does it work?

You go viral, get lots of traffic and present people your offering.

If you want to build similar AI apps, Wordware positions itself as?the tool to use.

Show, don't tell.

According to the founder Filip Kozera, they reached 3 million users?in 8 days!

But it seems like they will have to shut it down due to high costs of?going viral.

Good problems to have, I guess?
