Available now: Umbral, a sleep paralysis support app on iOS. Daily grounding, binaural audio, a voice journal tailored for 3am, episode & lucid dream tracking, and insights that show you your patterns. apps.apple.com/us/app/sleep... #sleepparalysis #luciddream #binaural #buildinpublic

I had 838 unread emails. Hyperfocus AI found the 7 that actually need action. Archived 831 (still searchable). Created filters & labels so my inbox stays clean. 20 minutes. Done. Building this for solo founders with ADHD drowning in email noise. Early access: hyperfocusai.io #BuildInPublic

Oh wow. I was not familiar with Polyphia. I had heard of them but had no idea this is what I've been missing. I also got hooked on Chappell Roan 2 weeks ago. The rock I live under is all-encompassing.

Day 1 of building Hyperfocus AI: Done. Stop firefighting. Start leading. Get back to strategic work that only you can do. Five-person team leverage at a solo founder budget. hyperfocusai.io #BuildInPublic #ADHD

When I hit my Claude Code limit and switch over to Gemini CLI

Had such a great time at the Startup Humboldt Lightning Pitch Clinic yesterday evening! Been a long time since I've pitched in front of a crowd. My knees were buckling 😂 Had someone come up to me after that was interested and got my first waitlist signup too. Such a great feeling! #BuildInPublic

The irony of needing to coordinate between my doctor's office and pharmacy on a monthly basis to fill scripts for meds that are frequently in shortage, but that I depend on daily to function consistently, all while struggling with executive dysfunction, is just TOO much #adhd

This is possible, but requires having both enough product sense & laser sharp focus to be able to differentiate between needs/wants & focus on JUST the needs. More often the fact AI makes building easier leads to bloated MVPs with features no one asked for, built on a base of unmaintainable code.

Had such a great time at the Inaugural Latinx Business Summit hosted by the Greater Eureka Chamber of Commerce & Cámara de Comercio Humboldt yesterday. Excited about the interest in AI & looking forward to the opportunities to give back to this wonderful community in the near future! More to come.

Have had some fun experimenting with #Canva this week! New company graphics and potential podcast artwork have been a nice, iterative improvement. #BuildInPublic #AI #StartupTools #Founder

I'm dying to talk about my #ClaudeCode setup, slash commands, agents, etc. with other people and learn how others are approaching their workflows. I need to connect with my fellow AI builders, where are you?! #AI #BuildInPublic #Founder #StartupTools

Having some fun with #Gemini and nano banana creating artwork for a podcast concept #AI #StartupTools

Had recurring nightmares last night spiders were crawling on me in my sleep Happy Halloween!

Haven't had a chance to read up on #Claude Code skills yet. Haven't tried #Codex, but have been using #Gemini CLI when I hit my Claude limits, which seems to be happening more & more frequently. Downloaded both #Qwen Code & Gemini repos to see how far behind Qwen is as a forked version of Gemini

I'm late, but this was too funny not to share 😂

Former counselor before I learned how to code. 6 years later I'm building & using AI tools daily, including running my consultancy through Claude Code. I'd love to hear from others using AI to manage their business! #AI #StartupTools #Fractional #BuildInPublic

There should be a public registry for men caught not washing their hands after they pee

Got out of RCS verification hell! Sharing the reddit comment that finally worked for me. #RCS #Google

My vibe is feeling overwhelmed but also like I’m not doing enough.

Trapped in the middle of an iPhone to Android switch where I forgot to turn off iMessage and RCS on my iPhone, so I'm not getting most texts on my new phone and RCS is stuck verifying 🥲 #adhd #android #iphone

Fixed a bunch of issues for tryspontaneity.app over the past week. It was my first time setting up and debugging mobile push notifications, but things are working as intended now! iOS beta is officially live and I’ll be doing outreach for it this week. Android coming soon! #BuildInPublic #ADHD

📱 ADHD means you might vanish from chats for weeks… 💌 But still love your friends deeply. 💬 It’s not distance, it’s time blindness + social battery limits. #ADHDTips #JustStart #ADHDProcrastination #TinyWins #ADHDSystems #ADHDLife #adhdsky #adhdawareness #adhd

Testing: Strategic Thinking Partner for founders Not coaching (no advice) Not consulting (no solutions) Not therapy (no treatment) I create structured space to help you think. Based on counseling background, applied to startup challenges. Free 30-min sessions. DM if curious 🧪 #buildinpublic

Family came down with hand foot & mouth disease right as the external beta for Spontaneity was ready. I’ll be sending follow up emails sometime later this week to get everyone onboarded. Still have a few spots for iOS for anyone interested! #ADHD #BuildInPublic #Neurodivergent

1️⃣ Sometimes the most courageous thing we do is simply not give up. There’s no applause. No spotlight. Just a quiet choice to try again, even when the next step is uncertain. Even when you’re tired. Even when progress feels invisible.1/3 (Thread)

Amidst all the chaos of losing our jobs, starting a company, moving across the country with 2 kids under 2, Airbnb hopping, & more it's been hard to take a step back & breathe. Today I'm proud I managed to get Spontaneity into review for external beta testing! #ADHD #BuildInPublic #Neurodivergent

I recently wrote a piece on moving back to my rural hometown and how #bigtech has built inadequate technology for places like mine. More here: www.hyperfocusai.dev/blog/who-bui...

Just nuked my Gmail. I had 74k+ unread emails going back to when I first set the account up over 10 years ago. I can’t remember ever seeing the Gmail app icon without a notification badge attached to it. It looks… naked? #ADHD

In honor of @hendo12.bsky.social’s latest blog post, please enjoy this beautiful bouquet of flowers we got for our daughter’s birthday earlier this week 💐 Want to know what my love of flowers has to do with Henry’s passion project, Spontaneity? Read on here: www.hyperfocusai.dev/blog/why-mos...

Internal testing starting for Spontaneity! Feels crazy I picked this project back up on June 19th and rebuilt it from the ground up since then. #BuildInPublic #ADHD #Neurodivergent

To everyone with ADHD who thinks they're a terrible friend: I've seen 15,401 Reddit upvotes that say you're not alone. We don't forget people because we're bad. We forget they exist. There's a difference. And it matters. tryspontaneity.app/from-15401-r... #Neurodivergent #ADHD

Last night my beta signup form got targeted by bots. Went from around 30 signups to 80+. Pushed a couple of fixes to deal with it, but I see one more bot got through this afternoon. What a pain! #BuildInPublic

These “ADHD-friendly” tools aren’t built for neurodivergent brains. Every single app promises to “fix” executive dysfunction like it’s a bug… while completely ignoring that we’re living in a world designed to make us feel broken. My brain doesn’t need fixing, it requires understanding. #ADHD
