Building in Public at 50: Can My Agentic AI Studio Find Its Market?
Hello peer indiehackers,
I'm a 50-year-old serial entrepreneur who created ConsoleX AI, an Agentic AI Studio nearly a year ago. While it hasn't achieved the success I initially hoped for, I've continued to iterate and improve the product rather than giving up. Despite my age, I take pride in continuously learning and positioning myself at the forefront of generative AI technology.
The Good
I genuinely believe I've built an underrated product that delivers value - I use it daily for everything from research and content creation to publishing. The platform helps solo entrepreneurs like me to create custom agents and build virtual teams that boost productivity while reducing costs.
The Bad
After sustained investment (I previously had a team of three, now it's just me), I'm dealing with mounting debt and significant psychological pressure. Beyond the work itself, I'm battling anxiety and constantly questioning whether my product truly provides value to creators like me or if I'm just seeing what I want to see.
Moving Forward
Starting today, I'm committing to building in public on Indie Hackers for the next three months. I'll share my experiences using my own product to build agents and my journey running this business. I'm eager to hear feedback from fellow indie hackers - both positive and negative perspectives are welcome.
Looking forward to connecting with you all!
P.S. If you're interested in trying the product and providing feedback, DM me your username, and I'll upgrade you to our premium plan with unlimited access to large language models and tools.
