Indie maker Tibo Maker (Thibault Louis-Lucas) shares the playbook behind selling Tweet Hunter and Taplio to Lempire at $8M ARR in 2022: build from pain, ship fast, talk to users, charge early. He now runs a portfolio of AI tools — revid.ai, outrank.so, squad.so, SuperX, PostSyncer, bazzly.ai, feather.so — plus a free newsletter with 75k+ subscribers and a $99/month Founder Room community.
