Benjamin Sehl: Canvas narrows the gap to building at your own standards
benjaminsehl · x · 2026-10-02
@benjaminsehl argues Canvas helps founders express product beliefs faster to fail and iterate sooner, while PMF still takes time. His real point: building to your own standards was out of reach until you became a better developer — that gap is now shrinking. Top craftspeople like @jh3yy and @suprb aren't irrelevant; they're turbocharged. Quoted: tools fix the two-weeks-to-OK part, but can they compress years of learning what customers want?
