Because it's better (versus the engineers they were able to hire).

Pivot is strong and in both cases where they went n -> 1, the pivots were dramatic. One went from building a (credit) card switching SDK to building a legal assistant AI. One went from building a fin-tech compliance product to a CRM for managing collections.

Because they went back to the drawing board, they ended up letting go of their teams and started using AI to build MVPs and then found that they could ship faster and better.

This now seems like even less useful information than before.

They literally changed to doing an entirely different business.

This would be like saying I hired two sandwich artists, but sandwiches don’t sell well, so I fired my sandwich artists and now I run a coffee shop on my own.

		You can choose to bury your head in the sand with word games. Or acknowledge that LLM is enabling single person startups. Up to you. I'm sharing information, not presenting an argument. You seem to want to argue that... something, but it is not apparent to me what it is. Whatever you choose to do with this information, it did not change reality.
