AI Tool for Writing Like Human, No-Code Tool for Video Editing, and When NOT to Build an AI Agent

Hi everyone 👋

It’s Chris & Daniel, from Startups.fyi.

Something hit me recently.

Out of 8 billion people on this planet, guess how many are billionaires. Go on, guess.

Around 3,000. That's 0.00004% of humanity.

Professional athletes in major leagues? Even fewer. People who have ever been to space? A few hundred in all of human history.

Now here's where it gets interesting. You are reading a newsletter with 15,800 subscribers. On a planet of 8 billion. And before you say "that's not that impressive" — think about what those 15,800 people are actually doing.

While most people are doomscrolling, these 15,800 are studying founders. Reverse engineering business models. Spotting opportunities before they blow up. Quietly taking notes on how the game is actually played.

Sound familiar? That's you. That's why you're here.

The billionaires, the athletes, the astronauts — they all had one thing in common before they made it. They were paying attention when everyone else was distracted.

You already have that habit. This newsletter is just the fuel.

Now let's get into what we found this week. Remember, if this email was forwarded to you, you can subscribe for free and get instant access to all past editions.

We’d love to hear from you—if there’s anything you'd like us to cover, just reach out on X and say hi! 👋🏾.
