В этом выпуске — история Даниила Дхавана, фаундера Rork — самой быстрорастущей text-to-mobile app платформы. https://youtu.be/A0BoFE0s150
После одного запуска и одного твита команда получила 350K в первые сутки, и в течение пары недель закрыла $2.8M pre-seed раунд от a16z, Chapter One, Founders Inc и контрибьюторов Expo / React Native.
Rork вырос с 0 до $1M ARR за 3.5 месяца — без платного маркетинга, прямо из Сан-Франциско, где Даня в момент рейза ещё спал на матрасе и платил за AI со своей карты.

Telegram, which does little policing of its content, has also became a hub for Russian propaganda and misinformation. Many pro-Kremlin channels have become popular, alongside accounts of journalists and other independent observers. Telegram was founded in 2013 by two Russian brothers, Nikolai and Pavel Durov. Given the pro-privacy stance of the platform, it’s taken as a given that it’ll be used for a number of reasons, not all of them good. And Telegram has been attached to a fair few scandals related to terrorism, sexual exploitation and crime. Back in 2015, Vox described Telegram as “ISIS’ app of choice,” saying that the platform’s real use is the ability to use channels to distribute material to large groups at once. Telegram has acted to remove public channels affiliated with terrorism, but Pavel Durov reiterated that he had no business snooping on private conversations. For tech stocks, “the main thing is yields,” Essaye said. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores.
