10 Projects I've Built and 1 Thing I Learned From Each

from Varun Mayya Hosted by Varun Mayya

Some of them worked, some failed, some got acquired, and some taught lessons that ended up shaping everything we do today.We talk about what it was like building products in very different eras of the internet, how our thinking changed over time, and why distribution, timing, and execution often mattered more than the technology itself. Along the way, we discuss projects like Jobspire, Avalon Scenes, God-in-a-Box, AI Avatars, Autocode Pro, Video Vault, and Unleash The Avatar, sharing what went right, what went wrong, and what we’d do differently if we were starting today.More than anything, this is a conversation about experimentation. Why running lots of small bets teaches you more than chasing one perfect idea, how to think about competition, product-market fit, and timing, and why many of the lessons that built AEOS today came from projects that never became big businesses.
