How did you come up with the microstartup idea?
David Lynch
I struggle with organizing and reading tweets I bookmarked a lot. There were lots of gems regarding development tips, business tweets, and lessons from indie hackers. But they were almost buried and I can't connect to my daily learnings.
When I tried a few tools available in the market, none suits my need. My requirement was not just a bookmark manager but to be a system to curate and read regularly. Having this will help me curate high-signal tweets from Twitter and connect it to my learnings.
That's how the idea of Tweetsmash came.

How did you find your first customers?
David Lynch
We found our first customer through a tweet about a discussion for an idea that syncs bookmarks to Notion. Though we didn't have that feature built at the time, we were really excited to try it out.
So we just shared our product under replies and said Notion sync is under development. Our first customer is KP, he tried our product immediately and really like it. After we shipped the Notion sync in the next 2 days, we manage to show him a demo of it. Eventually, he became our very first customer.
He is our primary supporter ever since. The next 2-3 customers also came from his shoutout tweet
