I don't really have the network to vet my idea, to tell me wether it is good or bad, something worth building or not? Something worth diving into or not.
My idea is https://mnexium.com - it is a LLM infrastructure layer. All the things you need to do to get an LLM up an running Mnexium would handle.
The reason I want to jump into this start-up is mainly because I'd use this app, and I build it because I needed something like it. Is that enough signal to continue to build?
I would really love to hear others opinions on what they would do? If they've navigated something similar?
I think the last bit I'd add to the above is I have this nagging feeling that I want to build something, from scratch. Build it to the best of my limited ability - but I don't want to fail.
Appreciate it
The issue is that you are quite late to the party and I don't see a differentiator in your product.
Regardless, I would focus on getting a few paying customers first to validate the idea while still working a job so you can eat.
While I agree that competition exists and it is validating that the labs and others are working on solving this problem. I am trying to focus on a broader solution. Competitors will focus only on memory - but not so much on the other infrastructure requirements to create an AI app (chat history, etc).
I am also trying to create a moat around the difference in how we validate and create memories. Most will have a single pipeline, I want to have multiple and compare - this does increase my COGS however.
Appreciate the message -
May I ask how long it took you to find your first user? and the path you took to find said user(s)?
