I need your help 😭😭

I’m building my first startup, and right now I’m in an incubator.
To make it into the Top 30 by engagement, I really need more likes and comments on my posts. 🥹
A little about me.
I’m from Kyrgyzstan. A few weeks ago, I moved to another country to fully dedicate myself to building my startup.
While most of my friends have regular jobs, I’m spending almost all of my time behind my laptop trying to build something that people will actually love.
I’m building LinAI — an AI that helps people grow on LinkedIn. It analyzes your profile, finds what’s holding you back, and gives you clear next steps to get more opportunities, clients, and visibility.
This is my first startup.
I honestly don’t know if it’s going to work, but I’m giving it everything I have.
If you have a few seconds, please leave a like ❤️ or drop a comment 💬.
It might seem like a small thing, but it would help me a lot.
Thank you to everyone who’s supporting me on this journey. It truly means everything. 🫶

I’m already on the shortlist to get kicked out of the incubator 😭

Because I still haven’t earned a single dollar.
For the past few weeks, I’ve been building LinAI instead of looking for shortcuts. Maybe that’s a mistake. Maybe it’s part of the process. We’ll see.
LinAI helps professionals understand what their LinkedIn profile is really signaling, what’s limiting their growth, and what they should do next.
You paste your profile, and LinAI gives you:
• Your First Signal
• Your biggest blocker
• Your Next Move
• Content ideas tailored to your goals
I’m looking for honest feedback from real people.
If you have 5 minutes, please try it and tell me:
What confused you?
What felt valuable?
Would you actually use something like this?

Every piece of feedback helps. Thank you 🙏

Two weeks ago, I became a startup founder.

Fifteen days doesn’t sound like much. But somehow, it feels like I’ve lived through months of emotions already.

In just two weeks, I’ve faced more obstacles than I expected. There were moments when nothing seemed to move forward. Every solution created a new problem. Every step uncovered another challenge.

At one point, I seriously thought about giving up on the idea.

Then, during a founder session, we had the chance to meet the co-founder of cc.dev. I was looking for motivation, trying to fill a growing sense of doubt, so I asked him:

“How do you stay motivated when you face constant rejection and things don’t work out?”

His answer caught me off guard.

“I don’t really have that problem. I believe in what we’re building so much, and I’ve taken on so much responsibility, that I simply don’t allow myself to think that way.”

Something changed in me after hearing that.

I realized that motivation isn’t always the answer. Sometimes conviction is.

Building a startup is uncomfortable. It’s uncertain. It’s emotional. But maybe that’s exactly what growth feels like.

Day 15. Still building.

I’ve been thinking about how much discomfort drives progress.

If our ancestors were completely comfortable living in caves, they probably wouldn’t have had much reason to leave. No need to build better homes, create new tools, or search for different ways of living.

A lot of innovation starts from something being wrong.

Something is too difficult, too slow, too expensive, or simply uncomfortable enough that people start looking for a better solution.

The same thing happens in our personal lives.

Most of the biggest decisions I’ve made didn’t come from comfort. They came from a feeling that something needed to change.

Maybe discomfort isn’t always a bad thing.

Sometimes it’s just a signal that you’ve outgrown where you are.
