I've literally built the entire MVP of my startup on Claude Code and now have paying customers. I've got an existential worry that I'm going to have a SEV incident that will trigger a house of falling cards, but until then I'm constantly leveraging Claude for fixing security vulnerabilities, implementing test-driven-development, and planning out the software architecture in accordance with my long-term product roadmap. I hope this story becomes more and more common as time passes.

Well, don't be shy, share what CC helped you build.

There’s still a stigma. I think people are worried that if it gets out that their startup was built with the help of an LLM, they’ll lose customers who don’t want to pay for something “vibe coded.”

Honestly I don’t think customers care.

I used the analogy to how online dating started. I remember [some] people were embarrassed to say they met online so would make up a story. We're in that phase of AI development, it will pass.
