I will not promote First paying customer after 5 days in public beta. Is this a good signal? [i will not promote]

Yesterday we got our first paying customer after a “silent launch” on Tuesday. Out of 9 users who signed up, one ended up subscribing for $20 yesterday. Getting those 9 users in was a real struggle tho.

Is this stat a good signal? How long after launch did you guys get your first payment?

Depends, what is the product?

It’s an AI agent for event planning. You type a prompt and it sets up registration/mailing etc.

Thanks a lot man! I’m building an AI agent for event planning. You describe your event in prompt and it designs you a custom website, email invites etc.
