We raised £4m and built a product nobody asked for
Two years, eleven employees, one launch, and almost no users. Dov walks us through every decision that felt correct at the time.
Dov Krasner raised four million pounds on a deck, hired eleven people, and shipped a product that acquired, in his words, "not zero users, which was somehow worse". What makes this episode unusual is how reasonable every decision sounds as he explains it. There is no obvious villain and no single fatal error — just a sequence of sensible-seeming choices that added up to a company solving a problem nobody had. We spend the last twenty minutes on the shutdown itself: how you tell eleven people, what you owe them, and what he would do differently about that conversation specifically.
