vibe-coded the first version of peek.money in 3 hours. it got us into an accelerator that invested $275K. here’s the exact stack 👇 1. chatgpt (customGPT) - wrote PRD, broke features down atomically 2. v0 - dragged in each atomic feature to build the UI 3. cursor -…

most pfm apps stop at “you spent $300 on shopping.” peek.money goes further: why did you spend that much? maybe you’re doomscrolling tiktok shop at 11pm, bored of your day job, chasing mini dopamine hits. we call it social context engineering - making money apps…

had an expo bug today. just switched to claude opus (yolo) in @cursor_ai, asked it to debug + plan + fix. it worked in mins. what a time to be alive...

From Google to building Peek @SherryYanJiang joins Fail in Public this Friday to unpack her journey: → Scaling Google Pay → Pivoting from crypto challenges with Bluejay Finance → Building Peek, an AI finance tool for the next wave 8500 builders. 1 banger space. 🗓️ Friday…

our team at peek.money has been deep in the guts of the app the past 2 months - rewiring infra, boosting reliability, and laying the groundwork for ai-native storytelling here’s what we shipped under the hood 🧵 💸 transactions got a smarter upgrade - new pipeline…

day 29 of daily sherryaps: balancing two businesses isn’t crazy when i am super passionate about both. the real constraint is just time, not energy as that feels almost infinite.

startup twilight zone: not pre-PMF innocent, not post-PMF euphoric.

building peek.money feels weirdly like making tiktok carousels - except it’s for your finances. both are about compressing a journey into 30s of emotion + info: 1. emotional hook + cognitive dissonance 2. under 30s 3. tension → insight 4. progressive disclosure…

every ai-powered wrapped story in peek.money starts as a janky figjam, duct-taped together with chicken scratch and chaos scribbles.

there's a quiet shift happening in how we design software. we're moving from UX to AX (agentic experience). traditional UX is screen-centric. you tap a button, product reacts, job done. every session starts from zero. designers pre-plan every path with hard-coded flows. users…

fundraising forces you to pick: be honest (it’s messy), or be impressive (it's magic). rarely both.

i went to college, got straight a’s, did a banking internship. if i were 18 today, i’m 95% sure i’d drop out and build exactly what i’m doing now

low dopamine baseline = natural savers high dopamine baseline = tiktok shoppers if you’re building for gen z, your savings app better trigger the same brain loops as social media

276 (and counting!) on the waitlist for our @cursor_ai community even this thurs at @grabsg @benln @SherryYanJiang @agrimsingh @ivanleomk @aimuggle

meta moment: tiktok taught me that tiktok shop addiction is one of gen z’s top money problems. (we see that in peek.money as well 👀)

blessed to be the first in my entire bloodline to experience twitter. my ancestors studied astronomy. i read shitposts about the astronomer cheating scandal.

just shy of 10M impressions in the last few months. biggest learnings?? 1. experiment a SHITLOAD (post more than you're comfortable with) 2. be controversial 3. remember WHY you're here. growth is a means to an end, not an end in itself

used google 5x today. 1 was “find my iphone.” is search... dying??
