There is a lot of talk in the startup world how AI makes people so fruitful that it can give birth to a generation. “Solo Unicorns” -1 billion dollars worth of personal companies.
Although an original solo is a legendary creature, Israeli developer Moor Shlomo provided tremendous evidence on Wednesday that this concept could not be impossible.
Shlomo sold his 6 -month -old, bootstrap -coding startup base 44 for $ 80 million, Veks Announced Wednesday. And the contract was in cash, Vox confirmed the Tech Crunch.
In fact, it was not a billion dollars or near it. Vox confirmed that Shlomo was not really solo – he had eight employees. They will collectively receive $ 25 million out of 80 million as a “maintain” bonus. Vox refuses to give details about this part of the contract, as if he had to stay in his job for full payment.
Nevertheless, the price of the rapid rise and impressive sales of twenty -44 has been a matter of that Veb coding community.
In his six months as a stand alone company, 2044 allegedly increased to 250,000 users, who killed 10,000 users in their first three weeks. According to Posts of Shlomo X and LinkedIn on them, the company was profitable, which, even after meeting LLM’s high token costs, made a profit of 9 189,000 in May, which he did not do publicly.
Twenty -44 mostly spread through mouth words as 31 -year -old programmer Shlomo shared his travel journey on LinkedIn and Twitter. He said the project started as side venture Israeli tech news site catch.
“Base 44 is a moon shot experience – helping everyone, technical or not, prepare software without any code.” LinkedIn explained to them When he launched it for the public.
This is one of the new crop of vibing coding products designed for non -programs. Users enter text indicators, and produces full applications with a platform database, storage, verification, analytics and integration. It also supports email, texting and maps with roadmap for more enterprise grade security support.
Twenty -44 is not unique in this area. Other Veb coders such as adaptive computer handle similar infrastructure work. But the rapid rise of Base44 was the same.
Shlomo was already known in the Israeli Startup community by its previous startup, visionary partners -backed data by the Analytics Company Explorium. His brother AI is also a security startup, a co -founder of token security, who has yet collected $ 20 million and a group of Israeli tech angels led by a notable capital (former GGV Capital).
He signed partnership agreements for big Israeli tech companies such as Etoro and similar web.
After posting Anthropic’s Claude LLM via AWS instead of models through Openai, after posting your decision to use the Claude LLM-for the reasons for the highest cost-performance-AIMEZON invited to the Tel Aviv AWS event last month for the Demo for Demo. Shlomo did the documentary.
Shlomo, “so far crazy f *** trip.” Posted on LinkedIn When announced the news of the acquisition. Regardless of development and profit-or really because of it-he sold his bootstrapped company because “the scale and volume we need is not something we can grow physically… If we were to be physically successful, Boat Strepeted, I am very excited to see our new speed”.
For this part, Vox picked up a proven, fast -growing, local vibing platform for a relative song because of his youth. Open paid $ 3 billion for wind surf, which was founded in 2021.
Vox, of course, offers a nine -code website building that is professionally designed. Adding a lucrative LLM Veb coding product to its offer is a logical step.
