I'm Launching a Startup to Stop Startups from Spamming
Introducing CredsAI, my new tool for engineering trust, not just volume. Here’s how to get free beta access.
TLDR; Stop spamming. The secret to growth isn't more volume; it's less noise and more credibility. Most GTM tools treat markets like logic machines, but markets are human systems built on psychology and trust. So, I built a tool to engineer that trust. It’s called CredsAI, and I’m announcing its beta launch today. Oh, and you can get a month of free access.
In this issue, we'll tackle:
Why your current growth strategy is probably just expensive spam.
The counterintuitive truth: Credibility, not volume, is your most capital-efficient growth lever.
Introducing CredsAI: My new startup that turns your story into a sales weapon.
How to get a month of free beta access (hint: it involves a little social proof).
Let's dive right in.
Your Growth Strategy is Broken (And It's Making You Look Desperate)
Most founders think growth is about sending more emails, hiring more SDRs, or buying more tools. We’ve been taught that business is a numbers game—a funnel to be optimized, a process to be automated. More activity, more shots on goal, more, more, more.
But here’s the uncomfortable truth: the more volume you add, the less credible you look.
In today’s AI-saturated world, where every inbox is a warzone of automated follow-ups and soulless templates, attention doesn’t scale with automation—it collapses under it. You’re not just failing to stand out; you’re actively training prospects to ignore you.
The real bottleneck isn’t reach; it’s credibility.
Early customers, investors, and journalists aren’t swayed by your perfectly designed pitch deck or your relentless email sequences. They make snap judgments based on a much more primitive, human metric:
Do I believe this person is worth my time?
They’re looking for signals of authority, focus, and authenticity. The problem is, most GTM tools are built for a game of logic, but markets are human systems, driven by psychology, trust, and story.
That’s why I built CredsAI—an AI-powered platform designed to help you engineer credibility into every single touchpoint.
Instead of adding more noise to the world, CredsAI helps you craft a sharper signal. It’s a system built on the methodology I used to bootstrap my last company to a 10x revenue exit. Here’s how it works:
It Generates Outreach That Actually Gets Replies: Using your blueprint, it crafts hyper-personalized emails and pitches that feel authentic and command attention. We’re seeing average response rates over 10%—practically unheard of for cold outreach.
It Coaches You for High-Stakes Conversations: The AI coach preps you for the calls that matter most, guiding you through openings and credibility triggers so you walk in with unshakeable confidence.
It Builds Your Custom Credibility Engine: The system learns from your call transcripts and email responses, constantly refining your messaging and turning your unique founder narrative into a scalable GTM framework.

Two Brutal Truths About Growth
This brings me to a couple of counterintuitive principles that CredsAI is built upon:
Value Drop #1: Volume is the enemy of efficiency. We’re told to scale our outreach. The math seems simple: more emails = more leads. It’s a lie. More generic outreach just leads to lower response rates, a damaged reputation, and a higher customer acquisition cost. One credible, well-crafted conversation is worth more than a hundred cold touches.
Value Drop #2: Credibility is the most capital-efficient growth lever. You don’t need a massive sales team to break through the noise. Early customers and investors are buying you—your story, your conviction, your unique point of view. When you learn how to weaponize that, you stop competing on volume and start winning on trust. That’s how you get traction without wasting precious capital.
My Offer to You: Free Access for a Little Social Proof
If you’re an early or mid-stage founder, you don’t need more tools to create noise. You need a system to build credibility. CredsAI helps you write emails that get responses, master conversations that win deals, and turn that credibility into your most unfair advantage.
I’m launching the beta version of CredsAI today, and I want to get it into the hands of founders who are ready to play the game differently.
For a limited time, I’m offering one month of free access.
The catch? In exchange for the free month, I ask that you share some excitement about CredsAI in a LinkedIn post and tag me. If you’d like to share some constructive criticism on Linkedin, that’s fine too, as long as it’s done tastefully. That’s it. You get a powerful tool to accelerate your growth, and I get some much needed attention online.
