Yeah probably more prosumer than consumer.

With cloud storage and sync, there are recurring costs.
But that’s optional. I still keep the current one time payment model. Not changing.

I’m a competitive person and I think I can achieve it (without sacrificing my time)
You probably don’t follow my journey from the start. I still work less than 30h/wk.
I probably spend more time with my family than most founders.

But it’s also pretty risky.
It’s basically an entirely new product, serving different target audience with different problems and needs.
It’s my new journey to find PMF, again.
I hope it will work out.
And this time I will continue to share my progress here.

I think this dual funnel setup can work:
- B2C: organic, word of mouth, low cost channels
- B2B: paid ads, out reach, higher CAC
Luckily, unlike KTool, there is a clear path for BoltAI to be a B2B platform.

But if I want to hit $100k/mo, it’s clear I need a more scalable revenue model than $5/mo subs.
So now the strategy is to win more business customers. Hopefully, I can use that revenue to keep supporting and improving the consumer app long term

I realized I could shift some focus to serving businesses too, without abandoning the consumer app (or worse, building an entire new product)
The B2C version is already pretty solid and feature-complete. It’s still one of the best native AI client for Mac.

Understandably as consumers hate subscriptions.
I got super cynical and didn’t want to work at all.
“It’s not worth it”
Took me a while with lot of reflection to get out of it.
