In this week’s Quick Coffee, Felix and Pat explore one of the most critical shifts happening in the startup ecosystem: founders must now become creators. They discuss how AI has made product building radically easier, but also why that’s no longer enough. With attention harder to earn than ever, the conversation dives into why distribution, personal branding, and authentic content are the new core skills for founders. Learn how teams are using Lovable and Superscale to build and distribute fast, and why your audience may matter more than your product. Grab a coffee and listen in!
