Welcome to another episode of Supra Insider. This time, Marc sat down with Kyle Ledbetter and Andy Keil, the co-founders of Dreambase—an AI-native toolset built on top of Supabase. Despite not having formal engineering backgrounds, Kyle and Andy have built and launched three fully functional products in just nine months.They unpack their unique zero-to-one process—from jamming on whiteboards to building multimodal prompts, doing bake-offs across V0, Bolt, and Lovable, and validating with real users in days, not months.

This episode is packed with insights on collaboration, prototyping workflows, and why the best AI builders might not be engineers.
