How do you come up with the idea for Pykaso AI?

I got the idea of Pykaso AI after @lilmiquela became viral on Instagram.

When I saw her numbers I knew this was a golden opportunity.

Pykaso AI was a race. We had to be the first in this niche. We did. And we're still are.

How did you build the initial version of Pykaso AI?

Pykaso AI was built using cutting-edge AI technology and advanced software tools. The initial prototype involved LoRa training, face swap, image-to-image, and an AI image generator, all integrated into one platform. The founders focused on creating a user-friendly experience, despite facing challenges in developing and integrating multiple AI tools seamlessly. It took several months to build the first version, and the experience was both challenging and rewarding, as they aimed to be the first in their niche and provide a comprehensive solution for creating AI characters.

How did you launch Pykaso AI and get initial traction?

Pykaso AI was bootstrapped. As my co-founder and I were the only investors, we needed to create game-changing tools as fast as possible to attract users.

I advertize Pykaso on socials. From Linkedin to Instragram we are everywhere.

Thanks to that, Pykaso AI was profitable since day 1.

What was the growth strategy for Pykaso AI and how did you scale?

Our main strategy is to grow organically on socials.

We post our own content but also reach out to creators for them to speak about Pykaso AI if they find our tools useful.

What were the biggest lessons learned from building Pykaso AI?

Success is not about plans nor perfect execution. It's just about taking action as soon as possible.

Make yourself visible because people don't know you. Take action to transform your ideas into a real thing.

Don't be short-sighted. You need to picture the long-term. For instance, we don't rely on adgencies. We pick the people we want and we train them. It takes more time but it's worth the effort because we have skilled people in our team tailored for our needs.
