$12,000 per year in AI tools replaced a $300,000 team. One person. $80M exit. Six months.....Maor Shlomo opened his laptop in December 2024 and built alone. No co-founder. No pitch deck. No funding.Six months later: 300K users. $3.5M ARR. $80M exit to Wix.A traditional team doing the same work: $300K+ before a single line of code.The CEO of Anthropic says a one-person billion-dollar company is coming by 2026.The CEO of OpenAI already has a group chat with other tech billionaires taking bets on when.These are not optimists. These are people who see what's being built.I've built five companies. Each needed a team, runway, patience.Today's founders are playing a different game smaller teams, higher margins, faster exits.Maor already answered whether it's possible.The only question left: What are you postponing because you think you need more people?
