# Solo Founder Playbook

**6 startup skills for solo founders — powered by patterns mined from 101 [Starter Story](https://www.youtube.com/@starterstory) founder interviews.**

A data-backed startup advisor in your terminal (or in your browser). Every recommendation comes from real patterns extracted from 101 long-form founder interviews — not AI vibes.

## Skills

| Skill | What it does | Example |
|-------|-------------|---------|

## What's in the Data

All data was generated by the **[Starter Story Pipeline](https://github.com/yayashuxue/starterstory-pipeline)** — a 5-step process that:

1. Pulls all video URLs from a YouTube channel
2. Downloads transcripts
3. Categorizes each video into 11 startup topics
4. Summarizes and refines the raw analysis
5. Extracts cross-video patterns and keywords

We ran it on 101 [Starter Story](https://www.youtube.com/@starterstory) videos. The result:

- **11 categories**: Idea Generation, Validation, Building, Launch, Marketing, Growth, Monetization, Challenges/Failures, Team, Costs, Advice
- **80+ patterns** with frequency data
- **300+ keywords/tools** mentioned by founders

**Key findings:**
- 49.5% of founders openly discuss failure (long-form ≠ Twitter narrative)
- 74.3% use AI as a core tool
- Organic channels outperform paid 3.5:1
- Top idea origin: solving a personal problem (32/101)
- Top failure modes: multiple failures before success (15), financial crisis (13), burnout & isolation (12), building without validation (11)
