Over the years, I have realised something simple. I have limited time. The people who use our products have limited time. And the teams who rely on us every day definitely do not have time to fight messy software.
When I started FeatureOS (opens in new tab), my only goal was to build something solid and get it to profitability. Not for vanity. Not for fundraising. But because profit gives you freedom. It gives you space to think clearly. It lets you build the next thing with intent.
That next step for me is Wovel.
A product that can serve a large market and help a large number of people. But I want to do it the right way.
Practicing restraint
To build something that scales, I have to practice restraint.
- Not doing everything.
- Not chasing every idea.
- Not adding features just because they look good on a comparison chart.
Restraint keeps the product honest. It forces clarity. It helps us focus on what actually matters for support teams: speed, simplicity, and reliability.
Focus, focus, focus
Wovel is my attempt to build a tool that does one thing extremely well.
- No noise.
- No distractions.
- No unnecessary layers.
Just a fast, simple, dependable live chat experience.
The more products I build, the more I understand this truth: great software comes from saying no far more than saying yes. It comes from respecting the time of the people who use it. It comes from caring enough to keep things simple.
That is the path I want to take with Wovel. Build with restraint. Build with intention. And build something that lasts.
