The rise of solopreneur !
A solo founder just sold his AI startup to Wix for $80 million. Just after six months of building 🤯
This might be the most impressive acquisition of the year
Israeli founder Maor Shlomo launched Base44 without external funding as a side project after finishing reserve duty
He built an AI app-maker where anyone could create software with a simple prompt
In 6 months:
▫️ 100,000+ users
▫️ Partnerships with eToro and Similarweb
▫️ $189K profit
▫️ 6-person team
▫️ Acquired by Wix for $80M (possibly more with earnouts)
Maor now joins Wix, but Base44 stays as a standalone brand, on a mission to replace entire software categories using natural language.
The age of vibe coding and solo AI builders is just beginning 🔥
