WHY AI STARTUPS MUST RELEARN GROWTH EVERY QUARTER

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Product-market fit resets every three months at Lovable because AI capabilities and user expectations shift too fast to rely on long-term scaling, even past $200M ARR. Roughly 95% of growth comes from shipping new features, while funnel optimization contributes only about 5%, forcing teams to prioritize velocity over polish. Influencer-driven demos, free credits, and large communities now outperform paid ads, making word of mouth the primary growth engine.
