Smoothie is a free newsletter that sends founders startup opportunities through visual storytelling. Why visual storytelling? Because typical newsletters are boring. Be on top of emerging opportunities like: DAOs, GPT-3, CRISPR, and Carbon Capturing!
TLDR; Smoothie is a free newsletter that analyzes data trends and sends founders startup ideas via visual storytelling (sort of like a comic book).
That way, you get the best opportunities through content that's "easy to digest" 😉
Hi Product Hunt 👋
I’m Matt Kim, Co-Founder of www.withsmoothie.com.
In 2018, I quit my job in Toronto and bought a one-way ticket to San Francisco with no plan. I lived in hostels trying to get a job in tech. I managed to work at Sensor Tower and Facebook for the last 3 years.
Earlier this year, I quit my job to pursue my own startup!
After months of hard work, we’re ready to share what we’ve been working on.
I’ve been passionate about entrepreneurship my whole life. But as a founder, it was hard to find the next big startup idea.
Where do you even start?
Marc Andreessen said, “In a great market - a market with lots of real potential customers - the market pulls product out of the startup.”
So I asked myself...why not start with the market?
That’s why we made Smoothie 🚀
It’s a newsletter that sends data-driven startup ideas through visual storytelling.
Why visual storytelling? Because typical newsletters are boring.
Subscribe to Smoothie today, we're excited to have you join!
Let me know if you have any questions (:

@okazu thanks so much for supporting Oz. you're been a HUGE help and we couldn't have built Smoothie without you. I'll be making a separate Thank You message for you 😉
Woohoo very excited about this launch and looking forward to receiving the newsletter! I'm really looking to see how the synergy sparks between the two spectrums of the target audiences (founders + investors). I can definitely see more extensions beyond the newsletter as well.
