The podcast explores the journey of Daniel Gräfe, a software engineer who transitioned from working at Google to running his own desktop software business. Initially driven by the need for a graphing calculator app, Daniel developed "Timing," an automatic time-tracking application, and later, "Cotypist," an AI autocomplete tool. He recounts porting his first app to the iPhone in 2009 and the early success he had on the App Store. Daniel also shares his experiences at Google, where he learned essential software engineering practices, and the factors that led him to leave and focus on his apps, including the desire for more control over his career. He emphasizes the importance of marketing, customer validation, and focusing on B2B opportunities for indie developers.
