Welcome to a brand new episode of The PhraSEOlogy + AI Show! Today, we’re diving deep into the art—and science—of accelerating product-market fit with the power of AI and smarter entrepreneurship. Host Filipe Santos sits down with David Hirschfeld, founder of Techies Inc. and creator of the “Launch First” methodology, whose 30+ years in the software startup world have made him a trusted advisor for startups seeking rapid progress while minimizing major pitfalls.

In this conversation, David unpacks the crucial lessons he’s learned from decades of building, scaling, and rescuing software ventures. He explains why most founders fall in love with their solution instead of obsessing over the customer’s problem and shares how his hands-on, clinic-style approach—with a strong emphasis on pre-launch sales, customer feedback, and efficient niche targeting—shifts the odds of startup success. Plus, David demystifies ways AI is revolutionizing everything from niche identification and workflow automation to team building and sales outreach.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur hustling towards your first real revenue, a marketer looking to align closer with product teams, or a software leader seeking to optimize your people and processes, this episode is packed with actionable insights you won’t want to miss. Let’s get into it!

Get ready for an inside look at the world of online scams—and the cutting-edge technology fighting back. In this episode of The PhraSEOlogy + AI Show, host Filipe Santos sits down with legendary scambaiter Kitboga, known for outsmarting scammers using creativity, humor, and now, a powerful AI toolkit. Kitboga shares stories from his nearly eight years of undercover work, discusses the rise in increasingly sophisticated and aggressive scams, and reveals how AI-powered bots are turning the tables on call centers around the globe.

You’ll hear the wild and sometimes hilarious tales behind Kitboga’s iconic personas—crows and all—and get a behind-the-scenes look at his latest project, Saraf Secure, software designed to detect and prevent scams before they start. From wasting scammers’ precious time to gathering critical threat intelligence, Kitboga explains how technology and a little bit of imagination are making a real difference in the fight against online fraud.
