Pre SideGPT
Product acquisition
Built Feather and sold it to Tibo for $250,000, establishing Bhanu's reputation as a serial SaaS builder and funding future projects.
→ $250k exit
SideGPT growth — organic SEO
Seo organic google
Grew SideGPT primarily through Google and other organic channels. No paid ads or outbound sales — all inbound from search traffic. ~50,000 visitors/month mentioned at time of recording.
→ 18k MRR, ~50k visitors/month
MRR $18k
SideGPT scaling — AI agent driven conversion audit
Ai agent cro
Deployed an OpenClaw sub-agent that signed up as a real user, walked through the entire product onboarding flow, mapped conversion drop-off points, and produced a prioritised list of fixes (e.g. single testimonial on pricing page, missing onboarding email sequence).
→ Identified low trial-to-activation conversion as key bottleneck; full onboarding sequence drafted
SideGPT scaling — AI driven churn/retention analysis
Ai agent retention
Connected OpenClaw (Jarvis) to ChartMogul dashboard. Agent identified a September MRR spike that disappeared in December, traced it to activation drop-off, and created a retention specialist sub-agent (called 'Brute') with a scoring framework: >50% query volume drop = 25 churn-risk points, zero queries for 7 days = 30+ points, etc.
→ At-risk customer identification framework built; targeted email campaigns drafted
SideGPT scaling — AI driven follow up & sales pipeline
Ai agent email crm
Gave Jarvis read-only API access to Fastmail (business email). Agent scanned ~100,000 emails going back 3 years, identified overdue follow-ups (e.g. a prospect who said they'd upgrade after one month), auto-drafted follow-up emails, and quantified revenue lost from missed follow-ups.
→ Multiple follow-up drafts queued in inbox; revenue leakage surfaced in dollar terms
Mission Control HQ launch
Product led twitter audience
Built Mission Control HQ as a SaaS dashboard that acts as shared knowledge base and group chat for multiple OpenClaw sub-agents (keyword research, email marketing, retention, competitor research, coding). Marketed via podcast appearances and X presence. Reached 10k MRR.
→ 10k MRR
MRR $10k
Ongoing — AI agent daily task management
Ai agent daily ops
Jarvis provides a daily briefing each morning: which follow-ups to send, calls to prep for, and marketing tasks to execute. Removes decision paralysis — Bhanu went from 'not knowing what to do' to having a prioritised task list generated automatically every day.
→ Described as most productive two-week stretch ever; 160 daily active users on SideGPT maintained
