In Ep. 3, Michael and Simmy explore two exciting martech companies built by Gen Z founders and discuss a few interesting business ideas after each segment. The first comes from 23-year-old Stanford dropout and Thiel Fellow: Akshaya Dinesh. Her startup Spellbound, a no-code SAAS platform, has partnered with the likes of Mr. Beast's Feastables and Ollipop. It's revolutionizing email newsletter engagement by allowing readers to purchase products, recover abandoned carts, and play interactive games all within email. The boys also cover Foreplay. Started by 27-year-old Zachary Murray, it's "Pinterest for ad creative" and offers marketers a software platform to aggregate ads that catch their eye and then collaborate with team members to create their own campaigns. Foreplay is generating well into the seven figures per year as the first step in the modern marketer's journey.
