About Me

I am Thibault Louis-Lucas, but most people online know me as Tibo Maker. I am 34, based in France, married, father of 2, and still happiest when a small team ships something real before the market has time to overthink it.

Quick backstory: I crashed a bunch of startups before anything worked. In 2021, I came back with a simpler rulebook: build from pain, ship fast, talk to users, charge early, and let revenue tell the truth. That mindset led to Tweet Hunter and Taplio, a Product Hunt Maker of the Year award, and the portfolio I am building now.

Today I am building AI, SEO, video, social, and publishing tools: Revid, Outrank, SuperX, PostSyncer, Feather, plus a pile of free mini-tools for makers and business owners. I share the real playbook with 60k+ founders and makers every week: the wins, the failed bets, the launches, the SEO experiments, and the tiny product decisions that compound.

2021 reset

Fast shipping, small teams, user validation, revenue as the truth.

Built and sold

Tweet Hunter and Taplio, after years of products that did not work.

Maker proof

Product Hunt Maker of the Year 2022 and multiple SaaS products past $100k MRR.

Now building

Revid, Outrank, SuperX, PostSyncer, Feather, and free tools for makers.

My core belief is simple: build the tool you needed yesterday, sell it to people who feel the same pain, and keep shipping until the product gets embarrassingly useful.
