You decide where Anarlog goes. Use 
John as a sounding board, then make the call. Turn Anarlog into a product people keep using and a business that lasts.
The role
- Grow Anarlog into a product people keep using, recommend, and pay for.
- Study product data and talk to users. Set the goals, choose the roadmap, and make the final product calls.
- Own product quality and growth, from activation and retention to demos, pilots, and sales.
- Form hypotheses and act on them independently. Use team meetings to share context, challenge uncertain decisions, and coordinate work.
- Use frontier models and trusted contractors when they help you ship faster. You still own the quality of the result.
Craftsmanship
Care about the details users feel. Move quickly and ship work you would put your name on.
Thirst for growth
Look for harder problems and sharper feedback. Use AI to widen your range, then act on what you learn.
You might be a fit if
- Your personal website shows taste, judgment, and finished work.
- You have taken a project from idea to users, revenue, or another measurable result.
- Your strongest skills are product, design, and growth. You are ready to become excellent at sales.
1 week
Complete company and software onboarding. Learn how John and the team think about product, craft, and growth so you can operate independently in week two.
1 month
Make progress every week. Study the product and business, choose your first hypotheses, and ship at least one significant change.
1 quarter
Run the product and growth loop independently. Ship, study what changes, work with the Video Creator when the strategy needs it, and build on what can compound.
1 year
Your product and growth decisions have compounded. People keep using and recommending Anarlog, and the business has a durable path forward.

What is Fastrepl, and what does it care about?
- Fastrepl is a software studio between Seoul and San Francisco. We build Char, an AI scratchpad for getting things done, and Anarlog, a private meeting notepad.
- We care about craftsmanship and thirst for growth. Read the manifesto for why we exist and how we work.
- Ship work you would put your name on. Learn from users, improve the product, and grow the business.
What is Anarlog?
Who sets the goals and roadmap?
- You do. After learning from the data and users, you set Anarlog's goals, roadmap, and tradeoffs.
- Bring uncertain decisions or company-wide commitments to John for discussion. You still make the product call.
How technical is this role?
- You need enough technical judgment to ship product changes and direct engineers or contractors.
- You can use frontier models and trusted contractors. You remain responsible for what ships.
How much sales will I own?
- You own sales from finding leads through discovery, demos, and paid pilots.
- Discuss pricing and company-wide commitments with John. You decide how to run the process.
Can I change the growth strategy?
- Yes. Our current bet is that individual users bring Anarlog into their teams, then companies pay for it.
- Choose another path if the evidence points there.
