About Jamie

I'm Jamie Watters, a solopreneur primarily focused on building SaaS and tools that solve real solopreneur problems. My journey began in the 1980s writing BASIC on a Research Machines 380Z during lunch breaks. Starting from the ground up at Sperry Univac, I became a systems programmer, living through the great technology transitions—assembler to C to C++, hierarchical to relational databases.

Fearing my aging brain wouldn't keep up with the accelerating pace of change, I retreated to management, spending the next 20 years climbing the corporate ladder. But corporate life slowly drained the joy from work. I was successful but empty.

Then AI changed everything. It removed the cognitive barriers I feared while amplifying my decades of strategic experience. Now, while bootstrapping alongside my day job, I've rediscovered the joy of building. In just 5 months, I've created5 apps, 4 websites, and 4 agent suites—all while working full-time. I'm orchestrating AI agents to build multiple businesses simultaneously, proving that experience plus AI equals unprecedented leverage.

My goal is simple but audacious: reach $1 billion in portfolio value by 2030. Not through a single unicorn startup, but through a diversified portfolio of 10-20 AI-powered businesses, each generating $5-50M ARR.

This isn't just about the money. It's about proving a new model of entrepreneurship is possible. We're at the dawn of the AI era, and I believe the future belongs to solo operators who can orchestrate intelligent systems to build at unprecedented scale.

Right now, I'm actively building and operating 10 products across four categories:

• SaaS & Solopreneur Tools: Automated workflows and productivity solutions for solo entrepreneurs and small businesses
• Frameworks: Developer tools and open-source libraries for AI integration
• Education: Courses and content teaching AI-powered entrepreneurship
• Marketplaces: Platforms connecting buyers and sellers in emerging niches

Each project is instrumented with real-time metrics, and I share progress transparently through weekly updates. Every win, every failure, every lesson learned—all documented publicly.

Building in public holds me accountable and creates a feedback loop with the community. Transparency isn't just a marketing strategy—it's core to how I learn and improve. Sharing both successes and struggles attracts the right people and opportunities.

Plus, I want to inspire other builders. If I can show the playbook—the tools, strategies, and mindset required to build at scale as a solo operator—then others can replicate and surpass what I'm doing. That's the real goal.
