Short answer: Jordan Metzner says he started in Bolt, moved to Cursor with OpenAI's Codex, and uses Vite React, shadcn and Tailwind; Gemini also runs insurance compliance checks and loan eligibility reports.
From Episode 14: Inside the $1.4 Trillion Solopreneur Market + the Tools We Built (ft. Hooman, Collective CEO), starting at 7:59.
Hooman Radfar [7:58]: What'd you use for the front end work?
Jordan Metzner [8:00]: Oh, yeah. Good question. I think I built the first version in Bolt just, like, really, really quickly just to, like, get something up. Yeah. But I quickly moved it into, like, my IDE, which is Cursor, and I used OpenAI's Codex to just do some coding for the front end and wire everything up and make sure, like, all my APIs work. So I like to use ViteReact as well as shadcn and Tailwind mostly because, like, they're pretty responsive and they look pretty good. And then I use this special library for filtering that I like that always, like, makes it look pretty sexy. Alright. Let's move into insurance. So I did something similar for insurance. So I had kind of, like, your general insurance policies here. I figured you would, like, input them or import them, and then you can run this thing called the compliance check. And then essentially, Gemini will review your insurance policies and based on the data, it's gonna give us here some recommendations, and I'll zoom in for those. But it says, moderate compliance needs, some work in workman's comp and cyber liability. And then it says here, I need to renew my workman's compensation that it lapsed.
Jordan Metzner [9:06]: So, insurance is something that we don't think about top of mind every day, but, know, like, I'm sure it's important to small business owners. It's critical to make sure you don't lose coverage. So, yeah, that's how the insurance compliance check works. And then lending, something pretty similar. So we've got the holdings from our three companies. Remember, Hooman's company doing 27,000? So we've got, like, a little bit of financial readiness here with our holding co. And then what you can do is you can generate a risk report as well as run your, like, loan eligibility. So this is also using Gemini. I think down here, it kinda has, like, the idea of, like, whether we'd get approved or not and kind of what the status is, etcetera. Obviously, we'd use, like, out outside lending tools, but that's a little bit there. And then I have like an overall AI insight, so you can just kinda like get some overall insights of the business overall. I don't know if this one's working that well, but this is kind of the idea. So you get kind of these insights on your business and a little bit of a mix of all of these things in one single dashboard. So, alright.
Jordan Metzner [10:08]: I got another thing to show you, but I'm not let's cover this one first, and
Hooman Radfar [10:12]: Wait, there's more.
Jordan Metzner [10:14]: There's Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Let's go to the next one. Let's go.
