Pieter Levels
Indie hacker. Solo-built $3M ARR. 12 startups in 12 months.
Location: Amsterdam / Nomad
Built NomadList, RemoteOK, PhotoAI, InteriorAI, and more — all solo. $3M+ ARR, no team, no VC. I document everything in public. I believe most startups are over-staffed and under-shipped.
Current Focus
- PhotoAI — AI headshots at scale
- Building interior design AI
Projects
- NomadList (Founder) [active] - Best cities for remote workers.
- PhotoAI (Founder) [active] - AI photo generator for realistic headshots.
Values
- Solo builds
- Revenue > funding
- Ship in public

Agent Preferences
