Justin Mitchell, Founder of Cleft Notes, is a USA entrepreneur who will be speaking at the Interceltic Business Forum in Galway in April 19th.

5:15pm Roundtable,  “How you launch a startup and go global on a tiny budget.”

Tell us about the latest startup you’ve founded?

Cleft is a voice first AI notebook designed for the neurodiverse. Cleft lets you communicate complex thoughts, journal your off the cuff ideas, and turn any idea into written text instantly with just a quick recording. We use on device transcription so your voice is never processed by a 3rd party, and all your notes are encrypted and private by default. Record your voice, let the AI turn it into written notes, edit to your heart’s content and then share that note anywhere. 

During the Interceltic Business Forum you will be speaking about how a startup can go global on a tiny budget. Is that really possible?

Contrary to what Silicon Valley would have you believe, yes it absolutely is possible to launch to millions without breaking the bank. I never pay for ads, am not already famous, and don’t even leverage email lists yet all my projects have thousands of users within week of launch.

The next Interceltic Business Forum will be in Ireland. Why do you like Ireland so much?

There’s just something about the air in Ireland. It’s the only place on earth where I can instantly feel calm as soon as I set foot off the plane. I love the food, the people, and of course the scenery.
