The Intimate Story Behind Onu
Some startups are born in boardrooms. Onu was born at 2:47 AM on a Tuesday, when I found myself staring at my phone, completely naked - not physically, but emotionally stripped bare by the weight of everything I was trying to hold together.
The Breaking Point
Picture this: It's late 2025. I'm running Postly, and from the outside, everything looks golden. We're growing fast, users love us, and the metrics are climbing. But behind the scenes? I'm drowning in my own success. I'm in my apartment, surrounded by two monitors, a phone buzzing with Slack notifications, and a stack of contractor invoices that I keep meaning to pay. My voice recorder is full of random thoughts I've captured throughout the day - brilliant ideas mixed with grocery lists and half-formed anxieties about whether we're burning cash too fast.
Then it hits me: I've become a prisoner in my own productivity system. I had built a company that helps others create content effortlessly, but I couldn't even keep track of my own thoughts. The irony was suffocating.
The Whispered Revelation
You know that moment when you're taking a shower and suddenly everything becomes crystal clear? Mine happened differently. I was walking my dog, Luna, at midnight (because that's when insomniacs walk their dogs), and I started talking to myself. Not the crazy kind - the processing kind. I began describing my day out loud: "Today I spent $47 on lunch, had three meetings where nothing got decided, and recorded six voice notes I'll never listen to again."
That's when it whispered to me: What if someone was actually listening? Not judging. Not analyzing for the sake of analytics. But truly listening - the way a lover listens when you come home exhausted and just need someone to understand without having to explain everything.
Why "Onu" Means Everything to Me
My last name carries weight. In Igbo culture, "Onu" means "King" - but not the conquering, dominating kind. The kind that rules through wisdom, protection, and deep understanding of his people. Building Onu feels like channeling that ancestral wisdom into silicon and code. It's not about creating another productivity tool that makes you more efficient. It's about crafting a digital presence that helps you become more yourself - more aware, more intentional, more connected to what actually matters.
The Intimate Assistant Revolution
We're building something that feels almost too personal to be technology. This isn't just about software. It's about what happens when technology stops trying to make us more efficient and starts helping us become more human. We're building it for everyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by their own success, disconnected from their own decisions, or lost in the noise of productivity theater.
With love and late-night revelations,
