Five Rounds of Interviews at WindSurf or Less Friction Closing Deals at 835 w 6th Street

by Larry Chiang on May 2, 2025

WindSurf, It’s Larry Chiang
Problem: Your name badge station is sharpie and stickers. using 6000 year old paper tech is for non AI companies
Problem: You probably lost three million dollars in lost leads using a name badges
Well maybe $10mm at the series D valuation, and definitely $600k. Sourcing devs you guys pay recruiters $200k/week. SDR’s, I’m gonna guess. Anyway, the API disconnect from name badge to balance sheet / work flow / onboarding / GTM is a problem
Solution
Steal my idea or hire me as a uiuc Pop Up Internship. In one weekend, 1-5 uiuc will vibe code up a solution
✨ QR code scan that prints a badge ✨ parting gift via Email ✨ this is a brother printer
✨ the luma event API ✨ Collecting email for a scheduled generic campaign. ✨ The solution costs $500 and we can execute in a 30 min Hackathon
PS I can use 5 cs majors from Gamma Phi Beta at University of Tucson but that’s gonna cost a tad more
Stanford cs majors from Kappa Alpha Theta are also an option
If you get me a Custom WindSurf vest thats from Patagonia, I’ll do the vibe QR code Name Badge Solution for $900
Will you be putting a $5 deposit on PayPal, Venmo or your WindSurf Amex or Bonvoy Room Charge*
