Congratulations, it sounds like you’re able to recognize the need for a product, and are on your way to a successful future. At age 13, I was only mastering StarCraft enough to not be embarrassed by my friends.
Can you talk about how much of your journey was on your own initiative, and how much of it was supported by the adults in your life?
How have you found balance in running two startups, while also engaging in “normal” preteen/teenage activities that support social skills in adulthood?
My parents bought me a computer at 11.
They only know I do websites, its my own initiative
I saw there was a need to get around school filters and play games at school and thought it would be fun to try.
I haven't had to update ShuttleProxy in 6 months and don't really work to promote it or buy new domains when old ones get blocked. I'm in the process of selling it.
All my friends my age are kids also develop websites and we are all discord friends.
I'm Tristan I founded https://shuttleproxy.com/ which is a proxy for getting past school blocks and https://shuttle.lol/ for playing games like Roblox from your browser. We serve 1.5 million visits a month over across dozens of domains.
I recently founded https://shuttleai.app/
ShuttleAI is an AI research company and model serving platform that allows you to run AI models. Cheap, scalable and production ready. We have a discord bot providing a free midjourney alternative in 4,200 servers with over 550,000 users.

Ask me anything
2. What do your parents do?
3. How have your parents been able to help you?
For ShuttleAI, I made 70% of the commits, the frontend and backend and I have a cofounder who develops the entire API. https://github.com/shuttleai/shuttleai-discord/graphs/contri...
