🎯⚡ Speed. Timing. Execution. The Unholy Trinity of Modern Tech. The browser wars just reignited — and this time, it’s AI-first. 🤖🔥 When Perplexity launched the Comet Browser, the world noticed (someone at Google definitely did). When they made it free (after starting at $200/month), the world understood: 🕒 If you don’t move fast, you don’t matter. Remember Dia, the first true AI-native browser? Brilliant tech, early mover — but not fast enough to scale or seize mindshare. Fortunately, it got acquired just in time. And just as we were exploring Opera Neon — sleek, promising, but still invite-only and subscription-based — Comet went full-public and full-throttle. 🚀 (The early invite to try Opera Neon triggered this post) Why would anyone pay to beta-test when a full-featured, free alternative is already rewriting the rules? That’s the brutal truth of today’s tech cycle: ⚙️ Once momentum shifts, recovery costs triple — and time is unforgiving. We’ve seen it again and again: 💬 ChatGPT made dozens of LLM startups irrelevant overnight. ♟️ Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral — each move like chess, but only the fastest players stay on the board. 🧭 Startups that spend six months “refining strategy” often wake up to find the market… gone. At TIU Consulting, we remind our partners of one rule: 💡 Perfect is expensive. Late is fatal. Speed isn’t chaos. It’s: ⚡ Shorter feedback loops 📊 Ruthless prioritization 🔁 Data-driven pivots 💪 Courage to ship, learn, and iterate In an AI-accelerated economy, time isn’t money — it’s survival. 👉 How are you institutionalizing speed? Are you structured to pivot in weeks, not months? Or still polishing your slide deck while someone else ships your idea? 💭 We’d love to hear how your orgs are adapting to move faster — without breaking trust or quality. — Team TIU Consulting References: 1️⃣ Opera Neon ships to invite-only users https://lnkd.in/g9HVwg-N [Opera Neon ships to invite only users] 2️⃣ Alphabet stock drops after Perplexity launches free Comet Browser (~$15B lost) https://lnkd.in/gGhavn2q #AI #Innovation #TIUConsulting #MoveFast #BuildBetter #Agility #PerplexityComet #AIBrowser #Execution #StartupStrategy #Leadership
