Software developer, founder, and solopreneur.
I'm Aaron Edwards, a solopreneur/indiehacker building and growing bootstrapped SaaS, AI, & WordPress products. Previously serving for over a decade as CTO of WPMU DEV, I've moved into full-time entrepreneurship with products like DocsBot AI, Imajinn AI, and Infinite Uploads (acquired in 2024), with revenue between $500k and $1 million ARR. I'm happily married for almost 25 years to Keisha Edwards, and we have three kids who are all in college.

Nearly 90 product announcements, five conferences, a talking robot, and a lot of work behind the scenes. Looking back on our first year with Josh as CGO.
