Peter Diamandis & Dan Martell: Stop Building Apps. Start Building Products.

​You've written the code. Maybe you have a working demo, maybe even a few users. But how do you know if what you're building is actually a product someone pays for — or just another app that quietly flatlines after launch?

​In live stream session, Dan Martell breaks down exactly what it takes to turn what you're coding into a real business. How to position it. How to price it. How to have your first sales conversation before the product is even finished. What separates the builders who get traction from the ones who keep shipping features nobody asked for — and the specific mindset shift that makes all the difference. No fluff. No startup platitudes. Just a direct, tactical conversation with someone who has done it repeatedly at scale.

​For context, Dan is the bestselling author of Buy Back Your Time, founder of SaaS Academy, and has personally coached over 500+ software founders to scale past $1M, $10M, and beyond. He's built and sold multiple companies — including Flowtown (acquired by Demandforce) and Clarity.fm — and is one of the most sought-after operators in the SaaS world. He's been in those rooms, made those calls, and knows exactly where builders leave money on the table.

​This session is part of the Build with Gemini XPRIZE — a 90-day hackathon in partnership with Google and XPRIZE challenging builders to create a real AI business from scratch. $2M in prizes across 25 winners, including a $500K grand prize. Submissions close August 17, 2026.
