"We shipped our MVP in 2 weeks instead of 2 months. The overnight builds feature is a game-changer for startups moving fast."

Sarah Kim

Founder, Early-Stage Startup

The Challenge

Before discovering Breathe, our small team was stuck in a vicious cycle of: - Manual code reviews taking 4+ hours per day - Constant context switching between feature development and bug fixes - Code generation sessions that required constant supervision - Iterating on feedback took days, not hours "We were working harder, not smarter," recalls Sarah. "Every AI session meant re-explaining our codebase. We were wasting more time managing the tool than building."

The Solution

By adopting Breathe's /cook workflow, the team transformed their development process: 1. **Describe intent, not code** - Team members describe features at a high level 2. **Overnight execution** - AI works while the team sleeps 3. **Morning review** - Wake up to working code, review and iterate 4. **Persistent context** - AI remembers project structure across sessions The team now spends mornings reviewing AI-generated code and afternoons planning the next iteration.
