Guest: Fong Wai Hong (Chieftain & Co-Founder), StoreHub
Startups have speed; scale-ups have bureaucracy. But with the right AI tooling, can a mature company of hundreds fight with the agility of a solo founder in a garage?
Fong Wai Hong, Chieftain & Co-Founder of StoreHub, joins BFM’s P&L for Part 2 of our series on "The New Math of Business Building, Powered by AI." He argues that the gap between an "average" and a "great" AI user isn't small, it's 100x, and demonstrates how this leverage allows mature organisations to automate away bottlenecks that used to take months.
We discuss:
Vibe Coding Defined: Wai Hong demystifies the 2025 buzzword. It's not just using ChatGPT; it's non-technical staff building full apps via conversational interfaces, effectively bypassing the need to learn HTML or syntax.
The 100x AI User: Why "average" users type single prompts sequentially, while "great" users leverage compute, running multi-window, multi-hour concurrent debates between models to solve complex problems while they sleep.
StoreHub’s AI Stack: How the company nurtures an internal "AI Builders Community." We look at their tiered approach: Gemini for everyone, but specialised tools like Claude Code and Cursor for power users building internal solutions.
Case Study: Automating Hiring: Wai Hong shares how he personally built a system in two days that cut hiring response times from 3 weeks to 24 hours, handling screening and video interviews for 10,000 monthly applicants.
The Death of Agile: Why methodologies like Scrum (built for weeks-long cycles) are obsolete when AI compresses 5 days of work into 4 hours. Wai Hong argues engineers must shift from "translators" to "builders."
The Agentic Enterprise: Moving beyond chatbots to true agency. We discuss sophisticated workflows where AI conducts deep research on sales leads instantly, tasks that were previously impossible for humans to do at scale.
CEO as the Bottleneck: A warning to leaders: delegation breaks down with AI. Wai Hong argues that CEOs must personally understand LLMs and agentic workflows, or risk leading their companies into a tsunami blind.
