Hi, I'm
Nicolas Van
Hoorick.

about.
Currently, I'm building a stealth loyalty project.
Previously, I built SeatFinder to 80,000+ MAU and hundreds of thousands in revenue.
I studied electrical engineering and finance, then got pulled deeper into software, markets, and infrastructure.
Today, I split time between Sydney, Brisbane, and San Francisco.
I like planes, lifting, long walks, good books, fast learning curves, and building things that make me restless enough to keep going.
dreams.
- Become a billionaire by 30.
- Make Australia the richest country in the world.
- Go to space.
- Fly a Pilatus PC-24 myself, not just sit in one.
- Own a farm in New Zealand.
- Visit every country.
hacks.
- No-gym fitness: 500 pushups, 100 weighted squats with a heavy backpack or suitcase, and 200 crunches a day. Split it morning, afternoon, and evening; it takes less than an hour. I did this and benched over 100kg without a gym.
- Three-day subjects: use
/learnin ChatGPT, upload every tutorial, and compress a 13-week university subject into a few focused days. - Repeat checks: if I check the same thing twice, I try to turn it into an alert, scraper, or spreadsheet.
learnings.
- Consistency beats intensity when nobody is watching.
- Taste comes from doing the thing, not talking about the thing.
- The best projects usually start as private obsessions that become useful to other people.
