Meet the Residents #5: Luca Restagno 🇮🇹
Meet Luca, engineering manager by day, indie maker by night. 8 products in 3 years — only the last one stuck. Now building BlackTwist, a social media toolkit for Threads.
We're introducing each of the residents joining the Uneed Residency in Nantes, France, from May 26 to June 2.
8 products in 3 years.
The first 7? Flopped, sold off, or killed by API pricing changes. The 8th is the one 😏.
Luca is an engineering manager by day, indie maker by night. The classic 9-to-5 / 5-to-9 lifestyle. And let's just say he doesn't take it easy on the second shift.
His current project
BlackTwist, a social media toolkit for Threads. Yes, Threads. After spending 3 years building his audience on X/Twitter, he decided to go all-in on a different platform. He admits it himself — it's a bit crazy 😅.
But it's working: recently, a single viral post on Threads brought them 120 signups in one go. The kind of signal that confirms there's a real market here.
The challenge, like many here? Marketing. The product is solid — now it needs more eyes on it.
Why he's joining the residency
What he's coming for: meet passionate people, exchange unfiltered experiences, and leave with more energy than ever.
Fun fact: Luca picked up snowboarding at 40. According to him, it was still less risky than launching a new SaaS 😂.
More residents coming soon
We'll introduce all of them before the residency kicks off 😊.
Best,
Thomas from Uneed
