Beast Mode is the official audiobook version of Starting A Startup — the brutally tactical founder playbook by startup coach James Sinclair — now built for your vehicle’s Android Automotive system.

No phone. No login. No distractions.

Just startup clarity, segmented into focused, drive-time chapters. This isn’t a podcast. This isn’t fluff. This is the execution manual founders didn’t know they needed — now native to your GM dashboard.

What Is Beast Mode?
Beast Mode is a native Android Automotive audiobook experience — designed to play directly from the dashboard of supported GM vehicles. Built using the GM Developer Ecosystem tools, this app delivers real startup frameworks, not motivational filler.

If you’ve ever tried to build a product from scratch, get traction, raise capital, or go from “idea” to “actual company” — this audiobook is built for you.
Every chapter is optimized for short drives, solo commutes, or long hauls — with each section delivering one meaningful unlock across:

Idea validation
MVP design
Behavioral market risk
Sales & early traction
Fundraising & investor framing
Mental clarity & founder resilience

Based on the Book Read by 140,000+ Founders

Starting A Startup is used by first-time and repeat founders across accelerators, VC portfolios, and bootstrapped teams worldwide. It’s not theory. It’s frameworks. Taught in direct, no-fluff language by someone who has built and exited real startups — and coached hundreds more.

Readers describe it as “emotionally intelligent,” “in the trenches,” and “the only book that told me what actually matters.”

Now it rides shotgun.
