About MarginWorks

Built by a business owner, for business owners.

The short version

MarginWorks is the AI launch pad from Wilk Industries, a New York-based company building 25 businesses. We're not a venture-backed accelerator selling theory. We're operators who use AI every single day to launch real businesses — and we help new business owners do the same.

The difference: we actually use this stuff. AI runs our operations, our content, our monitoring, our customer workflows. When we recommend a tool or a launch strategy, it's because we've already tested it on ourselves.

Who's behind it

Joanna Kurylo is a New York-based operator, builder, and business owner. Queens-born, Brooklyn-based. She runs Wilk Industries and is building 25 businesses in public — documenting the wins, the losses, and the lessons along the way.

She started MarginWorks because she saw two things happening simultaneously:

1. People who wanted to start their first business were overwhelmed by options, tools, and "guru" advice that made everything sound complicated.

2. The AI tools existed to make launching a business dramatically easier — but nobody was teaching new business owners how to actually use them.

So she built the launch pad she wished existed: practical, beginner-friendly, free to join, and built around actually launching something — not just learning about it.

Operating principles

🚀
Launch over plan
Stop planning. Start building. Every recommendation is evaluated against one question: does this get you closer to launching?
🤝
Beginner-friendly, not dumbed down
We explain things in plain English. No jargon. No assumptions. If you don't understand something, that's our fault, not yours.
