6 months ago I launched my AI customer support widget on Product Hunt and other directories. Got some traction but ended up with 5 free users and 0 paying customers.

I'm a software engineer with 10+ years of experience, building on the side after my 9-5 in Romania. I could ship a full product in a weekend with Claude Code. But I had zero idea how to get it in front of people who'd pay for it.

I didn't even know what an ICP was at the time. Didn't know if SEO was worth doing or how it worked. I was too scared to do cold outreach and send DMs to strangers. I literally spent months figuring everything out the hard way.

I turned what I learned into a structured framework that runs inside Claude Code. You clone a git repo and get two things:

1. It tells you what to do next

There's a growth playbook with a specific order: cold outreach first to validate that people actually want your product (month 1-3), SEO once you have messaging that works (month 3-6), paid ads last (month 9+). Each step has a strategy doc that explains the thinking behind it, not just "do this." There's a fundamentals guide that covers funnels, ICP scoring, the Mom Test, churn math. I wrote it for the version of me that knew how to write code but had never sent a cold DM.

Progress tracking files show where you are: leads contacted, reply rates, what's converting. The system reads that context and tells you what makes sense next. If you've sent 20 messages and nobody replied, it'll tell you to fix your messaging before sending more. If your reply rate is good but nobody's booking calls, it'll point you at the demo strategy doc.

2. It does the boring research

Since it runs in Claude Code, it can read your actual codebase and product files. Say "set up my product" and it looks at your code, researches competitors, scores potential customer segments using a weighted framework (pain, fit, budget, market size), and writes everything to markdown files you can review. When you need outreach copy, it writes messages based on your product and the specific person you're reaching out to.

The whole thing is markdown files in a git repo. No app, no dashboard. Strategies are docs, progress is tables, and Claude Code ties it together through good instructions in CLAUDE.md. It's structured knowledge plus product context plus AI execution, not magic.

I built it to solve my own problem and I've been using it to distribute itself, which is a little weird but it works. Got my first sale ever last week. $39 lifetime.

Happy to answer questions about the approach or the Claude Code setup. Also curious if anyone else has tried using AI for distribution, not just for writing code.

Most automation tools either require coding, a complicated UI, or a monthly subscription.

I built Automate AI to make automation dead simple: You type what you want in plain English, and it generates a working automation script you can review and run on your own computer.

- No cloud.

- No account.

- No subscription.

Runs entirely on your PC (Windows & Mac).

Examples:

- “Organize my Downloads folder by file type”

- “Delete duplicate files”

- “Rename photos by date taken”

- “Remove background from images”

It uses a local LLM, so your data never leaves your machine. If you don’t want to install a model, you can use built-in templates instead.

It’s completely free.

Would love feedback!

Hello all,

As an AI skeptic - ok not really - but as a tentative AI adopter I've slowly made my way through the tools to try to understand their value starting with RAG and other forms, all the way through to agents. And all the while I couldn't really figure out how to make it work for my framework Go Micro. A library that's been around since 2015, rode the wave of containers, kubernetes, grpc, etc and now looking at how to be relevant in a new world. I think somewhere I always knew MCP integration would make sense. and also that services are the basis for all skills or tools agents have when you go up a higher level. Essentially they need to connect to APIs. Most people are probably running some sort of thing like this internally. So I thought I'd just ask Claude Code to write a small gateway package to integrate that, where it turns anything in the service registry into a tool automatically. And then I told it to blog about it. It's a new world.

I'd be interested to hear how people are integrating MCP/Agents with their existing services, grpc services, apis, etc.
