Good idea, @screenfluent. Also a quick question, I wanted to move build-in-public from Twitter to WIP, as I think it would be more valuable to other builders than the general audience on Twitter.
Which type of content should I post? (I need it kinda longer form, doesn't seem to be a good fit for Todo/Question/Roast/Milestone/Intro 😅)
Tagging @marc as it's intended for Marc :D
Thanks, Daniel! I can't wait to read your posts here, free from the worry that Twitter crowds might make you second-guess sharing your experiences with the world.
I think cloning Milestones to Posts could be the best approach. The longer I think about it, the more I like the idea that WIP is a kind of micro (or not) blogging platform centered around our projects.
@daniel_nguyenx I had a similar question because I wanted to share long-form content here, and then I found @jasonleow's LifeLog. Many of us use this space to share long-form content about what we're building, how life is going, and our thoughts about the process.
Great feedback, thank you. Yeah, I'm going to write that comparison page.
Thanks Swizec. I actually have a same idea, but not sure if I could make it better than Github copilot haha.
As of security/privacy, I think a paid opensource could work. WDYT? :D
Thanks a lot for your reply, @marc. And I agree with everything you said.
I gave myself 1 week to ship this product and would then collect feedback from my early customers. Hopefully I could find some niche use case that make this really useful.
Otherwise, yeah, it's quite hard to build a competitive business with the current feature.
I use ChatGPT and it's pretty good. I can even ask to change certain clauses. Obviously still need to double check the result though.
Thanks for the advice Ben. I was thinking of targeting small businesses, not enterprises. Hopefully that would minimize red tape and with shorter sales cycle :D
One direction I think could work is to keep BoltAI as a standalone app like it is now, then I started building more integrations. Though this seems to take a lot more dev efforts 🤔
Yep, selling to smaller startups definitely helps - I would still expect some of those issues, just to a lesser extent. Your pricing may also have to be lower since their budgets will be lower relative to a big company.
