I'm a CTO-turned-solo-founder who got tired of seeing "vibe marketing" success stories (looking at you, Greg Isenberg) without the technical implementation details. So I spent 3 hours building and recording a complete marketing automation system.
*What it does:* - Claude AI analyzes your writing style and generates content - Runs through custom keyword optimization algo - Passes through humanizer algo for authentic voice - Node.js project pushes to Google Sheets for manual approval - Zapier picks up approved content → Buffer schedules it - One command: `npm run generate:weekly` → 2 daily X posts + 3 weekly long-form
*Tech stack:* - Anthropic Claude API for content generation - Custom Node.js algorithms for keyword optimization + humanization - Google Sheets as approval workflow - Zapier for automation workflows - Buffer API for scheduling - Cost: ~$0.15/week (just API calls)
*Architecture decisions:* The Google Sheets approval step was crucial. Pure automation felt too risky for brand voice. Now I can review/edit before publishing while keeping 90% of the workflow automated.
The humanizer algo was the trickiest part - had to fine-tune prompts to maintain my technical writing style while avoiding AI-generated "fluff."
*Why this approach:* Most marketing tools are either expensive ($100+/month) or completely generic. This learns YOUR voice but gives you control over what actually gets published.
*Current workflow:* 1. `npm run generate:weekly` 2. Review Google Sheet, flip approved posts to "confirmed" 3. Everything else happens automatically
*Demo:* I recorded the entire 3-hour build session here: https://x.com/GashiDite/status/1934686143196311841

We solve a critical problem: MVPs getting stuck in design hell while competitors launch.
Our platform combines 50+ years of professional design experience with multiple AI engines to generate complete branding packages tailored to your specific industry and audience.
The idea came after watching countless talented developers build amazing products that looked visually underwhelming. Most founders aren't designers, yet they spend weeks struggling with logos, colors, and typography instead of focusing on their core product.
BrandMyApp delivers: - Multiple professional logo options with variations for different contexts (dark mode, social media, favicon) - Color palettes based on industry-specific color psychology - Typography systems that match your brand voice - UI component previews so you see how everything looks in real interfaces - AI-ready prompts with branding included for tools like Cursor, v0, and Lovable
What makes us different is our focus on the complete branding experience. We don't just generate random logos - we show you how your brand will look across all touchpoints, from color psychology all the way to actual UI components like buttons and cards.
Our most popular feature is our AI-ready asset package. It contains JSON-formatted brand guidelines that plug directly into your development workflow, ensuring consistency across everything you build with AI tools.
We launched three weeks ago with a simple pricing model (one-time payments starting at $9.99) and already have hundreds of founders using the platform to launch their MVPs faster.

I'd love your feedback on what other design bottlenecks slow down your development process, and if you know any indie hackers or startup communities who might benefit from this tool.
