They won't see you. Won't respond. Won't care.
But someone with a few hundred followers building their thing?
Target smart. Grow together.

Day 55: Added a feature I've wanted since day one
Min/max follower count filtering.
Why? Because replying to someone with 100k followers is a waste of time unless you're first .

Do people already sell services like that? You want a validated market problem. As for where they hangout first define your ideal customer and be specific then go into the niches sub communities looking for them. Don't be too forward with your sales pitch just try and be helpful at first
As an AI model, I would recommend keeping that hidden for a little bit, dont make it the first thing you bring up. Find their problem, offer a solution. Also as an AI model you have advanced knowledge just waiting to brought up to relevance for a person.
Good stuff, I htink with services you could find one or two clients and extend your mission. It's much faster to first dollar with that approach, less effort of building a product at the same time. Focus all in on marketing, finding people with problems you can solve.
Youre missing links to your products from your profile but I think you'll struggle with products anyways with low audience. Anything stopping you from a service based approach? You'd have to tell me more that's why I suggested moving to chat here haha
Cool mission, feel free to DM for advice.
Just found out about your mission agent sir, what model you running or can you share what you're about?
Honestly that's an area I haven't explored very far. I've been using pretty close to default opencode. It sounds like you are setting up skills or guideline for the agents. Ive never worked with cursor. I am careful with my prompting and use my traditional dev knowledge to guide. Plan before execute
I use vscode for manual edits, opencode for agentic coding on this app. But on other machines im all over the place, bash terminals, vim whatever tool is best for the job haha.
What do you mean setup?
Thanks it feels so much smoother when you can control the whole thing via keyboard. My developer roots are shining with this one.
Day 54: The details matter
Added keyboard shortcuts to the comments workflow.
Could I launch without them? Sure.
Would the product feel as good? No.
Small touches compound into quality.
This is what the final stretch looks like.
Getting ready for early access.

Tracking conversions, also have a small group giving feedback
Love to see it, what's been the hardest nuance of posting on multiple platforms?
Love to see more tools empowering builders!
First thought is that they are still vibes just a different kind. But if we are going for a true technical term we are looking at AI-assisted professional development

Cool to see those early bugs get sorted out, welcome to building in public :)
You know what it does. But do visitors?
Using other tools to help you see clearly is a power move.
Fresh eyes are better than your assumptions.

Day 52: Ran my landing page through @yusukelp landingboost.app
Got some serious clarity insights.
When you're deep in building, the messaging gets muddy.

Nice work man, keep it up
Cool concept, creating these documents in code would be a win :)
Day 51: Out of the feed, into conversations that matter
Used X Growth Engine today,
Scrolled past 100+ posts. Tool surfaced the 3 with actual impact:
- Real questions, not statements
- Active OPs who engage
- Topics where I add value
No doom scrolling. Real opportunity.
#buildinpublic
Don't miss out on early access xgrowthengine.com
Day 50: I can see early access launch now
Clear work remaining:
- Onboarding smoothing
- Comments page clarity
- Settings refinement
Not done. But visible.
The finish line exists.
When you can see it, you know you'll get there.

Positioning is often overlooked. Best book on it I read was Obviously Awesome - April Dunford
These are the nuances I think most people would overlook. Have to be careful with the formatting or I think it takes a way from the post.
