One hour one startup is ready use AI – Here's My Weekend Hack to Find a Good One
Every hour with AI, I’ve got a new startup ready to roll. For real. But half the time, I hate it when it’s done, and nobody’s gonna use it.
So here’s my thread-style plan to sort it out this weekend:
- *Let’s Find Good Ideas*
- Ask Grok: “Give me 3 startup ideas some indie hacker like Marc Lou would build.”
- Takes a sec, pick the one you vibe with.
- *Don’t Build It Yet!*
- Throw up a waitlist instead—I use http://waitfast.netlify.app to whip one up fast.
- Customize it—logo, branding, whatever. [(Hit my X thread below if you wanna see how I do it in seconds.)](https://x.com/Sayyidalijufri/status/1901199779813818534)
- *Time for X*
- Post the waitlist link on X.
- Check feedback, see who signs up.
- If tons of people jump in, build it with AI. If not, move on.
That’s it. Quick, dirty, and you’re not stuck coding a dud. Last time, one got mad signups, another flopped—guess which I’m keeping?
