Built an AI tool that turns long videos into viral clips automatically. Upload Video - AI finds the best moments - cuts them and then optimizes for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram, X and LinkedIn Free during beta, no credit card required clipza-production.up.railway.app Would love feedback!

Day 9 of journalling (quick lil retitle) my entrepreneurial journey: Only been in the digital product game for about a month now, prior to this I was making fortnite montages on yt, flipping thousands worth of sneakers on marketplace, trading too many memecoins, and tinkering with e-commerce. Now I am at a point of pivot, my idea Clipza, was just too broad, too general, and lacked substance. Sure it worked and provided value, but compared to competitors whether that be my ability to distribute or my actual features, there wasn't much chance. It was not a failure though, I learnt a TON, immersed myself deeper into the market and realized that the product itself didn't even allign with me. I want to build something I would use myself whilst also having the capability to be viral online, that's my next product in mind, starting my build tomorrow.

Day 8 of journaling my build on Clipza/Entrepreneurship Built a dashboard where you can access all your previously made clips. Hit the gym + studied a lil (uni gotta go bruh) Insane friction from actually finding people to cold outreach, I am going to try and automate it

Day 7 on journaling my build on Clipza/Entrepreneurship No actual building or feedback attempts done today, several interruptions during the day prevented me from doing so. But I developed a structured daily workflow and also some basic features that I am missing on my product before I actually start pushing it online via other social channels. Time to take this product from just a learning experience to an actually market test, a pivot will be determined soon.

Day 6 of journaling my build on ClipZa/ Entrepreneurship Finally Got some feedback through reddit - not from customers but fellow builders. Mainly gained insight on distribution (find communities in your niche to share so you can get closer to your market) And also insight on product feautures, captions are a must add. I also improved how clips are selected so I can get even stronger moments through the tool.

Day 5 of journalling my build on ClipZa/Entrepreneurship Where the fuck did all the time go today. I hit gym, all I did was 10+ marketplace listings, a marketplace meetup of trading cards which I immidiately sorted through and listed tonight. Literally did nothing to grow my product at all, dopamine mad fried, I'm just straight up cooked bruh. These past couple of days have been filled with procastination, brain fog, and avoidance. Genuine best takeaway is that I need to start taking more action, I have so much time everyday yet I let it slip away, I could be making content, reaching out to people, networking online, etc. But instead I choose to do the most random shit everyday. #chud

Is it worth setting up an ai agent to automate a part of your feedback loop such as finding leads in your market to cold outreach? Never used one before, do they even live up to the hype?

Day 4 of journalling my build on clipza/entreprenuership Procastinated too much, really didn't do much today except making a producthunt account,thinking about my business, and going to the gym. Seems that distribution is the bottleneck for everyone here, not just for feedback but also for genuine revenue, I think I can gain my edge here 100% - especially cuz I can't code for shit, but SAAS is a great way to provide value to others with AI Also cleaned my pc today for the first time in 6-7 years, shit was nasty I just need to build a daily system with non-negotiables revolving around my business (have the health aspect dialed already), If I can enter a position to get 1% better everyday consistently then I can't fail.

As an 18 yr old trying to become a succesful entrepreneur What skill should I be putting most of my time to? What should I avoid?

@DomenicIandolo Taking a YT podcast to $7500/m is a great case study - very interesting video I ran your video through my clipping tool and got some ready to post moments - just looking for feedback, interested in seeing what it came up with? Completely free, just want thoughts on the result

Walked through how we took this podcast YouTube channel to $7500/m on Skool. Brand new community, with a unique audience. Worth a watch if you’re trying to start a Skool community or have a unique audience. youtu.be/T8TrCvAk8LY?si…

@zuess05 And im dogshit at that 🤣

@NicoRobson_ Yeah 100% Building is actually solved Only thing that remains is distribution

"Vibe coding" is clearly the current meta. But since AI can now build an entire app in a few hours, the barrier to entry is officially zero. What is the actual meta going to be 6 months from now when there are 10 million identical SaaS apps?

Day 3 on journalling my build on Clipza Cold outreach - that's it, really just looking for any sort of feedback from anyone at this point. Constantly battling the thought of trying to build a new product becuase this one "doesn't work" but I haven't validated that yet, so I just have to push through. Even the business model as a whole, SaaS has amazing upsides but also harsh downsides, but that's goes with everything. Just need to learn and figure out what works + doesn't and gather skills.

Day 2 on journalling my build on Clipza Didn't really do much today, kinda feel ashamed for making myself even post this. Procastinating too much, sure I did some petite ui changes based on my first source of feedback from reddit + gained some deeper insight on how I should position. But I am not putting in nearly as much volume as I should, cold outreach is probably the highest roi thing I can do right now but I have been struggling to find people to DM. I don't have any excuses, it's all on me, need more discipline for sure.

@engagekit_io Seems to be the best way to go at it, struggling to find those who fit my criteria and have my dms reach them. Ig I need to dramatically increase my sample size + reps.

@NicoRobson_ cold dm works

Feeling super stuck right now, what were the best sources for feedback for y'all? Before I put anytime into upgrading/changing the front or backend, I'm forcing myself to hear from more people but its a struggle. Idk why I feel stressed about this at 18, I should probably detach myself from all outcomes and only care about inputs.

@AndrewTradesNQ Real, nice vid

@henkjan Yea, often I feel that my work for the day - even after hours, feels very ineffective. I need to ensure that I am efficient.

@NicoRobson_ Efficiency is the best form of progress.

Day 1 (More like night) of journalling my build on Clipza - Was able to dramatically increase clip generation speed by removing a dumb bottleneck - set up an abort controller so backing out doesn't burn API credits Apart from these changes though I am still slacking heavily on distribution. I think I need to really focus on my positioning - the name and design still seems generic. I want to target those who make long form content which is purely talking such as interviews, podcasts, raw talk, teachings, motivation, and philosophy. clipza-production.up.railway.app/dashboard Would love feedback - its free to use right now!

@vitaevisualpro For sure, being able to get my product to people and get feedback is necessary now

@NicoRobson_ Building is step one, distribution is the multiplier.
