@THArrowOfApollo CODE

We were Clay's largest user at one point in time, hitting their platform 17.3 million times per week. Last month we replaced them entirely with a $200/mo Claude Code subscription. I can't write code. Neither can James, my VP of Growth who built the replacement. Here's the full story. Clay is a GREAT product and I TRULY think most people should use it. But we hit their ceiling. 50,000 row limit per table. 12.5 million row cap per workspace. Tables that take days to actually delete. Clicking "run all" thousands of times and waiting days for things to clear out. So When you're processing millions of leads, all the above become the bottleneck of your entire business. James had never touched Claude Code before. Three weeks after learning it, he built our entire core system. With Clay, processing 1 million leads took 27 hours. And it would error out often enough that we would always have to plan on hitting the “run all rows” button again on 20+ clay tables. IYKYK but Our new system waterfall enriches 1 million leads in 5 seconds. 272,000 leads PER SECOND. AND On top of the core engine, we vibe coded a Google Maps scraper that pulls leads zip code by zip code across all 32,000 US zip codes. AND An AI lead finder that hits 95% contact match rates where Apollo gives you about 30%. AND Ad library scrapers for Google and LinkedIn. AND An AI campaign analysis system. AND An auto-refill system so clients never run out of leads mid-campaign. One we started building with Claude, we just couldn’t stop Now we have the data ready for clients sending 5 million emails a month within 1 week of signing the contract. I put together the full system blueprint -- every tool, the tech stack, a Clay vs custom comparison, and a 6-step playbook for building your own. Plus a video walkthrough where I show you the live system and how each tool actually works. Retweet or Reply CODE below and I'll DM it to you.

Anything going on with @Azure ?

@davidfowl @stevensanderson Agreed!

When @stevensanderson gives a talk, I watch. AI-Powered App Development youtu.be/L1w6wBxhpgE Now you watch.

Anyone got a cheap/free address postcode lookup service they can recommend?

The number one madness at the moment is people letting multiple agents work unsupervised, that are junior level at best, and expecting quality software. This from @claudeai after spending an hour (and tokens) trying to write a couple of unit tests....It's absolutely mind-blowing

@trq212 It's painfully slow

Claude Code Desktop is easily the best way to do any frontend work right now. With Preview it can spin up your app, take screenshots and iterate until it's right.

Work on pause - snowboard cross time! @Olympics

@bcherny Any chance you can concentrate on the core functionality of Claude? It's going backwards at a rate.

This turned out really nice. Excited to hear what you think! Install the Claude Code Slack app here: code.claude.com/docs/en/slack

@mikefutia Meta

I just vibe coded a Meta Ads creative analytics tool in Claude Code 🤯 It syncs your ad accounts, AI-analyzes every creative, and tells you exactly what's working, what's not, and WHY. Built 100% in Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who are tired of staring at Meta Ads Manager trying to figure out WHY an ad is working or not. Here's the problem: Meta gives you the data. Spend, ROAS, CTR, hook rate. But it never tells you WHY an ad is performing or what to do about it. You're left manually watching videos, guessing at angles, and making gut-call decisions on what to iterate. This tool solves it: → Connect your Meta ad accounts → AI watches every video and analyzes every static → Auto-labels each ad by asset type, messaging angle, hook tactic, and funnel stage → Win rate analysis broken down by every category → Kill/scale recommendations segmented by TOF, MOF, and BOF → AI-generated iteration recommendations for every underperforming ad No manual video watching. No guessing at what's working. No spreadsheets to track creative performance. What you get: - Full creative analytics dashboard - AI classification on every ad - Iteration priorities for ads with real spend behind them - Weekly reports with top/bottom performers and AI insights I recorded a full walkthrough showing exactly how this works and what every feature does, including ALL the prompts I used so you can build it yourself. Want access to all the prompts for free? > Like this post > Comment "META" And I'll send it over (must be following so I can DM)

Seriously what is happening to @claudeai - compacts every couple of minutes, hopeless answers and taking forever...

@SawyerMerritt @Starlink The very opposite.

I think a lot of people underestimate how many people will switch airlines for great internet (@Starlink). Airlines that don't have great internet will lose customers to airlines that do have great internet.

@bcherny @bobsheth We sent you this idea a week ago!

@bobsheth Cool idea!

I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. I wanted to quickly share a few tips for using Claude Code, sourced directly from the Claude Code team. The way the team uses Claude is different than how I use it. Remember: there is no one right way to use Claude Code -- everyones' setup is different. You should experiment to see what works for you!

@DeltaNewtral @claudeai Much better today

@Red_Owl_IT_Devs @claudeai Mine is extremely slow to the point its unusable... I have not experienced this ever before... Any changes on your end?

Is @claudeai working? So slow to do anything today.

@Shpigford Setup project in github, use claude.ai/code select repo and away you go.

what’s the go to setup for using claude code on mobile? realistically would want it to either have github access and/or remote file access to my machine.

We've been thinking this for a while but not all Claude agents are equal! Some sessions are great, get the context and provide accurate answers some not so much @bcherny let us mark the agent/session out of 10.

Has anyone ever worked out @GoCardless developer documentation?!

@pierceboggan @RemcoAI Terrible for us also, the basics don't work - applying changes is a mess, stops halfway through overwrites the wrong stuff and spends time (and assume tokens) rewriting the whole section rather than just making the updates. Compared to Claude Code in VSCode it is way behind.

@RemcoAI what is missing for you? we have local/background/cloud agents (and you can use your Copilot sub with Codex and soon other coding agents), tons of customization features like instructions/skills/custom agents, next edit suggestions, bring your own key, etc.

How is it possible that Github Copilot is such a joke. It bassically started off with the largest user base which it could utilize to outplay any other coding tool, like Cursor. But they didnt

@vyrotek We've used it for over 30 projects in the last couple of years, absolutely brilliant. And haven't found any js interop gotchas or any issues with scaling (although we don't typically have high numbers of concurrent users). Even better now with Aspire.

Have you used Blazor Server in production? I haven't found the right opportunity yet. It's friggin magic and very productive for the right problem. But I also get nervous because it's magic and worry about js interop gotchas later.
