Happy to see Shopify is cracking down a little bit on copycats and reviews.
But what’s your moat? What makes your app special?

I'm pulling $80K/month using nothing but AI animated avatars reviewing products — dropping 100+ videos a day on autopilot.
No camera. No editing. No guesswork.
Now stack that with full animated ads — claymation, Pixar, anime, Wes Anderson, Lego, you name it — generated end-to-end for a fraction of a cent each.
I put together a complete guide with everything inside so you don't have to piece it together yourself.
Follow & comment "AFF" — I'll DM you the playbook.

v5.3 might be my favourite update yet.
The new animation module is quietly turning into people’s top spenders.
Not because the visuals are “better.”
Because they’re more watchable.
This ad worked because it made people laugh first. Humor drops defenses, earns attention, and buys you enough time to educate before you ever sell.
That’s retention.
That’s why these creatives keep scaling.
Comment “v5” and I’ll send you the framework link.

Je peux générer 100 créas vidéo en moins d'1h.
Avec Claude Code.
Sans CapCut.
Sans monter une seule vidéo à la main.
Il me sort directement les créas prêtes à tester.
Hooks.
Sous-titres.
Musiques.
Variantes.
Exports.
J'ai documenté tout mon workflow.
Commente "CLAUDE" je te l'envoie.
(oui la vidéo est en vitesse réelle)

Look at the difference the tool AND the prompt make.
Bad generator + lazy prompt: stiff movement, dead eyes, that obvious "AI look" everyone scrolls past.
Seedance + a detailed, structured prompt: natural movement, real lighting, real pacing — looks like it came off an actual production shoot.
Same product photo. Completely different result.
It's not one or the other. You need the right tool AND the right prompt to get agency-level output.

This video costs $0.4
not an actor. not a shoot. not even real people.
gpt 5.6 + seedance 2.0 rebuilt them from scratch and I genuinely cannot tell the difference anymore
most people are still paying $150/video for UGC creators while this system does it for pennies and scales infinitely
I put together the exact prompting system that makes this possible not just prompts, the actual method so you can build your own characters and never run out of content
comment "SEND" and I'll DM it to you IMMEDIATELY (most be following so I can DM)

Maxfusion AI MCP is insane and I am building so many useful skills and flows...
VOX explainers are just the start.

gpt 5.6 + seedance 2.0 is a f*cking cheat code
swapped fable out of my ugc system for it and the whole thing runs 10x cheaper and faster now
proof: one of these girls is a real creator. the other is the ai rebuild. same script, same visual hooks
you won't clock the fake
inside the system im running:
- the character ref prompts (named imperfections stack)
- the video prompts + the anti ai negatives
- the one line fix every gpt 5.6 script needs
- the full rebuild workflow
reply LEFT or RIGHT and i'll dm you the answer + the full prompting system (follow so i have dm access)

AI animations are BEST CONVERTING ads on meta right now
feels like everyone on X is talking about it, yet it's still somehow crushing in every single niche
most of our top spenders are animated videos made with AI in 15 minutes for $2.5
works insanely well on both paid & organic traffic
and now i'm sharing my FULL system with you..
here's what you're getting:
- my full pipeline for a finished animated short in under 30min
- prompts & tools that i use to create those
- method for turning any photo into a consistent animated character
- method for changing animation style in seconds without re-doing whole ad
- how i turn a product into an animated mascot in minutes
reply w/ "ANIMATION" and i'll send it so you can use it for your business (must follow so i can DM)

So I’m building Shopify stores that I’ll eventually hand off to clients. They’re currently dev stores.
As I was getting ready to transfer one, I noticed there was no “Transfer to client” option. I figured I had missed something, since I created it from the Client Stores section.
I reached out to support, and they told me it isn’t possible to transfer this store to a client at all.
No problem, I said. I’ll migrate everything to a new dev store instead. The only thing I want to keep is the original .myshopify.com URL because it matches the client’s brand.
Support said that’s impossible too, even after escalating it to a supervisor. Their suggestion was to create a new store with a “2” at the end of the URL. No thank you.
Are they right, @Shopify @liam_at_shopify @shopify @ShopifySupport Is there really no way to transfer this store or preserve the original .myshopify.com URL?
English
@oyega001 It wasn’t management. It was a customer service rep.
The client does not want to have “brand-2” at the end.
walmart-2.myshopify.com
apple-2.myshopify.com
It’s not really a good solution imo.
English
@itsjames You already heard the truth from the management, what else do want from anyone else again? The best you can do right now is to ask your client to create a Shopify account, give you access & you rebuild from scratch. If you are good with liquid, you can copy & paste the backenends

i should never be sharing this but f*ck it
Gemini Omni + GPT Images 2 + tiktok is THE best combo for AI videos
i cracked the formula for generating videos that look hyper realistic & make your audience feel like "holy shit this person gets me"
i'm finally sharing my FULL system with you..
here's what you're getting:
- my prompting method for realistic voices (works every time)
- my realistic human movements & breathing trick (this is key for realistic videos)
- my exact method on how to make infinite length videos that maintain consistency
- how to get AI tools for dirt cheap (90% off)
RT + reply 'OMNI' and i'll send you the step-by-step system (must be following so i can dm)

Alright, it’s official.
Just landed my first $4K website build. First real AI lead project for a client.
The crazy part? It was finished in 2 days.
AI did the design and most of the build. I still had to guide it, make changes, and refine everything, but what used to take 4 to 8 weeks with a designer and developer took just 48 hours.
The biggest difference? I’m no longer paying subcontractors, which completely changes the economics.

Make that 5. With a goal to submit all by this Friday.
What's my goal?
Either an income stream or sell for small exits to build capital.
Wish me luck.

I’ve built 4 Shopify apps in the last two weeks, and my goal is to submit all of them by next week. The funny part? I’m not a developer, and I’m a terrible designer. AI has filled in the gaps where I was weakest and made building software possible for someone like me, a generalist, a master of none. My advantage isn’t writing the best code or creating the best designs. It’s understanding what the market needs, building quickly, launching fast, and iterating based on real feedback. That’s also why I don’t think UI, features, or even functionality are the real moat anymore. They still matter, but they’re becoming easier than ever to replicate. The moat is shifting to relationships, distribution, and ecosystems. Will the biggest apps integrate with yours? Will they share data? Will merchants have a reason to choose your app over dozens of similar options? In a world where someone can recreate your app in a day with AI, the advantage belongs to businesses that build trust, partnerships, exclusive integrations, and products that work better together. Maybe that’s a suite of apps that seamlessly share data. Maybe it’s a network of strategic partners. Maybe it’s simply giving merchants a reason to stay in your ecosystem. Building software has never been easier. Building something that’s difficult to replace has never been more important.

Robinhood Card is a scam
3% cash back but even if you pay your entire balance 4 days before the due date they still charge full interest

I recently found out my hero biohacker was a vegan.
What a joke.
Ruined my 4th of July weekend.
