@SunnyxxSingh Kazakhstan 💅

@tsaltanatt Fair enough. Which country is that?

I have first sales!!!🥳🥳🥳 now Insight Engine has 216 visitors, 1,047 page views, 99 registered users, $32 revenue, $5 of that is mine😂 I also shipped a lot of feedback from real users. Added Russian language support, added linkidin post parsing and improved the writing and humanize style. lnkd.in/dtCs4nDP Can’t wait to see your feedback, posts, and creations made through my platform!!!🥹🥹🥹🥹

@SunnyxxSingh I’m part of a startup incubator that’s similar to Y Combinator, but based in my country :)

@tsaltanatt Damn, that's scary. Why in five weeks?

@SunnyxxSingh Actually I need to get $1000 mrr within 5 weeks :) i don't have 10 month😂😭

@tsaltanatt Let's go! $32! Wow that's so sick! You know what, getting your first dollar is the hard one so I'm excited for what you're going to have in ten weeks, in ten months.

@isacpetruu The issue is not that people use ai to write. It’s that they skip the thinking part and ask ai to sound human after giving it almost no real context. The best outputs still come from specific inputs: what happened, what you learned, what you actually think

The agency owners space has 2 big problems: 1/ AI slop is EVERYWHERE You can clock it in 3 seconds because your brain has been trained on hundreds of posts that came out of the same machine 2/ People with REAL expertise sitting on months of content they'll never write. They know their stuff But they can't translate any of it into posts that make strangers wanna pull out their credit card. Both problems have the same fix. It's knowing how to combine AI with a skilled operator so the output sounds like a person with real experience wrote it. Because a person with real experience DID write it. The AI just did the heavy lifting first. Broke down the entire process in this article. • How the briefing works • What the editing pass looks like • Why most people's AI content falls flat • Why doing this well is an actual operation not a prompt. Read it here:

@LoganTGott This is so true. For founders, LinkedIn isn’t just a profile anymore. It’s basically a landing page people visit after your posts. If it doesn’t explain what you do and why it matters fast, you lose warm traffic

I pulled up every SaaS / AI LinkedIn profile we set-up this year. Every single one had the same problem before we wrote a word of content. The profile itself was leaking leads. Bio, banner, the link CTA, featured section, skills, about, etc. We send 100,000s of people to these profiles every month, and the gaps were costing booked calls. So I built a Claude prompt for every section. Answer a few questions, get copy-paste-ready output that’s trained on the top SaaS and AI LinkedIn accounts. I packaged the whole thing for you into the Claude + LinkedIn Profile Prompts Vault: Here's what's inside: → The Bio Generator an outcome-first headline that sells the result, not your job title → The Banner Generator the exact headline, proof, and layout you hand straight to a designer → The Link & CTA Generator turns "book a call" into a CTA people actually click → The Featured Section Builder the 3-slot funnel that converts the ready, the almost-ready, and the just-browsing → The Skills Audit what to cut, what to add, and what to get endorsed for so you read as credible → The About Section Writer a problem-first story that makes the right founder feel seen and reach out Want access to it? Like + comment "PROFILE" and I'll DM it. (Must be following so I can DM you)

@degensing Exactly. Clean writing is becoming cheap. A recognizable voice is becoming the moat. The hard part is not generating more posts, it’s keeping the specific details that prove a real person wrote them

In 2026, the rarest thing on X isn't a good idea. It's a post that actually sounds like a human wrote it. The numbers are wild. Around 71% of images on social media are already AI-generated, heading toward 90% this year. More than half of long-form LinkedIn posts are likely written by AI. X is moving the same direction, fast. We started calling it "AI slop" for a reason. And people are done with it. Enthusiasm for AI-made creator content has collapsed: only 26% of people prefer it now, down from 60% in 2023. Just 41% still trust that what they read online is human and accurate. So here's the shift almost nobody is pricing in: When everyone has the same models, "post more" stops being an edge. Sounding like yourself becomes the edge. The feed is drowning in the same polished, voiceless paragraphs. The accounts that still sound like a specific person, their own takes, rhythm, even their weird phrasing, are the ones people actually stop for. That's the whole bet behind VoiceMoat. Most AI writes the same way for everyone, so it adds to the slop. VoiceMoat trains a writing partner, Auden, on your full profile, your hooks, your rhythm, your takes, so you can move fast and still sound unmistakably like you. You don't win the next era of X by posting more AI. You win it by being one of the few accounts that still sounds human. Your voice is your moat. literally, now.

@zeeshanrasool_ This is the kind of feedback that hurts but saves you months. People may say the idea is interesting, but their behavior shows what they actually need. The feature they keep using wrong might be the real product.

A year ago I almost built the wrong product. I was building a website builder for busy professionals. But something unexpected kept happening. Instead of using the features I built, users would scroll straight to the blog. The AI-written post we'd generated from their LinkedIn profile. The feedback came in fast. "This doesn't quite sound like me." "The idea is there but the thinking feels shallow." The problem was never the website. It was the voice behind it. These people could walk into any room and own it. Brilliant in conversation. But put a blank page in front of them and they'd freeze. So we stopped asking people to write. We just talk to them instead. 10 minutes. Your ideas. Published everywhere. heybono.ai

@SahilPanhotra This is so wholesome. At first building in public feels like nobody is watching, but consistency has a weird way of making people quietly root for you.

1,700 followers 🥂 Proof that consistently yapping about tech, AI, and random builder thoughts actually works Thank you to everyone who’s been here for the ride 🫶 If you’re building in public too say hi 👋

@daicandev Congrats!! First sale makes everything feel more real. Even if the number is small, the signal is huge, someone cared enough to pay

Day 4 building in public: My first sale, I'm so happy I'm closer to 1 million... I'm just $999,984 away🥲 x.com/bitcoinpendium…

@heykumaonx @ElitzaVasileva Needed this. I’m preparing for my first Product Hunt launch now, and the biggest lesson so far is that PH doesn’t create momentum from zero. It only amplifies the trust you built before launch day

This genuinely made me emotional🫡 Every founder planning a Product Hunt launch should read @ElitzaVasileva 's post. The result is impressive, but the real lesson is the 8 months behind it: the uncertainty, the community building, the painful parts, and the consistency nobody sees.

@theslowtell Exactly. AI often fixes the sentence but removes the evidence that a real person was behind it. The hesitation, weird detail, rough opinion, specific context and that’s usually the part people actually trust

AI did not make founder writing smarter. It made fake depth cheaper. Now everyone has cleaner sentences, better structure, and the same dead voice. That’s why so much founder content feels weird now. It’s not bad. It’s bloodless. The writing improved. The person disappeared.

@weesiang_lim @Psycho_Growth 100%. The problem with ai content isn’t the writing quality. It’s that it removes the specific lived context that made the post worth reading

@Psycho_Growth LinkedIn right now is drowning in AI-generated content that all reads the same. My only edge has been writing about specific moments nobody else lived through, not ChatGPT frameworks. Authenticity is not a nice-to-have here. It is the one thing the average cannot copy.

A peaceful life begins when your authenticity becomes more important than your popularity.

@sivalabs @vlad_mihalcea This is exactly the gap. AI shouldn’t make everyone sound more polished. It should help people express what they actually think, with their own context and weird specific details still intact. Most tools optimize for clean But clean is not the same as human.

@vlad_mihalcea Exact same feeling. At least on Twitter 30% content is something people want to express, but on LinkedIn 98% is AI generated garbage. So, I kind of gave up on LinkedIn and only checking Twitter occasionally.

When I go on social media, I want to read authentic messages, but AI has ruined this experience for me. If I see a post that smells AI-generated, I just move on. It's the same as it was with website ads. Whenever reading a page, my brain was filtering out the ads, so I could not tell what they were all about. Is it just me, or have you also developed a sort of fatigue for AI-generated content?

@paolo_scales This is so true. A lot of ai written posts optimize only for the first click, not for the next sentence. The hook gets attention, but if the body doesn’t actually deliver, it trains people to ignore you next time

almost every founder is losing 50-80% of their LinkedIn reach before anyone even reads their post their hook never earns the "see more" click and if nobody clicks "see more" nothing else matters after analyzing hundreds of founder posts, I've noticed 2 hook styles consistently outperform everything else: 1. negative Hooks call out a mistake, problem or frustration your audience is actively experiencing example: “too many founders spend months creating content before fixing their positioning” the real reason most LinkedIn content fails is... the reader immediately wants to know if they're making the mistake 2. authority Hooks lead with a specific experience, result or data point. not: "I've been doing LinkedIn for years" but: "After reviewing 500+ founder LinkedIn profiles..." or "I’ve generated 10M+ LinkedIn impressions in the last year." specificity creates credibility (which is what’s going to make people buy from you) now the biggest mistake I see with good hooks is that it creates the curiousity, but then people need to scroll 15 lines for the answer if your hook promises one thing, resolve it IMMEDIATELY after the click (remember to not only create curiousity, but also reward it)

@pgbpgbpgbpgbpgb This hit hard. I used to think Product Hunt was where discovery starts. Now I’m realizing it only amplifies what you already built before launch day

Most founders treat Product Hunt like a lottery ticket. They build in silence, click launch, and wonder why nobody upvotes. Product Hunt doesn't discover you. It amplifies you. The math is simple: PH's algorithm rewards early momentum. That momentum has to come from somewhere - and that somewhere is the audience you built before the countdown timer started. Here's how to build it: - Start posting about the problem you're solving 6-8 weeks before launch. Not your product - the pain. - DM 10 people a day who fit your target user. Not to sell. To learn. They'll remember you. - Drop your upcoming launch in communities where your users hang out. Ask for feedback, not upvotes. - Build a waitlist and email every single person the morning you launch. - Get 5 real users to commit to commenting on launch day - not just upvoting. Comments signal credibility. A warm audience of 200 engaged people beats a cold audience of 2,000 followers every time. Launch day is just the harvest. The farming starts now.

@KevinMacCauley So true. I had this with onboarding this week. I kept wanting to fix more UI, but the actual answer came from slowing down and watching where users got stuck

The founder skill nobody lists on a job post: sitting with a hard problem for an hour without reaching for your phone. Most answers are on the other side of boredom. We've gotten very good at avoiding it.

I’ve noticed this too while building for founders. The posts people respond to usually aren’t the neat framework posts. They’re the ones where something specific happened: a user got stuck, a feature landed badly, or the founder admits they don’t really know what to do next. That kind of detail is harder to fake, which is probably why it works

Builders who grow fastest admit what they don't know. I posted about having zero tests across 4 SaaS. Got more replies than any "here's how I did it" post. People connect with the mess, not the method. Where do you struggle the most ?

just shipped: Insight Engine now pulls your posts from both X and LinkedIn 🎉🎉🎉 slect what you want analyzed, drop the ones that don't fit your voice, and we build your style card from real writing. then every post you generate (X or LinkedIn) sounds authentically you, not generic AI slop. it's like a ghostwriter that actually studied how you think.

@TTrimoreau Actual ghostwriting

Founders, sell me your startup in two words
