I hate marketing so I made this tool...

I always delegate or automate the things I hate to do. One of them is "marketing."

After I posted a couple of posts on Reddit, I closed 2 clients to build MVPs. Then I realized, how can I do this on auto-pilot?

So I decided to build a tool using AI to help me find where people need my services/product and trying to "sell" to them without sounding like a robot.

That's how https://replyqai.com was made! (previously: https://tryreplyq.com)

I am using Ruby on Rails and Next.js for back-end and front-end + TailwindCSS which helps a lot with building fast & reusable components.

I spent many sleepless nights figuring out how to do it without spamming and actually "helping people" to train the model in a way that if there's not enough context, do not join the chat or reply carelessly / in a sales-like manner.

I spent 2-3 hours and I did SEO with Next.js on https://replyqai.com/blog which helped me to quickly get indexed and rank on Google. It's not much but it's a start.

Basically, I did the following:

I wrote a script to use Google autosuggest API & AI to get high-volume, low competition keywords and find some articles to match them on my websites. It's an ongoing task that I need to do every week (SEO is slow but powerful if you get it right).

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the landing page and the idea, and also if it has a unique value proposition.

    Nice one!
    But how did you overcome the limitations of using Twitter and LinkedIn's API's to get the information? Hundreds of bots?
    Correct me if im wrong, but you scrape data to look for right words, no?

      thanks!

      that's the secret sauce that no chef shares but yes there are ways to bypass that
