This is a repost of an email originally for TAIL (Tiny AI Lab) members only, but today is my BIRTHDAY! I decided to share it with everyone on my list as a little gift. Enjoy!
If you haven’t been getting my TAIL newsletter, you can join here (One-Time Paid).
Hello,
Last week, my CTO pulled me out of my cave…
You see, I like to stay home and do my own thing.
I signed up for the gym and bought a personal training package. Now, I have to go to the gym three times a week.
Honestly, it drains my energy, even though it’s just a few hours a day.
So, on the other four days, I prefer to chill at home.
But my CTO had something cool to show me. He said I had to meet him because it’s hard to explain through text.
(Usually, we only talk through text. When we built PODtomatic AI, it was all done through messages—no calls.)
I figured it must be important, so I forced myself to go meet him.
“Hey, what do you have?” I asked.
He quickly opened his laptop and showed me how he can now build a web app in just one day.
“Really? I can do that too. What’s the big deal?” I said, feeling a bit cocky.
He replied, “It’s not just your stupid PHP script.”
He continued, “I’m talking about a real web app where you can create a nice user interface and set up API endpoints to connect with it. You can write in React and use FastAPI without even knowing what they are.”
I started to get interested. I had never learned React, but I knew a little about FastAPI; it’s the API that PODtomatic AI uses.
“Cool, show me how,” I said.
He showed me some tools to create a cool user interface, how to build the API in the backend, and connect it with the frontend.
Now, I can make a bunch of Micro SaaS apps in no time.
Here are some I created:
ReplyBot: A simple app that writes polite replies in any language.
Facebook Ads Copywriter: An app where I can just put in a product image, and it writes the headline and primary text for my Facebook ads.
Jesse PODMan (new version): I added a few API endpoints so users can connect Amazon to Jesse PODMan and update their product listings easily.
Previously, we had to copy and paste titles, descriptions, and bullet points to Jesse PODMan to generate optimized content, which took about 1-2 minutes for each product.
Now, with the new version, you just enter the SKU, and Jesse PODMan fetches the product data from Amazon, optimizes it, lets you check and edit it, and then you click “Submit” to send the updated listing back to Amazon.
You can do all this in a minute or less.
I built ReplyBot and Facebook Ads Copywriter in half a day each.
And I spent two days building this new version of Jesse PODMan, even though I had no prior knowledge of React, FastAPI, or the Amazon API.
All this is thanks to what my CTO taught me.
It was totally worth it to leave my cave this time 😆
When I got back home, I thought Jesse PODMan could be even faster.
So today, I updated it locally (just for me at first).
Check out the new UI of Jesse PODMan:
Looks clean, right?
I just need to connect Amazon to Jesse PODMan, click “Optimize All” and let it optimize ALL my products…
I’ve always wanted to improve the title, description, and bullet points for all my products.
When I first started uploading products (well, my VA did), all the descriptions and bullet points were just basic templates.
When I used PODTurbo and PODtomatic V1, those were also just canned templates.
If I let AI enhance these descriptions and bullet points with rich keywords, I could get way more traffic from Amazon (fingers crossed).
That’s why I updated Jesse PODMan this way.
Right now, I need to keep it just for myself because if I share it for free, I’ll be broke 😅
There are tons of uses for OpenAI. I have about 272,000 products, and it will take a lot of time for AI to optimize them all.
So, I let it run for me, and it’s working on those 272,000 products. It might take a while to finish.
I’m thinking about letting AI teach me how to create multi-threads so I can have many bots working simultaneously.
I’ll look into that tomorrow.
Alright, that’s all for my geeky email.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Talk soon,
—Bank K.
P.S. This email is actually for TAIL members only, but today is my BIRTHDAY!
So, I decided to share it with everyone on my list as a gift. Enjoy! 😊
The TAIL newsletter is where I share my geeky AI stuff. I’ve already written a few issues.
Right now, it’s a one-time payment because I haven’t had time to set up subscriptions yet. Anyone who got my AI Mini-Course a few months ago can read my updates for free.
If you want to join us, **grab the AI Mini-Course and read past issues of TAIL **here - https://pod.thrivecart.com/pod-ai-saas/
I promise the content is worth every dollar because I’m sharing what I’m doing.
And guess what? No one has unsubscribed from this newsletter yet! :)
