Not a software dev. Just a engineering tech who got obsessed. Started with ChatGPT → Roo Code → Cline → Cursor → Claude Code Built 2 SaaS products. Zero traction. I need help. Thread on my journey, struggles, and why I can’t crack this 🧵

Huge shoutout and thanks to the creators who've inspired me massively on YouTube: @rileybrown_ai, @gregisenberg, and @robshocks 🙏 I've been building internal apps for my work for the past year, but your content pushed me to start shipping SaaS products publicly. Just launched

Over the holidays I'm building "Santa's Burn" 🔥🎄 It's Cards Against Humanity... but way darker, way funnier, and fully online/multiplayer. Friends join via QR code in seconds – no apps, no bullshit. The host? An AI with voice like Ricky Gervais crossed with Jimmy Carr.

Google: Creates the best products (Search, Maps, YouTube) but launches new ones like they’re beta testing on us. Bard? Now Antigravity? So much potential, so much pain. Waiting for the day Google launches something that just… works. Day 1. No asterisks. 🙏

To everyone killing it with their SaaS: How do you get those first users? What marketing actually works? Should I focus on one product? Any feedback on my sites would mean everything. Just an engineer trying to figure this out. @levelsio @marclou

Real talk - I built these to supplement my main income. Not trying to go viral or make millions. Just want people to find value in what I’ve created. Santa’s Whisper: https://t.co/7yiooeCQyr Blazedocs: https://t.co/Hu6aTz3Uep What am I doing wrong?

My process: •BMAD method for planning •Spec-driven development •Claude Code for everything (tried Droid, Open Code, stuck with Claude) I can build anything now. But I’m realizing: building isn’t the problem. Marketing is.

At my engineering job, I built: •Automated time tracker for projects •Drawing register that sorts through 100s of BIM drawings Colleagues use them daily. Love them. Thought I could replicate this success publicly. I was wrong.

The obsession is real. Mind racing 24/7 with ideas. Can’t sleep without sketching new features. Wife thinks I’ve lost it. Built Santa’s Whisper (AI Santa videos) and Blazedocs (PDF→Markdown). Both work. People who try them love them. But nobody’s finding them.

That moment when your kid realizes every “personalized” Santa video is the same 😬 Fixed it. Built Santa’s Whisper - AI creates unique videos for each child. Real names. Real achievements. Real magic. What’s the one thing Santa should know about your kid? https://t.co/7yiooeDonZ

I waste 10hrs/week reformatting PDFs for my second brain So I built a converter that actually works: ✅ Tables intact ✅ Links preserved✅ OCR included ✅ $9/mo (others charge $20+) What’s your biggest PDF pain? https://t.co/Hu6aTz4s3X #PKM #SecondBrain
