  Naveen (@thewidellens_) reported 4 minutes ago

  A resource does not stay free because it has no value. It stays free because nobody with leverage has yet decided it is worth pricing. Three very different organizations just proved this in three very different ways this year. Value and price are not the same thing. Community discussions, curated knowledge, technical documentation, all of it can carry enormous value while carrying a price of zero, simply because nobody built a mechanism to extract that value at scale before now. A new extraction mechanism changes the equation regardless of what the owner does. AI systems consume content at a scale nothing before them could, so content too diffuse to ever bother pricing suddenly aggregates into something genuinely valuable in bulk. The content did not change. The economics around it did. Rising demand creates leverage, but only for whoever acts on it first. Reddit blocked AI crawlers from its entire domain the same week it joined the S&P 500, converting an assumption into a negotiated asset overnight. Wikipedia, a nonprofit funded by donations, signed paid Enterprise licensing deals with Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Perplexity in January, after bot traffic drove its bandwidth costs up 50 percent, bots responsible for 65 percent of its most expensive server requests. Even a mission driven organization recognized the same leverage. News publishers show the scale in dollars, OpenAIs licensing deal with News Corp alone is reported at 250 million dollars over five years. Stack Overflow shows what happens when you wait. Its question volume collapsed from 200,000 a month in 2014 to 50,000 by late 2025, as developers simply asked AI models instead. It had to rebuild its entire business model after the fact, far more painful than a single configuration file, because it reacted only once the value had already left. One honest caveat, no single publisher holds dominant leverage, even the largest deals number in single digits, AI companies are deliberately spreading their sourcing. The leverage is real, it is not unlimited. If your organization sits on content it has never priced, that silence is a decision, made by default, and the value does not stay available to claim indefinitely.

  I joined Convex in February to figure out how to Get That Money. Since then we've sponsored newsletters, paid creators to make videos shilling us, poured thousands into Google and Reddit ads, and hired an expensive AEO agency that tried to convince us to hook a slop cannon to our website. But when we looked at the data, nothing was working. Paid ads bought crap traffic with 2.5x the bounce rate, and ~$100k in sponsorships bought a trickle of very expensive visitors who didn't build anything (and cost us $100+ per click). Revenue was accelerating, but it appeared to be completely unrelated to our efforts. The thing that's actually working: the startup program. Startup cohorts grow their spend 30x over 24 months. Winning infra trust is brutal; the signals that earn it are expensive and hard to fake. So we're killing the experiments and tripling down on what's working.

  I felt like there's huuuggee leverage in proper web search for AI agents. And of course it's obvious, but for some reason there hasn't been much talk about it — or I somehow missed it. Plain web search is weak, that's why I created the solution-scouting skill, so my agents dig through different solutions and tools really thoroughly — not just through web search, but through deep search across specific sources (GitHub repos, Reddit, X, etc). And it turned out that proper GitHub search was enough for me, since I never felt the need to wire up anything sophisticated for deeper in-platform search on X and Reddit. But... I wired Exa in as an extra tool outside this skill, just to see how it'd work, and I found it incredibly useful — though mostly for my personal agents, not the coding ones. For code specifically, semantic search feels like the wrong tool, at least logically (tho maybe I should try it there too). And yep, a few days ago my experience got backed up again by one of swyx's issues. Also, an honest review of the solution-scouting skill: incredibly effective, but I rewrote the description in my local copy (will push it to gh soon). The previous one was too aggressive, so it sometimes fired on any turn containing "build"/"implement" — even when we were working on an already-agreed architecture, which made it redundant.

  Digital_Habibi (@shaheenllc) reported 27 minutes ago

  If I had to start a digital-products business from $0 today, I wouldn't start by building a website. I wouldn't create a logo. I wouldn't spend weeks designing an ebook. And I definitely wouldn't create 10 products. I'd do this: DAY 1 Choose ONE audience. Not "everyone interested in business." Something specific. Example: "Beginner freelancers trying to get their first 3 clients." DAY 2 Find 20–50 real problems they are talking about. Search X. Read Reddit. Read YouTube comments. Look at competitor reviews. Look at questions people repeatedly ask. DAY 3 Pick the problem that appears most frequently AND has a clear desired outcome. DAY 4 Create a free piece of content that solves part of it. Example: "10 messages you can send to potential freelance clients." DAY 5 Create a small paid product that solves the bigger problem. Example: "The First 3 Clients System." Include: • Client research process • Outreach templates • Follow-up scripts • Proposal template • Pricing framework • Tracking sheet • Daily action plan DAY 6 Create 10 pieces of content from the product. You now have: 10 problems → 10 posts. DAY 7 Publish. Then repeat. The important part is this: Your product and your content should come from the SAME source. The customer's problem. That's how you avoid running out of content. If your product solves: "How to get your first 3 freelance clients" you suddenly have dozens of content topics: "Why freelancers don't get replies." "How many prospects should you contact?" "Cold DM vs cold email." "Why your portfolio isn't converting." "How to follow up without sounding desperate." "How to price your first project." One product can create months of content. And the content can continuously introduce people to the product. That's leverage. Not: Create product → post randomly → hope someone buys. But: Research problem → create solution → teach the solution → build trust → sell the deeper solution. Start with the problem. Everything else becomes easier. Like the post and get a free 20 digital products that sells crazy in 2026.

  The biggest mistake people make with digital products: They create the product first. Then they try to find someone who wants it. That's backwards. The better sequence is: Problem → Audience → Demand → Solution → Product Here's how it works: 1. Find a group of people with a specific problem. Not "people who want to make money." That's too broad. Instead: "Beginners who want to sell their first digital product but don't know what to create." Now you have a specific person. 2. Find what they're already asking. Look at: • Reddit questions • X posts • YouTube comments • Facebook groups • Quora • Google searches • Reviews of competing products Don't ask: "What digital product should I create?" Ask: "What problem are people repeatedly trying to solve?" That's where the money is. 3. Turn the problem into an outcome. Bad product: "100 AI Prompts" Better: "100 AI Prompts to Create Your First Digital Product in 7 Days" The second one sells an outcome, not a pile of information. 4. Create the smallest useful solution. You don't need 300 pages. You might need: • 30 prompts • 5 templates • 3 checklists • 1 workflow • 1 implementation guide The customer doesn't care how much content you created. They care whether it helps them get somewhere. 5. Create content around the problem. This is where X becomes powerful. Don't constantly say: "Buy my product." Instead teach: "Why your digital product isn't selling." "How to validate an idea before building it." "5 reasons people don't buy ebooks." "How to turn one problem into 10 products." Now your content attracts the exact people who have the problem your product solves. That's the real digital-product funnel: Problem → Content → Trust → Product → Customer Don't start by asking: "What can I sell?" Start by asking: "What problem can I solve better?" That single change can completely change how you build digital products.

  The problem: I was running Hermes Agent (free, open-source) for cold email, ads, Reddit posts & more. I thought Grok Bot's viral multi-agent architecture would crush it. Most people assume expensive = better. They're wrong. Hermes handled context, scheduling & multi-tool workflows better than Grok at every turn.

  I’ve seen way too many posts on X about “how to find your ICP.” Most are the same complicated AI-generated frameworks nobody actually follows. So here’s my take in 5 simple steps: 1. Understand what ICP actually means Don’t just learn the term. Your ICP is basically the type of customer who needs your product the most and is most likely to buy it. 2. Look at your competitors See who they are selling to. Some might target smaller companies, while others go after bigger ones. This helps you understand the market and where you could fit. 3. Decide who you’re looking for Look at things like: • What industry are they in? Be specific. “Tech companies” is too broad. Are they a SaaS company, agency, IT services company, marketplace, etc.? • How big is the company? This depends on the level of client you want to target. • Who would use your product? Look at their job roles and figure out who actually uses it and who makes the buying decision. • What problem do they have? The same problem can be described in many ways. Think about how they would describe it, not just how you describe it. • What stage is the company at? Early-stage, growing, established, etc. • Can they afford your product? There’s no point targeting someone who has the problem but has no budget to solve it. • What would make them buy it now? Maybe they’re hiring for that area, just hired someone, growing quickly, raised funding, entered a new market, or even talked about the problem publicly. Now you have your first ICP hypothesis. 4. Find where they hang out Once you know who you’re looking for, figure out where they spend their time. Reddit? X? LinkedIn? Slack? Discord? Events? Newsletters? Niche communities? Go where they already are. 5. Talk to them Now contact them. Ask about the problem. Ask how they solve it today. Ask what they’ve tried. See if what you assumed in step 3 is actually true. If it isn’t: Go back to step 3 and change it. That’s it. Your ICP isn’t something you magically figure out in one afternoon. It’s something you keep getting less wrong. I’m on the same path as you.

  The complete guide to Reddit marketing: - Rule #1: Don't market. Be helpful. That's the whole strategy. - Lurk for 2 weeks before posting. Learn the culture. - Sort by "new" not "hot." Answer questions before threads blow up. - Your comment history is your resume. Make it helpful. - Never drop links unprompted. Let people find you through your profile. - Put what you do in your bio. One line. Keep it human. - Answer with stories, not advice. "Here's what worked for me" beats "you should do X." - Build 500+ karma before any soft promotion. - When you mention your product, always disclose it's yours. - Expect nothing for 2 months. Month 3 is when DMs start. It's slow. That's why it works. Most people quit early.

  00:19:53–00:22:52 00:19:53 But it also means we need to temper our expectations with what these agents can do if it's humans driving it, and you have three layers of approval and all the other machinery of a large corporation. 00:20:05 The implementation part is only a small segment of it. 00:20:13 The other thing I'd say is that most organizations don't know what they want. 00:20:20 They don't know how to make it better. 00:20:20 They're not bottlenecked on implementation. 00:20:24 They're bottlenecked on ideas. 00:20:28 They're bottlenecked on vision. 00:20:28 They're bottlenecked on taste. 00:20:32 And if you don't have those element in excess of your implementational capacity, it doesn't help. 00:20:40 So you can make a lot of ****** ideas come true, then what? 00:20:44 Are you gonna ship that? 00:20:46 That sounds like, I don't know, something coming out of Microsoft. 00:20:46 That's not what we're trying to replicate here. 00:20:50 That process is not actually... 00:20:50 Because we already had this. 00:20:54 If you step back for a moment and think of the towering organizations we have who have had tens of thousands of programmers at their disposal. 00:21:06 I mean, I'm picking on Microsoft here. 00:21:06 I love Microsoft some of the time, but I'll pick on them in this case because they have had endless resources, endless programming capacity for decades, right? 00:21:14 This is what's showing us that just being able to write a lot of code does not produce great compelling software. 00:21:23 Now, the other thing is we've had this capacity for about six months. 00:21:29 That's not very long in human life cycle capacity of internalizing what's going on. 00:21:40 And I think it's actually funny that the critique of AI is, why isn't it going faster? 00:21:47 What are you talking about? 00:21:47 We've not had any other form of progress that has moved as fast as AI, and you're impatient because in the last three months we haven't rewritten the whole world and made it a utopia of software goodness? 00:21:59 You're basically saying everybody should be switching to Linux now. 00:21:59 One of the arguments is, like, we can rewrite all the software that's not available in Linux in Linux. 00:22:06 Linux has been the love of my life for many years, but one of the reasons I'm still attached to Windows and now, uh, Mac is because of video editing, Premiere. 00:22:15 We're gonna fix that. 00:22:15 But- 00:22:17 So the question is, who's gonna build Premiere and Photoshop for Linux? 00:22:20 And it feels like one person can now. 00:22:27 100% one person can. 00:22:28 And so, and I'm allowed to be impatient. 00:22:28 In fact, me or anyone else, impatience is the first step of doing it yourself, right? 00:22:35 Like- 00:22:40 Correct. 00:22:40 ... and there's a community of tens of thousands of people that use Adobe Premiere or DaVinci, all these non-linear video editors, that know the frustrations. 00:22:48 Everybody shares them. 00:22:48 You can look at Reddit. 00:22:48 You can look at the forums. 00:22:52 Everybody knows it. 00:22:52 Uh, I don't know what it is. 00:22:52 It may be the management.
