Anthropic pays $750,000+ a year for engineers who can build LLM architectures from scratch. Stanford taught the entire thing in 1 hour lecture & released it for free.

@wholemars Great take

A huge part of the job of launching an app is marketing, which means I need to have a great marketing site showcasing the features of my live video engineering app Vantaview.

To be honest, this is probably my favorite part about the app creation, building out something that displays what the software is capable of.

I built a website using React.js laying out not only the features, but the pricing tiers, user authentication, a user dashboard, and payment processing.

But a website itself isn't enough, when the app is out on the market, I'm expecting that I'm going to have to do a lot more to get this product in the hands of live production companies and hobbyists.

I plan on utilizing my video skills to make lots of of YouTube/TikTok/Reels videos showcasing the features of the app.

After all, what's the point of spending months on a product if no one knows about it?

After all of this work I understand why marketing and development are two seperate jobs that require different skillsets but are also wholly dependent on one another for the product to be succesful.

If the product sucks ass, then marketing is pointless. And if there's no makreting, then you're making a product for no one.

My marketing website's not done yet, but for the sake of transparency, I'll share the link here so you can see how much I've built for it.

As part of my descision not to distribute my video engineering app, Vantaview on the Mac App Store, part of the job has been creating a channel for users to download the software via its marketing website.

This workflow included letting users sign up for accounts, setting up payment processing, and figuring out how to make my software be able to download as a DMG.

I was not so pleasently surprised that even if you release Mac software without going through the App Store, you still need to pay the $99/yr fee, which is lame, but whatever.

I set up user authentication with Supbase, which will be holding all of the account info, and payment processing will be going through Stripe.

Users need a user dashboard to view their account info so I threw that together using React.

I gotta say, getting all of this working was almost as difficult as making the app itself.

Although the app isn't 100% ready for go-time, I wanted to get the proper channels in order so that I can deploy quickly when the time comes.

I'd also like to create a workflow that will effortlessly let me deploy updates to the users, I'm thinking something like how ChatGPT does it or even Adobe.

Vantaview will be released in stages, with the cheapest tier being released first.

I'm hoping for a beta release of Vantaview Stream out by next summer (hopefully).

Follow for more updates and to get a chance to try out the beta software for free!

Over the past four months, I've been building Vantaview, the ultimate live video production suite.

With Vantaview users will be able to stream their games, computer, or live events to any streaming platform...

while integrating effects, text, mix audio, and more...

[Jonathan - Processing Power! @bon_jenn]

And the final tier will be called Vantaview Pro.

Vantaview Pro will be your all-in-one AI video engineer for your live productions.

Feed it your cameras, and it will use computer vision to intelligently switch between angles while you actually enjoy the show.

If you're using PTZ cameras, Vantaview Pro will be able to pan, tilt, and zoom on the correct subjects without your guidance.

Simply plug-and-go! Let Vantaview Pro direct and stream the show for you!
