Building Chancey (blind boxes for Shopify)

[Pokgai @pokgairay]

MF's dropping gacha mechanisms on a Shopify store.

The gachafacation of e-commerce is here.

This is the real potential of gacha commerce: it doesn't have to replace normal shopping.

Let buyers choose between paying for certainty or playing for a better price.

[Pokgai @pokgairay]

Another way people are using Chancey to spice up their Shopify storefront

1. Set up a normal listing where buyers get to choose what they get for full price

2. Set up an interactive blind box version for a discounted price with re-rolls turned on.

@uberoxbt Sick! Can't wait to try.

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

Every #Shopify merchant I talk to has the same problem: product photography is expensive and slow.

So we built an AI app @Prodofoto that generates professional product photos right inside Shopify. Select a product, describe the shot, get four photos in 30-60 seconds.

But the edit feature is what I'm most excited about. You can swap backgrounds, change models, adjust the whole vibe of a photo without starting over. Just type what you want changed and it does it.

We're in beta, free for early testers. Reply "PHOTOS" if you want in.

@uberoxbt Keep these insights coming!

Video concept Brainy 🧠 came up with

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

I got diagnosed with ADHD at 25. Suddenly all the "smart but talks too much" report cards made sense.

The problem was never motivation. It was structure.

So I built an AI accountability partner named Brainy 🧠.

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

This week I shot my first TikTok. I'd been wanting to for 3 weeks but never started.

Brainy researched trending sounds, analyzed what was working in my niche, and gave me an angle — all in under 5 minutes. Script, references, everything ready.

I just had to press record. 30 minutes start to finish.

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

If you're building with ADHD — what systems actually work for you?

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

I'm not saying AI fixes ADHD.

But a system that remembers when you forget, nudges when you freeze, and makes action the easy part?

That's the cheat code.

[Brian Chen @briannotbrain]

I made a #SuperBowl style ad for an egg because why not.

Tech stack:
🧠 Brainy (my AI agent) for content ideas + video prompts
🎬 Kling 3.0 for video generation
✂️ CapCut for quick editing
🎙️ My voice for the voiceover (everyone says I should've been a radio host)
