The exact notes Tony used to create a post that went viral and get 1.5m views.

[Tony Jacob | FindaClip.com @tonjkb]

To create this post, this is what I typed into the notes section of FindaClip's Post Writer

"What is the project that she is talking about? what is the price tag on it? what are they doing there? what is the goal? what is the name? who are the world famous architects that are working on it as she describes it? what else have the architects worked on? why is the island important? be supportive of her project, talk about how impressive it is and why it's important."

I wanted my final post to focus on the project and expand on it because the clip didn't include the type of information that I thought people would find interesting.

Post Writer then used all of the context available to it from the clip (and youtube video) and my notes to research sources online, get answers to my questions and the create a draft post for me to review.

You can see it followed my direction well and answered my questions i the final post.

Some learnings from using Post Writer and clips going viral using FindaClip

[Tony Jacob | FindaClip.com @tonjkb]

I've been pasting what I create using Post Writer as is without any edits/correction to see how the written posts hold up against public scrutiny

It helps me test a few things

- are the posts providing useful information?
- are people engaging with it?
- is FindaClip's slop prevention working?
- will people figure out it's AI generated?
- will it set off people's slop radar?
- if they do realize it's AI generated, will they care?
- will it go viral?

Not everything I posted went viral (obviously).

I'm noticing that posts where Post Writer was used are going viral (see highlights tab). I think because these post have an angle to them/a personal opinion/point of view etc and provides valuable information (due to Post Writer's steering & research mode).

I'm noticing that most people don't realize it's AI generated. i.e. it's not setting off their slop radar (FindaClip's slop prevention working overtime)

I don't think that most people care that it's created with the help of AI

I think that if the post provides value and is engaging to read, I think people will read & engage

From 9 clips that went viral, 1 had an issue.
The Ivanka post from yesterday that went viral was poisoned by a bad title that affected the final draft and people pointed it out (i.e. swimming barefoot 🤣). This easily preventable & being fixed.

Posting publicly helps me incorporate learnings faster and fix stuff faster

Don't think there is any other way to do this than to post publicly and see how people react.

Have you tried the Post Writer?

[Tony Jacob | FindaClip.com @tonjkb]

I built a new FindClip feature called Post Writer

It helps you write well researched expert posts about the clip FindaClip finds

You can steer the generated post in any direction you want based on your notes

Research mode googles for reputable sources that support your take and uses the facts it finds to create a richer post

I like asking it questions about the things discussed in the clip I'm not an expert at that I know will make the post more interesting for reader. It researches those questions and follows my direction to create a useful post about the clip

It's how I've been creating my written posts that accompany my clips

The democratization of AI is already stalling out. For the past year, the assumption was that anyone with a $20 subscription had the same powerful tools as a Fortune 500 company. That era is over. The shift to usage-based pricing is building a quiet infrastructure divide.

Investor Gavin Baker points out the underlying math. Flat-rate monthly plans now deliver a rate-limited, degraded version of the model.

Providers cannot afford to offer unconstrained reasoning for a flat fee. True frontier intelligence requires massive compute, forcing a shift from unlimited access to metered billing.

This fundamentally changes who wins. The individual is left relying on a throttled consumer tier. The well-funded enterprise pays for the raw, uncapped cognitive agent.

The future of high-tier knowledge work is strictly pay-to-play. Unless open source models close the performance gap, the new rule is simple.

If you cannot afford the compute, you are no longer at the frontier.

A guest on Caleb Hammer's financial show is planning to buy a $2,500 shipping container bunker to survive doomsday. There is just one massive problem: she can't even afford a $400 dryer repair. They call this behavior "Doomsday Procrastination," and it happens constantly.

She isn't actually preparing for the end of the world. She's buying expensive props to escape the reality of her immediate financial collapse.

This is retail therapy in camouflage. Growing low-calorie cucumbers in a flood-prone state like Florida isn't a survival strategy. It is an anxiety response to a life she feels she can't control.

The human brain prefers the excitement of planning for a global catastrophe over the mundane, humiliating pain of fixing a broken budget. An apocalypse offers a comforting fantasy: a clean slate. Her finances doesn't.

You can spot this often. People fixate on a cinematic, imaginary threat so they can justify ignoring disasters in their own lives.

True preparedness requires capital. Amateur prepping on a deficit doesn't save you from the end of the world. It just guarantees financial ruin.

The shift from edited podcasts to IRL streaming broke the "alpha male" influencer model. You can fake dominance for two hours behind a microphone. You cannot fake it for twelve hours straight with a camera strapped to your chest. The format change forces a new strategy.

Clavicular notes that the red pill persona requires playing a character around the clock. If you stream your whole day live, the mask inevitably slips.

Think of it like method acting. Even the best actors drop character eventually. When your business model requires broadcasting unedited for hours, your baseline personality is the only scalable asset you have.

Projecting flawless dominance is too exhausting to sustain. Live audiences have a sharp radar for fake personas. Showing weakness and failing on camera is no longer just a tactic to look relatable. It is a survival mechanic for staying relevant under constant observation.

George Kamel explains why Dave Ramsey would never hire Caleb Hammer

"Would you guys hire Caleb Hammer?"

"I would say if hell froze over, we would consider it. I think Caleb and Dave are so at odds with their principles, their values, their faith, the way they carry themselves, their mission, and their goals that it would not make sense to work here. You have to have a similar mind and similar values, and Caleb just doesn't have those. It's not a knock against Caleb, but we don't have that type of content around here, and we have a different mission."

"When you say that type of content, what is the main thing you're thinking of?"

"I would say the cussing. It's not family-friendly. We have a set of values that are faith-based that I think would be jarring for Caleb to then adhere to or grapple with in this building. And our mission is not to scale at all costs, which I think Caleb is just a young entrepreneurial guy. He wants to scale and there's not much stopping him. This place has been around for 30-something years. We have a thousand people. We represent something bigger than us, and we're not willing to water that down to get more clicks and views, which Caleb would obviously get. The guy crushes it. But to us, it's not worth it, and it's why we don't do that style of content."

You can now record your screen inside FindaClip and download clips

[Tony Jacob | FindaClip.com @tonjkb]

Introducing the "Record Screen" feature to create clips from YouTube videos

When I initially built FindaClip, I mistakenly thought what everyone wanted was high quality pixel perfect clips

That's why I had built the video upload

You could upload any video and you could find great viral moments and create clips out of them

And it did it very quickly. It strips the audio from the video on your own computer so AI could analyze the content right away providing you with clips even before the video was full uploaded. It work like magic every time.

It's continues to be the fastest way to get clips from a video file. Faster than any other solution.

But there was an issue. You still had to either own the video file or download it from somewhere and then upload it to FindaClip. And this is a major point of friction.

Before, after you pasted in a YouTube URL, FindaClip could tell you which moments to clip but there wasn't a way to create and download those clips without making the product extremely expensive to pay for bandwidth costs.

And a lot of customers just wanted to download clips by simply pasting in a YouTube video URL.

After talking to a lot of customers I realized that a lot of them were using screen recorders to create clips. They would use the start and end timestamp from FindaClip and would sync up the YouTube video player to record their screens.

This is how a lot of people create clips on X. And my assumption that they cared about pixel perfect quality went out the window.

They just wanted to to quickly create clips with as little friction as possible and pixel perfect quality became a secondary priority. Speed and minimal effort was everything.

Once I understood this, I had to help my customers make their screen recording process even easier.

Which is why I've built in the Record Clip button for all YouTube Clips within FindaClip. On the desktop browser (Chromium) it records the clip automatically. You don't have to do anything other than press start recording. You can edit the start/end timestamps to tweak the start/end of the clip.

For mobile users it uses a mobile assist mode so that customers can use their phone's native screen recorder without having to mess around with the video controls. It makes it super easy to record.

It saves you so much time and effort, especially paired with the Auto Find feature (find clips when you sleep).

It is the fastest way to create clips you can post. It helps you post more clips with minimal effort.

FindaClip helps you make money as a clipper. It finds viral moments for you, create titles for each post, creates the speaker quotes and now creates the clips for you making the job of the clipper about reviewing and selecting which moments to post.

Dana White blasts Warriors owner for trying to force him to remove his Celtics hoodie

"I love going to NBA games and I'm a big Celtics fan and me and Ari Emanuel go to Celtics versus Warriors, right? So, I got my Celtics hoodie on and we're sitting there and I can't remember his name, the owner of the He's like the majority owner, him and his wife. And they come in and they're sitting a couple seats over from us. And he walks up to me. He's like, 'Oh, I heard you were here or this and that.' He's like, 'Are you serious with that hoodie?' You know, I get it. Whatever. I think he's joking. So, he literally starts trying to unzip my thing, my hoodie and whatever. So, well, [ __ ] I start grabbing his and I'm going to pull his off, too, if we're going to What do we You know, and you know, his wife's talking smack to me and you know, I'm thinking this is all in fun and whatever. And then she goes like this and she's got championship rings on every finger and I go, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get him.' You know, so we go through this whole thing and he sits down and we're watching the game and halftime's coming up. Now, if you've ever gone to an NBA game, at the end they have like a green room and stuff that you go back in. And Ari leans over to me and says, he says, 'Uh, you're not going to be able to go back there if you don't take that hoodie off.'"

"And I said, 'Well, tell him he can keep his stale [ __ ] pretzels and his [ __ ] shitty beer. I'll sit here during halftime. I'm not taking my [ __ ] Celtics hoodie off.' Right."

"Jeez. And to Ari's credit, me and Ari are out there during halftime and just like, 'Are you [ __ ] kidding me?'"

Dana White shares crazy story of Taylor Swift fans buying adult diapers for concerts

"The store was like, 'This is crazy. What's going on?' And they realized 10 miles out of town there was some sort of festival. So people were coming in and buying tents and all this stuff. So they tried to see what's going on in all the different areas. Then adult diapers started selling out in all of their stores. One store got hit, all the adult diapers were gone. Then a week later, another store in another city, all the adult diapers got wiped out. Taylor Swift concerts. They were buying adult diapers so they didn't miss one song."

"No."

"Yeah. So, when you really know you've hit a level of success, where grown-ups are buying adult diapers so they don't miss one of your songs at your concert, I don't know how you could gain success better than that."

Dana White forced his son to work at U-Haul to learn the value of a 'shitty job'

"I'm not going to make calls. I'm not. So I made him go out, put out applications. I said, 'If I drop dead tomorrow, this is what you're qualified to do. You didn't go to college.' So, he went out and put out applications and he ended up working at U-Haul for a while."

"Did he drop out and work at U-Haul or..."

"Mhm. So, after he dropped out, he had to go out and look for jobs and he got a job at U-Haul and he had to clean out the back of the trucks. He had to fix broken tail lights. He had to move trucks from different places. You have to have that shitty job that you don't like at a young age so that you can understand. I could have made a thousand phone calls and got him something, but nope, we're not doing that. And to his credit, he went out, he did it, and he learned."

Dana White says he's 'into this slapping stuff' and is his most successful venture

"Power Slap. Literally, I saw these guys in 17, 18 slapping each other on social media. I took a deeper dive into it and I said, 'Holy shit, this is interesting.' And I called the Fertitta Brothers and I said, 'Hey, I'm into this slapping stuff. I think I'm going to do this.'

And they said, 'How much money you need?' And I said, 'I need a million dollars from both of you.' So, all three of us put up a million bucks. And this thing does a billion views a month."

"No way."

"A billion views a month. Yeah. It's the most successful thing I've ever been a part of in such a short amount of time."
