@marclou Blue pill, as I still have just 1 follower since 2010 😭

@turkkberkayy Great, good luck

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

@marclou 🙊

@turkkberkayy Praying same 😢

OpenAl just slashed GPT-5.6 Luna pricing by 80% - $0.20/M tokens. Three weeks after launch. The Al price war is real and indie builders are the biggest winners here. Your microSaaS margins just got way better. The cost moat around Al-first products is evaporating in real time.

I am keeping the exact industry, target audience, and specific use-case under wraps for now.

I want to make sure I iron out all the edge cases and harden the architecture before making a lot of noise about what exactly it is built for. 🕵️‍♂️

@marclou That's great Marc :)

Finally, I needed a way to monitor all of this activity.

I spun up a custom Next.js admin dashboard. It gives business owners a bird's-eye view of all Al interactions, active bookings, and system health

in real-time.

#NextJS #WebDev

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

To make it truly smart, the system needed a brain and a memory.

Every single interaction, booking, and user detail is now automatically logged straight into a Supabase backend. Total data continuity, handled entirely by the AI. 💾🧠

#Supabase #Backend

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

A chatbot is useless if it can't take action. The next step was giving the AI write-access.

I integrated it directly with the calendar and database for zero-touch booking. No double entries, no email ping-pong. Just instant, autonomous work.

#API #Development

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

But people don't just call anymore; they text.

So I brought that same intelligence to messaging. I deployed specialized Al agents on WhatsApp and Telegram. Now, the system handles parallel conversations across multiple channels simultaneously.

#Automation

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

First up: Voice.

I integrated a custom Voice API. I wanted a live conversational AI that doesn't sound like a rigid robot. It answers instantly, triages the caller's intent, and routes the inquiry to the right place. 📞🤖

#VoiceAI #TechStartup

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

So, I opened my code editor and started building.

The goal? An autonomous, multi-agent system that requires ZERO human intervention for routine operations. A system that runs 24/7 without breaking a sweat.

#SoftwareEngineering #AgenticAl

[Maan @GoldSmithCodes]

Every time a call is missed or a booking requires back-and-forth emails, money is left on the table.

I realized this isn't just a staffing issue; it's a systems issue. And it’s a massive bottleneck that I can solve with AI.

Over the past few weeks, I kept hearing the exact same complaint from several business owners.

They are completely drowning. Drowning in repetitive admin tasks, calls, and scheduling. It's killing their productivity.

Started something..

Anthropic & Blackstone bet $100B: AI gold rush is implementation, not training models. They embed engineers in enterprises. Solo devs knew. Skip GPT-6. 10x someone's workflow. That's the real moat.

Early stage of a new idea: research and validation.

Implemented an open-source Google Maps scraper to start fishing for leads. Nothing to show yet, just exploring options, seeing what sticks.

What's your process for validating a side project before writing code?
