Building GetFluxly: turn product events into lifecycle emails for small SaaS teams. Sharing the build, bugs and all.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

I tried to skip customer io by building my own lifecycle emails. The branching took a weekend. The plumbing , identity stitching, the convert mid wait race, frequency caps, took two months. Not to mention the shit load of data to handle. That gap is why I am building GetFluxly.

@Guronnimo If you're starting from scratch then X would be a better place.

If you already have some credibility/following then reddit people are the most loyal and good place to be in.

If you want to post cringe then go to linkedIn.

Sell the value not the product is such an underrated advice. Everyone ignores it until they can't anymore.

@saen_dev Interesting I haven’t tried that, I didn’t even know I could turn Reddit posts into blog content. I’ll look into it. Thanks!

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

These are my unique visits to my landing page.

I used to market consistently on reddit. Stopped posting, from about June 30, due to my birthday and possible pivot in the app.

The results are showing, the traffic has practically died down.

Being consistent is the KEY.

@SimonHoiberg I mean I use supabase for both the auth and db, it works stupidly good. And vercel only for static pages. Hetzner for the actual app. I don’t see a problem or issue except migration from supabase in the far far future.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

Drop your landing page.

I will tell you if I understand what you’re trying to sell in 10 seconds.

Something is cooking in GetFluxly, big things and updates coming soon!

Really excited for the future of GetFluxly.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

Did anyone notice, claude silently dropped the sonnet only limit from the weekly limits, now it will be bundled with all models. Tokenomics is going to be the next huge thing guys.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

If your website has .vercel or .netifly, it’s an immediate no for me.

At least buy a cheap domain, unpopular domains are really cheap and the name matters way less in the initial stages anyway.

The domain with good TLD always looks trust worthy.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

@victor_bigfield Yep that sums it up.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

How important is having a MCP for initial setup for a SaaS?

Is it a deal breaker?

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

Weekly reminder: start distribution right now, don't wait for the product.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

@icanvardar That is so true, I stopped using words like rebase, clone, fetch. It’s all do this do that in normal English and it handles it.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

A literal gold mine, check it out!

Postiz is on $145k MRR!
Right now, we are growing by $1k MRR per day (some days are better) and will probably hit $2m ARR this week.

But how can Postiz be growing that fast?
What about the competitors?
Why do some of them even struggle to pass the $1k MRR?

This is my point of view on the subject.
But it relates to everyone.
Try to listen. It might help you with your startup.

NGL the one shots are crazy work.

Claude Fable 5 is so back from timeout.

And people are already going crazy with it.

10 wild examples:

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

Are we getting closer to AI singularity?

Claude is making it seem like that. Damn, it’s like I need to find out what it can’t do at this point. INSANE.

New feature update!

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

New feature coming to GetFluxly.

Users can now chat to create automations(fully context aware about the website, traits used, naming conventions and design language), no longer needed to fiddle with the drag and drop builder, just prompt and reiterate until you hit it.

Users can also create custom segments, templates again fully context aware, using just chat.

Also everything is still deterministic only, just the creating part has been handed off to LLMs, so, no random fire offs and probabilistic automations.

Feature will be live on GetFluxly in the coming few days.

Exciting stuff!

Testing the new fable, designs are mid, but it is stupidly fast, especially when compared to the opus.

Haven't tested the coding part yet, but I can already tell it's speed.

[MD2 @madeByMD2]

@PedroGuiti Getting first users, then talking to them about the product.
