I’m building Searchlivio from scratch.
The idea: help businesses understand whether AI search engines recommend them, and what they can do about it.
I’m sharing the entire journey here.
The product decisions. The mistakes. The experiments. The wins.
Let’s see where this goes.
The biggest mistake in SaaS marketing is treating every visitor like a potential customer.
More traffic isn't always growth.
Sometimes the fastest way to grow is to make your product painfully clear about who it's NOT for.
Most founders are too afraid to do that.
AI visibility dashboards are becoming the new vanity metrics.
Knowing ChatGPT mentioned your brand is interesting.
Knowing why it recommended your competitor instead is valuable.
That's the difference between selling charts and solving problems.
The SaaS industry has a weird obsession with adding features nobody asked for.
Every new button feels like progress to the founder.
To the customer, it's another reason to close the tab.
Complexity is often just insecurity disguised as innovation.
