Instila is officially live today 🚀

We just launched on Product Hunt.

Been working toward this for a while, so it feels pretty surreal to finally put it out publicly.

If you’ve been following what we’ve been building, I’d really appreciate you checking out the launch, leaving feedback, and supporting us on Product Hunt.

Would mean a lot

@polsia The install is the product. Sit beside the owner and stay until the first order actually goes through.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@uriel_builds Add a source field to every signup. You’ll know which founder DMs and posts are doing the work.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@cobble_dev_ten Five away. Post one weird thing that happened while building Cobble and you’ll probably hit 100 tonight.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@tinkerpochi French next. You can reuse most of the UI and test it with a big audience.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@roudyhermez Codex medium feels faster on clear tasks for me too. Claude spends more time exploring the repo before it edits.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@OrcunDanismaz New one. The three-step visual makes the workflow clear before I read the paragraph.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@hasaan_azeem Building Instila, an AI COO for software teams. I’m shrinking it this week because the dashboard got too broad.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@adamofk_ Two paying customers on day one is sick. What did they search before MentionCatch found them?

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@uriel_builds I’m in. I’ll use the Instila cleanup as my challenge.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@Jacqui_Gitau Are you using partial results so the text appears while they’re speaking? That makes voice input feel way faster.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@ItsEkAItzV Yeah. I’ve been building past the feedback. I’m cutting Instila down this week and talking to users before I add anything else.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

AI coding made it way easier to build the wrong thing faster.

I keep catching myself adding features when I should be talking to users.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@shownotover The one-click restyle is slick. Does it preserve custom components or replace the whole page?

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@the_codewala I time the request, then check server and database time separately. Usually one of them is eating most of it.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@Sacredcorey Yep. If they can use it without messaging me, the product finally explained itself.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@engwaliullah Which output gets used most? I’d bet on the blog post.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@DanKornas Does each roadmap end with a project? People need a clear point where they can say, “Okay, I’m ready to apply.”

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@grabbitlive @convex The live npm and GitHub counts got me. You see how many people use it before reading the docs.

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@SahilPanhotra I respect the random Monday drop lol. Has anyone tried Muse Code on a real repo yet?

[Ryan Zander @ywzander]

@oldstackjournal Nine spots with five hours left is close. How many votes separate you from the top five?
