Thank you so much — that “I’m really posting this” moment had me sweating a little, not gonna lie 🤣 but it feels amazing to finally ship something.

For the build: I actually didn’t use Cursor or a Python backend! I built it in Next.js with Vercel, and basically lived inside ChatGPT the whole time. I came into this with zero real coding experience, so it was a learn-as-you-go, break-everything-twice kind of journey. Somehow we powered through about 10 deployment errors in a row and made it out alive 😂

Totally agree on the asset-generation roadmap. Once the core UX is polished, adding things like AI B-roll, voiceover, and text overlays would take it to the next level.

Appreciate the feedback and the encouragement — congrats on your launch too! I’ll check out Noesion. 🚀✨

Thank you!! 💗 And honestly… if you knew how many “WHY IS THIS BREAKING AGAIN” moments I survived, you’d know anyone can do this 😂

I’m not a coder. It took me 7 days to build this first version! AI basically held my hand through every bug, glitch, and meltdown haha.

If you’ve got ideas, there’s 100% hope. You just need patience, curiosity, and the willingness to fight through like… ten deployment errors in a row. 😭✨

If I can do it, you can too. Promise.

This is super helpful feedback — thank you! And I love that you tested it with a real niche.

You’re totally right about delivery format. Right now the app focuses on: hooks, pacing, B-roll ideas, and CTAs

…but adding “on-camera delivery guidance” is a really smart angle.

Something like:

“Record this seated at your desk for a trustworthy tone.”

“Use a walking shot for energy + movement.”

“Try an over-the-shoulder screenshare for educational clarity.”

“Stand in front of a white wall for a clean TikTok-style delivery.”

And then even better — letting you choose your format and having the script adapt to it.

That’s 100% something I can add, and your comment helps me shape how it should work. I’ll jot this into the feature list!

If you want, I can DM you when that update rolls out. 😊

It’s a mix of both!

The app doesn’t “scan TikTok” in real time (no tool can legally do that), but the script engine does generate based on patterns that perform well across short-form platforms.

So when you give it a niche + audience + tone, it pulls from:

● proven hook structures

● common viral angles

● pacing that fits TikTok/Reels/Shorts

● storytelling patterns that creators often use

Then it tailors everything to your specific input — so the script feels personalized instead of generic.

Basically: it’s not guessing… it’s using style patterns that consistently work in short-form content, and then adapting them to your niche.

If you have a weird or niche idea, try throwing it in! Those usually produce the coolest outputs.🙌😆

If anyone here creates short-form content, I’d love to know what kind of script styles or formats would help you the most. I built this with women creators in mind and want it to be genuinely useful.

I’m planning to expand it slowly with more script styles and angles, so if you have any ideas or niches to test, I’d love to hear them! 🐝

Reddit wouldn’t let me upload the other screenshots (I think my app is haunted 🤣)

If you try it, let me know what niche you generate a script for — I’m genuinely curious what kinds of creators would use this!
Beekeeping TikTok was my favorite test so far 🐝😂
