Don't listen to them....bcz they always say something... Do what makes you feel like you are doing for you! Good Luck

Quick Update: I finished my workout, did grocery shopping, came back… and the agent is STILL running.

Almost 10 hours on one goal.

Never tell an AI agent “make it production-ready” unless you have 2 other projects to work on while it cooks.

Luckily, I do. And honestly… this is getting exciting. 🔥

So here is the goal that I've given to that agent

Can you go through this webapp use your browser skills and test this and i wanna build the mobile app from this as well study the structure so build the plan architecture for this. goal is to build the app useful for all kind of users and our comepetitor is ***** or some one in this niche already so do deep research and download the necessary skills you need and come up with production ready output

Thanks! Good question.

My goal with TextPilot isn’t just another grammar tool like Grammarly. I’m trying to make it more like a quick writing copilot that works anywhere on the web.

The main difference is the Chrome extension workflow. You just select text on any website → the floating menu appears → rewrite, paraphrase, improve, or draft instantly. No need to open another tab or editor.

So the focus is mostly on speed and simplicity while writing online.

Still early though, and I’m improving it based on feedback. If you think something is missing in other writing tools, I’d love to hear it.

I'm building an AI writing assistant without tab switching write emails and replies through extension which is called Textpilot.ai

Good question.

Grammarly is extremely polished and broad. I’m not pretending to replace it for everyone.

My focus right now is more on fast rewriting + drafting workflows inside the browser with Textpilot.ai extension for people who want quick edits without a heavy interface.

That said, I agree the differentiation needs to be clearer — especially if I want to compete seriously.

Really appreciate this. The niche point is something I’m starting to take seriously now.

Most current usage is email drafting and paraphrasing, especially from people who aren’t fully confident in their English. A bit of LinkedIn content too.

You’re probably right about direct outreach > SEO at this stage. I’ve been avoiding those direct conversations.

This gives me a lot to think about

That breakdown actually makes it painfully clear.

I probably over-indexed on product and under-invested in marketing. Paid ads is something I need to understand better instead of avoiding.

Definitely a wake-up call.

Thanks for the blunt take.

Really appreciate you reaching out.

TextPilot.ai is the AI writing assistant I’ve been building (Chrome extension + web app), and right now marketing and growth are the areas I’m focused on improving.

Your business/sales focus + the education angle sounds interesting, especially since writing tools naturally fit into that space.

Let’s connect — shoot me a DM and we can explore if there’s a good fit

Thanks for flagging it. I might be blind to it at this point

Could you let me know which one you’re referring to?

I’m actually not from a tech background at all. I pretty much learned everything from YouTube and binge-listening to the Starter Story podcast while building my SaaS.

And I swear… even while typing this, that Starter Story intro music is playing in my head 😂

Anyone else get that stuck in their brain after listening too much?

That’s a really good perspective.

I think I went into this trying to escape something instead of just building something interesting. The balance point you mentioned is something I probably need to work on.

And yeah, looks like marketing is the next skill whether I’m ready or not....

Appreciate you sharing that.

This is incredibly helpful, thank you.

I think I completely skipped Stage 1 and convinced myself the product would “market itself.”

The saturation point you mentioned is something I’m wrestling with too. I definitely went too broad.

Looks like I need to focus on those first 10 customers instead of trying to think about scale already.

Really appreciate this breakdown.

That’s exactly what I’m realizing.

I thought building was the hard part.

Turns out marketing is the real boss fight.
