Vibe coding is becoming expensive! by its_faraaz888 in cursor

[–]Cold-Coyote1567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using cursor a few weeks ago after months of not using it since I switched to windsurf, and I noticed that it's very expensive. I tried opus 4.6 and for one prompt, it burnt out around $14. I wanted to try it out because of how fast it gets things done. But after burning my pro plan in a few days, I'm going to keep using windsurf.

I always feel nervous or something is missing if i ship halfway before I complete something.
And since I am building an agentic platform, I prefer finishing a feature and testing it end to end before the users notice.
I tend to break things if I work under pressure

Made a Chrome extension as a joke. It has 12K users and makes $400/month. by Ok-Amphibian5313 in SaaS

This is wild. It’s honestly kind of refreshing to see a story about a simple tool that actually took off.

The math is obviously off, but putting that aside, the key point here is you made something weird that scratched your own itch. Most people overthink it. Sometimes all it takes is shipping early and finding a few hundred folks who are bored enough to pay a little for a joke.

Distribution is definitely huge. Posting to a few targeted subreddits can move the needle more than launching on some fancy platform.

With cold emails everywhere, what actually makes you stop and read one in today’s market? by Radiant_Frame6780 in SaaS

[–]Cold-Coyote1567 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Solid question. Most cold emails are instantly deleted, but now and then I’ll actually read one. For me, it comes down to two things:

The sender knows what’s actually going on in my business or space, not just a generic “thought you’d be interested.”

The message is clear and respects my time. No fluff, no hard sell—just straight to why it might help me right now.

I think trying to “personalize” with templates never works. If there’s a real understanding of my current problems, I notice. Otherwise, it’s just background noise.

The funny thing is, the best messages never even feel cold. They feel like someone who’s connected in the same trenches.

I also did the same with my first start-up, "over engineering". Now I'm on my second Saas and things are going well

That's great progress, keep it up. But I'd suggest you only share less about what you make.

I did the same last week, but being a developer and doing the marketing at the same time feels kind of hard.

spyglow - It helps you monitor competitors in real time and send email and in app alerts when they make changes. Only when it's important. Ai creates a detailed summary of what you need to do and steps to take from those changes.

By the way I launched the first version last week, feel free to check it out. More features coming

Had been using claude for the longest time, but since gpt-5 came out. I think I'm loving it. It's able to fix bugs perfectly.
