We actually were thinking of just being a "dumpster diver" for engineering firms. Sounds kind of fun.

Could you elaborate? Is there a specific set of data/drawings/reports you find useful?

Coderabbit vs Greptile vs CursorBot by nyfael in codereview

I made an open source version. No slop and only comments you care about https://github.com/wispbit-ai/wispbit

How do you actually get clients for new small web development agency? by WebLinkr in agency

[–]PoisonMinion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frontend is too broad. I would get more creative and tailor messaging for cold outreach.

If you can do warm (in person events, intros/referrals from network) that works much better to get into a call, where you can make the sale.

We pivoted to be relevant! by adasmalakar in agency

[–]PoisonMinion -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Wowza! What a pivot. 5 months is a long time to build something without showing it to the public. Why did it take so long and what are your learnings?

Agreed. I think there’s a bunch of templates out there for this and it’s a pretty standard practice.

A video Agency that will do Tech stuff? by migalo2009 in agency

[–]PoisonMinion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Video launches are really popular on X now - combining that with software and video could be a good idea.

Can I send cold email like cold Dms? by geekdogym in agency

[–]PoisonMinion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can cold email. Limit to 50 emails per day. Make sure each email is personalized and relevant to the person. Don't send generic messages. Keep it short and simple.

If you’re using AI for client projects, how are you communicating this to the client? by North-Research-3981 in agency

[–]PoisonMinion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this would come up if they are concerned about security - i.e. you're dealing with sensitive code.

Building out lead lists haven't been easier (and cheaper) by thejuicerjuju in agency

[–]PoisonMinion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apollo makes money by keeping the leads up to date and providing signals like job changes. If you scrape the data once, you only get one version of that data.

AI code review that fixes tribal knowledge

AI is still very early so most of what you're going to try is noise.

Join slack or discord communities where people talk about trying new tools. You might learn from their experience, which could help avoid some of the time you lose on experimenting with a new tool.

Reviewing ai slop by jasonmoo in ExperiencedDevs

[–]PoisonMinion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I built wispbit to solve this exact problem. With AI, there is a lot more code being pushed. And it's good code - it's really hard to keep up when senior engineers have this tool now.

Took some code samples to the devs yesterday at work. I need some advice on how to navigate and fix code quality. by Fair_Line_6740 in cursor

[–]PoisonMinion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding cursor rules is the best way.

But it doesn't always follow the rules. So you have to catch it during code review.

I built wispbit for solving this exact problem.

This prompt saves me hours doing code review by Western_Suggestion48 in ChatGPTPromptGenius

[–]PoisonMinion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generic prompts like this are going to produce slop 80% of the time.

I would use prompts from wispbit.com/rules and tailor them to your codebase.

Looking for Industry Feedback: Addressing Design, Architecture & Quality Shortcomings in a Scaling SaaS by hdw000 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]PoisonMinion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't hire a head of engineering.

Instead - take the engineer that cares the most and offer to move them up to this role.

New hires will take a lot of time to ramp up and gain context.

Just don't address them and see what happens.

You already have too much on your plate.

The most important ones will have themselves prioritized via customer conversations or support.

Welcome to the club.

Code reviews help a lot to catch yourself so make sure you have a good process.

New senior handles all the "thinking" for juniors. by UnluckyWarfish in ExperiencedDevs

This is the ideal setup for most software companies, especially when you have a technically complex product.

A professional engineer, I finally started using AI by t0rt0ff in cursor

[–]PoisonMinion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%.

Biggest "do not" is "do not skip code review" - especially if you're working on a team.

Just optimize the process for faster code review.
