I just found the infinite virality glitch. MakeUGC V.2 (Sora2 Pro, Veo3.1, Kling) is letting brands generate 100+ platform-ready UGC ads per day — fully automated. → No editors → No actors → No filming → Just prompts and instant output And when you connect it to the new AI agents, the whole thing runs like a self-managing ad factory. Here’s what happens: • AI agents research trends and viral patterns • They brief MakeUGC V.2 automatically • Sora2 Pro builds cinematic storylines • Veo3.1 and Kling handle pacing and realism • Finished videos are exported and scheduled instantly It’s like having a 24/7 creative team that never sleeps, generating, testing, and posting nonstop. I made a full step-by-step guide so you can clone the exact setup. RT + comment “V2” and I’ll send it over. (follow for dm)

280k a month in sales from ai videos built off one product prompt no cameras no actors no editors ai creates dozens of clips that post automatically on tiktok and instagram each video hits a different angle — authority, curiosity, emotion — all driving to one product traffic runs 24/7 sales come in daily i made a short guide showing how the system works rt + comment "ads" and i’ll send it (must follow for dm)

Building trytimeout.com and have been purely relying on ASO to get traffic which hasn’t been amazing. This group giving me the kick to properly start onto socials. Roast me!

Most apps fail from bad pricing. We analyzed $1.9B in revenue across 11,000+ apps to create the formula for how to price your app in every country. - Weekly, monthly, and annual prices by country - Highest and lowest price ranges Repost + follow and I’ll DM it to you free.

Most indie devs are stuck at $100 MRR. We studied over 12,000 apps and built a free roadmap to help you cross $1,000 MRR. Repost and comment “ebook” and I’ll DM it to you for free

iOS devs: what do you use to track a funnel from App Store page view through to onboarding steps and onto in app subscription purchase? Currently using GA for tracking onboarding steps, RevenueCat for purchases and then just eyeballing App Store analytics for page views. #iosdev

Does anyone know of a mailing list or just old school bulletin board of companies that VC firms are investing in? Not just one VC, but something that aggregates a bunch of the big ones together? #VentureCapital #startup

Frequently forget that iOS has some incredible AR capabilities and then stumble across stuff like this and just get lost in documentation thinking about use cases, but never coming up with anything #iOSDev developer.apple.com/document… developer.apple.com/document…

Tried out Swift Data after seeing a lot saying it’s not production ready & I get it. The strong ties to SwiftUI Views makes it difficult to separate your business logic. And when you go to interact with it in a view model you end up doing a lot of unnecessary leg work #iOSDev

I’ll be interested to see people’s migration stories to Swift 6. While it enforces a lot of safety, it’s definitely a decent shift in thinking that results in some decent refactors #iOSDev

Going through the Screen Time videos from Apple, it’s easy to think you need all three of Family Controls, Managed Settings and Device Activity. You likely don’t, but it takes some digging to find what fits your use case #BuildInPublic
