Google just patented something that could seriously reshape the internet.

Under patent US12536233B1, Google can evaluate your landing page and, if it decides it’s “not good enough,” generate its own AI version of it and show that to users directly inside search results. Not send them to your site.

Not just summarize it.

Actually replace the experience with an AI-built page.

The wild part? It can personalize that version to each user price-sensitive shoppers might see one version, brand-loyal customers another. And the patent covers both ads and organic search, starting with Shopping.

So imagine ranking #1 for a keyword, a user clicking your result… and instead of landing on your site, they’re shown Google’s AI-rendered version of it. You may still get the attribution, but you lose control of the message, layout, and conversion path.

Search engines used to index the web. Then they started answering it.

Now they might start recreating it.

If the click becomes optional, the entire traffic economy changes.

You know those TikToks and YouTube Shorts with some random parkour or Minecraft gameplay in the background, and an AI voice reading a dramatic story? A few months ago, I fell down that rabbit hole and thought, "Hey, I could do that."

So I tried making a few.

The first one was fun. The second one was okay. By the tenth time I had to copy-paste a post, clean up the formatting, generate a voiceover, find some background footage, and then painstakingly sync the subtitles... it got old. Really old.

The process was always a grind, and the bottlenecks were always the same:

- Cleaning up the original post to make it work as a script.

- Manually timing the subtitles to match the narration's pacing.

- Finding background video that wasn't distractingly bad.

- Making the whole thing feel "native" to short-form video.

Since I'm more of a coder than a video editor, my brain went straight to one place: "Why don't I just automate this whole damn thing?"

So, that's what I did. I started building a simple tool that:

Rewrites the story into a script that’s paced for a short video.

Generates an AI voiceover.

Adds automatically synced captions.

Slaps it all on top of some looping, "viral-style" background video.

Basically, it turns a URL into a ready-to-post faceless video. What started as a personal script has now become a simple web tool.

It's still a work-in-progress, and I'm constantly tinkering. The next big challenges are:

- Better Hooks: How do you actually get someone to stop scrolling in the first 3 seconds?

- Better Voices: Making the AI voices sound less... well, AI.

- Smarter Subtitles: It's not just about syncing; it's about emphasizing the right words at the right time.

- More Variety: What are the options beyond Minecraft parkour? (Seriously, I need ideas!)

This has been a surprisingly fun challenge, especially figuring out the async media processing and making the rendering stable.

If there's anyone else here building tools for creators or in the short-form video space, I'd love to connect and trade notes.

And of course, I'd love to get your feedback. If you were to use a tool like this, what's the #1 feature you feel is missing from the current landscape?

Thanks for reading!

Hello everyone! With the rise of vibe coding, many people are now building their own software, apps and websites instead of paying for subscription, or hire developers to build it. I had seen many people preferring to use AI to create a website then paying devs hundreds of dollars just to create a website. 

However, as all of us know, generic AI is just generic, with many fault and issues, including the infamous purple design, gradient & glowing effects, as well as many info is inaccurate. Most vibe coders just ignored this, since they don’t know how to fix it. 

Due to these, many people are getting afraid that they will be replaced by AI anytime now, since it can be used to develop anything just to replace them, and corporation will prefer to pay a $20 a month for AI that do not complain, do not sleep, over thousands for a single employees. 

But with these, I believe it is time for a change, instead of we developing software, websites, we develop the rules, agent skills, MCP to create a certain stuff, and sell these instead, so anyone interested can use this to create their own product, to their likings. As an example, we can create agent skills & MCP to let users create a SaaS for productivity tools, so instead of generic tools, users can produce high quality tools for their internal use. We can also create databases of knowledges, related to a topic, so vibe coded websites can have somewhere to go for info. 

I am not here to sell a service or a course, I want to hear the feedback of others, regarding this topic.

Hi all, I'd always wanted a notes app that works from my lockscreen so I wouldn't have to always unlock my phone to do any notes-related stuff. It was annoying. I couldn't find an app that works like that, and since I'm a web dev guy, I couldn't do anything about it for the longest time. Then one day I decided to pick up Android dev and build it myself. And after a 7 months lonely journey, I got the app I'd wish existed! Here it is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kyw.joonote

Let me know what you think!

Trying a new layout on Ashdeck to make deepwork sessions feel more intentional.

Not sure if it’s too minimal or just right.

If you enjoy focused workflows, I’d love your thoughts.

Hey everyone,

I just joined Huzzler for the first time.

Still figuring things out, but it seems fun so far.

Today’s Ashdeck update removes a bunch of tiny distractions I kept ignoring.

Funny how deleting things often creates more value than adding new ones.

Feels cleaner already.

Two down, two to go. Goal is 4 extensions by end of year.

What I'm excited about: The side panel approach. It's so much better than popup extensions - stays open while you browse, doesn't block your view, and you can reference it across multiple tabs. Honestly think more developers should be building with the side panel API.

SEO Copilot gives instant on-page SEO analysis - meta tags, headings, links, images, structured data, the whole package. Built it because I was tired of juggling multiple tools for basic audits.

Next two extensions in the works. Let's see if I can hit that 4/4 target. 💪

When you finally hit 1,000 users... and 998 of them are on the free plan.

Does anyone else lose entire afternoons to “accidental research” or “just checking something real quick.

I’m really curious, what’s one small thing that actually helps you stay focused or get back on track when your brain is all over the place?

Recently got into learning how to build a browser extension and came across WXT, a modern framework that a few creators recommended. I’ve been playing around with it for the past few days and it’s looking pretty solid so far.

What really stood out to me is how smooth the developer experience is. It’s built on top of Vite, supports TypeScript out of the box, and even hot-reloads your background and content scripts while you’re developing. The documentation is clear and well-structured, which made it easy to get something running quickly.

I’ll be shipping something interesting with it in the coming week. If you’re curious, check it out here (🙌highly recommended): https://wxt.dev/

How to find business ideas

Sooo… my projects have slowed down a bit, sold a few things, and now I’m hunting for new ideas. I was wondering how to find them, and I came up with a plan!

1️⃣ Go to Flippa

• Filter for sites making $10K+/month
• Pick a product idea that already has demand
• Check reviews
• Build something with better features

2️⃣ Go to Upwork

• Browse top gigs 💼
• See what people are actually paying for 💰
• Spot problems clients complain about 📝
• Build a solution that’s faster, cheaper, or just better 🚀

Haven’t found anything for me yet, but the method is super simple and maybe it’ll open someone’s eyes 👀

Been diving deep into newsletter platform pricing while building NewsletterStack, and honestly, the differences are wild.

Here's something I learned: if you're just starting out, Substack is genuinely the best choice. Why? It's completely free until you start charging subscribers. No upfront costs, no subscriber limits. You can build your audience without worrying about monthly fees.

But here's where it gets interesting. Once you hit around 5k-10k subscribers, the math changes completely. A platform that seems "cheap" at 1k subscribers might cost you hundreds more per month at scale.

And cost per subscriber isn't even the full picture. You need to consider:

• Email deliverability features
• Monetization options (paid subscriptions, ads, sponsorships, and more)
• Design flexibility and customization
• Analytics and growth tools
• Migration difficulty if you want to switch later (⚠️super important!!)

That's why I built a Newsletter Cost Calculator for NewsletterStack. Just enter your audience size and see real pricing across Beehiiv, Substack, Kit, Ghost, Buttondown, and more popular platforms, all in one place. Everything's up to date so you can actually compare apples to apples.

#BuildinPublic #NewsletterStack

I spent the last few weeks building NewsletterStack – a curated directory where newsletter creators can discover the actual tech stacks behind successful newsletters. Not just tools, but real growth strategies, subscriber counts, and what actually works.

Just launched today 🚀

It's still early (plenty more newsletter case studies coming), but I'm excited to finally get it out there. If you're building a newsletter or thinking about starting one, hope this helps you find the right stack.

Would love your feedback. Some exciting features rolling out soon.

Finally found a brand name and domain I love.

But now every social handle I need is taken, even variations with .com, most often by inactive accounts with 1–2 followers and zero posts.

It’s frustrating how this can block brand consistency before even building your product.

Has anyone here actually managed to take over an inactive handle?

Did support help, or did you have to negotiate directly?

Would love to hear what worked for you.

this is so true

////////////////////////////////////////////////////

(i've literally seen it across all founders that i worked with)

- lack of product demand. being first to market is often a wrong idea; targeting a non-existent niche is a critical mistake.  

- building features without speaking with customers.  

- not enough focus on sales. sales should begin from the day the mvp is ready.

- not building good relationships with employees. leading by fear alienates talented employees who have options.  

- promising equity but not putting it on paper makes employees hesitant to stay.  

- building with an exit strategy in mind, especially revolving around a single big business acquisition, is risky.  

- hiring interns rarely makes sense for ambitious startups.  

- following the hype instead of focusing on monetization.

- raising capital too fast, often before achieving traction or product-market fit (pmf).  

- focusing on unnecessary work at an early stage, such as adding analytics or excessive features.  

- not being fast enough: long meetings, unnecessary travel, excessive days off, inefficient capital allocation, wrong hires, etc.

- founder-market fit isn’t mandatory but accelerates progress significantly when present.  

- using buzzwords in startup features instead of providing clear value.  

- not iterating enough based on user feedback.  

- not discussing numbers (user retention rate, churn rate, revenue, profits, capital allocation, etc.) regularly

- failing to track essential kpis like ltv (lifetime value) and cac (customer acquisition cost).  

- not being transparent about pricing on the landing page; making customers click ‘request demo’ can deter them.  

- burning capital too quickly without considering the runway.

- overspending on marketing, product development, or hiring without a clear roi plan.

I don’t like reading books. Not novels, not even business books.

But I still want the knowledge inside them.

What if there was a way to get the core ideas of any book straight into your head — in minutes, in a style you enjoy (chat, VN, or short video)?

Would you use it? 👀

Hey folks,

I’m currently building out revenue attribution in my analytics tool. Right now I’m starting with Stripe, since that’s the most common one.

What other payment providers do you use to run your online business?

Any you wish had better integrations for analytics / attribution?

Would love to make sure I’m covering the main ones people actually rely on.

Like the title says, for those of you who have multiple side projects live at the same time.

How do you balance your time between each? especially if you have a full time job in addition to.

Hey everyone,

Today I’d like to share one of my projects with you: willtheyconvert.com. I actually built it a while ago, but it’s still one of my favorite little tools.

The idea is simple: it helps you test if people would actually pay for your subscription or product. You just generate a “Buy” button, and when someone clicks it and starts entering their details, you can show them a message that the app is still in progress (don’t worry – no card data is collected or saved).

Here’s a quick demo: https://willtheyconvert.com/demos#payment

This way, you don’t need to build a full product, set up Stripe, webhooks, or a whole app that maybe no one would ever use. Instead, you can just launch a landing page and promote it as if the product already exists. You’ll avoid the usual “Looks great!” or “Awesome idea!” comments that sometimes end up meaning… nobody was ever ready to buy. With this tool, you can see if people actually click “buy” in the first place.

You can also collect emails from those who clicked, so once the product is ready, you can reach out directly.

When testing this app myself, I experimented with different payment models:

• First I tried a monthly subscription (no trial). It sold 2–3 copies right after launch, and then nothing.
• Then I switched to a lifetime deal – sales picked up.
• I got greedy and changed it to an annual subscription (with a 3-day trial) – sales dropped again.
• A couple of weeks ago I switched back to lifetime only, removed the trial completely – sales started moving again.

For apps like this, I really think the lifetime model works best, and ironically it seems to convert better.

Hope you found this interesting and as always, keep shipping 🚀🔥

Hello Huzzler, nice to meet you all! 

I’m the CEO and co-founder of TTP.TODAY, a cyber threat intelligence provider based in the UK.  We are a self-funded operation, rejecting investor interest as we are very passionate about growing the service and company ourselves,

Collectively, our team has over 15 years of experience across cybersecurity fields, including malware research, attack analysis, OSCP-certified penetration testing, and darknet intelligence operations.

We also run a live darknet leak checker at https://leak-check.net, where you can freely see what data sources are available - or sign up for full domain and data access.  

Eight months ago, we launched LeaksAPI, a darknet data checker that provides easy access to a wealth of data (over 1,300 leaked databases and 400 million malware logs) sourced from darknet data brokers and private intelligence networks.  

Today, we support 400+ users and handle over 1 million requests per day, served through geographically distributed AWS load-balancing.  

I’m excited to connect with other founders here. I also wanted to share my top two lessons from the past eight months for anyone on the same journey:  

--- 

1. Verify your value proposition with real users  

Believe in yourself, but be patient - real value sells itself, even if slowly.  

KEEP COSTS LOW UNTIL PEOPLE PAY REAL $. KEEP. COSTS. LOW.

Find a real user to demo their need, even if it’s free. Too many people spend months building an app nobody wants. It should be the opposite: start with the need.  

Our first and only huge client fell through while we were waiting for the invoice to be paid - they had a security breach and froze all new supplier onboarding.

It was disappointing and scary.

After three months of work, bills had to be paid and we were excited to cross the finish line before it all fell through, but we realized they weren’t the only fish in the sea.

We found new traffic sources and clients over time.

Their feedback was still extremely valuable in helping us understand real-world requirements.  Their loss didn't change a thing.

--- 

2. 10% of users will cause 90% of the problems/work - respect yourself and your boundaries  

This includes people begging for discounts, extra features, or credits. Don’t be afraid to set minimum price points and turn down business where appropriate.  

Early on, we had a client sending malformed API requests that ruined our 100% error score.

They ignored three contact attempts across multiple methods, so we blocked their access for the sake of service quality.

This risked losing a $99/month customer, but it was worth it for our long-term reputation. After blocking, they finally reached out and we resolved their issue and saved our reputation score.  

--- 

Thanks if you made it this far!

If you’d like a free trial of the API, drop a comment below and we’ll set it up.  

You can now send DMs to each other and talk in a group chat, all powered by Telegram.

To get started: set your Telegram username in your profile and a "message" button will appear on your public profile. You'll also show up in the chat window in the bottom right.

Join the group chat to network, talk and connect with the brightest founders ✨: t.me/huzzler_founders

For those that publish release notes for their projects. 

What does your process look like? 

What tools are you using? 

What are some things that would make this process easier for you? 

Context: Thinking about building something for myself to solve for this but and want to know how others are handling this to better inform what I end up landing on to build. 

Any input is appreciated 🙏
