AI Showdown Pt. 2 | Bolt.new vs Replit vs Same.dev

I recently submitted a head to head comparison of the 3 major AI model providers using Lovable. I tested the same prompt and got interesting results.

Chose to follow up and repeat with Bolt, Replit, and Same.

Long story short -- they perform virtually identical to each other, because they all use Anthropic under the hood.

They all have different base prompts.

Check the full YT video here.

I made an app on Lovable using 1 command

Summary

This last weekend Lovable hosted an impromptu hackathon called the AI Showdown.

I made an entry for the $25K competition.

Its rules are simple:

  • Compare head to head the performance of OpenAI vs Anthropic vs Gemini.

So I decided to create a very simple submission that doubles down as an evaluation for future models and other platforms as well.

Namely, create a 2D Pokémon style game called Kanjemon, where the goal is to capture all 25 Kanji (Japanese scripture characters)

Motivation

I make language learning apps.

I also wanted a very simple comparison.

Results

Honestly, it's possible to 1-shot prompt an amazing MVP on Lovable -- no auth, just pure gameplay.

My personal favorite is Anthropic (better style taste), but OpenAI was incredible too (followed all instructions)

I wrote a lengthier write-up here, where I include the prompts and logic behind the submission.

n8n automation: Create + Post Branded Ads using Veo3

This flow was born out of the success of its predecessor -- a simple n8n automation that invoked the Fal AI API.

I wanted to go deeper in Veo3's capabilities.

I have to say it's great at generating ads.

Check this (Adidas) ad out !

In a nutshell the workflow is divided into three main phases: 

  1. Create Veo3 Video 
  2. Wait for Video Processing 
  3. Post on YouTube 

Check out the full demo here.

Let me know if you build anything -- link it below !

SEO is a constant race

I have been really active on YouTube in the last 2 months.

My niche is mostly automations using nocode tools, specifically n8n.

Yesterday, I got notice that Veo3 is accessible by API.

So I decided to make a video about : Veo3 Video creation using n8n

I posted on YouTube and Medium.

The result ?

Top of the ranks on Google Search for 'n8n veo3 tutorial'

This wouldn't have happened, if I didn't hustle for it.

Keep making.

Create Veo3 videos using n8n

Today I got notice that the Veo3 API is publicly available through fal ai.

So I made a video that walks you through.

It's an impressive model BUT quite expensive. It's ~1$ per video second.

Here's the demo!

A bit about the flow.

How It Works

1. A user submits a video prompt through a form.

2. An AI agent (using OpenRouter's Google Gemini 2.5 Flash model) refines the user's prompt into a detailed "script-to-screen" format suitable for video generation.

3. The refined prompt is sent to the FalAI Veo 3 model via an HTTP request to generate the video.

4. Details of the video request, including the date, the refined prompt, and the request URL, are stored in a Google Sheet.

Setup

To run this workflow, you need to set up credentials in n8n for:

* OpenRouter: Generate API key from your OpenRouter account.

* Fal AI: Generate API key from your FalAI account

* Google Sheets: Uses OAuth 2.0. Connect by authenticating your Google account.

n8n tutorial: Setup a basic WhatsApp agent (from scratch)

Hey guys,

This tutorial walks you through along every step of the way. It's a tedious process, but you can do it.

Reason I made this is because WhatsApp has 1+ Billion users. Lots of clients have asked me to help them with a WhatsApp chatbot.

In summary what I did was:

Sett up the WhatsApp Trigger in n8n

Configure the Facebook/Meta Side

Connect n8n and Setting up the AI

Configure the WhatsApp Send Message Node

Finalize and Test the n8n Workflow

Activate and Live Test the Full System

Here's a full length write up on Medium.

Here's the YT Tutorial.

Made a simple LLM token cost estimator

Given that we use LLM virtually daily, and some of us, have to relay those costs to clients/colleagues, I figured I create a tool for the purpose.

How I made it

  1. Crafted a prompt and fed it into Google Gemini 2.5 Pro Research.
  2. Created a mockup on Gemini.
  3. Revised it using Lovable.
  4. Ported the code into VS Code and integrated it into my project.
  5. Deploy!

Not Rich Yet. But $114 in May (Proof provided)

Hoping this story resonates with beginners out there.

In the last 2+ years, I have been freelancing in full-stack design and development.

Having earned ~$8k in that time span, I’d be lying if I said “no money no problems”.

May of 2025 though brought a change in perspective.

I turned to automation out of necessity — working on an intelligent social media listening tool, which demanded a lot backend development.

So, I decided to learn n8n and create YouTube tutorials along the way.

Creating a brand is a marketing goal for 2025.

(Marketing is harder than coding, right?)

Results?

- $114 in Gumroad revenue with a 4.4% conversion in May

- YT Channel subs went from 42 -> 94

Market validation? Is this marketing channel sustainable ?

Absolutely and here’s why.

  • I get market feedback on what people want.

Save time in lead generation. SEO — specifically Schema Markups (for rich snippets in Google or AI searches).

• Note that the cost of running an agent can be anywhere between $0.007 to $1.5 per run depending on the complexity.

Outreach is more expensive because of NLP tasks, whereas SEO tends to be cheaper.

  • My network and credibility are growing.

As a thank-you to the community, I’m sharing a beginner oriented tutorial on YouTube channel SEO.

It updates the keywords and description to your YouTube channel — to help boost discoverability.

Here’s the flow for the visual folks.

I made an AI Marketing employee

I created an automation for performing marketing outreach using n8n.

My target audience are all the makers who have a digital presence and want to appear on AI searches.

They need to use a schema markup generator tool, but they don't know it yet.

So I made an employee that :

  • fetch the top Product Hunt performers,
  • scrape their website,
  • find target keywords (for Reddit Lead search),
  • Propose a schema markup to improve your search engine optimization
  • Send me a draft
  • I approve (or decline) and then it sends (or reworks it)

Then it checks out for the day.
