I have been obsessed with self driving companies for more than a year now.. tried a LOT of products, none of them met the bar and decided to just build one myself with "claude" in the loop.
Introducing my first experiment: nosugarforkids (dot com) đ ââī¸
> catalog of only healthy snacks for kids (surprisingly this didn't exist)
> you can chat to get recommendations for school, lunches, snack boxes
> built a "tier" list based on the nutrients and what's actually good
On the autonomous side, I have a Claude agent that wakes up once a day to do the following things:
> checks catalog for new additions
> prunes any products that may be dead
> finds new content ideas to help increase reach
> checks dataforSEO and Google Search Console for performance
> writes and edits new pieces that might be useful to help
> keeps quality high, and tries to not introduce slop
> (new) reaches out to publications to get backlinks
Even with ZERO backlinks today and no social presence whatsoever, site has organically grown to ~6k impressions a day and 60 clicks.
Lots of rough edges still, but parents give it a try and tell me if it's helpful!
