I've been thinking to try some color version for my agency website for a while so thought maybe I should utilize the website building learning for this particular use case. I do not have any brand guidelines so I took inspiration from a Framer template and asked Claude to build the brand guidelines just for testing this whole thing. I then gave instructions to Claude code to revamp my agency website using the given brand guidelines. Later on, after reiterating with it a couple of times, I scraped the content of my website and asked it to update the copy as well. I think I did a pretty decent job and even though I'd still like to keep my original version for now, I think it was a really great session with Claude building this site using inspiration from other websites and especially the screenshot loop. How much time it saves is insane! Looking forward to day 6 now. (1st - Original Site (https://acceliyo.com/)) (2nd - Revamped Version (https://acceliyo-claude-test-version.vercel.app/))

This is something most freelancers go through, especially in the early days. A project comes in. The core tool is familiar, maybe Make.com, maybe n8n, maybe something else. But the client's stack includes a platform they've never touched. Poor docs, barely any community support. They take it on anyway because the money is there and they want to prove they can deliver. And the problems that follow are sneaky, because they don't look like mistakes at first. They look like hustle. → Discovery risk. They didn't know what they didn't know. The tool behaves differently than expected, edge cases surface mid-build, and they're making changes on the fly. This isn't the client moving the goalposts. This is the freelancer underestimating complexity because the tool was unfamiliar. But from the outside, it looks like poor planning. → Pricing mismatch. They quoted it as a straightforward build because they're already an expert in the main automation tool. But the unfamiliar pieces eat up hours that were never accounted for. Now they're either eating the cost quietly or having an uncomfortable renegotiation conversation that chips away at trust. → Bleeding timeline. They're learning as they go. Delivery slips. The client starts checking in more often. Confidence drops. And the worst part is they can't explain why it's taking long without admitting they're learning on the client's dime. → Opportunity cost. This is the one nobody talks about. While they're spending weeks buried in a poorly documented platform for one client, they could have delivered two or three projects confidently in their comfort zone. They didn't just underprice one project. They gave up the revenue from the projects they didn't take. Now, there's a real counterargument. Early on, taking unfamiliar-stack projects IS how freelancers build range. Getting paid to learn has real value. But this strategy has diminishing returns. At some point, the learning premium stops justifying the delivery risk.

Built Newsletter Automation 1. Pretty fast build as compared to building via n8n 2. So much easier to make edits 3. CC'd to my partner (proud moment ;)) 4. Next step - production deployment Looking forward to completing Day 2. Thanks Nate for putting this together!

So from the 7-day AIS challenge, I finally realized the mindset you need to set up your AI Assistants and decided to set up your different systems based on different use case. Currently I have set up two AI Assistants (both are WIP of course): 1. one for my personal stuff (Antra AI) 2. one for my business stuff (Neeti AI) Honestly did not know any other name that would fit for personal one, haha. It is going to reflect how I think, my values etc. I will be more active here from now on, and would love to share daily learnings from building my business, setting up AI Workflows and working in efficient manner in general. If that sounds interesting, follow along!

Hey everyone! Sharing something I use every single day when working with AI. Most people don't know that AI responds to shortcut commands — you don't need to write a whole paragraph. One word changes everything. Here are 5 that actually work: ELI5: [topic] — AI explains it like you're 5. Perfect when you're learning something totally new. Zero jargon. TLDR: [paste text] — Drops a 2000-word article down to 5 key points in seconds. I use this every morning for news. JARGONIZE: [your text] — Turns simple writing into something that sounds polished and professional. Great for LinkedIn or emails. HUMANIZE: [AI text] — The opposite. Strips out the robotic tone and makes it sound like a real person wrote it. FEYNMAN: [topic] — AI teaches you step by step until you can explain it back to someone else. This one actually makes stuff stick. Bonus: You can combine them. Try → ELI5 the TLDR of [paste article]. You get a 3-line summary a 5-year-old can follow. The PDF guide is in the post as well. Questions :-> 1.Try one today and drop below what you used it for ? 2. Any specific point you're struggling with Claude or any ai tool to solve?
