Various GenAI experiments

his goal seems to use lots of GenAI to create a brand/audience in any niche he can find.

A little less than a year ago, I launched Zenitizer, a clutter-free meditation timer designed and optimized for Apple platforms: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/meditation-timer-zenitizer/id6...

Motivation: As a long-time meditator myself, I felt like I had outgrown guided meditations but still wanted a tool that’d support me in returning my focus with regular interval bells and - on occasion - pleasant background sounds (although I personally prefer to sit in silence) as well as show me daily goals and streaks to stay motivated.

As somewhat of an Apple nerd, I wanted this tool to be well integrated (Shortcuts, Widgets, Apple Health, etc…) and look and feel right at home on Apple devices (especially the Watch, which I primarily use for mediation tracking).

It’s the classic “scratch your own itch” story to be honest. Sounds cliche, but it’s a great source of intrinsic motivation! Seeing others use my app on a regular basis and valuing it for the very same reasons I started building it is a wonderful feeling.

Challenges and Hurdles: One challenge is certainly learning to prioritize new features and other work correctly and estimating the work needed. The latter is particularly tricky when working with new frameworks and technologies and the best way to overcome this challenge is to not be to hard on myself and learn to plan with more slack than anticipated :)

I am building Wreken - AI adapter for integrations, Wreken makes integrating API/SDK effortless for developers. I have been working on this for about an year now with my co-founder. We are in pvt beta phase and working with 10 design partners. https://www.wreken.com/

Newsletter with short case studies on content that has gone viral on TikTok https://tiktokexamples.com

There wasn't any other newsletter like it, and I figured it would be useful for creators on the platform who are lookikg for new content ideas.

I'm thinking of shutting it down though. Haven't been able to achieve the growth targets I set myself, and I don't want to run it just as a hobby.
