AI Tool Deployment Strategy:
- When deploying AI-based tools, consider serverless options like Vercel or Netlify for easier CI/CD. These platforms offer simple integrations and deployment buttons, making it easier for those who don't code to launch their products.
- For more control over deployment and scaling, consider using services like Render, which offers simpler usage than services like AWS or GCP.
-
Handling API Keys:
When integrating with APIs, especially in Lovable and similar tools, ensure that API keys are handled securely using the platform's secret management or environment variables to avoid exposing them in client-side code or prompts.
-
Dealing with Deployment Issues:
If you encounter issues with DNS settings breaking prompt functionality when using tools like Lovable, consider switching to a tool with more flexible deployment options, or use Cursor to debug and fix underlying issues in the code.

Managing Marketing and Exposure:
Utilize platforms like LinkedIn and YouTube for content marketing, but keep videos short (less than 30 seconds) for better visibility on platforms like LinkedIn.

But, consider adding a trial period before asking for payment.
