7 days. 2 people. 160 hrs.

That was the effort @elishaterada and I put into @bentossell’s Ben’s Bites AI Hackathon!

So, what did we build?

brancher.ai (@brancherdotai)
The fastest most accessible way to leverage & connect AI models to build apps without code.

🧵👇
We used ChatGPT for the name ideation: chatgpt-static.s3.amazonaws.com/chats/qwwy8h3s…

We came up with “brancher”:
(French) To connect. To Plug.
(English) One who shows growth in various directions. Part of a larger whole, like branches in a tree.

The .ai extension was available so we scooped it up!
Chose our tech & tool stack for MVP:

Comms: @SlackHQ & @Zoom
Design: @figma
Interactions: @principleapp
Tasks: @NotionHQ
Landing page: @framer

App Build: @reactjs, #nextjs, @nodejs, @PostgreSQL w/ @auth0, @googleanalytics, @googlefonts

Support & Requests: @typeform & @cannyHQ
Created slick logos, social accounts (@brancherdotai), & #opengraph images for social sharing.
Diagrammed the (future) monetization strategy using #FigJam

figma.com/file/6xK7CGCJo…
Identified our first list of #GenerativeAI models to target for integrations:

MVP:
@OpenAI #GPT3
@OpenAI #DALLE2

Post Hackathon:
@StabilityAI, #OpenJourney, #realsesrgan, #gfpgan via @huggingface
#UberDuck
@OpenAI #Whisperv2
@craiyonAI

Eventually:
#ChatGPT
@midjourney
Created a product roadmap:
brancher.ai/roadmap

My fav upcoming feature?
TEXT-TO-APP

You would type:
"Build me an app that takes user’s topic of choice and turns into a tweet with an accompanying image.

…and brancher.ai would turn it into an app for you 🤯🤩
What we got done for the MVP:
- User Accounts & SSO
- Marketing pages: landing, contact, roadmap, updates, feature requests
- Apps pages: My Apps, Template Library, App Builder, Creator’s app landing page
- Integrations: GPT-3, DALL-E 2
- Multi-flow support per app
Needless to say, it was HARD work, but amazing work. @elishaterada was the incredible dev & strategist getting things done 💪 with me behind the scenes.

SOOooo happy @bentossell got us motivated to finally come together to build a dream platform like brancher.ai 👏
brancher.ai is free to use up to 500 credits (you can request more, as needed)

Our ultimate goal is to make AI accessible to the masses and promote harmony between humans and AI.

We believe @brancherdotai is getting us one step closer to that goal!
