Show HN: I cloned a YC funded app in a day as an MVP

https://ai-tutor.mvpwrappers.com/
3•eashish93•4h ago
I saw this app youlearn.ai on YC and thought of building it. They are claiming to have 1M+ users with just one feature which is to convert your learning material into summaries, quizzes etc.

I gave this a shot and cloned almost most of the features in just 9+ hours of continous vibe coding (with 20% manual though). Now I'm selling this on mvp marketplace. Might probably open source it in future or give it free.

Very cool. Meta thought is to monitor the YC portfolio for what is and isn't getting traction and enable rapidly vibe coding clones, brute forcing towards success (there was an EU accelerator/umbrella group that did something similar pre Gen AI, but the name escapes me). "Platform of generators" sort of thing. Regardless, well done!

It's honestly a really good idea in general, but probably fails if you don't execute even faster than incumbents in new markets. Another company in Brazil does this I think.

Companies, even startups, despite "we listen to users" actually move very slowly, and the gap between what is said and what is possible and what is better than currently available (like, in an app) is huge.

Yeah that's what I'm testing right now with mvpwrappers.com. If any of the mvp gain traction (not behind a paywall right now and demo is free), I'll build the bigger version of that. With vibe-coding and more than 8 years of experience in development I can literally clone any YC app as an MVP in within a week.

What do y'all think – weeknd project
