I've created a prototype for the front-end of a website inside an AI chatbot
1•5color•3w ago
It took me about 2 hours using a popular AI chatbot to create a decent looking dummy website for an idea for a webapp that I have. Mind you, the idea itself was years in the making, so I am not posting it yet until I am able to do some due diligence. What I would like help with is where do I go from here? I am not capable of creating an MVP by myself, and I am not keen on learning how to program. I also predict that it will be difficult for me to manage the app if it launches as I have a regular job that I do not wish to leave. Basically, I am interested in earning a fair share from my app idea with the front-end prototype and intellectual assets that I have if it becomes a reality and is profitable. Given these conditions, can someone walk me through what my next steps should be and also whether or not I would need to consider using YC services in order to bring my idea to market?

Getting a prototype ready in 2 hours is a great start. My advice for the 'next steps' would be to focus on user validation before worrying too much about scaling. Since you used an AI chatbot for the frontend, try to see if you can wire it up to a simple backend like Supabase or even a serverless setup. It keeps costs low while you're still in the 'regular job' phase you mentioned. Don't worry too much about the IP yet; execution and a solid user base are what YC and investors look for most.
