Prototyping an AI agent

Going from zero to product and sharing the lessons learned along the way on my journey to 20K MRR 🤞

This week I’ve been busy experimenting with AI agents.

Specifically, I built a proof of concept that lets me index the content of a website and, through a chat interface connected to an agent, ask questions about that site’s content.

This isn’t a new idea, there are already services out there that offer similar functionality.

But as I’ve been exploring different product ideas, I thought it was worth giving this one a shot.

Over the coming days, I’ll keep testing a few use cases to better understand whether this could be a viable product to take to market.

If everything goes well, after a small round of market validation I’ll probably move forward with this project and take it from proof of concept to an actual service people can use. And if that happens, contentchat.io will be born.

If the project takes off, the possibilities are endless. Imagine an agent connected to your website with access to your booking system, able to capture sales leads, or even provide order information directly on your ecommerce site.

But everything starts with a small step, so here we go.

I’ll keep you posted.

Do you see this solving a real need for you? If so, I'd love to collaborate. Please get in touch!
