Note: This post doesn't use AI at all, so there will probably be grammatical mistakes and weird sentences. Isn't that's how blogs used to be written before AI became everyone's editor & english tutor.

Lately I've noticed something weird happening to me.

Whenever I get an idea for an app, no matter how small or random, my first instinct is not to think about it myself.

Instead, I open Claude Code.

I ask questions like:

Is this idea worth building?

What niche should I target?

What are the weaknesses in this idea?

What should I build instead?

What's the fastest path to getting users?

One question turns into another.

Then another.

And before I realize it, I'm in a 100-message conversation where the AI has analyzed the market, identified competitors, suggested features, created a roadmap, and basically decided the entire direction of the product.

All that's left for me to do is execute.

The funny thing is that this feels incredibly productive.

I can move from an idea to a detailed plan within…
