Saylify progress update: I have started on the web app and so far it is going quite well. There is summary, translation, summary of the translation and similar stuff. Everything is cached and wired th…
I crap-coded, sorry, vibe-coded – that is what they call it now. As an experiment to see whether a top Codex-like model can build something complete and working on top of an existing codebase, I decid…
A mini update on Fullyst: Recently I tightened the limits on AI spam detection, added chat notifications when the limit is reached, and even introduced a way to gift a plan with higher limits to your …
About my 'Telegram mindset': For a long time my main project was Fullyst, a service that lives entirely inside Telegram. Naturally, everything there is built around the Telegram ID. For me i…
While it rains outside almost every day, I’ve gone back to working on the project (the same one I first planned to launch in August, then in September). Here is what is already done: 1. A solid MVP th…

A bit more about Fullyst (English version). Yesterday, as part of competitor and potential-competitor analysis, I finally got to grep_robot. Like many of its rivals, it only does a subset of what Full…
A long pause here usually means we are working on something big – and this time is no exception. Not only is Fullyst evolving, but the company behind it, Improvy OÜ, is also entering a new chapter. Fr…
