“I build the idea and benchmark with AI, and after I make an MD and put [it] to Claude Code, and after it's just an exchange with Claude Code. And after I build and I deploy.”

Rob (founder), AI Bites on YouTube, Oct 12, 2026

Editor's note: Rob is not a developer by training: he worked in landscaping from age 16, then two years in plasterboard, before getting into crypto and running a small digital agency in Dijon, France, with his cofounder. At the end of 2025 they launched a batch of small SaaS products. He says he gave Manus his stack (Next.js, Vercel, Supabase) and asked it to create a new micro-SaaS about 20 times, then picked the ones worth keeping; VectoSolve came out of that batch and fixed his own need to vectorize logos. He now writes each idea up as a Markdown spec and builds it in Claude Code, which he calls his "best friend". The conversion itself runs on an open-source model and JavaScript scripts. The quote is from YouTube's auto-captions, which render Claude Code as "cloud code". His X account, @Go_To_Rob, lists vectosolve.com among his projects.

How they got customers

Almost entirely SEO. He translated the site into 12 languages and generated about 1,000 landing pages for conversion pairs (PNG to SVG, JPG to SVG and so on), then wrote about 200 blog articles. Launches on Peerpush, Product Hunt and Reddit brought early backlinks; later he swapped backlinks with niche blogs. New export formats for Cricut, laser, CNC and embroidery users came from customer requests and each got its own landing page.

Steps to try

  1. Solve a small problem you have yourself; he needed to vectorize logos for his other projects.

  2. Write the idea up as a Markdown spec, then build it in a back-and-forth with Claude Code and deploy.

  3. Go wide on SEO: one landing page per conversion pair in 12 languages, plus a blog (about 1,000 pages and 200 articles).

  4. If lots of free users never pay, tighten the free tier; cutting free conversions from 25 to 3 brought the first payments.

  5. Sell credit packs next to subscriptions: about half of VectoSolve's revenue is one-time, so its $1,676 MRR understates what it earns.
