Current State:
Our AI model has some quirky behaviours we're fixing:
Loves adding too many flowers and lamps
Makes bathrooms too dark
But sometimes these "mistakes" lead to interesting designs
Mom still sends me design issues, but now they're about the AI's flower obsession
Key Learnings:
Don't delete Google-indexed pages, learned this the hard way
WhatsApp-only wasn't the solution we thought
The best marketing? Showing real people using the tool in real-time
What's Next:
Adding French language support
Fixing our AI's enthusiasm for flowers and lighting
Making the platform more accessible beyond WhatsApp
New Idea We're Exploring: We're thinking about creating a dedicated space for interior designers, home improvement enthusiasts, and renovation experts to collaborate using our AI tool. Picture a community where professionals and enthusiasts can share designs, get feedback, and work on projects together, kind of like how my mom and her friends share designs, but at a larger scale.
What Do You Think:
Would you join a design-focused community platform?
How could AI best support collaboration between designers and clients?
Any other parents driving their kids to build startups?
Looking For:
Interior designers interested in AI collaboration
Home improvement and renovation experts
French language beta testers
Anyone interested in building a design community
P.S. Mom's latest message: "The AI added flowers again... but I kind of like them this time!" Progress?
