The BEST AI Coder for Your Next Big Idea


Hey Reader,

Yesterday, I realized I've been giving some of you the wrong advice.

I've been pushing tools like Cursor and Windsurf as the "best option" for building your app.

But here's my mistake: you might not actually need them.

No-Code tools like Lovable could be the better choice.

But what should you choose?

When NO-CODE Beats AI Coding Tools

If you're building any of these 3 things...

1️⃣ A landing page or mini website (like a link-in-bio or newsletter page)

2️⃣ A simple app with basic login/registration and database storage

3️⃣ Something that just integrates standard services (like Stripe payments)

You're probably BETTER OFF using no-code tools like Lovable over AI editors.

Because they give you much more visual control without having to prompt an AI to make every change.

When You Actually Need AI Coding Tools

But there's a flip side.

AI coding editors are still the right choice if:

➡️ You need complex background processes (like my socialhacks.app)

➡️ You're building anything that's not a web app (e.g., a mobile app)

➡️ You're integrating multiple third-party services that need to talk to each other

Most people won't tell you this because they're busy selling you their "one solution for everything."

I just want you to choose the right tool for YOUR next big idea.

Hey Reader, Last week, the AI world was freaking out. OpenAI bought Windsurf, cue the chaos. "OpenAI will kill off every other model!""Google’s done!""This is the AI apocalypse!" But here's what no one’s telling you. It’s all noise. What Really Happened Yes, OpenAI did buy Windsurf (for $3B, btw). And yeah, Gemini’s been extremely slow on it. But that’s actually on Google, not Windsurf. Gemini 2.5 Pro’s been unstable everywhere. Especially since the update to it a week ago. Sometimes it...

Hey Reader, I’ve been hiding something from you. The emails you’ve been reading every week… not mine. I’ve secretly been using AI as my personal copywriter, and nobody noticed. But here’s the craziest part. I only spend 15 minutes writing them each week. And I think you should too. Here’s how. My AI Newsletter Framework I used to spend hours (no joke) writing these emails. Now, I use Claude (the best AI for writing in my opinion) to semi-automate them instead. Not only do I save a ton of...
