AI Summary

The video documents the process of building a profitable mobile app from scratch using only AI tools, without any manual coding. The creator uses ChatGPT for ideation and Crayo for app development, resulting in a functional AI flashcard generator app called Study Snap (later rebranded to Quizzer AI) within a few hours.

[00:02]
Goal: Build a profitable app with AI only

The creator aims to replicate the success of apps making $100k/month by building one entirely with AI, no coding.

[00:15]
Idea generation with ChatGPT

ChatGPT suggests several app ideas; the top picks are a habit tracker and an AI flashcard generator for students.

[01:37]
Selected idea: AI flashcard generator

The final choice is an AI flashcard generator that turns lessons into flashcards, targeting students.

[01:49]
Using Crayo to build the app

Crayo, a tool for building AI-native apps, is used to generate the app from a prompt. It creates the structure, screens, and AI logic.

[03:11]
App generation and logo creation

Crayo generates the app using three APIs. Meanwhile, the creator uses ChatGPT to design a logo and name the app 'Study Snap'.

[05:03]
Testing the app

The app successfully processes a fake lesson PDF, generates flashcards, and creates quizzes. The premium upgrade button is implemented with Stripe.

[07:24]
Deployment and marketing

The app is deployed via Netlify by dragging files. Marketing is done on Reddit by posting the link in study tool threads.

[08:35]
Final result

A fully functional web app is built in about 3 hours. The creator plans to update on its success in future videos.

The video demonstrates that with modern AI tools, it's possible to build a functional, monetizable web app in a few hours without coding. The creator emphasizes the potential for rapid development and deployment using AI agents.

[00:02] making millions a year, like $100,000 a month. And so I was like, why don't we do the same exact thing in one video? So yes, today we will be trying to make a profitable app only using AI from scratch. No code, bro. And the first

[00:15] thing we need is a really good idea. So I'm just going to ask Chad DBT to to spin me out some ideas. I want to make profitable mobile app that people would use today. All right. Spit spit spit to me some ideas, chat. Give me

[00:30] gave some ideas. Let's Let's just look at some of them. AI study helper. This one's not bad. I feel like I would use this. Maybe. AI fitness nutrition coach. Yeah, I'm just not interested in that. AI tax deduction finder. All right,

[00:43] we're not boomers. This will be really profitable, though. Phone declutter app. terrible. This one's definitely in the top three [music] right now cuz the tracker. Okay, this one's pretty cool. Visual progress animation. Each habit

[00:56] grows a digital plant. Ooh, this one is pretty cool. I might do this one. Okay, the best one I'm seeing so far is [music] definitely habit tracker. I'm put this at number one. Put this in the sticky note. Number one, habit tracker.

[01:09] helper. This one's not terrible. It's not bad. You can see I I like I would use it maybe like back in the day, but now I study pretty well. AI flashcard generator is pretty cool. I I think I've seen this actually. AI resume internship

[01:24] finder for students. This isn't terrible. I might do the AI flashcard useful. If you just upload like your lesson or doc and it turns it to flashcards for you. Yeah, this one I like. AI flashcard generator for

[01:37] students. Turn any lesson into flashcards. This one might be it. All right. So, we have our milliondoll idea. We're going to make a AI flashcard generator app. Now, all we need to do is actually make it. And as I said, we're

[01:49] not going to be coding. So, we're going to be using strictly AI agents, which is actually the perfect time to use Crayo. And this is literally a tool made to build AI native apps. All right, let's pretty much tell it that we want to

[02:01] build this. So, let's just copy the AI flashcard generator. Let's tell Chad to description of this app and give us a good prompt that we could give Crayo to make it in the simplest way possible so it's up and running immediately cuz I

[02:14] it's up and running immediately cuz I want to be rich fast. make this into a want to be rich fast. make this into a nice prompt so I can give it to Crayo to build the app

[02:29] the app simply all from scratch so it can be up and running in one shot. Just give me a better prompt so I can paste it. I like using chatbt as a workhorse. That's that's that's your that's your only

[02:44] apocus happens, do not come after me. Okay, here it is. So, app structure, onboarding, home dashboard, upload [music] screen processing, flash. Okay, so it's a simple simple design. So, here this is the money-making part. Premium

[02:58] Unlimited flash cards. Okay, one time microtransactions, flashcard packs, quiz enhancer. Okay, this is not terrible. Final output, all screens fully designed, all AI logic implemented. So, let's let's paste all this into Crayo

[03:11] and let's see how well AI makes our app from scratch. Hopefully, we could be Paste it into Crayo [music] and let's make make my app for me. [music] be something I would actually use every single day. So, I I I need I

[03:26] brief. It's It's cooking. It's cooking. Using three APIs. Okay, I like what I seeing right now. It's looking like we're making a lot of money. This This approve it. Hey, AI agent. Okay, now it's cook. It's cooking. I think it's

[03:40] literally just going to make the app right here. So, in the meantime, let's make a app logo. Let's just ask ShadByt to cook up a app logo for us. A graduation cap, maybe. Hold on. Make me a black and white logo for this app.

[03:54] [music] And I want it to be just a graduation cap on a black background. You guys see the vision? Like I I wanted to be like a Nothing too extra. Something like them modern apps like like Notion. Boom. That

[04:10] our logo, I guess. So, let's let's add this to the folder. Now, I just need an ones I'm thinking of don't even sound like PG-13. Flashmind study snap. Okay,

[04:22] this one is fire. Study snap is fire. Recall AI is not bad. Study snap might literally turns into flash cards. Like, this one might be the best. Okay, let's go with study snap. Our app name is Study Snap. Add that right there. Yeah,

[04:37] let's check on Creo. It's It's still generating API hooks and stuff. Okay, That's what I like to see. Yo, with Study Snap, we have to at least make like a billion first month. If we're not making at least 1 billion first month,

[04:51] I'm joking. I generally don't even know what I'm saying sometimes. All right, so Crayo just finished making my web app and I think it took like about 15 well it did. Hey, we are working buttons. That's always a good sign.

[05:03] Let's put in a fake email. YouTube.com. I don't know. So, boom. This is our dashboard. Okay, this is actually really good. This looks like one of them like upload the material here. Let's ask Shajb to make like a fake study plan or

[05:17] like make a [music] fake lesson. We're about to test this bad boy out. If this works first try in 50 minutes of work, honestly, all we have to do now is just slap our name on it, slap our logo, and we're kind of in the big leagues. I'm

[05:29] not going to lie. Oh, we also have to handle payments and advertise it. No, lesson PDF. Let's download this. And now, let's upload it and see if it actually makes like the [music] flash cards. Okay. processing. There it is.

[05:42] my mind is about to be blown. I'm not going to lie. It actually works. You could change the level, too, bro. What the heck? Let's go to beginner. Um, generate more. Okay, but the the generation function works. I like that.

[05:56] I like this. Okay, what about quizzes? It makes going to it make a quiz for us like offer rip already. Which of following is not reactant photosynthesis um reactant? Wait, hold on. Let me actually think. carbon dioxide cuz

[06:08] actually think. carbon dioxide cuz photosynthesis it releases right. Okay. going to tell us. So, let's just test. Yo, it actually gives you a quiz. Graze. Bro, this is actually Hold on. We might

[06:20] be on to something. I'm not going to lie. So far, this is amazing. It really functional. The only thing is we need to when we click it. Okay, here it is. Upgrade to premium. We should probably

[06:32] like use Stripe for the subscription stuff. All right, let's refine the app stuff. All right, let's refine the app further.

[06:45] to lie, I'm going to put the flashcard feature in the premium plan. And then I'm just going to change app name to quizzer AI and make it more like an AI like that feature the most and I feel like I would use it more. And so I'm

[06:58] just going to tell it to send it to this custom strike payout link I made so they they so choose to to make like unlimited I'm pretty sure after that we're ready to deploy this bad boy and make

[07:11] took actually the longest time out of all of them for some reason to finish. as it should be. And when you click upgrade to premium, it should take you to the payout page for Stripe. Now all we got to do is really Yeah, let's

[07:24] billion dollars. First, we have to put it as an actual website then. So, from the app I actually just made, I can actually download all these files from Creo itself. So then I could just push it to GitHub and I could just start my

[07:37] so much for sponsoring this video because this platform was literally app. So instead of Versal, we're actually going to be using Netlefi to actually pretty simple. All you had to do is just drag all the files into it

[07:51] and it just manually deploys it. Okay, so it is finally deployed. Look at this, guys. Oh, and the the thing still say study AI, but that's fine. You know what market apps like this is Reddit. If you want to do some free marketing for your

[08:05] just look for students who need like a study tool to maybe turn their class study. [music] This guy's asking, "What study tool do you guys use?" So, I'm just going to put I use paste our link because it is awesome and it makes

[08:21] because it is awesome and it makes quizzes out of your study materials. Boom. Kind of just do this and go around and, you know, help people out with your these. So, I'm just going to go around do that. Yeah, that's kind of it without

[08:35] ver like we we made a whole entire profitable web app pretty much from scratch in like less than I'd say like 3 hours. It really took. So guys, check obviously. And obviously, I'm going to be updating you guys on [music] how

[08:48] successful this app does in future videos, but honestly, this is this is solid. Like, I think I would actually generally use this in my daily life. obviously. And if you're new around here, subscribe, you know what I mean?

[09:01] fun. Yeah. I'll see you guys in the next one. This this this one was [snorts] definitely one of the dumbest videos I ever
