Watch Me Build an AI SaaS in a Day (2 HOUR COURSE)
My playbook for growing a $1M AI agency: https://app.aiautomationsociety.ai/opaa-ads-optin My FREE resources: https://www.skool.com/ai-automation-society/about?el=saas-2-hour-course&hcategory=youtube-videos&utm_campaign=free-group My Tools💻 FREE MONTH voice to text: https://get.glaido.com/nate Code NATEHERK for 10% off VPS (annual plan): https://www.hostinger.com/vps/claude-code-hosting I built an AI SaaS product in one day, starting with no idea at all. You'll see the whole run: research agents scanning 60,000+ comments to find a real pain point, the branding and waitlist page, the app itself with Supabase auth and Stripe subscriptions, a security review that caught four high-severity release blockers, and a live domain at the end. Then I go over what happens after the build, such as getting your first 50 customers, pricing without guessing, and why I'd pay small creators before putting a dollar into ads. If you've been sitting on an idea, this should show you how much of it you can actually do yourself.
