Core positioning (memorize this)

• Headline: "90% cheaper than Browserbase — you don't need stealth mode to access your own accounts."
• Wedge: Browserbase/Browserless assume you're a bot pretending to be human. VibeBrowser's users are already human — real accounts, real sessions. Makes 80% of competitor features irrelevant.
• Local-first: Chrome extension is free, no account, works with any MCP client.
• Cloud option: VibeBrowser Cloud = your real session deployed globally, no stealth costs.
• Never lead with tech. Lead with the user's pain (re-auth hell, billing traps, infra babysitting).

Workflow

Creating a new post

1. Read growth.md for latest strategy and angles
2. Check growth.csv — don't double-post to the same community
3. Write the post (see platform rules in references/platforms.md)
4. Use vibebrowser MCP tools to navigate and submit
5. Append the post to growth.csv immediately
6. Update growth.md TODO list

Tracking existing threads

1. Search the platform for brand mentions ("vibebrowser", "vibe browser", "vibe mcp")
2. Log any found threads in growth.csv with status "found"
3. Reply to unanswered questions or upvote-worthy threads

After posting

• Monitor for 1 hour: check for comments, reply promptly
• Update growth.csv with score/upvotes after 24h

Platform rules

See references/platforms.md for full per-platform guidelines.

Quick rules:

• HN: "Show HN" for new tools. Technical, honest, no marketing speak. Reply to every comment.
• Reddit: Educational > promotional. Share blog posts over product pages. One post per sub, days apart.
• X/Twitter: Thread format. Lead with the insight ("You're paying Browserbase $150/mo for stealth you don't need"), end with product link.
• Never cross-post the same text verbatim. Each platform needs its own voice.
