$4.5K/Month From a Vibe-Coded Trend Scraper (Zero Marketing)

Great_Key_766 runs a cosmetics brand in Russia that leans heavily on influencer marketing.

📝 From a recent Reddit post…

i had 5-7 people on my team whose only job was scrolling tiktok and instagram looking for viral reels in beauty niches, tracking which creators are growing, what audio is trending.

it cost me about $3k/mo just for that

So he vibe-coded his way out of it 🤖

scrapes trending reels in any niche, ai scores them by trend potential, shows which creators to watch. used cursor and lovable, zero coding background

A month later, his 5-7 person scrolling team was down to 2 reviewers.

Then it got interesting 👇

a friend who owns a fashion label asked what tool i’m using. showed her, she wanted access. then she introduced me to someone in food industry. then that person told a friend in fitness

🤑 Eight months in, he’s on $4.5K MRR with 45 paying clients.

never did any marketing. no ads, no content, no product hunt launch. just personal introductions between brand owners in different niches

He didn’t see this coming:

the funny thing is my cosmetics brand is still my main business. this was supposed to be a side tool for myself. now the side tool makes almost as much as some months of the main business
