What is hard to copy
A directory compiled city by city
3,134 speciality cafés and 1,391 roasters across 129 cities in 59 countries at remembrew.com, compiled and placed on the map.
Scanning with a real vision model
The bag photo is read by a Claude vision model that returns structured fields: origin, roaster, process.
Answers from your own history
Ask starts from what you rated yourself, rather than from coffee knowledge in general.
Why it is built this way
Zero spend before launch
A SwiftUI app, a Next.js site and a Supabase backend, chosen so nothing costs money before the first users and nothing locks the product in later.
The upgrade at the moment of value
Reaching the free Ask limit used to show only an error. Now that exact moment shows the plan that removes the limit.
Have something like this in mind?
Tell me what it should do. On a 30 minute call we work out whether it is worth building and what the first version needs.
