How I stopped wasting 10 hours on PRDs and started building (The "Product-Led" Way)

Hey everyone,

As a designer/founder, I used to hate writing PRDs. I'd spend hours in Google Docs, stressing over feature specs, user flows, and edge cases, only to realize I was overcomplicating things.

I realized that writing specs isn't the work building the product is.

So, I built a tool that takes a rough idea and automatically generates a dev-ready PRD in 5 minutes.

I'm not saying this replaces human product thinking, but it definitely kills the "blank page syndrome" and saves 90% of the busy work.

I've put together a few examples of how it turns a 1-liner idea into a full-blown PRD on my site. If you're currently drowning in feature specs or Google Docs, take a look and tell me if this saves you time.

    “Writing specs isn’t the work. Building the product is.”

    That line will resonate with a lot of early-stage founders.

    A good PRD should create clarity, not become a bottleneck. The biggest advantage of AI-generated documentation is probably psychological: helping teams move from idea paralysis into execution mode quickly.

    Also smart move showing real examples publicly instead of forcing calls first.

      While I understand where you're coming from, I must respectfully disagree with the notion that writing product specifications isn't 'real work.' Drawing from my experience across various startups and operating a service with a user base of 20,000, I've learned that while anyone can whip up an AI MVP over a weekend, making it truly compelling to users is a different story. Far too often, builders only realize after completing a product that they’ve merely cloned a single feature from an already successful app.

      You might argue that idea validation is trivial. Perhaps that’s true if you're building a highly specialized, niche service that requires deep, exclusive expertise. But if you’re aiming for a broader audience, it becomes even more critical to analyze market fit and understand where your idea truly stands. Investing 10 minutes to validate whether a service is actually worth building isn't a distraction it’s a shortcut. It protects your time and ultimately helps you build a better product, faster.
