Tired of Building Apps That Get 0 Users? I Was Too -Here's What I'm Testing to Fix It

You're an indie hacker. You've got the skills. You fire up Lovable.dev (or Bolt, V0, whatever vibe-coding tool is hot this week), prompt an MVP in hours, deploy it... and crickets. No signups. No shares. Zero traction.

90% of MVPs die here—not from bad code, but from user drought. I've lived it three times: quiz app, SaaS tool, landing page generator. Each shipped fast. Each stalled at 5-50 users max. The build was easy. Distribution? Impossible.
Sound familiar? You're not alone. Every indie hacker has this scar tissue.

The Problem: Shipping ≠ Success
We obsess over prompts, components, Drizzle schemas. But post-launch? Crickets.

Built a quiz funnel → 200 visitors, 0 conversions (SEO promise, delivery fail).

Shipped a prompt generator → Product Hunt launch, 150 upvotes, 0 sales.

Tried viral loops → Nobody shared because... nobody cared enough.

The dirty truth: Most "AI app builders" optimize for pixels, not people. You get a pretty app. Users? Solve that yourself.

My Fix: Prompts That Bake In Distribution
What if your prompts shipped with user acquisition hardcoded? Not generic "add a share button." Real loops: waitlists that convert 20%, referrals that spread, SEO that ranks Day 1.

I built lovable-prompts.com: 50+ battle-tested prompts embedding:

• Viral referral mechanics (inspired by RabbitHole's 10x growth).

• Waitlist funnels (3 questions → 47% opt-in).

• Social proof carousels (doubles trust instantly).

• Post-launch emails (re-engage 30% of "abandoned" visitors).

Result? My test app hit 127 users Week 1 (before I even marketed).

The Pilot: 100% Free Access for Feedback. Want in? First 20 indie hackers who reply, get full library + prompt generator access (no paywall, I'll give you a 100% off dicscount code).

In return: Honest feedback after 1 week. "Did these get you users? What broke? Ship faster?" Screenshots/metrics appreciated.
