What is build in public and why should I do it?

Building in public means sharing your development journey on social media as you build your product. It helps you grow an audience, get early feedback, build credibility, and create marketing momentum before you even launch.

How does Makrly generate posts from my commits?

When you push code to GitHub, Makrly reads your commit messages and code changes. Our AI analyzes what you built, filters out mundane commits, and generates engaging social media posts tailored for each platform.

Is my code safe? What permissions do you need?

Yes, your code is safe. We only request read-only access to your repositories. We can't modify your code, create branches, or make any changes. We only read commit messages and diffs to understand what you're building.

Can I use my own AI API key?

Yes! You can bring your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or other providers through OpenRouter. This gives you full control over which AI model generates your posts.

Which platforms are supported?

Currently, Makrly generates posts optimized for X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Facebook. Each platform gets a different version tailored to its audience and format.

Your HandyPal widget works right away after Shopify app install

Sunday, February 15, 2026·1 min read

If your HandyPal subscription had expired or ended before, it now restarts automatically for free when you install the Shopify app. This means your widget is ready to go without any extra steps.

Before, if your subscription had expired or was canceled, installing the Shopify app wouldn’t reactivate it, which could stop your HandyPal widget from working immediately.

Now, when you install the Shopify app, your previous subscription will turn back on as a free plan automatically. This way, your widget starts working right away without you having to do anything extra.
