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.

Add customer notes to design submissions

You can now include personal notes when submitting your design for a quote, helping contractors better understand your vision and provide more accurate feedback.

We're excited to introduce a new feature that lets you add notes whenever you submit a design for a quote. This gives you a simple way to share extra details, preferences, or special requests directly with the contractor.

Clear communication made easy
Your notes appear prominently in the contractor's project view under the Design tab, so they won't miss any important context as they review your submission. Plus, these notes are included in their notification email, ensuring nothing gets overlooked.

By empowering you to provide more detailed information upfront, this update helps the entire project run smoother and ensures contractors understand your needs better from the start.
