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.

Streamlined tracking with a single URL for impressions and clicks

Tracking is now simpler and more reliable by using one URL to record both image impressions and link clicks, making embedding and reporting easier for you.

We've simplified how tracking works by using a single URL that handles both image views and clicks. This means when someone’s banner loads, it counts as an impression, and when they click, that same link registers the click without needing separate addresses.

Easier embedding and cleaner interface
Your banner placement page now shows just one trackable URL, reducing confusion and making it straightforward to share or embed. The same link is used for both the image source and the clickable href, so you don’t have to manage multiple URLs.

This update makes tracking more consistent and lightweight, helping you get accurate stats without fuss. It’s a little change behind the scenes that makes a big difference in how smoothly your banners keep tabs on their impact.
