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.

Create and share beautiful screenshots with watermark protection

You can now easily create polished screenshot mockups on a new public page, complete with watermark protection for anonymous users and smooth upgrade options designed to help you get more from your designs.

We’ve just launched a brand new screenshot mockup tool accessible to everyone at the /screenshot page. This lets you quickly craft professional-looking screenshots that are perfect for presentations, social sharing, or client previews.

Built with your needs in mind
To keep things simple and fair, anonymous users will see a watermark on their screenshots, helping protect your designs while still letting you show off your work easily. If you’re ready for the full experience, we’ve added subtle upgrade prompts both in a sidebar and after you download your creation — designed to help you discover even more powerful features.

Find it easily and share confidently
The new page is optimized with SEO best practices and includes structured data, making it easier to find online under keywords like “Screely alternative.” We’ve also added helpful internal links from the footer and main landing page so you can jump straight there without any hassle. Now creating and sharing sleek screenshot mockups feels faster and more polished than ever.
