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.

Smarter AI placements that respect your layout

The AI now understands spatial context better, placing materials thoughtfully around your content without overlaps and finding the best available spots automatically.

We've improved how the AI positions materials in your workspace by giving it a real sense of space. Instead of relying on fixed coordinates, the AI now considers nearby elements and annotations, making placement feel more intuitive and natural.

Thoughtful placement based on spatial awareness
The system keeps track of where elements are located and which areas are free, so the AI can avoid cluttering or overlapping existing content. If the ideal spot is taken, it gracefully searches nearby until it finds a good place to put your material.

This means your pages will stay neat and well-organized, with AI suggestions that blend seamlessly into your layout rather than getting in the way. You'll notice a smoother, more polished experience when adding AI-generated content.
