Updates: myven Development and AI Automation Experiments

AI-generated image and not my actual environment

Lately, I’ve been focusing on developing myven and mapping out various business plans. However, I’m still finding the business side of things quite challenging. Reaching out to customers and finding that product-market fit still feels like a distant goal.

Currently, myven is a combination of a bio-link service and Instagram automation. Since the market is already quite saturated with bio-link tools, my immediate goal is to establish a monetization foundation with basic features. After that, I plan to differentiate the service by integrating various AI content generation features.

Lessons from handyapps and SEO

I recently built handyapps as an SEO experiment to see which keywords would gain traction. In conclusion, it was a failure. While one specific keyword did bring in a surprising amount of traffic, it’s not a niche I’m familiar with or particularly interested in. It’s hard to stay motivated when you’re working on something you don’t care about. ㅠㅠ

Returning to X.com (Twitter)

Now that my X.com account has been reinstated, I’m feeling motivated to try and earn some ad revenue there. I’m trying to grow my follower count again, but I’m being extra cautious. I’m worried about getting suspended again if I grow too quickly. They can be quite unpredictable…

”Pocket Money” via AI Automation

I’ve been experimenting with a few AI automation ideas, mostly centered around automated content generation. I’m testing different prompts and workflows myself. To be honest, there’s a tiny part of me hoping that consistently posting these might lead to some side income. -.-;;

GPT 5.5 and Codex App

GPT 5.5 was released recently. Since the jump from 5.3 was already so significant, I haven’t noticed a massive change in performance with 5.5 yet. On the plus side, the Codex App has added several great features that I’m really enjoying.

One observation: it feels like GPT 5.5 consumes tokens a bit faster than previous versions. It’s just a gut feeling for now, so I’ll have to monitor it more closely.

I have a lot of projects in motion, and I’m hoping to wrap them up one by one with meaningful results. Onward!

Note: I’m a solo developer based in Korea. I use AI to help translate my thoughts into English to share my journey with a global audience.
