- Challenge
- A vibe-coding product with strong retention and no distribution outside of X. Previous agency work had delivered reach with almost no signups.
- Creator strategy
- Shift from broad AI accounts to developer creators whose audiences already build side projects weekly, and pair each video with a live demo repo.
- Why these creators
- Audience intent was the deciding factor: viewers came for tutorials they would actually run, not for AI news.
- Execution
- Sourcing and vetting, outreach to a shortlist, rate negotiation, briefs, script review on technical accuracy, and launch coordination across four weeks.
- Result
- Eight pieces live, a repeatable brief template, and a creator tier list the in-house team now runs themselves.
