v0.1.12·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Umami funnel + step-4 softening

Funnel events tracked through Umami (landing → idea → email → analysis → roadmap). Step 4 now confirms waitlist instead of asking for $129 — Paddle isn't wired yet, so the $129 ask was a lie.

v0.1.11·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Landing waitlist signup

Direct waitlist signup on the landing page for people who aren't ready to answer the 4 questions yet. Also: rebrand from "Let Me Cook" to "Let Me Cook It" everywhere.

v0.1.10·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Resend waitlist segment

Every funnel and landing email lands in the letmecookit-waitlist segment in Resend automatically. One list, one source of truth.

v0.1.9·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Rate limit on analysis

Per-IP and per-email rate limit on /start/analysis. The Claude API bill is no longer one bored Redditor away from a $500 surprise.

v0.1.8·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Production deploy

Live at letmecookit.app. Cloudflare → Railway, custom Dockerfile build, Resend domain verified, Umami analytics wired.

v0.1.7·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Resend templates

Analysis email moved to a real Resend template with a verified [email protected] sender. No more inline HTML.

v0.1.6·MAY 22, 2026shipped

Analysis email

After /start/analysis renders, the analysis is also emailed so people can come back to it without re-running the AI call.

v0.1.5·MAY 21, 2026shipped

Live AI analysis

Step 3 of the funnel runs a real call to Claude Haiku 4.5 with the user's four answers and returns a structured analysis — three real competitors, pricing intel, positioning suggestion.

v0.1.4·MAY 21, 2026shipped

URL state

Funnel state lives in the URL so refreshing or sharing a link keeps the answers. No backend session needed yet.

v0.1.3·MAY 21, 2026shipped

Funnel routes

/start → /start/email → /start/analysis → /start/roadmap. Mobile-first, four screens, no signup until the email step.

v0.1.2·MAY 21, 2026shipped

Scaffold + landing

Next.js 16 + Tailwind v4 scaffold, design tokens lifted from the Claude Design canvas, the warm/cozy/sans variant baked in.

v0.1.1·MAY 21, 2026shipped

Strategy + sketches

Locked the audience (SideHustle / TikTok / Reddit, not indie hackers), the promise (first sale in 30 days, refund if no sale), the price ($129 once), and the scope (digital products only). Sketched 11 mobile screens.

Paddle checkout
Wire the actual $129 transaction so the funnel goes all the way through.
02
First-cohort manual fulfillment
Hand-write landings and decks for the first 5 paying buyers before building the platform behind it.
03
Platform build
Only if manual fulfillment validates the wedge. 6–10 weeks of work; not a sunk-cost commitment.
