Retrieving publicly available data shouldn't require:
• Puppeteer
• Cheerio
• XPath hell
• Selectors that break every 48 hours
I tested an AI tool that lets you describe the data you want & returns structured JSON.

Interesting approach Lee. Turning messy public web data into structured JSON with AI could simplify a lot of workflows.
I mean you can literally give it a schema. Otherwise sure it's AI, it could go hog wild. But yeah I'd create a schema in Zod transform it to JSON and yeah fire that off to the API.
You can use whatever tools you prefer of course but yeah.
That’s a solid approach. Giving it a schema definitely keeps things predictable instead of letting the AI run wild.

Most of us finish a design in Figma Make… but we still don’t truly know how different users will experience it.
So I created Zero Reader - an innovation around the classic left/right swipe.
You tap “Zero Test” and swipe between different user types
Design adapts in real time. see heat map, download a visual report

I've generated 8 figures in revenue for clients through video content alone.
Here's what I've learned after 6 years and hundreds of projects:
The content that makes money looks different from the content that wins awards.
It's not about cinematic B-roll or smooth transitions. It's about the first 3 seconds. It's about saying the thing your audience is already thinking. It's about making someone feel like you're talking directly to them.
One of my clients got 60 inbound leads from a single video. Another's content landed $4M+ in enterprise deals. I've produced 20+ ad creatives per week for months.
The pattern is always the same:
lead with the problem, prove you understand it better than they do, then show the way out!
