but I'm happy that at least _sometimes_ I can still outsmart it :P

don't get yourself an OpenClaw bot .. he'll talk you into buying new domains at midnight

UI for managing API Keys in Vemetric 👌

proof that Opus 4.6 reached senior engineer level: intentionally forgets to write tests

been touching grass for a few hours, coming back, and they again added some digits to their models 🤷‍♂️ let’s give them a try in tonights coding session! :D

new profile picture has landed in the end, I decided against the outline .. just a plain photo 👌 goodbye purple background, was a nice era 👋

yesterday I've shipped a bigger refactoring to merge Vemetric's frontend + backend into one application, so they can be deployed together let's take a look at the next big thing on the agenda 👿

quite some people asked me already how they can delete a project they've created for testing purposes .. so I finally shipped a Danger Zone in the settings of a project in Vemetric 😅

it’s so fulfilling to slowly bootstrap your own product into profitability .. without any VCs / external money it’s like investing in the stock market, but instead of money, you put in your time and effort you learn along the way and get better with spending your time on the right things

a year ago I switched from my comic avatar to a real one I think it's time for it to "molt" into its final form :P the question is: keep the white outline or not?

January's Search performance wasn't too bad! SEO is such a long-term game .. and it feels really good when it finally yields results 💪

I wanted to do a release tonight .. please little octocats, get this fixed 🥲

I'm sponsoring OpenAlternative in February 🫡 additionally, I also created a Google Ad campaign last week I want to get more eyes on Vemetric and experiment more with ads and sponsorships :D

my little daughter turned one year old today 🥹 time flies by .. having kids and seeing them grow up brings so much joy into your life ❤️

god bless my Mac Mini shipped with Sequoia 🙏

I'm currently doing a bigger refactoring for Vemetric .. I'm merging my static Vite SPA into my Hono Server so it results in a single service (the backend serves the frontend) doing it so I have single deployments + make self-hosting easier 1/2

is this real life? 🥹 two days in a row with a sale - I think that's a first one for Vemetric 🥳

so sad to see the enshittification of apple 😢 was a bit naive to think they‘re immune to it, it probably was inevitable

the question is not only „is this a good product idea to pursue?“ but also „do I want to work on this product idea in a year from now?“

I'm using clawdbot (now moltbot 🥲) since early january since then, it already gotten to know my product quite well yesterday, it led me through the setup of creating Google Ads for Vemetric and helped me to create a (hopefully) solid campaign (including writing of the Ad copy) 1/3

what a nice way to end the first month of the new year 🥳 especially after some silent weeks, this is another great motivation boost, Vemetric is now at $150 MRR let's go!

some of you seem to be annoyed by the little lobster .. it still amazes me a lot! (hint: the heavy lifting is still done by my own bash script, but he navigates to notion, exports it, executes the script .. we chatted for 15mins to go through this workflow, he made some adjustments to my script)

feels like there were more React releases in the past two months than in the past two years combined

I've released a little improvement for member invitations in Vemetric: it's now already possible to restrict the project access when creating the invitation link, so the new member only has access to specific projects after accepting the invitation

it's now possible to upload an avatar for your user profile in Vemetric 🕺

the internet: you don't need a mac mini for your clawdbot, it just runs on a rasperry pi, or get a $1 VPS, or run it in a VM my brain: GO BUY THAT MAC MINI

just bought a new home for my clawdbot 🤩 why even bother buying something directly from Apple when it's always so much cheaper on Amazon (in this case, it even makes a huge difference tax-wise for me here in Austria) + delivers a week earlier?!

my new homeoffice is ready! 🥳 as the kids are turning older and are sleeping in their own bedroom in the evening, I got kicked out of my previous working room 🥲 our house is missing a specific office room, but now we turned our closet room into an office! :D

a new customer story for Vemetric is live 🥳 I'm so proud of having so many great customers for Vemetric already ❤️ .. there are more stories to come!

busy times for me at the moment life can be overwhelming with work + private stuff + two little kids, but that’s how it is :) in these times I‘m always sad that I don’t have enough time + energy for my products, but I‘m always sure there will be better times again 💪

after finishing the organization settings, it's now time to tackle the account settings still doing foundational work here, but it's time to give the users the option to change their email & password 😅

I added yet another channel for my AI assistant Francis, he’s now helping me to get back in shape 😬 this year seems be the time where I‘m working more with a personal assistant .. and the cool thing about clawdbot is, that I‘m still keeping all the main context of my personal data locally on my PC

It's now possible to invite members / join other organizations 🥳

finally started with Playwright E2E tests for Vemetric the project is growing in complexity, and especially now that users can be part of multiple orgas + have granular access only to specific projects, I want to have a test suite that ensures these things work as expected

Francis and I, planning tomorrow's release 🤝 Gute Nacht! :D

Organization Member management in Vemetric is taking shape!

added this smooth animation when switching between dark and light mode in Vemetric because .. why not? :D

been playing around with clawdbot these past days to have it integrated into my Slack server as personal AI assistant one channel per topic tbh, especially as a solopreneur, this feels great, as it’s keeping in mind the details and helps you plan + bounce off new ideas

yesterday it was the left one 😤

took me a bit longer than expected because I also handled some other things and fixes with it (e.g. proper fine granular project access for organization members) but not multi orga support is live 🥳 next: Organization Settings + a proper UI to manage members + their access

smaashing into the new year 🚀

I'm slowly getting the hang of integrating AI agents into my daily workflow, let it be for coding or for other tasks two years ago some gurus on X told me I'll be too late if I don't learn it IMMEDIATELY doesn't feel like I'm too late at all 🤷 .. we're all learning, adapting, and improving

he could relax, but he decides to put in the reps while his bros are working hard 🫡

Claude Code helped me to fully automate the process of publishing Blog Posts from Notion exports (I already had a script in place, but still had to do some steps manually) 1/2

I was whining about a slow December for Vemetric now in the first week of January there were already more projects onboarded than throughout the whole month of December + we crushed through the 100 active projects metric 🤯 let's goo 🚀

Being emotionally disconnected from your product and making rational, data-based decisions, while still caring and putting in the love for the details, is so hard for me But it likely yields the best results for both the product and the users

Monthly update for @vemetric.com: December 2025 🎄 🌐 98 Active Projects (+5) ⭐️ 327 GitHub Stars (+10) 📈 723.160 Events Tracked (+91.653) 💰 $131 MRR (+$5)

I've included Organizations in Vemetric's data structure straight from the beginning (a user can be part of multiple orgas, orgas have multiple members with roles), but they weren't visible in the UI, just automatically created during onboarding that's going to change soon!

Starting into the new year with the biggest payout yet for Vemetric 🥳 Wishing you all a Happy New Year! May 2026 be a great year for us all :D
