The repo looks solid; wondering where Part 1 (synthetic prompting) lives though? Or are you suggesting that seeing traffic from a bot helps you learn of the questions LLM client users asked?
1. Brand monitoring — Loamly runs queries against ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity etc. and shows you what they say about your brand. That part runs on our side (needs API keys, scheduled jobs), so it's not in the open source repo.
2. Traffic detection — this is what's in the repo. Detects when AI-referred visitors hit your site using HTTP signatures and timing patterns.
They work together but you can use either on its own. Part 1 shows what AI is saying, Part 2 shows when it actually sends you traffic.
The idea is to give you a full picture: synthetic prompting shows how AI recommends you, traffic detection shows when that turns into real visits. Connecting both lets you actually measure the impact — and the RAG chat (Ask Loamly) can tie it all together.
Let me know if anything's unclear — happy to dig into the details.
I think it won’t replace people for quite some time.
But it will replace people that don’t want to use AI! It still requires someone to closely monitor, tweak a prompt, change direction, or manually fix some code.
That said, a product manager or QA specialist who is motivated to learn how to prompt, “vibe code”, and interact with an LLM is going to be much better off than a software engineer that just wants to hand write code.
I think anyone working on small tools that improve a specific process (but doesn’t fit a business need precisely) will find themselves losing customers. Motivated folks will just start building their own tools to meet their needs instead.
Agree with your stance on micro SasS space, I've just built two internal tools for my marketing co-founder, one was a Tiktok dashboard to track impressions for all our accounts. Another was dynamically rendered pages for the Tikok posters, that rendered posting info and schedule from notion.
Both took 1 - 2 days each. They are very basic but do the job and i don't have to pay $20 - $50 for another service.
awesome - any way to get an invite? trying to convince team mates to all use Tower but have a guy on Windows that is the goto excuse for us not all adopting it.
Signed up on March 25th and continue to check my inbox every day. So keen to get my org. using Docker but the dev experience has been a blocker to date so very eager to get them on board!
