What It Is
Ask an AI coding assistant to browse Etsy itself (using its own built-in browser) to find digital products with strong proof of demand (high review counts, bestseller badges), then, once you pick one, have the same AI agent build your own original version of that product type (the presenter's live example: an Excel/Google Sheets planner with 11,000 reviews became the basis for a new spreadsheet product, built automatically inside a free, open-source design tool the AI installs and operates on your behalf) — the AI handles research, product creation, and asks you only for basic decisions like the product name and where to sell it.
The Pitch
The presenter demonstrates the entire process live and mostly hands-off, letting the AI browse Etsy, select four candidate products with reasoning for each, then build a working spreadsheet product end-to-end while he steps away, framing this as work you can start and let run in the background rather than sit and watch.
Who It’s Best For
Someone comfortable giving an AI agent a research-and-build task with light supervision rather than manually researching and designing a product themselves.
The Truth (as we see it)
AI coding agents with built-in web browsing that can research a marketplace and generate a matching product are a real, current capability demonstrated live rather than just described. No revenue figures for this specific method are given in this segment, and the approach still requires actually selling and marketing the resulting product, which isn't covered here.
