AI Bites Collective Website Built Entirely with AI
AI Bites Collective is a production-grade personal brand platform built entirely with AI in a single weekend. It replaces a basic Google Sites page with a full React application that brings together Stephanie Goutos’ Weekly AI Bites newsletter, a 500+ premium prompt library built from real legal and operational workflows, and a centralized thought leadership and professional recognition experience.
The site was scaffolded with Gemini, iterated through 39 commits with Claude, continuously deployed via 37 Vercel releases, and polished using Claude Cowork, with zero manual coding.
