Are you vibe-coding apps? Now that everybody is building apps with AI, there’s a huge problem that is occurring.

The problem? A bigger wasteland of AI slop with no distribution.

In this episode, Steve P. Young breaks down why most app founders are focused on the wrong thing, and why distribution, monetization, and finding what people are already searching for matter far more than shipping another feature.

You'll learn how to find app ideas based on demand, simple paywall tweaks that can dramatically increase revenue, and why building with a distribution-first mindset will separate your app from the rest of the AI slop.

If you're thinking about building an app with AI, this is the conversation I wish somebody had with me before I got started.

You’ll learn:

✅ How to find app ideas based on keywords people are already searching for

✅ Why distribution matters more than features in the age of AI

✅ Simple paywall and pricing changes that can multiply revenue

✅ Why some apps making six figures a month are ridiculously simple
