TodayMet now has a public GitHub repository

We’ve published the first version of TodayMet’s public developer repository. It brings together the resources developers and AI agents need to understand and integrate with TodayMet: - API documentation and practical examples - Model Context Protocol (MCP) setup and tool reference - Profile and content-model documentation - Examples for links, documents, galleries, maps, media, and testimonials - Privacy, visibility, and responsible-integration guidance - MIT-licensed code examples and CC-licensed documentation TodayMet helps people and organizations create structured, shareable professional profiles that can be maintained directly or with the assistance of compatible AI tools. The public repository makes that integration surface easier to inspect, test, and build upon. This is an initial public release, and we’ll continue updating it as the platform evolves. Repository: https://github.com/TodayMet/todaymet Product: https://todaymet.com Feedback, issues, and integration ideas are welcome.

Hello everyone!

We just launched hawkscan.ai. It’s a service that lets you track how your visibility across LLMs is changing—and, most importantly, gives you a concrete action plan to improve it. We use it on our main website, which gets over 150K unique visitors per month. To celebrate the launch, we’re offering early adopters 50% off for life. In return, we’ll just ask for occasional feedback on product updates. Contact me directly if you’re interested. We’ll keep this offer open until we have around 20 early adopters.

People condemn vibe coding, saying it isn't real coding. But…

I believe the difference isn't the tool; it's the mentality behind it. Use AI to learn faster, build smarter, experiment more, and turn ideas into reality. Don't just copy and paste. Understand what you're building and keep improving. **While they argue about the method, you could be miles ahead building something real.** Master the tool. Sharpen your mind. Keep building. 🚀

We’ve expanded TodayMet’s example profile library from 8 to…

The 15 new profiles cover professions including graphic design, illustration, video editing, voice acting, translation, virtual assistance, interior design, architecture, consulting, academic research, writing, journalism, public speaking, acting, and music. These aren’t just placeholder pages. Each profile demonstrates how TodayMet can work for that profession, including: - Profession-specific introductions, highlights, and calls to action - Protected contact details such as personal email, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn - Protected résumés and selected private materials - Location and Google Maps integration - “Currently” and “Working style” sections - Realistic content structure and visual presentation - A dedicated guide explaining how to build an effective profile for that use case The profiles and guides link to each other through a central examples hub, giving visitors a clearer path from researching a use case to seeing the finished result. We also updated the sitemap workflow so editor-managed profiles are automatically exposed to search engines after creation, without requiring another application build. All 30 new profile and guide URLs have now been submitted through Google Search Console. Explore the full library: https://todaymet.com/examples
