Built a super simple AI app in 3 days. For a buyer he already knew. And cashed it in for an easy $3k.

Clean, fast, simple.

Obviously he could have also built it up and gone for MRR (monthly recurring revenue) but a clean sale for $3k is still solid work for 10-15 hours work.

For our first AI app we want this level of focus and precision.

"But Kyle," I hear you say, "my idea has so many potential features! My users will need them all!"

Will they though? Nah.

Let me share another pattern I've noticed: the most successful AI tools in my network aren't the ones with the most features. They're the ones that do one thing so well that people are willing to pay for it even though it's "just" one thing.

Let's strip your idea down to its core. Here's your first prompt:

You are a product strategist specializing in MVP development. Help me identify the smallest valuable version of these AI solutions.

My ideas: [Your filtered ideas here]

For each idea, define:
1. The core problem being solved
2. The simplest possible solution
3. What can be eliminated while still solving the core problem
4. What is must-have vs nice-to-have
5. How we could validate this with a single feature

Run this first. Look at your stripped-down solutions. Now, let's rate them and create clear taglines:

You are a product strategist and pitch expert. Rate these AI solution ideas from simplest to most complex to build, and create a clear "high concept" tagline for each.

My ideas: [Your stripped-down solutions]

For each idea:
1. Rate complexity (1-10, where 1 is simplest)
2. Write a single-sentence tagline that combines [what it does] + [for who]
3. Highlight any dependencies or technical requirements

Order them from simplest to most complex to build.

Now, about those taglines - ever heard of "high concept" films? Movies like "Twins" (Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito as twins separated at birth) or "Sharknado" (tornado... but with sharks).

High concept in action.

The beauty of high concept is that you instantly get it. No explanation needed. One line tells you everything.

That's what we're looking for in our AI tool taglines. Not: "An advanced machine learning system leveraging natural language processing to optimise content strategy through multi-platform analysis". With a tagline like that you are already dead.

Instead we want something like: "YouTube transcripts to Twitter threads, automatically"

If you can't explain your MVP in a "Snakes on a Plane" level of clarity, you're probably trying to do too much.

Here's what good high-concept AI tool pitches look like:

• "Converts messy Google Analytics exports into clean client reports"

• "Turns your Zoom sales calls into ready-to-send proposals"

• "Makes your job listings sound less boring"

Look at your list of ideas, now ranked from simple to complex. Look at their high-concept taglines.

The ones that are:

• Rated simplest (1-3 complexity)

• Have taglines you can say in one breath

• Make people go "oh, I get it" instantly

These are your potential MVPs.

Pick the simplest one that still solves a real problem. The one you could explain to your nan.

The one that makes you think "is this too simple?" That's your winner.

Next up, we're taking this stripped-down, crystal-clear idea and turning it into a proper project brief. We'll define exactly what we're building, who it's for, and how we'll get it into their hands.

But for now, focus on finding that perfect mix of simple and valuable. Remember: Complexity is the enemy of execution.

PS. If you’ve got this far we’re exploring launching a 30 Day AI Entrepreneurship Accelerator where we:

1. Hone a business idea

2. Build a focused AI tool

3. Test and refine the tool

4. Market and launch

Course, community and live sessions.
