😣 Explain like I'm 5 (Jargon Buster)
​

🏎️ A few weeks back we looked at how using AI to 20x software development speed has been nicknamed vibe coding. Well, the same acceleration is being applied to marketing so naturally everyone's calling it vibe marketing.

🦾 Vibe marketing is not about AI writing content like a social media intern, it's about getting AI to do the work of an entire marketing team. Brand strategy, competitor analysis, A/B testing, funnel optimisation all done by a single marketer effectively leveraging AI tools.

❓ Why it matters​
Vibe marketing is 20x faster and cheaper than traditional marketing. This enables rapid experimentation which is ultimately what separates the winners and losers.

🧠 Analogy:​
Think of AI as your chief of staff, not your intern. Don’t ask it to “write a caption.” Ask it: What’s broken in my funnel? What are my competitors doing better? Where are the hidden wins?

🤓 Here’s what’s cool:

• ​Competely monitors your competitors and conducts analysis on their marketing strategy
• Tools like Blaze, Canva, Descript can generate masses of content - social media posts, images, videos, blogs, websites - on autopilot
• Agent platforms like Manus, Taskade, and Lindy act like marketing colleagues who never sleep
• Automation platforms like Make, n8n and Zapier tie together all your existing tools and accounts to pass data between them
• Vibe coding tools like Bolt, Replit, and Lovable can create landing pages or mini apps-as-marketing in minutes (here's one we made)

Want more? We like The Boring Marketer for vibe marketing insights.

🦾 Pro tip

Loop your data back. Set up automations to regularly send stats (clicks, leads, sales) back into your AI tool of choice using Make or Zapier.

Ask three things:

1. “What’s winning?” (ads 20 % above average)
2. “Where do users drop?”
3. “Give three fast fixes.”

Get the AI to send you ideas to Slack or email. Act, repeat, improve daily.

Or want a quick win? Take a screenshot of your Google Search Console dashboard and ask ChatGPT to analyse it like a marketing exec.

⚠️ Caveat

So far our experiments with vibe coding and AI agents have found the reality to be lagging behind the hype, so it's likely vibe marketing will be in same boat for now. Expect this to change soon though.

🔊 On your radar

Keep your finger on the pulse of what's hot in the space right now

⭐️ Bolt.new released a serious upgrade to it design capabilities​

👉 This matters because: Achieving state-of-the-art design with NoCode builders is hard. Bolt's upgraded agent is trained to generate beautiful & functional apps in seconds, perfect for: - Landing pages - Dashboards - Multi-page apps. It works seamlessly for both web & native mobile apps. They had a $5K design competition and their showcases are 🔥.

⭐️ OpenAI's advanced image model is now available via API​

👉 This matters because: the model is insanely powerful (we did a good primer on what it can do in a previous issue) and with the API, you can do this at scale. Get inspired to create your own image wrappers and paid tools here and here. TIL it's also integrated natively in Figma.

⭐️ Bubble's Native App Builder is expected to launch on June 10th

👉 This matters because: a good chunk of our readers and attendees are Bubble.io fans who would love to see this live. It promises to allow offline functionality and also publication to the App Store via Bubble.​

Extra bytes

• ​Lovable 2.0 is here. Nothing earth-shattering, but includes a lighter rebrand, multiplayer (team accounts for us gen X'ers), better security and a chat agent.
• OpenAI's recent memory upgrade is a bit creepy and just wants to impress you rather than speak the truth.
• ​Toddle (designer<>engineer first NoCode builder) have rebranded to Nordcraft and are hosting a launch party in Copenhagen.

📍 Final thoughts

The post below came across our desk this week and it is a reminder for all the builders and creators out there that competition might be less than you think...

So we thought we'd think up a different angle and put OpenAI's image generator to the test again:

(there are some funny words in here; but it's impressive none-the-less)

With good vibes 👋
