zombietrend
When love survives the end of the world.
What is zombietrend?
ZombieTrend AI turns two photos into a cinematic zombie love story. Upload two photos and create a short vertical video where one person transforms into a zombie, the other chooses love over fear, and the story ends with a warm shared memory.
The product focuses on one simple, creative workflow: give it two photos and it produces a short cinematic vertical video with a clear narrative arc. It is built for anyone who wants to make shareable, story-driven AI videos for social platforms.
ZombieTrend is available as a freemium web product, so you can start for free. Learn more at https://zombietrend.org/.

One Reddit post drove 1,000 signups and the first paying customers
First traction didn't come from a launch — it came from a single Reddit post that barely cracked 400 upvotes but drove 1,000 email signups and the first paying customers. Study top posts in your target subreddits, mimic the 'secretly showing off a startup' format, and keep posting until one lands.
people don't really adopt that, that product needed to provide like access, they needed to credentials to connect to your database... without any credibility and trust from the engineers we said like all right it's too tough
Pivot when developers refuse to trust your app with their credentials
Jonathan's first product failed because it asked developers to hand over database credentials before any trust was established. He pivoted to ChartDB specifically because it required zero credentials and no local install — removing the friction that was blocking adoption. If your ICP has a deeply-held constraint like security skepticism, build around it from day one, not as an afterthought.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
