Captain's log-
Building the Spyrate landing page for pricing intelligence
What I worked on today
- Wrapped up the Spyrate.io landing page. Kept it basic, but it feels like a solid starting point.
- Tested AI-generated UI with
v0.dev
, but it didn’t meet expectations. Switched back to Tailwind UI for a cleaner, more controlled build.
- Focused on clear, simple copy with just enough pirate references to give it personality.
Features section
- Spyglass monitoring – Automated competitor price tracking and online price monitoring
- Captain’s log – Change history for pricing intelligence tools
- Signal flares – Instant price change alerts for tracking market fluctuations
Kept the feature set concise and focused on clarity.
