I use AIFred to keep together projects, technical notes, ideas, and short updates from work around AI, websites, and online products.
I recently rebuilt my travel blog using AI so that I could have an admin interface tailored exactly to my needs. AI helps me with grammar and spelling checks, translation into English, and I’m also considering adding image editing functionality.
An invoicing system for freelancers. A system I created after Fakturoid told me they would raise my subscription to triple the price. I love Fakturoid, but I didn’t want to pay that much. So now I pay nothing, and my solution does what Fakturoid did for me, plus a few extra things. Easy invoice creation, invoice management, client lookup using only company ID, recurring invoices.
An online tool that performs a free audit of any website from the perspective of technical SEO, GEO (visibility and citability for AI bots), and accessibility, so that the website can be used by people with various limitations.
My long-standing brand Czech Th!s, which I use for my coding work, was due for a refresh and a shift in focus. Coding is slowly turning into web project architecture, and it’s important to keep up.
A simple online application where you can save AI prompts that you use often or want to keep so you can try them in the future. In short, your personal prompt database. It is free for everyone to use.
Because I travel a lot around the world and sometimes stay in a given place for a month, sometimes two or three, I don’t need to learn the language of the country in a way that would let me speak it fluently. I need polite phrases more. In most cases there are about 4–5 of them that keep repeating — greeting, thanking, saying goodbye. For example, I have never once in my life asked in a country where the train station is or what time it is. Those are examples of phrases that seem important, but in reality are not. So what phrases are important?
I felt the need to create a hub for the projects I build with AI. And also a place to store ideas I want to work on later. Traditionally, WordPress would be used for this, but I wanted to create a CMS with AI as well so I could see what the pitfalls are. It’s a tough nut to crack, I can tell you that.
I bought various cryptos on different platforms, and sometimes even the same cryptos. Tracking their value and where they were held was complicated, so I created a tool that lets me keep an eye on it without forcing me to do anything too complicated. Recently, I also added a stock portfolio with charts, tips on current promotions, and more. It keeps growing.
When vibe coding, if you let AI too much freedom in choosing the design, all websites end up looking the same. I decided to dive a bit deeper into different graphic and UI styles and, at the same time, build a small app that lets you combine various styles and choose colors, typography... In just a few clicks, a person could select roughly the style that feels closest to them. This generates a link that gets sent to my email, and thanks to it the app outputs a prompt for AI with the specification of the chosen style.
I’ve always been drawn to art, but I don’t understand it very well. At the same time, I really enjoy the website https://artvee.com/, where there is a lot to discover about all kinds of painters and artists, mostly from history. When I was browsing Alfons Mucha’s images, I felt the urge to dive deeper into those works, and that’s how this project came to be.
You enter where you are and add other places where you want to find out what time it is compared to where you are at specific times.
A simple calendar system I created when I wanted to visually display my six-month plan for digital nomadism across Southeast Asia.
I often receive materials in Word. If you use CTRL+C / V, for example into the Shoptet system, it gets copied with a lot of Word clutter. So I made a small app that turns Word into proper HTML code and extracts all images from Word so I can insert them into the article.
An alternative to WordPress, which is unnecessarily complex. Every project is different, and each needs to manage different things. Plus, a custom CMS will not include unnecessary extra libraries, which speeds up both administration and website loading.
It would be interesting to have a tool similar to Claude Design within an already built and running website. On the frontend, a user could simply click on text and edit it. Or they could select an element and tell the AI chat what they would like to change. The classic client request, “I need the logo 2 cm bigger,” could suddenly be handled by AI.
Over the course of a career, a person gathers a lot of experience, mainly through the work they do for a living. But that does not always go hand in hand with what they would actually enjoy doing. For example, I enjoy photography, flying drones, and making videos, but I do not have enough experience for it to become my job — for someone to pay me for it. I would like a place where I could present what I can do, and especially what I would like to do if I could devote more time to it.
Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means something like a “reason to live” or a “reason to get up in the morning.” It is not just about career; in a broader sense, it is what gives your life value, joy, and meaning — work, relationships, hobbies, or even small everyday things. In the West, ikigai is often explained as the intersection of four things: what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. This would work well as an online quiz.
Lately, I’ve been most pleased with an extension I created for VS Code with the help of AI. Using the built-in Git feature, it checks my changed files, and before committing the changes I can upload all modified files to the project’s FTP with one button. I was struggling with Webglobe hosting, which doesn’t support GitHub Actions, so I couldn’t do it through GitHub. This solution makes my life extremely easy. It’s great. What surprised me is that the extension is just a few lines of code. Perfect.
Claude and I spent almost a month working hard on a new version of Andy’s travelogues. It’s interesting that even though I enjoy writing, I enjoy building websites around it even more. And the new version, besides being completely written with AI, can do things in the background that I could never have imagined on WordPress before. A lot of things that look complicated to manage on the website are actually just one click in the admin. For example, generating a route for the animated map visualization is so easy to manage and enter destinations for that I can’t wait to start writing new stories again.
The WordPress editorial system made sense because of its complexity. But it is now known that this is also its biggest drawback. Building a custom editorial system with AI is now a great way to have a tool you enjoy using. Until now, I have always prepared an editorial system for each project from scratch, over and over again. Yet the core could stay the same, saving tokens and repeated fine-tuning for every project. Only the custom features would need to be handled. I’m working on it.
Because the AI model Claude Fable was able to create some pretty interesting designs, I spent the last 2–3 weeks doing almost nothing but redesigning all kinds of projects. One of them is AIFred. It is still a work in progress, but already live. I also redesigned my classic website Czech Th!s; Andy’s travelogues and the website about Alfons Mucha are also in progress. A web project called Noma People was created as well, along with a microsite with the Plzeň branch. And another thing worth noting is the reporting tool for website audits. Fable was/is time-limited, and that’s when productivity goes up :-)
I was struck by how many audit tools are being created right now, and I thought I’d try building one myself. I also wanted one that nobody would have to pay for. And one that wouldn’t throw up an exclamation mark for every little thing, scaring people into thinking they need to rebuild their entire website immediately. Try yourself: https://report.czech-this.com/
With the payment gateway now in place, the product can finally be used and paid for. That is why the project needed to run on its own domain, which is now https://fakturhuko.cz/
A few days ago (around September 8), one of Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon (a researcher) left the company and claimed that AI companies are not doing enough to prevent AI from exterminating us in the next decade. But why would it want to exterminate us?
ReadAI can now design a website in minutes. The problem is that without clear direction, it often produces a safe, interchangeable result: a purple gradient, three identical cards, rounded corners, a huge headline, and a few animations “for effect.” AI is not a bad designer. It just guesses what you want by default. The good news: generic design is not an inevitable result of using AI. You just need to change how you work. Don’t ask it to “make a modern landing page”; give it context, constraints, and feedback.
ReadI use a lot of tokens and often end up in a situation with Claude AI where I have to wait several hours before I’m allowed to work again. In those free moments, I often like to do something offline or try new things, such as installing Ollama. Software that can run an AI model locally on your computer.
