Transcript

Your App = AI Slop. Tell me you coded your app if you have any of these. That purple gradient is the easiest tell. For example, it's all over this site. I don't even have to say anything. Next, remove all M-dashes. AI uses these all over the place when they write text, so remove it. Remove it from the website entirely. You don't want it. Next up, make sure your site looks good on mobile, too. If your app looks like this on mobile and cuts off right here, people can tell that you Vibe Coded it. Next up on the landing page, AI loves putting these little badges above the main text. Remove that badge. That's a Vibe Code giveaway. And lastly, if the footer of your website has no legal pages like a terms of service or privacy policy, then you Vibe Coded it. Does your app have any of these? Comment down below.
