Hi,

Almost a year ago, I built Seslio using Replit & GPT-4 (and various iterations of it)—a text-to-podcast converter. A 100-year-old Turkish newspaper has been using it for months with almost no issues, which has been great.

Over the past several weeks, I’ve been working on a new product: robot.seslio.com—again using Replit and Claude (along with multiple instances of o1). At first glance, it looks like an AI chatbot, but I have much bigger plans for it. You can test it on our first client’s website: baruthotels.com.

It’s a serious product with extensive backend logic, customizations, reports, and more. To be honest, I can’t believe I built it alone in such a little time—it would normally take months with a full development team. As a computer engineer with experience at companies like SONY, I know how challenging these kinds of projects can be.

Any feedback is welcome!

If you’re curious about how to build production-ready systems—especially when AI doesn’t behave the way you want—just let me know. I might write a thread about it.

Best,
M.

Thanks! If things will go as planned (usually they don’t :sweat_smile:), it will be more impressive soon :crossed_fingers:

How long did it take you to use replit to build this. And what language did it use

I started the project in the first week of January I think. It uses React, Nodejs etc. - languages I’m not very familiar with.

But to be honest, it would be very difficult (maybe impossible) to build such a tool without understanding core programming concepts, software architecture etc. I think learning a programming language is useless now, but knowing core concepts is very important. Because AI is not very smart yet - it knows a lot, but it’s not so smart, and sometimes it makes unbelievably stupid mistakes. Understanding what a variable is, what a function is, what an API is, what a database is etc. is very very helpful.
