Roast-Ergebnis für Linear Started this because I wanted it for my own Atelier. Any idea can be either "the next big thing" or "completely unnecessary", depending on who you ask. I found that fascinating. Then I realised it was a bit much for the Atelier and would actually be funnier applied to other projects. So: drop in a URL, the site gets analysed, exaggerated personas comment away. The Austria Edition now runs 6 personas in a linear flow, with scroll-triggered speech bubbles and a share card at the end. While building it, I realised both perspectives have to be cartoonishly over the top, the grumpy Viennese just as much as the Silicon Valley VC bro. I am not fully happy with the performance yet. Turns out satire and humour are hard to generate via LLM. Or it is my prompts.
Stack: TypeScript, headless browser for the site analysis, screenshot-based overlay. 6 LLM calls (5 AT personas + Chad), in parallel. Haiku 4.5 as the model, around 3 cents per run. The linear flow replaces the original multi-page concept, scroll-triggered speech bubbles take the place of separate persona pages. Annotations and share card as the final components.
