Developers build great things, but nobody knows. Writing social media posts about your work feels like a job on top of a job - and most devs give up after two weeks. ShipMate closes that gap: log what you shipped in 30 seconds, and AI generates platform-specific posts in your exact writing voice. You review and approve. It sounds like you wrote it, not ChatGPT.

Co-founders, ShipMate
We built ShipMate because we kept shipping things nobody knew about. Writing a LinkedIn post after a long day of coding felt impossible - even though we had interesting work to share.
The insight was simple: the bottleneck isn't creativity, it's activation energy. If we could reduce logging to 30 seconds and make the output actually sound like us, building in public becomes sustainable.
ShipMate is bootstrapped and product-led. We use it ourselves every day. Every feature exists because we needed it.
Early users appreciate ShipMate for its style training accuracy, the low-friction log flow, and the desktop menu bar app. The review-and-approve flow is consistently called out as satisfying to use. Users value that it never auto-posts. The GitHub integration is a standout feature for devs who want zero-effort content sourcing.

Finally - shipping in public without the pain
I've shipped 4 features in the last 2 weeks and had LinkedIn posts ready for all of them in under 5 minutes each. The style training actually works - it sounds like me, not ChatGPT. The desktop menu bar app is the killer feature. I just log from my menu bar and the posts are ready when I open the web app.
The review flow is genuinely satisfying
Approve, reject, edit inline - takes 30 seconds per post. I connected my X account for style import and it nailed my tone on the first batch. Finally have a system for building in public without it feeling like a second job.
Solid tool, GitHub auto-import is a game changer
The GitHub integration picks up my commits and turns them into content ideas automatically. I barely have to log manually anymore. Would love more platform integrations (Threads, Bluesky) but the core workflow is excellent.
