Why Relying on AI Alone Can Break Your Product (and What to Do Instead) With the fast-moving development landscape today, AI tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are being heralded as a game-changer in coding productivity. They auto-complete functions, generate test scripts, and even scaffold entire apps in minutes. Sounds amazing, right? But here is […]
The Danger of AI-Generated Code Without a Technical Review AI-powered coding tools such as GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are rapidly changing the way we write software programs. They make developers more productive, speed up prototyping, and enable startups to get to minimum viable products faster. Here’s a wake-up call: AI-generated code is not inherently reliable, […]
The Illusion of AI-Perfect Code Let’s start with the dream: A founder spins up an MVP using an AI-powered coding assistant. Features get built in hours, not weeks. The UI looks sharp and the API endpoints hum along in staging. Then comes launch – and everything falls apart. Why? Because AI doesn’t understand context. It […]
The Problem: AI Speeds Up Development… and Mistakes AI-powered tools promise speed, but there is also a dark side: speed over scrutiny. From non-technical founders down to junior devs who use AI to shortcut their way into building features faster, they often skip necessary steps of validation, secure coding practices, or proper testing. Here is […]
Why AI-Generated Code is a Risk-especially for Startups AI tools don’t understand your business logic. They predict code based on patterns, not product goals. That’s great for boilerplate code – but dangerous for anything nuanced. Most AI-generated bugs don’t show up right away. They pass basic tests and look fine on the surface. But they […]
The AI Hype Trap The dream is seductive: write a few prompts, generate code instantly, and launch your product in days. And it works – to a point. You get: • Quick proof of concept • Impressive visuals to early stakeholders • Functionality demos for investors or pitch decks But beneath the surface? A shaky […]
Understanding the Silent Threat Non-technical founders often rely heavily on developers, whether freelance, in-house, or outsourced, to make the magic happen. But without the ability to evaluate what’s under the hood, you’re just trusting that your product is being built to scale, stay secure, and handle growth. Too often, it isn’t. The silent threat comes […]
The Hype (and Risk) of AI-Driven Development AI Coding Tools Promise Speed, Automation, and Reduced Dev Costs. To early-stage founders and particularly non-technical ones, tools like ChatGPT and Copilot seem like magic. You type what you need, and boom – code appears. But that code? It’s often: • Poorly structured • Lacking context • Missing […]
Why Beta Testing Matters Even the best software development teams can’t anticipate everything. Beta testing reveals what analytics and automated testing won’t: • App crashes on older devices • Confusing navigation flows • Features users simply don’t understand • Edge-case scenarios that break the experience At Appricotsoft, we create software we can be proud of, […]
Why Your Business Should Act Now In October 2025, OpenAI launched Apps in ChatGPT and the Apps SDK, so companies can bring their own tools and services directly into the ChatGPT interface. Users will be able to discover your app through natural conversation and use it without leaving the chat. For business, digital products and […]
Why cross-browser compatibility still matters in 2025 Even in a world where Chrome is the market leader by a long shot, browser diversity is far from dead. Users will use web applications in Safari, Firefox, Edge, and even on legacy versions of Internet Explorer. Yes, really-especially in large corporate environments. Each browser shows code differently […]
Why Push Notifications Matter Push notifications are short, timely messages sent directly to a user’s device—even when they’re not actively using your app. Used properly, they can: • Increase user engagement by bringing people back into your app. • Drive specific behaviors like completing a booking or checking out a cart. • Improve retention by […]
