I Built My First AI-Powered MVP — Here’s What It Does and How I Made It

Over the last 5 days, I challenged myself to create my first AI-powered MVP. The goal? To help people explore their next career or entrepreneurial path with the help of smart, personalized insights — in minutes.

The result is live now at gottawinit.com/pathfinder. It’s called the Gotta Win It Pathfinder, and it’s my way of helping others get unstuck and move forward with purpose.

💡 What It Does
The Pathfinder takes a few simple inputs — your experience, passions, and current goals — and uses AI to generate a personalized roadmap. Within minutes, a custom email arrives with specific ideas, industries, and next-step suggestions tailored to what you enter.

🚀 How I Built It

  • I used Make.com to wire everything together
  • Airtable became my backend for storing inputs
  • ChatGPT provides the brainpower behind the personalized responses
  • Softr Studio for the form and frontend logic
  • The form is embedded on my WordPress site

I estimate about 40 human hours over 5 days went into this, working solo. That includes concept, flow design, prompt engineering, form wiring, AI testing, UX editing, email formatting, and publishing.

🧠 Why I Did It
I’ve always believed in the power of reinvention. After launching my Gotta Win It brand, I knew I wanted to give others a tool that could spark their next move. AI made this possible — and I built it faster than I ever could have imagined.

The MVP is live and running. No cost. No catch. Just an inspiring tool to help you move forward.
