I built an AI code reviewer solo while working full-time — honest post-launch breakdown

After a few months of nights and weekends, I launched LearnCodeGuide(https://learncodeguide.com) — an AI tool that analyzes code and finds bugs, security vulnerabilities, and explains what the code does in plain English. Here's the honest breakdown 3 weeks in. What it does Paste or upload code Pick a mode: Debug, Security, Refactor, Explain, All-in-One Get exact line numbers, severity, and fix suggestions Optional second AI pass for higher confidence Supports JavaScript, Python, Java, TypeScript, C#, C++. The brutal reality after launch Week 1: Launched, posted on Hacker News, 0 upvotes. Posted on LinkedIn, 0 comments. Week 2: Dug into Google Search Console. Found 11 total clicks in 2 weeks. Dug deeper — found a critical canonical tag bug. ALL 75 article pages were pointing their canonical to the homepage. Google was treating every article as a duplicate. Invisible for weeks. Week 3: Fixed the canonical bug, redeployed, requested manual indexing for top pages. Still waiting for Google.
