The 9-Step Protocol for Building With AI (Without Going Mad).
As discussed in the previous post, I was onto something. Something that could change how non-tech founders approach vibe coding. Long story short: For the past 1 year, I’ve been building with AI. Daily. Obsessively. Not chasing followers. Just chasing clarity. 👉 Can AI actually help non-tech founders build MVPs that don’t fall apart? So I tested. Spent $3K–4K on OpenAI, Claude, OpenRouter. Wrote 1000s of prompts. Built 10+ broken MVPs. Fixed them. Rebuilt them. Again. And again. And somewhere along the way... I cracked something. Because honestly? Vibe coding was next level. It wasn’t just hype, it worked. Way better than most no-code tools ever did. But… There was a hidden flaw. A flaw no one was talking about. 🤖 AI doesn’t take ownership. It doesn’t panic when your app crashes. It doesn’t ask, “Will this scale?” or “Should this even be built?” At best, it’ll say: “Sorry, my mistake.” But beyond that? It doesn’t care. And that’s not okay Because its “sorry” won’t heal your broken system. It won’t recover your lost months, lost money or lost customer trust. That’s when I decided I’m done with blind vibe coding. And I didn’t just want to rant about the problem… I wanted to fix it. And that’s when Crown Coding was born. 👑 Enter Crown Coding A structured framework for non-tech founders to build MVPs with AI, but with clarity, checkpoints, and control.

Inside 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠, I created a step-by-step protocol called 𝐕-𝐏𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐄: → Vision → Product → Reasoned Architecture → Agent Plan → Coding Assistant → Tasks → Integration/Tests → Code Control → Errors/Debug And mind you--> You don’t need to learn code. But you do need to think in systems. Otherwise, you’re just chasing outputs, not building products. 📹 Soon, I’ll be sharing a detailed fundamentals video on my YouTube channel And after that, a full MVP build series using Crown Coding, designed specifically for non-tech founders. 👉 Follow along if you’re a non-tech founder who wants to build with AI responsibly, with clarity and control.

Stop Building. Start Flirting (With the Market).
Most startups die the moment the founder says, 'Let's start coding.'
We love the dopamine rush of starting a new project. But 'Good idea, let’s build it' is a trap. After burying multiple startups that had perfect code but zero users, I realized that building without validation is just expensive therapy. Stop guessing. Start filtering.
