# AI use cases for GTM Cofounder (AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder) Repo: [AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder](https://github.com/AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder) | Use cases: 5 | Page: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/ The GTM Co-Founder is a set of open-source Agent Skills (MIT licensed) that help developer tool and AI product builders work out who their product is for, how to position it, how to get first users, launch, and price it. This file holds every use case of this repo. Each one starts with a "## " heading and ends with its URL. - Get a GTM diagnosis for your developer tool: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/get-gtm-diagnosis-for-dev-tool/ - Find the communities where your users already talk: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/find-where-your-users-already-talk/ - Plan your first 50 users and a launch: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/plan-first-users-and-launch/ - Set a price for your developer tool: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/set-price-for-dev-tool/ - Stress-test your GTM claims before you ship: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/aidevgtm-gtm-cofounder/stress-test-gtm-claims-before-shipping/ ## How to get a GTM diagnosis for your developer tool with GTM Cofounder Repo: [AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder](https://github.com/AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder) | Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 15 minutes | Basis: From the README Answer five questions and get one prioritized next move for your go-to-market. **Who it is for:** A technical founder with no funding or commercial co-founder who has shipped a developer tool or AI product and does not know what to do next for go-to-market. **The problem:** Generic AI advice repeats marketing tactics without knowing your product, so you cannot tell what to work on first. **The outcome:** A founder brief, a diagnosis of the GTM problem to work on now, a list of what to park, and a single next move. ### Steps 1. In your coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex), tell it: Install the skills from https://github.com/AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder and run 00-start-here with me. 2. Answer the five questions the agent asks, one at a time. 3. Tell the agent: Run research-the-market. 4. Tell the agent: Run 01-strategy-and-roadmap. 5. Read docs/gtm-cofounder/gtm-roadmap.md and pick the one Now move. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Install the skills from https://github.com/AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder and run 00-start-here for , then run 01-strategy-and-roadmap. Expected output: docs/gtm-cofounder/gtm-roadmap.md with one Now move, a Next list, and a Later list. Verify that the Now move names a specific piece of evidence to collect, not a list of marketing tactics. ``` ### Caveat The README says a no-coding-agent path works by pasting skill text into a chat, but research-the-market needs web search turned on to find the community and launch evidence it describes.

Clone the repo with: git clone https://github.com/AIDevGTM/gtm-cofounder.git (inferred, check the README) 2. Copy the skills into your agent's skills folder with: cp -r gtm-cofounder/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/ 3. Run 00-start-here with your agent so the founder brief exists. 4. Tell the agent: Run research-the-market. 5. Open docs/gtm-cofounder/market-research.md and check each finding's link before you act on it. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Run research-the-market in the gtm-cofounder skills for and . Expected output: docs/gtm-cofounder/market-research.md with linked communities ranked by fit and the rules each room has for self-promotion. Verify that every finding has a link and is tagged [researched], not treated as a real user statement. ``` ### Caveat Public evidence from research is marked as researched and is not a substitute for a real user telling you the problem, so the talk-to-users skill is still needed.

Tell your agent: Run 00-start-here with me if you have not done it yet. 2. Tell the agent: Run first-50-users. 3. Tell the agent: Run launch-it. 4. Ask the agent to list the one channel to try this week and why. 5. Check the plan against the Now move in docs/gtm-cofounder/gtm-roadmap.md before you post. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Run first-50-users and then launch-it in the gtm-cofounder skills for . Expected output: a short channel plan for the first 50 users and a launch checklist with one recommended channel. Verify that the plan matches the Now move in gtm-roadmap.md. ``` ### Caveat The README gives the skill names and triggers but does not describe specific launch channel results, so treat any channel outcome as something to test rather than a promise.

Make sure the founder brief exists by running 00-start-here. 2. Tell the agent: Run market-to-devs-sell-to-buyers. 3. Tell the agent: Run pricing. 4. Ask the agent to name the one piece of evidence it needs from real users before it commits to a number. 5. Record the decision in your roadmap. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Run pricing and market-to-devs-sell-to-buyers in the gtm-cofounder skills for . Expected output: a pricing recommendation with the reasoning and the evidence still missing. Verify that the recommendation names what real users need to confirm before the price is locked. ``` ### Caveat The README does not give pricing numbers or thresholds in the public text, so any figure the agent proposes is a starting hypothesis to test with buyers.

Paste your draft landing page or launch post into your agent. 2. Tell the agent: Run review-the-work on this draft. 3. Tell the agent: Run value-prop-that-converts on the draft. 4. Remove or rewrite each claim the review flags as unprovable. 5. Re-run review-the-work on the revised draft before you publish. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Run review-the-work and value-prop-that-converts in the gtm-cofounder skills on this draft for . Expected output: a list of flagged claims and a revised value prop. Verify that every remaining claim can be backed by something the user can check. ``` ### Caveat The review acts as a skeptic on your draft, but it does not replace testing the copy with real developers who did not write it.
