The distribution-as-moat point is right, but I'd push further: naming your AI tool (Stanley) is doing more work than people realize. It turns a workflow into a character your audience can root for, which is half of why build-in-public content compounds instead of just accumulating views. Curious how much of Stanley's output you're publishing raw versus editing — that line is where most people either build trust or lose it.

Not fully sold on the moat thing. I posted about Atlas Detailing for a while and it did almost nothing. What actually built trust was the same guys seeing my work in person every week. The posts were just the receipt.
