How to launch and promote an app you built with AI

Building an app with an AI coding agent can take an afternoon. Getting people to see it takes a plan. This guide is a checklist you can follow with any hosting service; where heremyapp does a step for you, it says so.

1. Make one page that explains the app

People decide in seconds, so the page should answer three questions at the top: what it is, who it is for, and how to get it.

• App name, icon and one sentence about the problem it solves
• Three to six features with screenshots (and a short video if it helps)
• One clear button: download, sign up or open the app
• Version, requirements (for example the minimum macOS version) and release notes
• How to contact you, and a privacy policy and terms of use

With heremyapp, your coding agent writes or updates this page and publishes it in one step at a permanent link (app landing page).

2. Make the link look good when shared

Most launches happen in chats and feeds, where a bare link gets ignored. Before posting:

• Add link previews: og:title, og:description, a 1200×630 og:image and twitter:card
• Use a favicon and an app icon so the tab and bookmarks look finished
• Test the link by pasting it into a chat with yourself (KakaoTalk, Slack, Discord, X)

heremyapp checks these on every upload and tells the agent what is missing.

3. Make it findable by search engines and AI assistants

AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini answer "what tool should I use" questions from search results and pages that explain things clearly.

• Submit your sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools (ChatGPT search and Copilot use Bing). In Korea, also register with Naver Search Advisor.
• Write the page in plain language that matches how people ask: "a Mac app that does X", not only your brand name.
• Add a short FAQ and structured data (JSON-LD SoftwareApplication) so answers can quote you accurately.
• Add an llms.txt file at the site root: a plain Markdown summary of the product for AI assistants.
• Publish in English and in your own language; assistants answer in the language of the question.

4. Share it where your users already are

Post once, with care, in places that welcome new projects. Describe the problem you solved, show it working, and reply to every comment.

5. Measure and keep shipping

• Watch downloads and visits, and note which posts brought people in.
• Ship small updates with release notes; each one is a new reason to share.
• Ask early users for one sentence of feedback and quote it on the page (with permission).

heremyapp counts installer downloads per version and keeps a version history for every page, so the agent can tell you what changed and how many people downloaded each release.

FAQ

What is the easiest way to promote an app I built with AI?

Publish one clear landing page with link previews at a permanent link, submit it to search engines, then share it once in communities where your users are, such as Product Hunt, Hacker News, Reddit, GeekNews or Disquiet. heremyapp handles the page, link previews and download link for you.

Does heremyapp promote my app for me?

No. heremyapp makes the page and download link you share and checks that they are ready for sharing and search. It does not buy ads or list your app in a directory.

Do I need my own website or domain to launch?

No. A permanent link such as heremyapp.com/you/your-app is enough to share and to submit to communities.
