50 headline prompts that don't sound like AI wrote them

A developer launched a $3 product called 'headlines-no-ai-wrote' on Gumroad, offering 50 headline prompts in a single markdown file and JSON mirror. The project is part of a 'first $100' experiment where the developer ships daily updates and shares learnings, including sending the full prompts to five newsletter-writer friends instead of mass marketing.

Aimed at fellow indie hackers: I'm running a "first $100" experiment. One pack, one platform, full learnings shipped. Here's what worked, what flopped, and what I changed. Built headlines-no-ai-wrote , $3, single markdown file + JSON mirror. Stack: Gumroad for checkout, just markdown for delivery. Why markdown? Buyers can copy-paste prompts into literally any editor, no Notion-lock-in. post reddit.md . Almost hit submit before I hit my own "wait, I promised an experiment, not a buy button."I sent the full 50 not the trimmed 10 to 5 newsletter-writer friends with one line: "yo bro, take it, no ask." Don't ship to millions, ship to 5. Trying Show HN with a tight "here's what worked, here's what didn't" framing. If 0 sales after Day 7, the lesson is "Reddit can't find you from zero". Move 2 = HN. I post the daily update as part of an experiment to get to first $100 with a public ship log. Tiny wins, real numbers. If you do this too — link me up in the comments. — Cross-post: this is part of an automated indie experiment; the only human-written bits are the prompts and the structure.
