Level 1 Ready
Can I make a site with AI that makes money, and can I help a group of people at the same time?
What it is
A site that helps small businesses prepare for CMMC Level 1, the cybersecurity certification required to work with the U.S. Department of Defense. It walks them through a questionnaire and checks whether they have everything needed to submit. It’s a smarter checklist, not an approval.
Why I built it
I challenged myself to find a real, underserved problem and see if I could build something people would pay for within a week or two, using Claude.
What I learned
How to use Claude to evaluate a business opportunity, including competitors, audience size, transaction volume, and how easily someone could copy it. It’s live and has made money. Not a lot, but it achieved the goal.
