Let AI test your marketing · no code

Most marketing is a guess.

Autoresearch Playbook puts AI to work testing your cold emails, landing pages, and prices — it keeps the versions that win and drops the rest. Higher conversions, without the expensive guesswork.

The hidden cost of autopilot: run these loops unattended on a paid AI and the per-token bill is ~$15 a night — about $450/month run nightly. The same prompt, copy, and SEO loops run on your own computer for $0.

Stop guessing what works

Testing your marketing shouldn't take a team you don't have.

Doing it by hand

Write a subject line. Ship it. Hope. Or pay thousands a year for an enterprise testing suite built for big teams — and still do the work yourself.

  • Guesswork dressed up as a "strategy"
  • $30k/yr tools like VWO & Optimizely
  • Hours of manual A/B busywork
With the loop

Hand the AI one thing to test and one metric to chase. It writes versions, tests them against real conversions, keeps the winner and reverts the rest — while you sleep.

  • A one-time $97 toolkit, not a subscription
  • Runs for $0 on your own computer
  • Scored on real outcomes, not raw clicks
How it works

Try a change. Keep it if it won.

It's the open-source idea the AI researcher Andrej Karpathy shared for free (88,000+ GitHub stars), packaged for marketing: try a change, see if it did better, keep it if it won, undo it if it lost — then try again.

01Pick

Pick what to test

One thing at a time — a cold-email subject, a headline, a price. Set the single metric that means "better" (replies, opt-ins, sales).

02Try

Let the AI try versions

It generates variations, runs them against real outcomes, and scores each one — never against raw visitor counts, only results that matter.

03Keep

Keep the winner

Winners are promoted, losers reverted automatically — a ratchet that only moves forward. Then it goes again, while you sleep.

Run it through an AI tool you already use — Claude Code or Cursor — or fully local on Ollama. No GPU, no PyTorch, no coding.

What's inside

Twelve fill-in-the-blank templates.

Each one is a ready-to-run instruction set for a real marketing job. Copy it, fill in your numbers, hand it to your AI — and it runs the loop. Grouped across the funnel:

Acquisition
  • Cold-email subjects
    more positive replies
  • Ad headlines & hooks
    lower cost per acquisition
  • Lead magnets
    higher email opt-in rate
  • Titles & meta
    more organic clicks · runs $0 local
Conversion
  • Landing-page headlines
    higher conversion rate
  • Pricing pages
    revenue per visitor · 14-day guard
  • Checkout
    fewer abandoned carts
  • Webinar signups
    higher registration rate
Retention & expansion
  • Onboarding emails
    7-day activation rate
  • Email sequences
    completion & reply rate
  • Trial → paid
    higher conversion to paid
  • Referrals
    more referrals per customer
A sample run

One subject line, run through the loop.

You fill in your goal, your baseline, and your metric. The AI does the rest — one variable, scored on real replies, winner kept.

Illustrative run — your numbers, your copy.

cold-email-subject-optimizer complete
Goal

Lift the positive-reply rate on my cold-email subject line. One metric: replies. Keep it under 8 words.

Baseline set— your current subject, current reply rate
12 versions tried— one variable changed each time
Scored on real replies— not opens, not guesses
Winner kept, rest reverted— logged to experiment_log.jsonl
Result

The loop promotes the highest-reply subject and discards the losers — so the version you ship is the one that earned it, not the one you happened to like. A cost guard caps any API spend before it starts.

Questions

Before you buy.

What if I'm not technical at all?

That's exactly who this is for. Everything is plain English, walked through step by step. You fill in templates with your own details — if you can fill out a form, you have every skill you need.

Do I need a GPU or to write code?

No GPU, no PyTorch, no coding. (The GPU requirement is for Karpathy's original ML project — this applies the same loop to marketing.) You run it through an AI tool you already use, like Claude Code or Cursor, or fully local with Ollama.

What does it cost to run?

Free if you run it locally on your own computer with Ollama. If you'd rather use a paid AI for higher-confidence scoring, it's roughly $20 a month — and every template has a hard cost cap so you never get a surprise bill. The guide shows you both ways.

Isn't this just prompts I could find free?

No. Free prompts are one-off guesses. This is a system — fill-in-the-blank templates, a 28-page guide, and a testing loop that keeps the winners and reverts the losers automatically. It's a repeatable process, not a lucky paste.

How is it delivered, and what if it's not for me?

Instant download on Gumroad right after checkout — yours forever, with free updates. And it's backed by a 14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked.

Is this affiliated with Andrej Karpathy?

No. "Autoresearch" is his open-source idea, shared freely. This product is independently created and is not endorsed by or affiliated with Andrej Karpathy.
