How do I turn a GitHub repo into a product?
A repo becomes a product the moment a stranger can tell what it does without reading the code. Write the one-liner, the README, and the landing page for buyers, not contributors. The machine at visualizevalue.com reads your repo and drafts all three, free.
The gap between "works on my machine" and "someone pays for this" is not more features. It's translation. Contributors want architecture and API surface. Buyers want to know what problem dies and how fast.
Start with the sentence: what it does, for whom, instead of what. Then the README opens with that sentence, shows it working, and saves the install flags for later. Then a landing page that makes the same argument to people who will never open GitHub.
Building is no longer the moat. Anyone can ship a repo this year. The repo that wins is the one that explains itself.
Paste the repo URL at https://visualizevalue.com (private repos work) and the machine reads the README and writes the launch package: one-liner, landing page, explanation, posts, and the prompts your coding agent can run to apply it.
