Description
This is a Social Networking event with a Fireside Chat with Rye Smith, Claude Code Ambasador, & Founder of Spruik
Rye's passion for Tech and digital started at Age 11, when he started to code with HTML and CSS, to be able to edit his profile on Neopets
Neopets was a free-to-play virtual pet browser game.
It featured mini-games, events, contests, digital food, items, appearance customization, PvP & PvE battles, guilds, social messaging, message boards, virtual currencies, and a market for buying, selling & trading items.
In 1999 at Age 12, Rye landed his First paid web design client for $600 ( ≈$1300 today)
In 2015 he started Appcelerate, which provided mobile and web development services, which he later sold in August 2017 to Them Advertising
In 2020 he launched YourLocal, a food delivery and takeaway app trying to compete with the big names during Covid
After that, Rye has gone on to create a bunch of different products and startups
Rye's current work is at Spruik Digital, where he has helped 500+ companies with AI and Data Driven Digital Marketing solutions, with activities ranging from AI SEO to Digital Ads, AI Automation and Social Media,
generating $3 Million+ in Revenue to date.
He is one of two Claude Ambassadors in Australia,
and recently ran Claude Impact Lab helping people launch impactful ideas with AI in just a day.
His hobby game project Manager11 is a great example of what can be made 100% with AI.
