Do this to build a $100k/mo chrome extension using AI (Cursor AI, Claude)

Synopsis

Ras Mic demos building a Chrome extension factory: nine ways to find ideas (GitHub issue mining, AI-ifying top extensions, Product Hunt reverse engineering, Reddit pain points, Chrome Web Store reviews, API changelogs, YouTube comment scraping, niche subreddits, SaaS feature requests), then walks through building a scraper extension with Claude AI, debugging, testing across sites and publishing to the Web Store for a $5 fee. The thesis is one extension every few weeks, some hitting $100K/month.
