Founder Karthik Puvvada (@thisiskp) shares how his Grok-powered AI bot rebuilt his personal site on Netlify with Astro in 5 minutes, moving nearly 83 essays off a $10/month Super.so + Notion setup:
- Step 1 – Export content to Markdown files, which Astro reads out of the box.
- Step 2 – Give the agent one clear brief: "Rebuild this site with Astro. One page per essay. Keep every URL exactly the same. Show me a list of anything you couldn't move."
- Step 3 – Push to GitHub, connect Netlify: every push deploys, every PR gets a Deploy Preview; add redirects if URLs change.
- Step 4 – Point your domain at Netlify and cancel the old plan: $120/year back, and he owns every file.
