title: I Vibecoded This Feature Using Codex
description: >-
  Senior editor Jack Cheng wanted paid Every subscribers to be able to share
  full articles with anyone. The feature wasn’t high enough on the roadmap to
  ask an engineer to build it, so he researched the idea, pointed Codex at
  Every’s codebase, and shipped it himself. Jack joins Austin Tedesco and Kate
  Lee to walk through the research, internal buy-in, guardrails, implementation,
  and analytics behind gift links. They also explain how AI coding tools let
  editorial and growth teams test more ideas without pulling engineers away from
  larger projects. Every is the most AI-native startup on the internet. Through
  ideas, software and education, subscribers get the tools to work at the
  frontier of AI. Start your free trial today:
