Introduction

Virality isn't just luck - it's a system. This guide shows how SaaS founders can design repeatable viral loops using AI prompts.

What's the problem it solves?

Many startups try to grow by adding more ads or features, but they miss the power of virality. They don’t have built-in ways for users to invite others, share results, or grow the product on its own. This guide shows how to create smart viral loops, not just hope for shares.

Quick Summary

Ayush breaks down how virality has evolved in 2025. It’s no longer just share buttons or referral codes - now it's AI-powered content, multiplayer experiences, embedded widgets, and social triggers like FOMO and social proof. Great products now grow through user interaction and network behavior, not just marketing.

To help founders actually build this in, he provides a full set of AI prompts: from high-level product audits to technical roadmaps and viral video ideas. These prompts guide you through analyzing your product’s viral potential, designing in-product loops, building sharing flows, and even crafting viral content for social platforms. Whether you’re early-stage or scaling, the system helps you plug virality directly into your product and growth motion.

The key shift: instead of using AI just to write content, you now use it to engineer growth - through structured experiments, referral logic, loop mapping, and emotional hooks that spread.

Key Takeaways

• Virality now includes collaborative editing, AI-generated content, auto-sharing triggers, and game mechanics
• You can plan virality like a feature - not a fluke - using structured prompts
• Key areas to assess: collaborative value, shareability, user flow touchpoints, and referral incentives
• AI tools can help write scripts, design loops, suggest metrics, and optimize viral flows
