This Claude AI Digital +Download is Quietly Blowing Up on Etsy in 2026
You guys absolutely loved my last Claude article. We not only live on camera, but we also made three hot-selling digital downloads with Claude AI, and we gave you the digital downloads for free, and we gave you the prompt that took us two days to build completely for free. If you’re somebody who was reaching out to us saying that you didn’t get it, I promise you, they are in your email.
And please check your spam or promo folder and look for the keyword Claude.
A Brand New Untouched Product Opportunity
In this article, we’re taking it even further. So we’re talking about a brand new product type that is still in the digital space that you can make with Claude right now. It’s pretty much untouched, meaning there is literally no competition, and it’s even better than a digital download spreadsheet.
And I’ve got Luna Vega here today to help us teach you how to do this for yourself with Claude. And the product type that we are looking at is interactive web apps that you can actually sell on Etsy. So you can build the same concept as a digital planner or a wedding planning spreadsheet, but you can actually build it in a web app form, where customers can download it and use it directly from their desktop.
And this again is absolutely untouched. Spreadsheets are a little bit intimidating, and we’re already seeing them gain early traction with virtually no competition.
The Interactive Wedding Planner Web App
So the product opportunity that we’re focused on today is actually an interactive wedding planner web app.
This is different than an actual PDF. It’s going to end up looking something like this, where they’re going to actually get a file that they can download onto their desktop, and they actually can interact with the web app version instead of a spreadsheet to plan out their wedding.
So this is honestly the first listing that we were able to find that is this type of product at $8, and it’s only one month old, and it’s already had 13 sales with virtually no competition. So I thought this was a really, really unique new product that’s different than all the other digital downloads that will just, in general, help you stand out.
What Customers Actually Receive
This is the actual product, and now we’re going to go through step-by-step to show you what actually gets delivered when someone purchases this product.
Cool, we have Luna here with us today. She is the master of vibe coding. She’s been helping thousands of people do this and actually create more competitive digital downloads, like we already mentioned in the intro, because these are interactive web apps.
So we’re going to go step-by-step on how to actually do this.
Step 1: Setting Up Claude
Absolutely. So step one, we’re going to go ahead and download Claude. So this is Claude. You’re going to actually go to their website, and what you’re going to do is you’re going to go ahead and download it on your desktop.
This is key because otherwise you’re not going to have access to Claude’s code. The other thing worth noting as well is that you will need to get a subscription for Claude code because Claude code only works with the $20 plan. As you can see, the free plan does not include Claude’s code. So key, you will need to make that investment, but guys like Claude are such a powerful tool.
You’re not only going to use it for your Etsy listings, but you’re also going to use it for every other aspect of your business. So I really recommend the investment.
Step 2: Brainstorming with Claude Chat
Now, step two, we’re going to go ahead and chat with Claude to create our prompt based on our competitive research. Before we start building anything, we need to understand the difference between Claude chat and Claude code.
By the way, the only way you can get access to Claude’s code is by upgrading to their subscription, which is $20 a month. The reason I like to start with Claude chat is that this is where I’m going to essentially brainstorm to come up with what I’m going to build, and this is going to use me fewer credits than if I were to do that directly on Claude code.
So think of it as your chat assistant. Another thing worth noting is that I like to use the Haiku 4.5 model. This is the fastest and the one that’s going to give you the quickest answers. The reason again is because I’m being conscientious of how my credits are being used, and I want to use the majority of my credits in the actual build.
Crafting the Perfect Prompt
So when I get started, the prompt that I like to give it when I get started is to act as a senior product strategist, UX thinker, and front-end engineer. And I’m going to tell it that its job is to help me build a mini web app idea. I’m going to make sure that it’s a build-ready vibe coding prompt for a single-file app.
What does this mean? Meaning that I want to make sure that I have a file. It’s going to be an index HTML file. So I want to build a simple mini web app with a single index.html file. The data will be stored locally, so in the customer’s machine, right? Using JSON files.
You don’t need to worry about what that means, but that means that anytime we make an update, it’s going to be stored directly in the machine, and what we can do is that if we want to share the data across other computers or share with friends and family, we can do that by simply sharing the JSON file.
Now you don’t have to worry about the specifics, but this is a way to do it. So essentially, what happens is that the minute you have a database, you start incurring cost, and so we’re building a simple index file that people can directly open on their desktop, so they can pretty much edit what they need, and then they can share it across family members.
Now you have to remember as well that with a wedding budget planner, this is a type of work that you mainly do on a desktop, right? This is not something that you’re going to do on your mobile. So we’re making it available for folks to have the ability to essentially make those edits directly on their desktop, okay? So we also want it to be fully responsive, and we also want no login and no external dependencies.
Describing the Product Clearly
Now, another thing that I like to do is clearly describe the product in two to five sentences. We’re going to include the purpose of the app, who it is for, the main transformation and outcome, and the core problem. So in this case, I want to build a wedding budget planner for folks who are planning their wedding, and then instead of using an outdated and overwhelming Excel sheet, I want them to be able to clearly or easily track their guests, seating arrangements, gift list, venues, to-do list, and ceremony schedule.
Gathering References and Research
Now, what I like to do as well is I like to take screenshots of other successful Etsy listings. So we’re going to go on Etsy, and we’re going to do a quick search for wedding budget planners. And what I’m going to do is I’m actually going to take screenshots to understand what is included within these wedding planners because that’s going to help give Claude as much context as possible.
The more information we feed Claude, the better the output is going to be. Now, another thing that I like to do is go on Creative Fabrica, look for wedding budget planners, and look for other Excel sheets that I might find. Now this one is free. I’m going to go ahead and download it. Commercial use is allowed, and I’m going to go ahead and open this and change it around as I wish to have it so that I can feed this as well into Claude.
This is a little simplistic, but it’s a good start. So in this case, what I’m going to do is I’m going to include other sheets so I can have all the elements that I want to add. So in this case, I want a wedding date. I also want to include my guest list, seating charts, gift list, and the venues.
Now, next, what I’m going to do is I’m going to go ahead and export this and download this as an Excel sheet.
Building the Vibe Coded Prompt
Now I’m going to go back to the Claude chat, and I’m also going to include the Excel sheet that I just created. So act as a senior product strategist, UX thinker, and front-end engineer. Your job is to help me turn this mini app into a build-ready vibe code, okay? And then please use the attached Excel sheet as a reference and help me brainstorm to come up with vibe coded prompt.
So next we’re going to go ahead and execute, and it’s going to help me come up with a vibe-coded prompt. Now, please note that you’re going to need to brainstorm a bit because it might not be exactly as you want it. So it’s just a matter of getting this right first, getting all the nitty-gritty in a place that feels right, and only then are you going to actually open Claude’s code to have and copy the prompt that this is giving you, so you can start building.
This can take a little while, and now it has created a prompt for me. So this is essentially what I will go ahead and copy so I can bring it to Claude. But before I go through the context and make sure that everything that I need is included. So then once I’ve done that, I’m going to go ahead and copy.
How the App Works for Customers
I’m going to go ahead and open Claude’s code, and I’m going to go ahead and start building. Yeah, so essentially this is living on their computer, right? So they can rename it whatever, but like when they click on this, this will be their wedding planner, right? And so, basically, what you would want to say in your instructions is that they have multiple weddings that they want to do, you can just create a folder on your local computer, and just duplicate the document and the HTML file.
So then, if they have different weddings, it could be like the Johnson wedding, the Gardner wedding, right? So, they have multiple planners going on living locally in their computer, which is different than putting it in something like Google Sheets, right? Yeah, and again, the digital files that they’re getting are the index HTML and then the guide of what they need to do, right? With the instruction.
And so, if you want to include a YouTube video tutorial, you would include that in the guide. And then you just publish it and have a better mock-up as well because the mock-up is what’s going to do the selling. And you have to really be clear that this is not getting an Excel sheet, but they’re getting an interactive dashboard, which is much more user-friendly than using an Excel sheet or Google Sheet, which might be overwhelming to folks who just don’t use it day-to-day.
Features of the Final Product
Now, this is the final product. And as you can see, on the dashboard here, I can reset and erase all my data. I can also export it, so when I export this, I can share it with other vendors. I can also import data. And essentially here, I can add another planner row, so let’s say I need food or like decoration, let’s say. So, it’s going to be flowers or plants, I don’t know, plants.
We’re going to add the vendor name, Plants Inc., the contact, hello@plantinc.com, the website, and then the due date. Can also include seating, so we’re going to have the Taylor family in table three. We can also have a gift list, so like add gifts that we want. So, an air fryer, for instance.
Can include the link, and then do so, which allows us to add all of our information. And again, what it’s doing is that it’s saving this directly on our computer. So, every time we open the index file, it’s going to open this, and it’s going to save it. And see how it’s saved it right here, and it’s saved it inside our machine.
We can also change the theme as we want. We can add our partner. We can add our wedding date. So, all of this is way more user-friendly than using an Excel sheet, right? And so, that’s where the opportunities are. There are a lot of different Excel sheets currently on Etsy that you can completely rebrand and vibe code using Claude.

Creating Professional Mock-ups
When it comes to creating mock-ups, I actually have a new personal favorite. It’s Flow, which is part of the Google AI Studio suite. And it just creates amazing images. And so, what I recommend you do, now this is kind of like hackers’ way of doing things, is I took the liberty of taking a screenshot of another competitor.
Now, I recommend that you also download mock-ups that you have access to. And as you can see, I also took a screenshot of what the app looks like. And then I also asked it to change what it said, right? So, a complete wedding planner dashboard, no Excel or Google Sheet needed. Simplify wedding planning and feel less overwhelmed. And then it includes the mock-up.
And then I do think it’s a nice, unique selling proposition to also have a walk-through YouTube tutorial for folks simply because this is like a new kind of product, and they might feel overwhelmed. Now, it might feel like it’s a little bit more work up front for you, obviously, cuz now there are additional steps, but think about the opportunities.
Like, think about how many Google Sheets are making six figures on Etsy, and you can easily dethrone them by simply creating a brand new product category. Like the sky’s the limit. Yeah, and we saw there’s only one real person doing this right now from what we did from our research, and it already has that better value proposition.
So, you definitely mean it means you can sell it for more, and ideally, make more sales as well.
The other thing as well, guys, like so it uses like Nano Banana, but as you can see as well, as you can also like do different aspect ratios and whatnot. And listen, I mean, my prompt was super easy. Like, help me create a mock-up similar to this image. I just uploaded it, and I then I told it to change what was inside, and I also prompted what I wanted it to say. And so, this is way more stable than Nano Banana. If I were doing this directly on Nano Banana with Gemini, I would be getting way more errors, and this got it on the first try.
So, this is just a game-changer, guys. It’s going to give you such an edge and also save you so much time. I mean, I remember back in the day, mock-ups used to take me a couple of hours at times.
Luna, I know that you have spent hours helping me try to craft this video. And guys, as I said, Luna has it in full community where she’s sharing these prompts and how to do vibe coding, not just on Etsy, but Etsy and beyond to make these interactive web apps that are just changing the game for selling digital assets. Luna, thank you so much, and make sure everyone you go check out her links in the description. Bye, guys. Learn more about Claude by clicking here.
