About PleaseDontCode
from our crawl and measurement
"Describe what your device should do. AI generates ready-to-flash firmware for ESP32, Arduino and 100+ boards. Update deployed devices over-the-air (POTA)." That is how PleaseDontCode introduces itself. To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 6.2 out of 10, readable in places and missing in others.
On the page itself the strengths are clear: a clear heading structure and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow. It is passable on a few credibility markers and basic crawler access. What holds it back is a clearly stated business identity and structured data describing the business.
Away from its own site, other sites link to it. There is some, but not much, sign that the domain is only lightly established. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. Those are earned elsewhere on the web, not fixed on the site itself.
AI crawlers have visited 2 times in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic). It does link out to several social profiles, which helps engines tie the brand together.

What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 6.2/10, PleaseDontCode has a working base to build on - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. PCGen is designed to let you create firmware without writing code: describe in chat what you want your device to do and AI generates the code for you. You can also upload existing code as a starting point.
How does the code generation process work?
1. Select your board by clicking the icon in the editor (34+ supported including ESP32, ESP8266, Arduino). 2. Describe your project in the chat — for example: “I want to read temperature and display it on an LCD screen”. 3. AI generates the complete code with compatible libraries and verified pin assignment. 4.
Is it really free?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 credits per month and 1 device, forever, with no credit card required. You can generate code, compile, flash via USB, and use POTA for wireless updates. Paid plans unlock more credits, more devices, simultaneous OTA updates across fleets, and advanced features.
How is this different from ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude?
Generic LLM chatbots produce text that looks like firmware but has no contact with your real hardware. They don't know if GPIO 6 on your ESP32 is usable (spoiler: it isn't), whether your LCD needs a pull-up, whether the library you paste actually compiles against the board's core, or if the pin they suggest clashes with the internal SPI. You have to catch every mistake yourself.
How is this different from Replit, Lovable or Cursor?
Replit, Lovable, Cursor and other AI coding tools are built for software: web apps, scripts, backends, frontends. They don't know what a GPIO is, they can't generate a wiring schematic, they can't compile for the ESP32 or Arduino core, they can't flash a .bin to a physical board over USB, and they don't manage remote updates for devices deployed in the field. PleaseDontCode is built for firmware.
