PPC Toolbox is a free Chrome extension built by a PPC geek for PPC pros. Instantly translate search terms, extract competitor ads, build UTM links & find related searches — right inside your browser. Automate the boring stuff & save hours every week.
A week ago, if you’d told me I’d be trading late-night ad copy tweaks in Google Docs for coding sessions in VS Code, I would’ve laughed. Yet here I am, having built my first Chrome extension — PPC Toolbox — and already contemplating the next project. 🧪
This journey wasn’t a calculated pivot. It began with a desire to automate parts of my PPC workflow, leading me down a path of AI tools and what I now call “vibe coding”: less perfection, more curiosity and momentum. No rigid roadmap — just solving my own problems one script at a time. ⚙️
What surprised me most?
👉 How fun this has been.
I used a mix of AI models, chatbots, code helpers & design tools. It’s been a playground for experimentation, learning, and now… launching my first product. 🛠️
