I did this for years until I finally snapped and built KnowledgeSaved. A mobile app for android users to save information. It allows you to take pictures, select images from gallery, select videos from gallery and it will convert that information into text. So, next time you liked something that tickled your brain, you can save it in the app to share with people in the future.

I've also went ahead and added a community feature where people can interact with others within the app and share insightful information.

There's essentially 2 modes. You can save content just to yourself, or you could also share it with the community.

Behind the scenes, I'm working on straightening out some rough edges; in the meantime would love to hear what you all think about the app.

If you try it, roast me with feedback.

Trust me, I can take it ;)

TLDR; Save insights/content you think you'd reuse in the future in an organized manner, engage with like-minded community.

I’ve been working on streamlining MVP development and have seen some founders go from idea to launch in under 24 hours. But for many, the process takes months.

If you could start over, what would you have done differently? Would you have brought in external help to speed things up?

I am curious to know what startup programs you're benefiting from.

I’ve personally claimed credits and perks from Azure, OpenAI, AWS Activate, Supabase and Notion.

Are there any other good startup programs offering useful benefits? Would love to hear what has worked for you!

For the past 6 months, I’ve been using AI to generate blog posts manually—for the tools I build, for my marketing team at work, and even for side projects. Every time, it’s the same routine: coming up with topics, feeding prompts into AI, tweaking sections, fixing SEO, and formatting. It’s time-consuming, and honestly, I knew there had to be a better way.

So I started building PostForge ( usepostforge.com )—a tool that streamlines the entire process. You enter a few ideas, and it generates fully written, structured, and optimized blog posts in minutes. No more piecing together AI outputs by hand.

I’m opening up a waitlist for early access. If you’re a founder, marketer, or content creator tired of the grind, join my waitlist here: https://postforge.notion.site/18b3340a42ea801982b2ff54b8bce9c9

Would love your thoughts—what’s your biggest struggle with AI-generated content?

Hi! 10+ years of software engineering, dangerous in all, jack of trades. Know how to scale, optimize and produce quality software applications that are robust and will maintain their worth long in the future.

I’ve been working on the new generation of AI projects and tools for the past couple years now. I know many businesses are trying to integrate or switch to AI automation and learning practices.

Currently looking for work to grow and scale your project with or without AI.

US based — Able to handle a couple projects at a time since it’s only myself, hands on working with you and your team!

DM if interested or drop any questions here!

If you are doing a business where you have to first generate leads to convert them into clients, how easy is this process to you?

Did you find it easy or hard?

If it is very hard, why? What are you doing exactly?

if it is easy, what are you doing?

Just wants to know.

Hey all. I created this as a passion project and would love any feedback. CoconutsAi.com emails you one task per day that's tuned to your business to help you grow. Its based on the 1% growth concept of small tasks. Thank you all ahead of time!

Hi r/growmybusiness , I don’t know if you have noticed that most SEO tools cost a lot of money. I am subscribed to one that costs more than >$200 per month (no joke).

To have a blog page on your website that attracts traffic, you need two things:

1. A content strategy: This involves thinking about what kind of content can add value to your target customer. Once you identify topics your target audience might search for or need, you can create a posting schedule around those topics. For example, you could post one blog article under each topic every week.
2. Well-researched, quality content for each blog post: Based on your content strategy, you need curated content to write and publish high-quality blog posts regularly.

I’ve managed to automate both of these steps. I created a tool that can scrape your website’s content and, based on that, generate a successful content strategy (by researching what other companies in your market are writing about). For each blog topic, it curates content from 50 sources and writes a well-researched blog post.

Now, you might be wondering: where do I come in? After generating a blog post using my tool, you’ll notice two things. First, it’s AI-written, and second, it’s not SEO-friendly (SEO-friendly content needs to be re-written to include specific terms/phrases that users are searching for on Google). That’s where I come in. I’ll re-write the generated article to make it sound natural (not like AI) and include the right keywords to make it SEO-friendly.

You can use my tool to generate the article for free. If you’d like me to re-write the content, I can do it for a small fee (1/5th the cost of outsourcing to a freelancer).

If you’re interested in exploring this idea further, drop your website URL in the comments along with your ideal customer profile. I’ll send you a DM with a link to my tool.

Hi Guys I have been working on creating a product. I have created a demo video and a landing page design of the same in figma. I need to know if my design and presentation is able to properly convey the message and would greatly appricated any feedback from you.

Hello,
I own a small web development agency focused on Shopify and Magento development and I am offering free 30 minutes shopify and magento consultation call for business owners who struggles with their e-commerce system.
I started out as a magento certified developer in 2013 and since than I worked with a huge number of clients from Upwork and because I had consistent projects I neglected my online presence outside of Upwork.

Now it is the perfect time to build my website and social media presence but I struggle with attracting leads to my website and I am looking for advice.

I’m in the process of exploring a few potential business opportunities, but I want to make sure I test the waters before diving headfirst into any of them. I’m looking for effective ways to validate whether a product or service idea is worth pursuing—without sinking a ton of time or money into something that might not work out.

Here’s where I’m at: I’ve got a few ideas I’m excited about, but I don’t want to waste resources on building a product or service if there’s no demand or interest. I want to focus my efforts on the one that has the best chance of success.

What are some proven strategies or methods to:

• Test demand for a product or service?
• Gauge whether people would actually pay for it?
• Get meaningful feedback from potential customers?

If you’ve successfully tested a business idea before launching it, I’d love to hear your approach or lessons learned. Whether it’s running social media campaigns, creating landing pages, using surveys, or anything else. I’m open to all suggestions.

Got ideas? Share them with me?

I am already tired. So many people are trying to grow their business, but they do not even have website. It's basic thing. Is it required? No. Will it help? YES. Then just set something up. Landing page, some subpages and blog, if you will write something there. Post it on your socials, make sure that it will be SEO-friendly, and you will see results.

You can do it on your own, if you do not have time, then hire someone. Yes, I can help you with that, but it can be someone else. Why am I sharing that? Because I have already created some websites, and I see that it benefits people. One example? Almost 2k visitors in first month, after sharing website and couple of blog posts in social media and via search results.

Feel free to DM me, I can try to help you. I am open for free consultation calls, and advices. I want to help you, as I know this feeling, have been there with my business. Do not lose this opportunity, best time for doing that was yesterday. Next? Today.

Good luck!

Hey folks! I'm a former Silicon Valley software engineer who has been working on my own software development agency for a bit now. We focus on building software for small to medium sized businesses for a couple reasons:

• AI has vastly increased the speed at which you can build and deploy a small custom software product. What used to take months can now be done in weeks or days.
• AI also makes those custom solutions far more powerful. Even a sprinkle of AI for a lot of small businesses can be super powerful for customer engagement or operations.
• I like working with this size of company and think it's fun :)

My clients right now have been through friends and relationships, but I'd really like to figure out how to reach outside of my immediate circle (as I'll run out of options soon) and get more clients. Some ideas I'm going to try experimenting with are blog posts to try to attract inbound (maybe followed by some ads if I can find content that resonates) and cold outreach to business that seem like they could be a fit by phone or email. Is there anything else anyone would recommend? I am extremely confident we can do great work if we can just find the clients.

Hey friends,

I’ve been thinking a lot about how tough it can be for small businesses to sell online. Between fees, competition, and the constant grind to get noticed, it feels like the cards are stacked against you. I’m working on an idea for a platform that could make things easier, but I want to learn from people who actually know what it’s like.

If you’re a small business owner, I’d love to hear:

1. What’s the most frustrating thing about selling online?
2. Have you used platforms like Etsy or Shopify? What’s worked well, and what drives you crazy?
3. If there were a platform built just for small businesses, what would make it worth your time?

Your feedback could really help shape something that makes a difference. Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences, ideas, or even just your thoughts on what’s missing out there.

Looking forward to hearing what you’ve been through!

I’ve been a programmer for close to a decade, and recently expanded into web development.

I’ve been building completely custom websites from scratch for businesses using typescript/react (for free), and I’m looking to build some this week!

While technically not 100% free as you’ll need to pay for your own domain name and hosting, the free element I’m offering would cost you over $1k from any other custom website builder.

So just let me know in the comments if you’re interested or send me a DM, and I’ll add you to the list :)

Hi everyone,

This is a basic question, but now that I have launched my business (StarterSky.com)how do I get people to know about it?

Reddit, LinkedIn, Social media to an extent. But any platforms like Indiehacker or Indievoice that could help?

Cold calling? What has worked for you?

Any tips or tricks that could help?

Thanks alot!

“How do I boost retention?”
“Why are my subscription numbers plateauing?”

I recently started a small agency and we're looking to grow our testimonials and get some case studies so if you're looking for a professional website, I can help out!

Hi all! I started a small business that opened last oct. While we are gaining traction and even landing quite a few 5 star reviews, I can't help but feel like we're missing the mark on getting out there. How are you marketing within budget? For context we are a piercing parlor so I feel like we have limited options.

Hello everyone, I just launched a side project that I've been working on for a small while now, would love some feedback to help make it better. And don't worry, you don't need to pay anything because it's free

Here's the link

Its been an emotional journey working on my website, StarterSky. But I've launched my version 1.0.

It's not perfect, but as people say -Just launch it already!

StarterSky is a website that shares inspiring stories of young founders across the world.

My goal is to move fast, provide crazy value and interview interesting founders.

Would love some feedback- good, bad or ugly! :)

P.S. If you are a young founder and want to be featured, please reach out to me www.startersky.com

Hey everyone, I recently got laid off from my job and decided to channel my energy into creating a financial and budgeting app called Caretta. My background is in UX/UI design, and I used to work at a corporate bank, where I realized how much people lack knowledge about budgeting and financial education. That inspired me to design Caretta, which is a fun and colorful alternative to the typical budgeting apps.

The thing is, I have zero marketing experience, and I’ll admit I’m a bit impatient when it comes to getting results. Everywhere I’ve read says the first 100 users are the hardest to get, and wow, I didn’t realize just how true that is! I’ve told a few close friends about the app, but I feel kind of shy about putting myself out there on Instagram or LinkedIn, where most of my professional network is. Right now, I’m trying to start from scratch and promote it on TikTok and Bluesky instead, but honestly, starting from zero is tough.

If you have any feedback about the product, here’s the download link

I’d really appreciate your thoughts! 🙏
apple.co/3PFlBgq

Also, if anyone has tips or advice for promoting a product and getting those first users, I’d love to hear it. Should I go ahead and start posting on Instagram and LinkedIn now, or wait until I gain more traction? How do you overcome the fear of putting yourself out there? Any feedback or guidance would mean the world to me

thank you so much!
