The home page of my project works but it's still very SaaS standard. Does anyone have good examples of cool or at least more engaging SaaS websites? Be interested to learn or take some good learnings from them.

Keen to try Framer as well. I've built a bunch of websites on Squarespace and Carrd so interested to try another platform.

After 5 Years of Building for Others, I Finally Launched My Own App

After 5 years of building apps for clients and companies, I finally launched one of my own.

It’s called GrowTogether, a simple community-driven habit tracker built around one idea:

“Push Each Other, Grow Together.”

The concept is intentionally simple.

You create a group with friends or family, track habits together, see who’s staying consistent, and motivate each other when someone starts slipping.

No AI productivity buzzwords.

No complicated systems.

Just accountability with people you care about.

I originally built it because I realized most habit apps focus too much on solo tracking, while consistency becomes much easier when you’re doing it with others.

If anyone wants to try it with a fitness-focused group, you can also join this public home workout group:

Home Workout Code: ZO3W9G

The last 8 weeks were honestly exhausting:

Constant development

Endless iterations from feedback

Going back and forth with Apple & Google reviews

Surviving Google Play’s 14-day testing requirement with 12 active testers just to get production access

That final step tested my patience more than the development itself 😅

But the app is finally live now.

I’d genuinely love feedback, both good and bad. I’m actively improving the platform and listening closely to early users.

iOS:
apps.apple.com/us/app/growtogether-habit-tracke…

Android:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ventu…

If you try it, please let me know how I can improve. Hopefully, this becomes something meaningful.

And even if it doesn’t, at least I finally stopped postponing the idea and shipped something I truly wanted to build.

Introducing Empathease, a community for empathy.

It's an app for learning and practicing empathy with a community. We have empathy circles that run hourly, on-demand 1x1 empathy, and users can create their own recurring empathy circles. We have a comprensive course that takes you through empathetic communication, learning how to deeploy connect with yourself and others.

We have games and AI tools to help you practice. The Giraffe Translator turns a sharp, blaming sentence into an honest one about your own feelings and needs. The Needs Guesser helps you name the need underneath what someone just said to you.

I keep building this because that needs-based lens is how I try to communicate now, looking for what each person needs instead of who's right or wrong. If it resonates, try it and tell me where it helps and where it falls short.

🚀 Shipped PingRelay — a website and API monitoring platform that alerts you the moment something goes wrong.

Monitor websites, APIs, SSL certificates, and scheduled jobs from multiple locations, receive alerts via email, Slack, Discord, Teams, Telegram, or SMS, and keep users informed with customizable status pages.

Built for developers, startups, and small teams who want reliable monitoring without enterprise complexity.

First builder post, so I gotta introduce my project, right? I built a Chrome extension that reads any website's design system in one click and sends it straight to all your AI agents: Claude, GPT, Manus, Lovable, or copy to Cursor.

Reason I built it: every time I wanted to build something that "looks like Stripe" or just like a website with design patterns I like, I'd spend 20 minutes in DevTools copying hex codes. Then try to describe it to an AI in words. The result was always generic.

So I made UIDrop. One click, the AI gets the exact colors, fonts, spacing, shadows, component specs, either as a prompt or as "design_system.md"— with the screenshot attached.

It's free. 20 installs so far, launched 6 days ago.

Still figuring out distribution but the product works. Happy to get roasted on what I'm missing.

Results in May for a user of the automated trading bot I ship and review like crazy, because it's so damn amazing....

Strivle just got a real algorithm.

Until today the feed was simple: newest post on top. That rewards whoever posts the most, not whoever posts the best. So we rebuilt it from scratch.

Your For You feed now ranks by real engagement, with diminishing returns so no single signal can be farmed. A bookmark counts for more than a like. A real reply or repost counts for more than a passing tap. Quality wins, not volume.

Every new post gets a fair shot to be seen and earn its reach, no matter how many followers you have. Reach is earned here, never bought. There are no paid boosts on Strivle and there never will be.

And it cannot be gamed. You cannot repost yourself to the top. You cannot bump an old post by commenting on it. Bot likes are worthless.

You will also see what your network is actually doing. When someone you follow replies or reposts, it shows up in your feed with full context.

This is the start of the fairest feed in the builder world. More coming.

This is a bit different, but I just recently released an open source extension for VS Code (and VS Code fork) users that allows them to create custom file trees without affecting their file system saved to disk.

Example Use Case: You're working on a Spring Boot project that enforces strict directory configuration, but you want to organize your files and folders in a way that makes more sense to you, without affecting the enforced structure.

Might help with your workflow. Show it some love, and/or feel free to contribute: codeberg.org/hjdesulme/virtual-file-tree.git

Founders who've been here I need your honest advice

Okay so I'm genuinely frustrated right now and I need to hear from people who have actually been through this stage.

I'm building Talvé a professional platform for creative talent. Think LinkedIn but built exclusively for creatives. Musicians, models, photographers, producers, directors, all of them. The problem I'm solving is real. I see it every single day. I literally come across creatives who are facing the exact pain point Talvé was built to fix and I can't reach them properly.

That's the part that's killing me.

I try to post on Reddit and the bots take it down. I post on LinkedIn and Twitter and I'm facing the exact same problem my users face, you post something and get 10 impressions and you're basically talking to yourself. Building a following takes months and I don't have months to wait around hoping an algorithm decides to show my content to the right people.

I move from platform to platform every day trying to figure out where my people actually are and how to reach them and I feel like I'm spinning in circles.

So I want to ask the people who have been here before me.

How did you actually get your first real traction? Not the polished version. The real one. Which platforms worked for you at this stage? What did you do that actually moved the needle when nobody knew you existed yet? Did you go direct? Did you find communities? Did you do something completely unexpected?

Because right now I feel like I'm doing everything and reaching nobody and I could really use perspective from founders who have actually come out the other side of this stage.

What would you do if you were me right now?

Question for job board builders:

When an employer pastes a raw job description, what do you do with it?

Options I've seen:

a) Store it as-is in a single text field

b) Ask them to fill out a structured form instead

c) Parse it into fields on submission

d) Nothing — just display it verbatim

Building JD Intelligence to solve this at the API level (jdintelligence.dev) — but genuinely curious what the most common approach is in the wild. Anyone who's shipped a job board, what did you end up doing?

Second long-form live. The Credits Tax: AWS, OpenAI, Stripe, Google Cloud all gate $20K-$200K in free startup credits behind incorporation. Pre-formation founders bleed personal cash for tools their post-formation peers get free. The math nobody runs.

Client concept:
"An empathetic, zero-subscription AI survival engine that transitions laid-off tech workers from financial panic to operational execution. It hooks high-intent traffic with free personal runway and visa planning tools to upsell highly targeted, one-time situational execution templates."

Initial concept ran through meattheslop.hilarymoyo.studio/ for lightweight tool search and $10 verdict.

Deeper assessment using combined framework from research.
Client advised to pivot.

Developing further to ensure lessons learnt can be built into my workflow and provide better advice.

The worst moment in a client project is rarely the work itself.

It’s the phrase “That was part of the deal, right?”—three weeks later, when no one remembers exactly what was agreed upon.

That’s exactly why I’ve spent my evenings over the past few months building a little tool: Shakeon.

The idea is simple. You quickly jot down what’s included in the project—services, revision rounds, deadline, price—send your client a link, and they confirm it with a click. No account, no login on their end. After that, you both have a fixed, timestamped record of what was agreed upon. No contract, more like a “shared record of the facts” that you can refer to later without having to argue from memory.

I’m a UX designer, not a full-time founder—this started as a solo project, from concept to design to code. I’m both proud and nervous to be releasing it now.

It’s just been launched, so I hardly have any users yet—and that’s exactly why I’m reaching out: I’d love to hear your honest feedback.

Sup small Elon Musks (people with vision) new here, im building an HR Peoples Operations platform, im an hr/ops person my self and building something around what all international platforms are missing in my country. Im going local yes. The international scene looks like a big chunk for the moment. cheers.

Just curious to hear from my fellow founders. Does everyone else see the future of startups being more concentrated to those 1-3 man teams? AI has unlocked my ADHD brain in a way I thought I would never know in my lifetime (im late 30s). Now its build and allow the slow process of traction to begin, but AI ensures I am still in it everyday while building the next. The old timers say focus on a company and its wedge, but I think its a numbers and marketing game now since anyone can build. Thoughts?

@sebastian Decided to share. You have done an important thing to bring us small timers all together, felt I should help shouting at the void.

A mistake I made early on to showcase my product is that I made the website super simple, clean and iOS-like. Even though this is what gives across the ease of use aspect of the product, it didn't really hook anyone in. Need to do a full redesign.

Website in question: meridiandigital.ie

Will be doing a big overhaul, so enjoy it while it lasts :)

Creating beautiful designs and landing pages doesn't start from mapping out an idea. It starts from brand identity. Dynamic visuals almost always act as a glue for new viewers. Keep these in mind when designing for a product or service.

Working on the local SEO part of my automated system for high ticket construction projects and a completely unique system currently:

Something I've learned – nobody wants to hear the technical side of things, how robust your systems are, and how accurately they scrape data sources.

They just have one question: How many more clients will this bring me?

Automated whatsapp data extraction, personalized database recovery, review requests, GBP management all tie into one another and MAXIMIZE chances of new leads for clients, but never guarantee them.

I shipped the landing page today. Go and sign up for the wait list to lock in the launch pricing! coducky.com/

I am just waiting on Lemon Squeezy to approve my store so that licenses can be purchased, and then I will make the app public.

I also have added a public changelog, which you can find on the website.

The website (Astro) is in a separate repo to the app (Swift) as I didn't want to manage a monorepo. I maintain a changeset in the main repo and when I tag a new release I upload it to R2 during CI and trigger a rebuild of the Astro website, which pulls the changelog during build to create the changelog page you see above.

Went from ideation to 50 users within 6 hours

I got curious about SEO and wanted to learn it by actually building something instead of just reading guides.

So yesterday I launched Online Audio Test:

onlineaudiotest.com

It's a free browser-based audio testing tool with:

Microphone Test

Speaker Test

Audio Channel Test

Latency Test

I've been working on a AI citation tool that fills the gap that most other systems aren't touching. I have a robust "Conversation" tool that allows a user create, or choose a buyer persona, scenario, and run an in depth conversation through all the major AI tools with the click on a button. It shows when you're cited, when your competitors are cited, inaccuracies in its statements, and more. It then gives you exact action plans on what to fix and can even created content briefs and generate full content for your site to ensure you are hitting areas that buyers are looking and competitors are showing up. I spent a lot of time building the psychology behind the scenes and it really pushes the AI systems to return a "recommend" or "did not recommend" your brand answer. Once content is created based on gaps, you can publish directly to your website with a webhook, and then over time the system tracks if those content edits and additions gave you a recordable lift in AI citations. It has SEO, AEO, and GEO scoring, schema checking, brandable reports, GA4 integration to see traffic vs. citation overlays. Causal timelines to track whats working and whats not. The app is called Citingly and is at citingly.com

If anyone wants to run it through it's paces and give me feedback, let me know and I'll set your account to have unlimited runs for a little bit.
