#52I just launched Writxt[0] a “walkthrough” to let you setup your own SMS to blog platform.
I also put up a stupid side project ThriftyName[1] where you get a brand name for $5.

#53https://planflow.dev - The easiest way to PLAN your website or mobile app. It tries to make planning a website or mobile app as close as possible to the pen and paper experience. It does this in a simple but (from my, and the experience of those who have tested it out) very effective and engaging way. I share a bit more about how this is done here: https://simpleprogrammer.com/information-architecture-develo... .
Just subscribed, Tapha! Curious to see how it'll work, as I do UI/UX design as well P.S: Feedback for feedback, if you're down? https://bychgroup.com/price-unlock/
Alright, so what you have here is pretty innovative. The problem for me was that it just took way too long for me to figure out what it is you did.
You might be spending a bit too much time on the problem here. It may be worth spending a bit more on the solution and making that clearer.
Right now it seems that its hidden within the modal underneath the copy. It should be much higher and not within a modal.
I would also try to say more with less with the problem. Again, it felt like it took a little too long to get to the point (and the point you're making is a pretty good one I might add!).
I find that with people who are more on the 'founder' end of the customer spectrum, particularly those who are tech focused, too much 'copy' and 'slow salesmanship' can be a negative. We tend to err on the side of 'just tell me and I'll figure out if its valuable' if that makes any sense.
I hope this helps?
Good luck man!

#54I’m working on a decision tree workflow to help burned out / aged out engineers leave the industry and seek a happier career path.

#55I'm announcing PriceUnlock here: https://bychgroup.com/price-unlock/ But the gist of it is: * We're aiming to make it easier and less risky to try charging more/less * Aiming to help you stop leaving money on the table (or take too much money from the table?) by enabling you to easily charge different prices in higher/lower-income countries — like Apple, Netflix, etc. do * Aiming to make A/B testing of prices headach…
Interesting, I think there's a lot we could improve in the way we do things. You're talking about an automatic pricing tool that learns the market through time and region and automatically seeks optimal price points?... Some kind of drop in library tool a few lines of code thing would be awesome! Also if you're making me more money, I'd be willing to share a percentage with you considering I may not have had that money otherwise.

#56I'm working on https://hanami.run an email forwarding service.
I tried to build it in open https://www.indiehackers.com/product/hanami and plan to blog more about my journey on https://hanami.run/blog.
I started this because I want to make send and receive email easier once I bought a domain.
I also want to give my wife and me has some kind of mail alias so both of us can receive email(kids information, hospital etc).
Right now, I'm working hard to add Disposable email feature and add team access.

#57I have been working for a few years now on Exomind[1], a personal knowledge management tool that takes the form of a unified inbox in which you can have your emails, tasks, notes and bookmarks organized into collections. I have an iOS and a web/electron client at the moment, and a simple Chrome & Safari extension for bookmarking. I plan to eventually add files (blobs), definitions and support extensibility via WASM applications.
Its backend (Exocore[2]) is built on top of a personal / private blockchain and is made from the ground up to be hosted in a semi-decentralized fashion on your own personal devices (your computer, raspberry pi, a cloud instance, etc.). It is written in Rust and has iOS, C and Web (WASM) clients.
It has very rough edges, but I'm using it daily to organize my life. It has also been my learning playground to improve my Rust skills over the last two years (it was on another tech stack before). [1]: https://github.com/appaquet/exomind [2]: https://github.com/appaquet/exocore

#59Last fall, during covid-19, I started working on an app to use my iPhone as a webcam for my Mac. I had some interest in it, so I recently released it publicly last month.
There are similar apps out there, but to my knowledge my app is the only one that is both 100% free and supports 1080p @ 30 FPS.

Wow thanks that helps a lot!
Not really automatic price-setting, at least not by default! I would personally like to have control over the knobs in my product.
It would give you a dashboard where
A) You would be able to set the prices manually (with suggestions, of course, and with taking into account things like extra Stripe fees, rounded estimations so you don't wound up with £28.837 in the UK).
You'd set them manually based on country, so you won't leave money on the table by not charging less in India, for instance.
I'm always mentioning India because Apple is the widest example that comes to mind: Apple one is £15 and £25 in the UK, whilst $1.5 and $3 in India
B) Run tests that you set manually on prices. $19 vs $29 — see, with metrics, which one brings your company more revenue. Or perhaps same revenue, but more users, so more word of mouth — who knows what the test will show?
You'd be able to either schedule (e.g. $19 for week 1, $29 for week 2) or run tests at the same time (show 50% of ppl $19 , show 50% of ppl $29 // OR show ppl in the Uk $19, show ppl in the US $29)
RE: your last comment — the best part would be that it'd be a flat fee per month, no percentages! So every extra cash that you receive from ppl on top of the flat fee is yours to keep for... well for as long as your "LT" in LTV!
How does that sound, you think?
