It is a website to make US nutrition facts label which had a huge pivot from a website on learning how to cook. Website is only updated when new government regulations come out which is pretty rare considering how long it takes (in the years really)
I've launched a couple months ago https://linkz.ai Linkz.ai is hyperlink auto-previews that keep visitors on your website. It's heavily inspired by Wikipedia & Google Docs link preview popups with special extras. For example, when you click on a YouTube hyperlink, it does not take you to Youtube website, instead it opens lightbox with Youtube video on your website. All with just one line of code. $500+/m in a first m…
What a great idea ! Why .ai though ?
Most people see it as a teenage dance app type thing, but for techies wanting to build a personal brand or teach people it's a killer tool to rapidly grow.
I consistently make ~600/mo selling a 'newbie' TikTok course on appsumo. It's a no-frills recorded presentation and associated set of slides that I do very little marketing for with the goal of getting people to 1k followers on tiktok in 30 days or less.

I’m making ~$4k a month, from a small macOS and iOS app portfolio: - macOS apps: https://fadel.io/ - iOS apps: https://apple.co/3fqcWfO

The answer is a big "it depends", but there are ways to get basic FCC certification done for as little as $1K-$2K if you contact enough labs and your engineers are reasonably good at adhering to proper design practices (minimize respins and testing repeats). CE mark isn't actually required in the US, but you'd need it for Europe and other locations. It's more involved, but all-in testing can be done for > Did you hav…
My understanding as someone who works with embedded RF, is that if you use a SoC that is already FCC certified you don’t need additional certification, as long as you don’t do anything stupid like modifying chip registers that effect signal strength. This is a reason espressif chipsets are very popular in consumer electronics that require RF.
(For crowdfunding you need a good campaign and probably some ads / self-promoting which also could be expensive.)

Recheck the frame tv. I wanted one until I realized it's just a thin tv thats motion activated to stay on/turn on and show a static image.
How does that differ from what it is advertised as, or from what you expected?

It does more than just static images, it can play videos/gifs as well. I just bought one for our living room a month ago and love it. Its a good QLed TV, not as great as an OLED but that’s not why I bought it. It’s great for it is and you can buy custom made frames too. We have the 65” definitely recommend

> Can you talk about how you advertise and got traction enough to get to $500/month? Pure dumb luck. I made the site to scratch my own itch many years ago, and then it took off because there were few similar sites at the time (that let you mix together different sounds). Only promotion I did was mention the site on reddit a few times. Users were prepared to tolerate a lot of rough edges at first. There has been zero…

I like this, but I am reluctant to start paying for it without a trial. There are a few non-pro workouts, but could you consider a day pass or three day trial?
The app is free to download and you can try a bunch of the free workouts (?) no questions asked. Is that not enough of a trial?

That's pretty cool. Love to see a hardware project. What's the profit margin like? E-ink displays are expensive. That price point seems not enough to generate decent income.
> E-ink displays are expensive. I was curious... from what I can find online the wholesale price of an e-ink display is not that much cheaper (if any) than buying an equivalently sized Kindle. What is the viability of a business model that involves rooting a Kindle, loading whatever calendar display software you need, and shipping it inside a pretty wooden frame?
