I am the author of https://Nestful.app (there's some overlap, but we do not seem to compete). I have built it after being through the same ordeal, and have come to the conclusion that the tool is not the main hurdle, especially at the level of Trello or Asana, which are very high quality tools. The lack of productivity comes from the methodology those tools implement. Their methodologies contributed a whole lot but b…

Very interesting approach. Unfortunately, the landing page does not give (me) enough that I want to sign up.

Some features, differentiators and screenshots would be a nice addition to the otherwise quite dry homepage.

Thanks for your feedback. Your methodology of "spontaneous productivity" is pretty interesting to me. Will take some time to check out your app. BTW, love your minimalist landing page.

Is there a way to see what your app does / how it does, without signing up with an e-mail?

Great approach - build first for yourself but with others in mind. Don't listen to the flood of critics online. Instead find trusted friends and colleagues who have your best interests at heart when they give feedback. Best of luck.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I appreciate it.

This looks great! I'm definitely trying it out.

My only feedback for you is this: Charge more. You're undercutting yourself a lot by just charging $6 per user. At the very least double that to $12 and it would still be a great price for the value you're offering.

Unfortunately, Nestful is not quite there yet. It's a product for extreme early adopters that think they can manage the methodology by hand.

I hope in the coming few months to release the "ready-made" solution for that, at which point there will be what to show on the home page.

I am positive it can be implement in a business oriented app to the same extent I am trying to implement it in a personal environment. And if it doesn't fit -- surely there are other methodologies that both advance the field and fit the product.
