Show HN: Bonsai Alternative

Recently I realized I am paying close to $400 to Bonsai every year, event though I am using only 2-3 of the features which happen to be in the Professional plan so I am building a simpler and more affordable version for small service based businesses.

It's still in active development, so far it has:

- scheduling links - client crm - link-in-bio/lead capture builder - form builder

with custom workflows and integrations coming soon.

I would love some feedback. It has a free plan that you can play around.

Join 100+ coaches, is this true? FIVE STAR RATING, is this true? Pro is Limited time (11 left) is this true?

I'm not your target audience so I didn't want to come off too critical. That said, and given no other comments: - this is a tailwind site. - everything about this is some tailwind component

Getting something up super fast is not "wrong", that's why I hesitate to comment. What this makes me question though is whether you've talked to your customers and leaned into what they are about and how you're benefiting them.

I really don't like this "join 100+ coaches" because it feels like a lie! is it a lie? why are you lying to your customers? That's my takeaway.

I'm a developer too, and I genuinely applaud the bias toward action and shipping something. What I struggle with, and what I am talking on, is the actually doing the hard work - not the npm tailwind-whatever-the-fuck - of solving customer problems.

This seems odd. Why not one? One thing I really like about iPhone subscriptions is the ability to cancel them with a single click through a common interface. I suppose it’s technically more than one click as I have to open the interface but this wording seems weird to me like there’s some extra steps I won’t like.

But you're right, if you have users, it's not easy. I shouldn't have posted my comment. Sorry for being negative.
