I built Brilly a website app to help me learning Data Analysis with a live Chat tutor who sees my code and give me recommendations and Tips to follow and also evaluating my code - find errors and more.
Where do you guys find beta testers for your software? Trying to reach a niche and posting for just getting beta testers seems to frowned upon. what strategies have worked for you?
What's your biggest challenge right now?
Not looking for polished answers. Just honest ones.
If you're stuck, say so. That's what this place is for.
I’m working on a product for founders who want to make better decisions before spending time, money, or traffic on the wrong thing.
The problem I’m trying to solve:
A lot of startup decisions are expensive to validate.
Changing pricing can hurt conversion.
Changing copy can confuse users.
Changing onboarding can reduce activation.
Launching a feature can waste weeks.
Running interviews or A/B tests takes time and often requires traffic you may not have yet.
So I’m building Polyhyle: a simulation platform where you can model a product/business scenario and see how different synthetic user segments might react.
Examples:
To be clear: I don’t think simulated users replace real customers.
But I do think they can help founders narrow down bad ideas faster, generate better hypotheses, and decide what is actually worth testing.
I’d love feedback from other founders:
What’s one startup decision you wish you could simulate before making it?
We kept running into the same problem: LangChain is powerful for building agent logic, but the moment you need a production-grade runtime with a visual canvas, human review checkpoints, scheduling, observability, and self-hosted deployment, you're assembling a lot of pieces yourself.
Heym is our answer to that. A self-hosted, source-available AI workflow automation platform. Visual canvas for building multi-agent pipelines, built-in knowledge retrieval, Human-in-the-Loop approval checkpoints that pause execution and generate a public review link, full LLM traces, and an MCP Server to expose any workflow as a callable tool for AI assistants.
The execution engine builds a DAG from the workflow graph and runs independent nodes concurrently. Agent nodes have automatic context compression so long-running agents don't silently fail as context grows.
Launching today. Source-available

Every niche feels saturated from the outside.
But most markets have room for 5-10 real competitors.
You don't need to be #1. You just need to find your slice.
There are still first-page rankings to claim. Still communities to own. Still customers who haven't heard of your competitors.

Problem statement: Every person needs money for upgrading their standard of living, business needs money to grow their business, student needs money for higher education. but sometimes getting money becomes difficult.
Solution: Many government schemes offer money for MSME, and higher education, but either people are not aware or don't want to go through that way, because applying for government schemes, keeping track of the application status, what amount we will get, many question arises and they ignore that option.
My website will act as a middle man and help users apply for the scheme and help the user to get his deserved many thoughout the application process until user gets the money.
Website has various tiers for our services and for every successful transaction, we take a small percent of the amount he requested(max 5000 Rs.)
Note: Some tiers are coming soon as I am researching with the appropriate people who will help me decide the pricing of tiers and working staff. For payment of services, I have kept demo mode on as the website is still in the development phase.
I need help with government people or persons who are well-versed in such government schemes, or how I should price my tiers.
If anyone knows such person or have any feedback for this idea, please share it, I would love to listen to feedback and implement it. I am working on other side projects to so giving time to other websites if also tough, if anyone wants to contribute they are welcome.
Month one your API costs are fine. Almost suspiciously fine.
Month three you pull the logs and realize a huge percentage of requests are the same handful of questions asked slightly differently every single day. "How do I cancel." "Can I cancel my plan." "Cancellation." The model generates a fresh answer every time and you pay full price every time.
At low volume this is invisible. At any real scale it is a significant chunk of your bill that was never in the budget because nobody modeled for repeat traffic properly before launch.
The math is simple. First time a question gets asked you pay. Every similar question after that should cost nothing because the answer already exists.
That is what semantic caching does and it is the single highest ROI infrastructure decision for any AI Product with real traffic. I built it into synvertas.com along with prompt cleanup and automatic provider failover. One URL change to get all three.
Curious what people in this community are working on.
Not just the end goal but the actual thing you are building this week. What did you ship, what are you stuck on, what surprised you.
I will start. I am building a free scored quiz tool. This week I shipped an onboarding flow and a pricing page. Biggest surprise so far is that people are using it for things I never expected, healthcare screening, workplace safety, education. I thought it was just for lead qualification.
What about you?
Here are some features I shipped for BiteTube this week:
Share what kind of features you shipped in the comments to let other users know about your project!
Hi everyone, I built an android app 8 years ago when I graduated from high school and forgot about it. was surprised this week when I found out that it had more than 7k downloads so I fixed some bugs and redeployed to google store but not sure what features I should add or change to improve it. if you were to use the app what would you like to see?
the app is called sNotes
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sNotes.sam
Doesn't have to be a big win.
What did you build, ship, or learn this week that you're proud of?
Share it here. Small wins deserve recognition too.
Hey everyone,
I currently have 6 micro-SaaS live, bringing in a bit over $20k in MRR.
The crazy part? I barely wrote a single line of code. I used AI to generate everything, from the database to the UI.
It wasn’t magic on day one. I spent hours stuck on broken code before I finally cracked the system:
Lately, I see too many non-tech people give up at the first AI bug. It sucks because the technical barrier is basically gone.
So, I’m starting a Skool community.
Full transparency: I will probably charge for the full course down the line. It makes sense given the exact workflows and copy-paste prompts I’ll be sharing.
But the main goal right now is to build together. Building alone is the fastest way to quit.
If you want to join and build your own AI SaaS with us: drop a comment or shoot me a DM, and I’ll send you the invite!
I'm building War Mode because I kept failing with habit apps that pat you on the back for showing up once a week. This one doesn't care about your excuses.
What it does: You start at Tier 1 with manageable daily missions. String together completions and you advance to higher tiers. But here's the catch – miss your missions and you drop back down. No streak counters to baby. No motivational messages. Just a system that treats your commitment like it matters.
Each tier (1-5) raises the stakes. Tier 5 is War Mode – the top level you earn by proving you can show up when it's hard, not just when you feel like it.
Why you might actually use it: Because you're sick of apps that throw confetti for the bare minimum. This is for people who know motivation is bullshit and discipline is the only thing that works – but they need a structure that doesn't let them negotiate their way out at 6 AM.
My questions for you:
Currently in closed beta. Real users, real feedback, no fluff. First 10 on the waitlist get 1 year free.
After building 3 products, I finally made my first sale with ChartPilot.live.
It’s an AI chart analysis tool for traders. You can upload a chart screenshot or use the Chrome extension to analyze TradingView charts in one click.
It gives structured analysis around market structure, support/resistance, patterns, scenarios, risk zones, and no-trade conditions.
The funny part is: building the product was not the hardest thing.
Getting people to care, try it, trust it, and pay for it is way harder.
Still, that first sale felt amazing.
Small win, but definitely a real one.

Hello everyone!
About 8 months ago, I started building my first SaaS project from scratch using vibe coding only.
At first, the idea was simple: a social media scheduling platform for Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, etc. But as a beginner, I quickly realized how difficult SaaS development actually is. I kept running into problems with APIs, integrations, infrastructure, and honestly a lot of moments where I felt stuck.
There were periods where I worked on it every day, then disappeared from the project for weeks because I was overwhelmed or didn’t know how to solve something. But I never fully gave up on it because I genuinely believed the idea had potential.
Recently, one of my classmates joined me, and since then we’ve been working on it much more consistently. We also made a big decision: instead of trying to support every platform, we removed a lot of features and integrations and decided to focus entirely on X/Twitter.
The project has now evolved from being “just a post scheduler” into more of a content growth system for X creators.
Right now, the product is still rough. Some APIs are broken, there are bugs, and the MVP definitely isn’t polished yet. But for the first time, it feels like we’re moving forward seriously and consistently.
We’re trying to release the MVP as soon as possible, and I wanted to share the journey because I know a lot of people here are probably going through the same thing with their own projects.
i would love to hear any advice or tips for someone just started.
thank you ❤️
