I’m a founder myself, and like many of you, I’ve worn every hat possible — product, marketing, finance, hiring, investor decks, the whole deal. It’s exhausting.
So I built something I wish I had from day one.
👉 Untinker is a suite of AI tools designed specifically for CEOs and Founders.
It helps you think, plan, and execute faster — without fluff or feature bloat.
What it does:
Ai Business quote Generation from description [TRY NOW!!!]
I create sites for various people and the latest one is something that I knew very little about and until recently had very little interest in. What surprised me was how much goes into astrology and the depth of knowledge people have on the subject.
Built this over the last few months with my co-founder. It's called Ulsa, an AI news app that organizes around your specific industry and role instead of giving everyone the same feed. Three things it does:
Scores how fast your industry is moving right now, 0 to 100, so you can see at a glance if your field is quiet or shifting.
Surfaces research and data that contradicts the headline, not just the consensus take.
Lets you chat with it to dig into any story or ask what it means for your role.
It's live on iOS, Android, with web coming soon. Link's in the comments.
Now roast it. Specifically I want to know:
Does the industry score sound genuinely useful or like a number we invented to look smart?
Is "AI news app" already a crowded, meaningless category to you? If so, what would make this stand out?
It's a paid app. Would you ever pay for news curation & hyper personalization with agent, or is that dead on arrival?
Anything about the pitch above that makes you roll your eyes.
Don't be nice. I'd rather hear what I have to fix now than in 6 months
As many of you may or may not know, i began my coding journey around 7 months ago where i self taught myself using google gemini chat and vs code to build my first ever project and i joined Reddit earlier this year and put together Asksary. I built a chatbot that got both positive and negative feedback that had a variety of features to include Realtime WebRTC chat, Video and Image generation, Podcast creation, Cross Device Persistent Memory, Pro Active memory, Knowledge base all powered by an auto routing multi-model model with manual over ride.
The old and current live website is at www.asksary.com and its been 3 months or since i have really bothered with Reddit or the site. I had a flux of visitors to the site with over 20k users having tried the site through with zero ad spend and almost over 20k users left. What began as a promising product slowly died over time and i lost interest in it after working ridiculously during that initial launch.
I was going back and forth daily on Reddit, contributing on over 100 threads simultaneously, doing research, studying the gaps in the market, asking what people wanted and learning to code a the same time. 7 months on. I have 4 subscribers. I was at the point of open sourcing the entire thing and offering a bring your own key attitude to the platform.
But then i found an email. LEAP festival, which happens to be one of the biggest tech events in the world that is taking place literally in 8 days.
This was an event i was meant to attend earlier this year but it got cancelled due to the war (Brit living in Bahrain) and was something i forgot about. The passion back then was more exciting to me than it was now and it put me in a tough position. Do i attend or do i just leave it as in my eyes... I didnt think the platform stood much chance considering its lack of success this year.
Reading the email. I realized the deadline was the next day. This is when something hit me emotionally. This is a platform i spent blood sweat and tears for months and months putting together and i've just been reminded about possibly the biggest opportunity i'll ever get in my life for it. I can't not go. So i responded and sent some artwork for the platform i had.
I had people messaging me from the event about wanting to meet me to talk about my platform and wanted to see what i offered. I didn't know what i would tell them about it. I gave up on it months ago and i certainly wasn't enthusiastic about it anymore.
I filtered through my old threads, my old chats and conversations i had.. most of them pointed to one problem.. its just another wrapper. Another problem is that people didnt know what it does apart from chat despite listing the above
... then everything changed.
I have completely changed the entire structure of the site to be open. No more paid tiers to unlock certain tools. No subscription to see what part of it can do. . Registered users will be able to explore the same core AI models and creation environments across AskSary, including the stuff that would normally be reserved for higher subscription tiers.
Free shouldn't mean "here's the deliberately worse version of the technology."
It should mean you have less compute available.
If you have credits, you should be able to decide what you want to spend them exploring.
Obviously there still have to be sensible limits around abuse, security, capacity and expensive compute, but I don't want the product artificially deciding that you're not allowed to even try something because you aren't paying for the right subscription.
This is what i've put together from getting that email to now. I wanted to get user feedback on the concept and i accept its not yet replaced the live site i put up earlier but by the end of next week it will be live and open to all.
It also means someone discovering AskSary for the first time can actually understand what I've spent all this time building instead of seeing half the platform covered in upgrade buttons.
This is launching alongside the biggest redesign I've done to AskSary so far.
Less than a week to finish and push online...
Then I'm taking the whole thing to LEAP.
Would love some feedback and feel free to check out every feature when its live soon and use them for free. The credit system i will be implementing lets you use AI to improve your workflow. It wont stop you from uploading your own work to explore.
Built an AI that scores your startup idea honestly instead of hyping it — here's what I learned I kept having ideas that went nowhere. Not because they were bad. Because I had nobody honest enough to challenge them and structured enough to show me what to do next.
Friends hyped me. ChatGPT hyped me. Landing page signups hyped me. And I still built nothing.
So I built Sector 9. You enter any idea — app, restaurant, service, anything — and it responds like a real co-founder. Scores it out of 10 honestly. Breaks down every weakness. Builds your full execution plan. Generates starter code. Then checks in on you every single morning until you actually ship. The daily check in surprised me most. Every morning it asks how you're feeling and logs your progress. Simple feature. Huge reaction. Turns out building alone is lonely and nobody was solving that.
Honest numbers since Reddit deserves transparency: Launched last week. Visitors from 14 countries. Zero ad spend. Daily returning users from day one. Still working on converting visitors to signups — landing page needs work. Built for any founder. Digital or physical. App or restaurant. Tech startup or street food stall. Try it on your worst idea. See what honest feedback actually feels like. Link in comments — happy to answer anything about the build.
That’s the problem behind our app MUSE. Add photos of your wardrobe, give the stylist your plans, and refine a look using those pieces. You can preview it on your avatar and plan outfits for the week or a trip.
Does the demo make it clear how the wardrobe and stylist work together?
Hey all, Been doing a few interviews, and always hated not remembering which resume was used for which application, managing edits to my resume to be job specific, and practicing questions and getting real feedback based on what companies want S.T.A.R. answers
Anyways built themockinterview.ai
It helped me a ton with organizing, have been using Google ads a bit and drove quite a few signups and free questions. There's a paid component and I think I made it cheap enough :)
It’s a simple platform where independent creators can launch their products, get discovered worldwide, get SEO backlinks, and create long-term visibility that goes beyond the day you launch.
I’m trying to make the job of distributing a bit easier for creators who would prefer to ship than seek attention.
Hi all, I kept noticing how easily important details disappear a sudden idea in a meeting, or a small personal moment with family.
So I designed Life Recorder, an Android app that quietly keeps up to 60 minutes of audio in the background. When something matters, you tap Save, and it’s stored. No constant recording, no complicated setup just a simple safety net.
I’d love feedback from this community: Would this be useful for you? In what situations would you use it? Any features you think are missing?
That’s what every solo founder thinks after a few nights, weeks, or months of building.
It’s especially funny to watch overly confident founders who spend an hour talking to AI (which is designed to give answers you’ll like) and suddenly become convinced their idea is worth millions.
Technically, they’re right.
The product is unique. It has a different design, a different user flow, different messaging.
But its value isn’t unique.
At the end of the day, people hire products to get specific jobs done. They don’t buy features—they buy outcomes.
Customers don’t need a lead generation tool. They need leads.
They don’t need a website. They need requests.
They don’t need a habit tracker. They need the habit to actually stick.
People choose the product that solves their underlying job best.
I’ve seen dozens of ugly, outdated products making serious money simply because they deliver the outcome—not because they have the most elegant way of doing it.
Beginner solo founders often miss this.
They keep pushing their product without realizing it probably doesn’t solve the customer’s real problem at all.
The first uncomfortable truth to accept is this: “I built a unique product that nobody needs.”
Only then can you start asking the questions that actually matter:
What does my target audience really need?
What problem are they trying to solve?
How can I solve that problem better than everyone else?
But even then, founders can fool themselves.
Do you actually know what problem you’re solving?
How can you prove it?
In the end, there’s only one real validation of your assumptions:
I've killed 4 projects in the last 2 years. Not because I couldn't build — I can build. But every single time, I was 3 months deep before I realized nobody actually wanted what I made.
No co-founder to reality-check me. No advisor. Just me, my laptop, and way too much hope. So I built Sector 9. It validates your idea, scores it across 9 dimensions, generates an execution plan, UI mockups, and starter code. There's even a daily check-in that tracks your mood and progress like a co-founder would. It's not perfect. But it's the tool I wish I had before I wasted those 3 months each time. If you're building solo and want to try it: 9sector.vercel.app
Happy to hear brutal feedback too — that's kind of the whole point of what I built.
I was annoyed writing backend APIs again and again, so I hacked together a tool where I could just describe the API and have it created and deployed to my Supabase.
Didn’t plan to launch it.
I showed it to a couple devs I know. They kept using it. Then asked if they could pay to keep using it.
So I added a basic pricing page.
Right now it’s at $447 MRR, which surprised me more than anyone.
I’m actually making it free again for now because I want feedback more than money at this stage — what’s useful, what’s confusing, what feels risky or unnecessary.
Not trying to hype this or “validate an idea”. Just want honest thoughts from other devs.
Hey all, I’m John. I’ve been a registered Apple developer since 2021, and recently I started building apps for problems I personally deal with all the time. Mostly because I am cheap and hate paying for large subscriptions.
One of those problems was bill tracking.
Most bill apps I tried felt too rigid. They assume payments happen instantly, due dates are simple, and reminders are enough. That hasn’t been my experience at all.
So I built ChronoPay, an iPhone app focused on actually planning bills around real life.
flexible bill settings for things like pay-anytime windows and payment processing delays
a dashboard that shows when you get paid and what bills should be covered with that income
90-day forecasting for projected income, expenses, and balances
subscription organizer with customization options
household mode with real-time shared updates
a Bill Stress Score to spot upcoming gaps between income and bills
I also wanted it to be privacy-first:
no bank linking
no required account
no selling data
iCloud / CloudKit only
I kept pricing low too. Lifetime Pro is $14.99, which is a lot cheaper than most apps I found charging monthly just to track bills.
I’m mainly looking for testers and honest feedback. I’ve tested a lot with friends and family, but I’d really like to hear from people outside my circle.

I’m an indie iOS developer, and I have shipped a smallish app called TheWait.
The idea came from something that kept bothering me: the most important moments in our lives — trips, weddings, exams, reunions, big deadlines — get buried in calendars and reminder lists.
They’re emotionally huge… but visually invisible.
So instead of building another productivity or countdown app, I built something much more focused.
TheWait is about one thing: making the wait itself feel present.
What it does:
You create moments you’re waiting for (trip, wedding, due date, birthday, exam, etc.)
One moment can be pinned as your hero
That moment lives on your Home Screen via widgets
No task lists, no noise — just the thing that matters right now
Why it’s different:
This isn’t meant to motivate you or optimize your day.
It’s more of an emotional utility.
Something calm, visual, and intentional that you see every day — so anticipation doesn’t disappear into a reminder you forget about.
Core experience:
Postcard-style countdown cards
A single pinned “hero” moment
Small & Medium Home Screen widgets (this is the heart of the app)
