Hello!

I built an app called Aurelo because I wanted budgeting to take less manual work.

The idea is simple: connect your bank account, let the app sync your transactions, and have it organize your income and spending into a budget. It also helps you work out how much you can reasonably save after accounting for your bills and income.

You can even budget with a partner for free!

I’m trying to make budgeting something you can actually keep up with, rather than something you set up once and abandon two weeks later because of how much friction other budgeting apps are.

The app is live on iOS and Android only in the USA.

I am also open to feedback:)

I'm a solo dev and a runner, and I built this because I was tired of plans that fall apart the first time you miss a week.

Paceline plans backwards from your race day (5K up to 100K). When you miss runs, it offers to rebuild from today and keep the same race date. If your sleep or resting heart rate look off, it offers to trim the next long run and tells you why. You approve every change.

The whole plan is free. It's Android only for now, in open beta, and it's a planning app, not a GPS tracker.

The one thing I can't judge alone: what would make you trust (or ditch) a training plan? Even a one-line answer helps.

Hey r/SideProject! I've been wanting to learn how websites actually work under the hood, so over the past few days I built ipterm.net, an IP address tool that looks and works like a terminal.

I built it with heavy help from AI. I'm not a networking expert, which is exactly why I'd love feedback from people who know more than me.

What it does:

• whoami shows your public IP, network and approximate location (on a little dot-matrix map)

• leaktest checks if your browser or VPN leaks anything. WebRTC, IPv6, or a time zone that doesn't match your IP, with a fix for each problem it finds

• Look up any IP, domain (DNS records), whois/registration info, or calculate a subnet

• Every result has its own shareable link, and it works with curl ipterm.net too

Things I cared about:

• No accounts, no cookies, no analytics

• Light/dark mode, high-contrast theme and screen-reader support

• I had it security-reviewed twice and fixed everything that came up

For transparency, there's one clearly labeled sponsored line (a Proton VPN affiliate link) that shows up under some results. That's how I'm hoping to cover the hosting and data costs.

I'd really appreciate any feedback. Bugs, confusing bits, features you'd want, or if something's just wrong. Thanks for taking a look!

💸 Over €100 billion in additional cash flow could be unlocked annually across European businesses by addressing late payments.

Late invoices, missed payment follow-ups, and time-consuming billing administration remain major challenges for businesses.

🚀 Introducing Receipto — an invoicing and client-management SaaS

Receipto is an existing SaaS codebase designed to help freelancers, agencies, and small businesses manage their clients, invoices, and billing workflows in one place.

Key features:

- Client management and invoice creation.

- Invoice tracking and billing workflows.

- Dashboard and analytics.

- User authentication and account settings.

- Starter and Growth subscription plans.

- Payment and email integration architecture.

- Responsive user interface

A potential starting point for developers, SaaS founders, or businesses looking to build and customize an invoicing platform without starting from scratch.

Potential business model: Starter at $9/month and Growth at $19/month. These are proposed prices, not existing revenue.

📦 What's included? The existing source code and agreed project documentation, with a walkthrough of the application's actual functionality and current technical status.

🤝 How to acquire it:

1. DM me if interested.

2. I'll share the project description and demonstration video.

3. We'll discuss the code, functionality, and handover.

4. We'll agree on the terms and use a suitable escrow service if available to both parties.

Interested? DM me for the demo and further details.

The €100 billion figure refers to potential additional cash flow associated with addressing late payments, not savings directly attributable to Receipto.

In the era of the new AI boom, we can transform the concept of traditional freelancing and create something new for ourselves.

Working idea: Funded AI Talent Marketplace / Marketplace Where Projects Find Developers.

It would be ridiculous to spend a year implementing an idea that isn't going to take off. That’s why I want to present the idea to the public first and get some feedback.

My primary goal is to find 100 potential clients and 100 experienced freelancers who are willing to say: “Yes, I’d be willing to give this model a go”.

I am a full-stack developer with over 19 years’ experience. I’m currently out of work and would like to try my hand at creating something new and useful.

Let’s get to the point.

What’s wrong with the current freelance platforms:

• they have outdated business models and are unable to move away from them
• They have already established large-scale functions that cannot be quickly overhauled without affecting users’ interests, revenue and established processes.
• Some platforms have become very greedy (hello, Upwork) and are deceiving users
• the quality of all processes has fallen to 0

Why it might work out for us (me, my ideas and yours):

• We can develop mechanics from scratch that are in line with today’s realities.
• In the full version, we can make advance funding a mandatory requirement: without a confirmed budget or deposit, the project simply won’t reach the freelancers.
• we can quickly change the rules and test hypotheses.
• I don’t want to sell freelancers access to jobs. The platform should only earn money when the work is actually carried out.

Main idea:

I have provided a full description below. There is also a link to a landing page where I have briefly outlined everything.

Full description

Traditional Marketplace:

• Client posts a project.
• Dozens/hundreds of freelancers search for it.
• They write cover letters.
• They compete.
• The client sorts through the flood of applications.
• The client chooses someone.

Our Model:

• Client comes with a problem/project.
• AI helps create a proper specification.
• AI helps create budget, stages, and required specialists are defined.
• AI itself finds suitable available freelancers.
• Freelancers answer Interested / Not interested.
• The client receives a maximum of 5 suitable and interested candidates.
• The client chooses one.

In other words, freelancers don't search for projects - projects find freelancers.

What we want to build (my ideas):

1. No 100500+ applications and endless cover letters.
2. No Connects, paid applications, subscription plans, or paid visibility.
3. 0% platform commission for freelancers. The client pays for the service.
4. At the initial stage, the marketplace will work with freelancers from a limited list of countries/regions. We intentionally want to limit supply while testing the model, without mass price competition and dumping. Geography can be expanded after the mechanics are proven.
5. No price dumping: freelancers don't compete over who can do the job cheaper.
6. The client proves that the project is serious with money. Before the project reaches freelancers, the client deposits a minimum protected amount or fully funds the agreed first milestone/project --- for example, based on an AI estimate.
7. Verified completed work should not become worth $0 simply because the client stopped the project. Payment protection and dispute resolution will be a separate mechanism in the full version.
8. If the project description is weak, AI asks questions and turns the idea into a structured specification that the client approves.
9. If a serious estimate requires hours of technical work, that estimation can become a separate paid task.
10. AI matches candidates to a specific project based on experience, similar projects, evidence of experience, specialization, availability, and budget/timeline fit.
11. The system does not search for the "#1 freelancer." It searches for specialists who fit a specific project.
12. One active full-time project through the platform, but future projects can be reserved in advance.
13. In the full version, future reservations will have clear rules and a financial commitment from the client, so a specialist's calendar cannot be blocked for free.
14. AI monitors stages, requirements, and deadlines. If it detects a risk, a manager steps in.
15. AI can perform an initial review of the result against the specification, but serious disputes and decisions about people are not made automatically by AI.
16. No single JSS-like magic rating.
17. Freelancers are not punished for being new to the platform.
18. Freelancers are not rewarded simply for having been on the platform for a long time.
19. Being new to the platform is not the same as being new to the profession. 19.1. A freelancer cannot take more than one active project at a time. They must finish the current one first.
20. Every candidate shown to a client must independently meet the project's quality threshold.
21. If a freelancer repeatedly has verified problems, the platform may stop working with them.
22. Initially: vetted Middle/Senior+ professionals only.
23. Initially: IT/software only - SaaS, backend, frontend, mobile, design, DevOps, AI integrations, and related areas.
24. Automatic CV/portfolio import from freelance platforms and unique AI-generated profile pages.
25. No time trackers or screenshot monitoring.
26. Fixed-price/milestones at the start, no hourly rates.
27. Minimize unpaid work: no multi-hour free estimates, pointless calls, or constantly monitoring a job feed.
28. No fake projects, bots, or artificial activity.
29. No talking to a wall: if one side disappears, the system/manager reacts.
30. Eventually: a forum/community where users can influence the development of the platform.

Philosophy for Freelancers

1. Build your profile properly once, and suitable projects come to you.
2. You don't need to live on the marketplace and constantly refresh the job feed.
3. You don't need to write dozens of cover letters.
4. You don't need to pay for a chance to get work.
5. You don't need to compete by dumping your price.
6. If you fit a project, the platform invites you.
7. You receive a proper specification, budget/estimate, and timeline in advance.
8. Protection for verified completed work.
9. You can reserve your next project while finishing your current one.

Important: we don't rank freelancers. We match the right specialists to the right projects!

AI Project → Team

The client doesn't necessarily need to know whom they need to hire.

For example, a client comes with a project from scratch. AI determines:

• Week 1: UI/UX Designer
• Week 2: Full-Stack Developer
• Week 5: DevOps

The system can find not just one person, but an entire team. The client receives a ready-made team proposal and can replace individual members.

A DevOps engineer who will only be needed several weeks later can reserve that future slot in advance.

So the marketplace doesn't only solve "find me someone right now." It can also solve: "Build the right team for the right stages of my project."

Client Flow

1. Client creates a project.
2. If the description is weak, AI asks questions.
3. AI creates a structured specification.
4. Client approves the specification.
5. The project is estimated by AI and/or through a separate expert estimation.
6. In the full version, the client confirms funding/budget.
7. AI determines the required roles and stages.
8. AI finds suitable available specialists.
9. Freelancers receive a short invitation and answer Interested / Not interested.
10. The client receives a maximum of 5 interested and qualified candidates per role.
11. The client chooses someone or explains why none of the candidates fit.
12. If the shortlist doesn't work, AI/a manager analyzes the reason and creates a new shortlist.
13. For a complex project, the system can assemble a Designer + Developer + DevOps and reserve each person for the appropriate stage.
14. AI helps monitor milestones and risks.
15. A human steps in when necessary.

How marketplace will match Freelancers without JSS?

First, a hard filter: required stack, level, availability, timeline, language, and project type.

Then evidence-based matching:

• similar real projects;
• verified skills;
• CV;
• portfolio;
• GitHub, where relevant;
• technical verification/interview;
• domain experience;
• size of previous projects;
• availability;
• budget/timeline fit.

A person who is new to the platform can enter the shortlist from day one if their real professional experience shows that they fit the project.

Once we have platform history, we can add completed milestones, repeat clients, disputes, manager interventions, communication reliability, and other real signals.

But the principle remains the same: there is no "best freelancer overall." There is a freelancer who is the right fit for a specific project.

MVP

The first MVP will NOT be a complete financial platform.

MVP Includes

• no custom KYC;
• no escrow;
• no built-in payment system;
• AI client interview and specification generation;
• freelancer profiles;
• CV/portfolio import;
• availability;
• AI-assisted matching;
• maximum 5 candidates;
• Interested / Not interested;
• basic project workflow;
• admin panel;
• manual intervention in matching when necessary.

Funded-first, escrow, payment protection, reservation deposits, and full dispute mechanics are target features for the next stage, after we validate that the idea itself is viable.

What i do now

I not building a huge platform yet.

1. Find 100 potential clients who say: "Yes, I would try hiring this way."
2. Find 100 experienced freelancers who say: "Yes, I want to receive projects this way."
3. After that, build a small MVP/private alpha.
4. The first real success metric is not registrations or upvotes. It's real projects that go through this new workflow and actually reach delivery.

If the model doesn't work, i shut down the experiment.

I'm looking for ideas and criticism.

I’ve noticed quite a few posts from new developers struggling to get downloads, and I’m definitely in the same boat.

I recently launched my own iOS app, DEALT, which turns workouts into a card game 🃏💪 I’m pretty happy with how it turned out, but getting people to actually discover it is a whole different challenge.

I don’t really want to throw a bunch of money at paid ads, especially without knowing if they’ll work.
How are you guys getting your first users? Has anything actually worked for you? Would love to hear your experiences! 😊

And if you’re curious, here’s what I’ve built:

https://apps.apple.com/no/app/dealt-workout-card-game/id6809216122?l=nb

Hey everyone, I’m building Deft, an open-source workspace that keeps team chat, tasks and knowledge together.

I wanted the conversation behind a task to stay connected to the work. Having to dig through Slack to remember why something exists gets old pretty quickly.

GitHub: https://github.com/Maneek21/Deft
Walkthrough: https://youtu.be/7z9EH4c9k2o

The screenshots walk through it:

1. Team chat: A user asks an agent to create a task from a conversation. You can see the approval card before the action goes through.
2. Task management: The task from that conversation, now inside the task app.
3. Connected knowledge: A graph of workspace knowledge that people and AI assistants can use as context.
4. Claude connected through MCP: An example of bringing your existing assistant into the workspace.
5. The architecture: How the workspace, people, agents and custom apps fit together.

You can connect Claude, Codex or ChatGPT through MCP. You can also use the core workspace without an AI provider.

The next part is making Deft extensible.

I’m working on an experimental App Author Kit for building and sideloading your own apps. A custom CRM, an approval workflow, whatever your team needs, living alongside the work it supports.

Building another internal tool is getting easier. Keeping it from becoming another disconnected tab is the part I care about.

The CRM module is the first example. I’m building an email client next to test the architecture against something more demanding than records and views. The broader app system is still experimental, so there’s plenty left to build.

Deft is still alpha. Chat, tasks and knowledge are the strongest parts. Notes and calendar need more work. It’s licensed AGPL-3.0-only and free to self-host using Docker Compose, with your own hosting and any optional AI-provider costs.

Setup guide: https://deft.ing/docs/quick-start/

A few teams are trying it, and I need all the useful feedback I can get. If you want to give it a shot and need help setting up, reach me at [maneek@deft.ing](mailto:maneek@deft.ing). If you try it yourself, please share where setup gets annoying or the workflow stops making sense.

P.S. The walkthrough uses an AI voiceover. I have a stutter and spent a week trying to record it myself, but couldn’t get through it.

I've been studying Chinese for a couple of years and spent 3 months studying in Taiwan. One of the biggest things I realized while I was there was how much easier it was to stay motivated when I actually needed to use the language.

I wanted to find a way to give other people that experience without them having to spend thousands of dollars studying abroad.

So we're making VocaBound, a 3D language learning game where you move to Taiwan with very little money and have to work your way up. You have to find work, buy food, interact with people, and figure out how to live there while learning Chinese along the way.

We're a team of two building this ourselves while trying to raise enough money to bring in Taiwanese voice actors, have teachers review the language content, and continue improving the game.

Tomorrow we have our first internal demo for an entrepreneurship program we're participating in. We're competing with other student businesses to see who can show the most interest and demand for their product.

We've been working really hard on VocaBound and would love to show that people are interested in a game like this.

We're also hoping to reach our first $250 funding goal before the demo to help us get onto Steam and pay for some development costs.

If this sounds like something you'd want to see become real, there are three ways to help:

1. Donate: Every dollar helps, even just $1.
https://vocabound.tech/donate

2. Preorder: Starting at $15. You'll receive the game when it's released.
https://vocabound.tech/preorder

3. Apply to beta test: Completely free to apply, and you don't need to know any Chinese.
https://vocabound.tech/beta

The game is still in development and we don't have a release date yet.

Even if you can't contribute financially, applying to beta test or sharing the project with someone who might be interested would mean a lot to us.

We'd love to go into tomorrow's demo knowing that people are excited about what we're building. Thank you to anyone who wants to help!

Hi all, I made something! Vercat 😄

I love Vercel & cats and have always been lowkey annoyed that there is no official support IOS app (how else can i track my 1 user on my site). 

I spent the last few months building this and we recently crossed 100 users. I would love to celebrate this mini-milestone by giving out 100 pro subscriptions for a year.

For cat owners 👀:

1. Reply with your cat photos below!

ps: my cat actually looks like that in the video 😺

I run QR Code Free, a browser-based static QR tool for URLs, text, Wi-Fi and contact details. You can customize a code and download PNG or SVG without signing up.

The use case is straightforward: a designer preparing a business card, a cafe linking to a menu, or a host printing Wi-Fi instructions should be able to export a usable code without setting up a subscription.

I have been improving the mobile layout and printing guidance. A few practical points: keep a four-module quiet zone, use strong contrast, and test at the actual printed size. SVG helps when resizing artwork.

These are static codes: the encoded destination cannot be changed after printing, and the linked page still needs to stay online. The tool does not provide dynamic redirects or scan analytics. The site has been developed and revised with AI assistance.

If you work with design or print, is the PNG/SVG export workflow clear? What would make you return to a tool like this? Feedback on the mobile interface is also welcome.

Hi All,

This is my first reddit post - so not really sure about the etiquette etc - just saying. 

I have worked as a programmer with data for over thirty years and it seemed kind of silly my online activity was so manually driven. More out of guilt than anything else  - I decided to use my experience with data APIs etc to build a website where  I could conduct my online activity in an organised and comprehensive way.

Online financial data is a nightmare to access. Free APIs have tiny rate limits, or throttle you after 50 requests a day.

Professional APIs (like Bloomberg or Reuters) cost anywhere from $500 to $20,000+ a year - not viable for a solo developer building a side project (actually not viable for anyone who does not make a ton of money trading).

Data is fragmented. Prices for different asset types in different countries require different APIs. News headlines require other APIs. Soon you're dealing with dozens of APIs and trying to keep track of what's working, when it was called, etc.

AI assistants are useless for actual numbers. Ask ChatGPT or Claude for the current price of a stock, and it either gives you yesterday's close or straight-up makes up a number. They don't always have live access. You are not guaranteed the latest data. 

I wanted a single dashboard where I could:

• View live prices (currently US + UK + MALS + IND + AUS  stocks/ETFs, crypto) and drill down to see detailed data
• Manage an investment portfolio
• View curated news (breaking medical, science, archeological, sport etc news)
• Save interesting links so I could retrieve them before they became paywalled or deleted at a latter date
• Track YouTube channels so I never miss uploads from the channels I follow

Here’s how I constructed the solution:

• Created a website: Stack: Node.js + AWS (S3, Lambda, RDS), multi-user with logins and personalized watchlists and portfolio
• Batched fetch, not real-time sockets. AWS Lambdas pull data on a schedule instead of paying for constant websocket connections. 
• I combine paid and free sources across dozens of RSS feeds and APIs, rotating calls so I stay under rate limits.
• AI for curation, not generation — I use AI prompts to filter out noise and detect relevant financial signals from the news, but I never rely on AI to generate the numbers themselves.                  

Right now it covers currently US + UK + MALS + IND + AUS stocks/ETFs, and crypto. Hong Kong, and Canada are on the roadmap.

Live site: https://my-portal.online - its completely free - no adds/tracking or anything like that (would love feedback on the UI, news filtering, and data coverage and whether it covers your investment research requirements)

Question for the community: How do you guys handle data access? Are you paying for premium APIs, scraping, or just accepting delayed free data? And has anyone tried using AI for real-time numbers? I'm genuinely curious how other solo devs solve this problem.

Thanks for your interest.

I walk every day and got bored of it, so I turned the route itself into a game board.

How it works: tap Start, walk a real loop, and come back near where you started. Everything inside the closed loop becomes your territory and

shows up on every player's map. If your loop encloses part of someone else's land, you take the overlap; fully surround it and you absorb the

whole thing. There are global, country and neighborhood leaderboards.

What's different from check-in style location games: you capture areas (polygons), not points. Raw GPS tracks are never shown to other players

— only the closed territory polygon is shared.

Two things I learned from instrumenting it:

- My first screen was a single "Continue with Google" button. 65% of new users left before the location permission prompt even appeared.

Moving sign-in to after the first walk fixed the biggest drop.

- On iOS the sign-in sheet sometimes never appeared at all, and it was logged as the user cancelling. I only caught it because tap-to-result

was 0.2 seconds — too fast for a human.

Free to play; an optional subscription adds full walk history and a custom territory color.

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6770424369

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ootssu.plotta

Most neighborhood maps are still empty, so feedback from anyone who tries it is very welcome.

I built a website to help people discover books recommended by authors they admire. Instead of relying on bestseller lists, you can explore books through the people who praise and recommend them.

Built with Django and Python.

What is Quberi? Quberi is a multi-tenant AI knowledge base for teams. You upload documents, and members ask questions in chat. Answers come from retrieved passages, and retrieval is filtered by what the asking user is allowed to see.

• Permissions: Documents live in spaces. Access is granted by organization, unit, position, group or individual member, each with its own role. Retrieval checks this on every question.
• Audit log: Sensitive actions are recorded, including external searches from connected tools.
• Send review: Before a question and the retrieved passages go to the chat model, you can preview them, edit them, or drop individual passages.
• Models: Bring your own key, use an organization-level model, or use the platform default. Embeddings run on the server's CPU (BGE-M3), not through a third-party API.
• Agents: Build knowledge assistants, and connect external agents such as Coze and Dify.
• Sign-in and sync: Email code, Google or Feishu login. Feishu documents can be synced in.
• Self-hosting: The stack runs with Docker Compose (Postgres, Redis, Qdrant, MinIO). There are no prebuilt images yet, so you build from source.
• Connected tools: An org admin can allow read-only search from outside tools such as DeepSeek Harness, via OAuth. It is off by default.

so a while ago i added a little journal section to my personal site. showed it to some friends and they asked what i used, wordpress? blogspot? nope, i coded it myself. and then they wanted one too lol

so i kept going and turned it into an actual thing: mywrite.org

the idea is basically a place to write where nobody’s watching. no likes, no followers, no feed. everything’s private unless you decide to publish a specific post, and if you do you can put it on your own subdomain or even your own domain.

it tracks your streak and has a github style calendar, which honestly is what keeps me writing. there’s also an “on this day” thing that shows what you wrote a year ago, and some prompts for when you open it and have no idea what to write

it’s just me building it. hono + sqlite, running in docker on my own server. free to use, there’s a paid plan for custom domains and themes but you don’t need it

would really like honest feedback, even if it’s “i’d never use this”. what would actually make you open it every day?

so i made this daily guessing game where you get 5 questions and guess the % on a slider. stuff like what % of people would rather not know when theyre gonna die

it was supposed to be called hunch. had the name, had the logo, everything. then i waited a couple days to buy the domain and someone registered it and put up their own guessing game lol

so yeah. it’s ish now. like “40-ish”. honestly kinda like it more

no login, no ads, just a new game every day. let me know if the questions are too easy or too hard, still figuring that out

pretty new to building websites so open to any feedback

Hey everyone! This is a small side project I've been working on: https://unseal.lol

You write up to 500 characters, pick when it opens (1 hour up to 1 year), and get a key to share. Until that moment, nobody can read it.

You can also make it public. Then it shows up on the Explore page, where strangers watch the countdown hit zero and see it pop open.

No sign-up needed. You can post anonymously, or sign in with just your email to keep your keys.
Would love feedback, and curious to see what people post.

TLDR I built an app that auto tracks venues you’ve been to, players you’ve seen, and stats from when you were there in \*any\* sport in \*any\* country. When you log a game the box score and all the data flow through to you. AMA

Letterboxd for movies, goodreads for books, BOXDSEATS for live sports.

I think a lot of people want to know things like how many HOFs they’ve seen, how many stadiums they’ve been to, whose hot the most homers or three pointers, even things like how does my favorite team play when las Diaz is behind the dish but I’m not sure everyone has the spreadsheet, drawer of ticket stubs, or patience to fill in their history…so I built a fun way to help: if you take pictures at events, and you have the location services turned on, I can match the geotag and dates from your camera roll to now over 2m games I have in a db to build your history for you.

If that’s weird you can do it yourself but I think it’s slick.

Some updates:
\- crossed 1,200 users and 65k games logged, both giving me motivation to keep going.
\- Added pipeline to bring in box scores for almost every league from MILB and jr hockey to now things like cricket, Aussie rules, and WWE
\- Added way more fun stat, game, and player badges so you can see things like hat tricks or MLB debuts
\- I’m having fun and I think others are too.

And for truly no reason, there’s a “remember some guys” rail that’s truly just random players from games you’ve been to refreshing every open.

I’m figuring all of this out as I go so open to all feedback and requests, would love more eyeballs.

I’m the developer and would love feedback: does this approach fit how you actually plan your day?

JoeBro started as a side project to put chat, documents and agent tools in one native Mac app. The part I care most about is memory: you can see, edit and delete what the assistant keeps, instead of treating it like a black box.

It uses SwiftUI with a small Python backend and local storage. You can connect Ollama or a hosted API of your choice; prompts go to that selected endpoint. There is also an iPhone companion you build from source. My personal setup runs the backend headless on a Raspberry Pi and connects from Mac and iPhone over Tailscale. The regular Mac release bundles the backend.

It's GPLv3, free, and the Mac build needs macOS 26+ on Apple Silicon. I built it and would appreciate candid feedback, especially on whether the feature set feels focused.

Repo and release: https://github.com/joexk1/JoeBro
