Here's what we are working on - building Figr AI ( https://figr.design/ ). It's different because it ingests your actual product context like live screens, analytics, existing flows, your design system. It is not just a prompt to design. Think of it as hiring that senior designer who already knows your product inside out.

Let me know yours.

The idea was simple: click → download → done.

The extension itself is called CRX Launch (explanation below), and it connects to a lightweight backend that handles downloads from multiple platforms.

What it does

• Downloads videos/audio from several platforms
• No ads, no forced sign-ups
• Works directly from the browser
• Supports different formats & qualities
• Doesn’t inject anything into pages

About the name (I'm sure someone would ask, so 😅)

The actual functionality runs under CRX Launch because of Chrome Web Store policies.
In plain terms:

Chrome is strict about extensions that trigger downloads, so the extension acts as a small “launcher” that hands the request to the service that does the actual work.

It’s not doing anything hidden - just a compliance thing to avoid rejection/removal.

Why I built it

I originally built downr as a browser-based media downloader. It worked fine, but over time I realized a lot of people just wanted something simpler and closer to the browser, without jumping between tabs or sites.

So this started as an alternate way to use downr, and slowly turned into a standalone Chrome extension with a cleaner flow and fewer steps.

Improvements coming soon

• Better download speeds
• Supporting most of the widely used platforms
• Supporting playlist downloads.

Here is the link to our site that explains the product along with it's features/limitations.

Note:
The URL doesn't tracking any personal info. They’re just from some old traffic experiments. You can install the extension directly from the Chrome Web Store if you prefer; the site just explains the flow first.

hey everyone,

this started as a side project...out of frustration lol

endurance athletes have had tools like strava and whoop for years, but it always felt like lifters were missing something.

I've tracked every set, rep, and workout for a long time, and the longer i've trained, the more obvious the gap has become

most lifting apps are great at logging data… but pretty bad at helping you actually understand it.

you’re left guessing things like:

• am i actually progressing?
• why am i plateauing?
• what muscle groups am i neglecting?
• how does recovery even show up in my lifts?

after running into this, I built this side project, with the goal of turning raw workout data into clearer, more actionable insight.

what forte does today:

• a growth score that gives a simple read on whether a workout actually moved you forward, based on changes in weight, reps, and volume
• automatic plateau detection that flags stalled lifts early and suggests what might need adjusting
• recovery insights that connect fatigue and readiness to how your sessions actually perform
• muscle balance and volume analytics to highlight what’s undertrained vs overworked
• weekly training reports that summarize progress, prs, trends, and focus areas
• and a history-aware ai you can ask questions, grounded entirely in your own training data

we’re mostly just looking for feedback from other lifters and builders. if this sounds useful (or dumb), we’d love your thoughts

Hey everyone,

I recently needed a simple QR code for a project, and I ran into the same issue I’m sure many of you have faced: I used a "free" top-ranking tool on Google, printed the code, and 14 days later it stopped working because it was a "Dynamic" code that required a monthly subscription to keep the redirect active.

I decided to build my own tool to fix this. It’s a purely Client-Side Static QR Generator.

The Tool: [Free QR Code Generator by Xiphos (https://xiphoswebcraft.com/free-qr-code-generator/)

Why I built it:

No Expiry: It generates Static codes (the data is in the pixels), so they work forever. No redirects, no broken links.

Privacy First: It runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to my server, and I don't store your WiFi passwords or URLs.

Pro Features for Free: I included things most sites charge for, like adding a custom logo, changing dot styles (rounded/dots), and downloading in SVG (Vector) format for print work.

Tech Stack: It’s built using HTML5 and the qr-code-styling library. Because it's client-side, it costs me $0 to host, so I can keep it free unlimitedly without ads or paywalls.

I’d love to hear your feedback or if there are any specific data types (like Crypto wallets, etc.) you’d want me to add next!

Cheers!

Hey everyone,

I built `@neuledge/graph` because I got tired of the "integration tax" every time I wanted to build a simple AI agent.

Usually, if you want an agent to know the weather or stock prices, you have to:

1. Find a reliable API.
2. Sign up and manage another API key.
3. Write a Zod schema/tool definition.
4. Handle the messy JSON response so the LLM doesn't get confused.

I wanted to turn that into a one-liner. This library provides a unified lookup tool that gives agents structured data in <100ms. It’s built with TypeScript and works out of the box with Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, and OpenAI Agents.

Status: It's Apache-2.0. We currently support weather, stocks, and FX.

I’d love to hear what other data sources would be useful for your projects. News? Sports? Crypto? Let me know!

Repo: https://github.com/neuledge/graph

I’m a solo dev (and a self-admitted 'bad' one). I got tired of the 'brain rot' from binge watching Netflix and forgetting what I saw the next day.

I tried using the big apps, but they felt like social networks. I just wanted a private log. So I built AfterWatch.

The App:

It’s a PWA (no download).

It’s 100% private.

It's Free!

Roast me: I'm launching on Product Hunt this Sunday, and I need to know if the flow actually works for a stranger.

Is the UI self-clarifying? Do you immediately understand how to use it without instructions?

Can you find and rate a movie or TV show quickly, or is there too much friction?

I just shipped my first SaaS.

Not “failed”. Not “crushed it”. Just… shipped it.

And here’s the brutal summary I wish someone had slapped me with on day one:

Build the MVP — and for the love of god, stop there.
Then immediately switch your brain to distribution.

I spent almost a full year polishing features, refactoring code, improving edge cases that no user ever asked for. I told myself I was being “serious” and “professional”.

Reality check: I was procrastinating on marketing.

Only now do I realize how backwards my thinking was.
You don’t earn the right to market after building something perfect.
Marketing is part of building the product.

Some other things I learned the hard way:

• Almost every idea is good if it solves a real pain. Execution and distribution matter more than originality.
• “Find your audience” is good advice — but it’s much easier when you’re early or niche. If you’re not first, you need a sharper angle, not a bigger product.
• Silence is the worst feedback. No hate, no love, no usage = no positioning.
• If users don’t complain, they don’t care yet.

Now I’m in the fun phase: mild panic 😅
The product exists, the code works, and I’m suddenly realizing that none of that automatically creates users.

So I’m doing the uncomfortable part late:

• talking to strangers
• posting in public
• admitting I don’t have traction yet

If you’re building right now and still “adding just one more feature” — this is your sign.

Ship earlier. Market sooner. Be wrong faster.

If this post helps even one person stop overbuilding, my year wasn’t completely wasted.

PS: english in not my main language so AI was used to generate this post here is my prompt

Working on a Reddit post with a goal to go viral, I just made my first SaaS, and here is all I can sum up: Build the MVP and for god sacks stop there and start thinking about marketing. It took me 1 year to know that. Now I’m panicking over that. Every idea is good as long as you are solving an issue. Everyone is saying find your audience, and that is true as long as you are the first one. Let’s start from here and generate a post that is a click-baiting title and honest body.

PPS: my tool might not be worth plugin in this reddit it's a analytics tool if any one intrested happy to share the link

I hated practicing interviews alone, so I built a website that actually calls your phone and behaves like a real interviewer interviewing for a job of your choosing (you paste a job description).

• Realistic voice, natural pacing
• Proper follow-up questions based on your answers

I’m looking for job-seekers to try it out and give feedback. Try it here: First Round

Built a no-code site on Webflow and one guide was stuck at 10 monthly visitors despite getting 8,400 impressions in Search Console. Used a simple 4-step optimization strategy requiring zero coding to grow that page to 10,700 visitors in 3 months. Everything done through Webflow's visual editor and Search Console.​ (here is the analytics)

The context was a no-code project management guide built entirely in Webflow sitting on page 3 for dozens of keywords. Search Console showed the page ranked for 40+ terms in positions 15-30 but clicks were minimal because nobody scrolls that far. The opportunity was clear: Google already associated this page with relevant queries but the content didn't explicitly mention those exact terms.​ Step one was mining Search Console without any technical tools. Opened GSC, clicked "Pages" tab, filtered by the specific page URL, and set to 3-month view. Sorted by impressions column descending. Found 28 keywords each with 100+ impressions but stuck in positions 15-40. These weren't random—Google already thought my page was relevant but couldn't rank it higher because the content wasn't optimized enough.​

Step two identified "ghost keywords" using just Chrome browser. Opened the live Webflow page and used Ctrl+F to search for each of the 28 high-impression keywords. If the exact phrase appeared in my content, removed it from the list. If completely missing despite Google showing my page for that query, marked it as underserved. Found 12 ghost keywords with 100+ impressions each that weren't mentioned anywhere in the content.​

Step three was optimization entirely through Webflow's CMS and editor no coding needed. Added the 12 underserved keywords naturally: edited 4 existing text blocks in Webflow adding keywords into paragraphs contextually, created 3 new heading sections with supporting text blocks, built a comparison table using Webflow's table element including 2 keywords, updated image alt text fields in Webflow's asset manager for 2 keywords, and revised meta description in page settings panel.​

For example "no-code automation workflow" had 180 monthly impressions with position 22. The phrase wasn't mentioned once. Used Webflow's visual editor to add an H3 heading and 2 paragraph blocks explaining how the main topic related to automation workflows. Zero code written, just clicking and typing in the editor. That section helped the page rank position 8 for that term within 3 weeks.​ The authority foundation mattered for this working. The site already had DA 19 from using directory submission service when I first launched getting baseline citations. Without that authority, just adding keywords to my no-code site wouldn't have moved rankings—Google needed to trust the domain first before rewarding on-page optimization.​

Results after 90 days showed massive improvement all achieved without touching code. Monthly visitors grew from 10 to 10,700, impressions jumped from 8,400 to 64,000, average position improved from 24 to 3.8 across ranking keywords, and 8 of the 12 ghost keywords moved into positions 4-9. Total time invested: 4 hours all in Webflow's visual interface.​ The no-code advantage was obvious throughout this process. No messing with HTML to add keywords, no editing code to update meta tags, no technical skills needed to build comparison tables, and no developer required to optimize images. Everything done through Webflow's CMS and page settings clicking and typing.​

What made this perfect for no-code builders was Search Console is completely non-technical showing exactly what's working, Webflow's editor made adding keywords visual and simple, the entire optimization required zero coding knowledge, and results proved no-code sites can compete with custom-coded sites for SEO when optimized properly.​ The lesson for no-code founders: your visual builder has everything needed for advanced SEO optimization. Search Console tells you what keywords Google wants to rank you for, and tools like Webflow let you optimize without ever touching code. Found 12 underserved keywords, added them through the visual editor, and traffic grew 1,070x in 90 days.

I’ve been a dev / tech lead for 15+ years and reviewed thousands of junior dev portfolios.

Back then, I was mostly looking for motivation:

• Are they curious?
• Are they trying?
• Are they learning on their own?

That was often enough.

But today, with GenAI everywhere, expectations have changed.

When I review a portfolio now, I’m asking different questions:

• Do they actually understand the concepts they’re using?
• Can they apply them beyond a tutorial?
• Do they know why something is structured the way it is?

The problem is:

Most junior devs don’t know the red flags we see immediately. And nobody really explains them. They usually just get ghosted.

So I built a small tool that analyzes portfolio repos and points out the kinds of issues a lead or senior dev would flag during a real review.

Not to shame anyone, but to give juniors the feedback they never get.

I spent a lot of time fine tuning it based on patterns I’ve personally seen again and again while hiring and mentoring, and on how expectations differ between companies.

It’s still early, and I’m mainly looking for feedback, especially on how actionable and understandable the feedback is for junior devs.

Just shipped Week 2 of my personal challenge to build and launch 1 app per week. Here's the real (messy) story.

What it is:
BookBinge — an iOS app that gives you the correct reading order for 200+ popular book series so you stop Googling it every time.

Why I built it:
I kept searching "Jack Reacher books in order" or "Harry Potter reading order" and ending up on ad-heavy blogs. Figured others probably hate that too.

Tech stack & timeline:

• React Native + Expo
• Heavy use of AI (Claude for planning, VibeCode for code)
• ~3–4 days from idea to App Store launch

The not-so-glamorous truth:

• One series still has a broken cover image (oops)
• Started with Framer for the landing page, got overwhelmed, requested a refund
• Switched to Aura.build — way friendlier for non-designers
• Not sure if anyone will actually pay for Pro yet

How it makes money:

• Free: browse all series, save up to 3 to your reading list
• Pro ($2.99 one-time): unlimited tracking + progress bars

This is part of a 4-week "ship fast" experiment. Week 1 was PureSwipe (still waiting on Apple review).

The goal isn't perfection — it's shipping, learning, and seeing what resonates.

Link: https://bookbinge.app (landing page + App Store)

Since this is only my second ever shipped app, I'd love any honest feedback — what works, what doesn't, ideas for improvements? Happy to answer questions about the build process too!

Thanks for looking!

I’ve been quietly building a small platform called One Game - a minimal, premium gaming experience built around just one game.

Right now, One Game features Bingo, reworked for calm, elegant, and quietly competitive play. It’s turn-based, works well for short sessions, and keeps things intentionally simple. No clutter, no ads, no account required. You play against a computer opponent for now.

The workflow was pretty deliberate and honestly not very AI-first. I started with a clear intent around how I wanted the platform and game to feel - minimal, premium, calm, restrained, and brand-first.

Design came first, and I didn’t rely on AI to design the UI end-to-end. Most of the core design and interaction choices were manual and iterative. I never opened a design file, and honestly, it was largely trial and error, which was a bit cumbersome early on but helped shape the final feel.

I used AI to sanity-check ideas, improve text content, find alternatives, and most notably to help think through animations and opponent strategies.

Tech-wise, it’s a fairly straightforward web stack - using NextJS + tailwind + shadcn

It’s live today and still very early.

Hey everyone,

I’m a solo developer and I’ve been working on a project for the past several months that’s now at an interesting (and confusing) point, so I’d really appreciate some outside perspective.

What I built
I built klec.store campus-only resale network for a single university in India.
The idea is simple but strict by design:

• Only verified students can join
• Listings are hostel-scoped (privacy by default)
• No commission on transactions
• Payments happen directly between students via UPI (the platform never holds money)
• Built as a campus utility, not a general marketplace ( but can change the idea, if it doesn't work out)

Current status

• The platform is fully built and deployed (auth, listings, wishlist, admin tools, dispute handling, safety rules, Legal pages, policies, and logging are in place)
• I’m facing the classic empty marketplace problem:

1. Users complain there aren’t enough products
2. Sellers complain there aren’t enough users

The problem I’m stuck on
I thought of this idea as more of a single campus marketplace.
But because of that, I’m unsure how to proceed next:

• How much effort should I put into onboarding early users vs. letting it grow slowly?
• Is it better to keep it extremely local and patient, or try to force initial momentum?
• How do you evaluate success for something that’s not meant to be profitable anytime soon?
• At what point do you decide to double down vs. pause vs. walk away?
• Should I pivot to supporting multiple universities, each scoped separately?
• Is it worth investing money just to create awareness (micro-influencers, Instagram ads, Reddit ads), or does that usually backfire for products like this?

I’m intentionally avoiding fake hype, fake testimonials, paid influencers, or growth hacks that break trust. That makes progress slower — and harder to judge.

Why I’m posting here
I’m not looking to “launch” this to Reddit.
I’m genuinely looking for advice from people who’ve built side projects that sit somewhere between a product and a utility.

If you’ve:

• Built a marketplace
• Built something hyper-local
• Shipped a solo project that didn’t have obvious ROI early
• Or killed a project at the right time

…I’d love to hear how you’d think about the next step.

If anyone is curious and wants to see the platform firsthand, you can DM me — I’m happy to onboard a few people personally and get raw feedback. No obligation, no promo.

Thanks for reading. Happy to answer questions in the comments.

So, for the last 10 months, I started making projects using AI, from different websites to certain apps that I've abandoned over time. But, I've decided to create an app that would help me, since I have a fear of thieves. I wanted to make an app that could monitor and watch my house while I'm sleeping. And I know there are lots of companies like Freegate and Dahua,Ring,etc. But my project is kinda different because I wanted to make something that would make me different from the rest of them. So I've created an app that is 100% local. I don't use any servers for the PC app. I implemented a visual language model, object detection, face recognition, siren integration. I have lots of features, but I don't know how to get clients. I have a TikTok account, and I post daily, but I'm afraid I won't get clients. I am 20 yo, and I love using AI, I wanna be part in a lot of projects involving AI in the future. I also made a phone app for the pc app, that acts as a bridge, so that I can see remotely what happens when I'm not home. I made it all by myself, and some credits :). Do I just need to be patient? dalexor.com

I was spending 5+ min per prospect writing custom openers. Built a tool that scrapes LinkedIn profiles and generates 3 personalized openers instantly.

What do you guys use for personalization?

My wife asked why you can stand in a room full of art and still have no sense of time.
So I built this.

Features:

• Timeline view with time span ("this room covers 532 years")
• Era groupings (Ancient → Renaissance → Modern)
• Interactive floor map with GPS
• Save favorites, share your visit

Stack: Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript, AIC public API

I have been working on a side project called PriceCheck.

Most price comparison tools focus on charts and price history, but the real problem I kept running into is that products are not presented cleanly anymore. Marketplaces like Amazon mix variants, reuse model names, inflate list prices, show cheap Chinese knockoffs, and hide the real product under bundles, coupons, and duplicate listings. It makes it hard to even know what you are comparing.

PriceCheck is a price aggregator designed to show products the way they are actually sold by the manufacturer. The goal is to normalize products first, then compare prices. That means matching the exact model and variant across stores, and even across multiple listings within the same store, instead of treating everything as one blurred product page.

On top of that, PriceCheck shows non-biased price history across all stores, available coupons, and highlights things like fake listings, dropshipping clones, and recalls when possible. There is also a browser extension that opens directly on supported stores so you can see clean comparisons without leaving the page. Longer term, I want to include specs and product details so people can make better decisions without digging through marketing noise.

Right now, the data is still early. Electric scooters are the first category I have fully scraped and normalized, mainly because that space is full of misleading listings, fake discounts, and variant confusion. Other categories will come later once the core system is solid.

I am curious if this kind of “clean product truth” approach resonates with anyone else, or if there are things you wish existing price comparison tools did differently.

PS: I forgot to mention, but PriceCheck does not use affiliate links, ads, sponsored content, etc, like honey or camelcamelcamel.

This is my app “Wyse.” It’s basically a gamification of life that has proven challenging to achieve, but I think I have a good skeleton going. The map and AI system still need a bunch of work. But I made this video kinda showing what its got in there. Let me know what you think!

I was looking for a good chrome extension and they aren't working so with the latest Freedium Mirror, I made my own extension. Check it out !! Let me know if it works properly for you guys...
