Our Last month's average order value: ₹82k. We're opening a few ₹10k–20k portfolio slots. The catch? Your product has to be worth showcasing—and even better if it's unlike anything we've built before.

Every once in a while, we like to step outside our comfort zone.

Most of our work comes from long-term clients and referrals, and last month's average order value was ₹82k. But for the next few projects, we're opening a handful of portfolio slots in the ₹10k–20k range.

Why?

Because we're looking for products that challenge us—ideas that solve interesting problems, belong to unique industries, or push us into territory we haven't explored before.

This isn't a discount for everyone. It's our way of investing in products we'd genuinely be excited to build and showcase.

If you think your project fits that description, send me a DM or comment here - with what you're building.

If you'd like to know more about us and the kind of products we build, have a look at FSA Studio.

Anyone else addicted to the first week of a new project?

I've realized something recently.

Long-term clients are incredible. They're built on trust, the work gets smoother, and you spend less time proving yourself.

But there's a different kind of excitement that comes with a completely new client.

New industry. New workflow. New constraints. New problems you've never had to solve before.

Every project forces you to think differently, question your assumptions, and learn something you probably wouldn't have discovered otherwise.

I still value long-term relationships the most.

I just don't think I ever want to stop chasing projects that make me feel like a beginner again.

Does anyone else feel this way?

I spent the last few weeks building two AI products—one that automates industrial inquiry quotations from messy customer requests, and another that helps filmmakers create AI-powered videos with versioning capability. Different industries, same surprisingly human problem.

One of the things I enjoy most about building products is getting dropped into an industry I know almost nothing about.

Every project starts the same way. I think the problem is going to be technical. After a few conversations, I realize it almost never is.

Over the past few weeks, I built two AI products for completely different industries.

The first helps industrial sales teams handle customer inquiries that arrive as emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, and scanned documents. Instead of manually searching thousands of products, preparing quotations, tracking approvals, and matching purchase orders, the platform keeps the entire process organized and dramatically reduces repetitive work.

The second is for filmmakers and creative studios. It brings scripts, characters, locations, storyboards, shot lists, visual generations, and revisions into one collaborative workspace, making it much easier to iterate on ideas without losing previous versions or creative direction.

On paper, these products have almost nothing in common.

One is built for distributors. The other is built for storytellers.

Yet they were solving the exact same problem.

People weren't struggling because they lacked expertise. They were drowning in repetitive decisions, scattered information, endless context switching, and manual coordination between people.

That realization has probably been the biggest lesson for me.

Good software isn't about replacing people. It's about removing friction so they can spend more time doing the work they're actually good at.

The most satisfying moments weren't watching automation run. They were hearing things like, "This used to take us an entire day," or seeing someone focus on making decisions instead of managing processes.

Working across completely unrelated industries has also changed how I think about product design. Instead of asking, "What feature should I build next?", I now ask, "What's the decision this person makes fifty times a day that software could make easier?"

That's usually where the best products begin.

Has anyone else built products for completely different industries and ended up discovering they were really solving the same problem underneath?

After Months of Experimenting on Reddit, the Most Valuable Thing I Found Wasn't in the Posts

For the past few months, I've been experimenting on Reddit more systematically than most people probably should. I built my own tools to track posts, comments, discussions, and patterns across different communities, trying to understand what actually works and what doesn't.

Here are all the post experiments I have done till now (check my profile out)

\\- Posted free offers

\\- Posted low-cost offers

\\- Tried direct outreach

\\- Tested controversial and rage-bait topics

\\- Tracked comment behavior and engagement patterns

\\- Followed where conversations actually led

Most of what people say works didn't. Most "opportunities" weren't really opportunities either - most of them would land you in a telegram group. But somewhere along the way, I stumbled onto something far more valuable than content, engagement, or growth - that is ......

\*\*I'm interested in relationships built on mutual value. If we connect, there should be a clear benefit for both sides.\*\*

What is the most mind-numbing manual task you or your team repeat every single week?

I spend my days architecting complex workflows—things like AI sales agents that handle inbound and book directly into Google Calendar, or data pipelines that filter and summarize massive amounts of information.

But I'm curious about the reality of operations outside my immediate tech bubble.

Business owners: what is the one repetitive, soul-crushing process in your day-to-day that you know should probably be automated by now, but you just haven't found the time or the right tool to fix it?

Drop your biggest bottleneck below. I want to see what actual operational friction looks like on the ground right now. (If I know of a clean architecture approach or a cost-effective model like Gemini 1.5 Flash that could solve it easily, I’ll point you in the right direction).

[For Hire] I build enterprise AI agents and complex n8n workflows. I'm taking on a few custom builds this week for a flat $100.

I’m a Senior AI Automation Engineer. I usually build complex agentic workflows, autonomous booking systems, and full-stack apps. Right now, I want to tackle some fresh, interesting problems outside my day-to-day.

For a flat $100 (₹10k), I will build any automation or AI agent you throw at me. Zero conditions. No retainers. Delivery in 3 days.

My standards:

  • Advanced n8n: Complex, self-routing pipelines and automated data extraction.
  • Cost-Optimized AI: Smart model routing (e.g., Gemini 1.5 Flash) to keep your API costs low.
  • Clean Architecture: Production-grade, maintainable logic.
  • Infra: Self-hosted GCP environments (Docker/Caddy).

I am only taking on a handful of projects that actually challenge me. If you have a massive manual bottleneck or an agent idea you haven't been able to execute, DM me the specs. If it catches my interest, I’ll build it.

I'm a Senior AI Automation Engineer. Tell me your biggest manual bottleneck, and I'll map out exactly how to automate it for free.

I build enterprise AI agents and complex n8n workflows for a living. I have some downtime this week and want to flex my architecture muscles.

Drop a comment with a manual process that is eating up your team's time. I will reply with:

  • The exact tools you need (n8n, specific LLMs, etc.)
  • The step-by-step logic to build it
  • How to keep API costs down (e.g., when to use Gemini 1.5 Flash instead of heavier models)

Ask away. Let's kill some busywork.

I built an inbound client machine on Reddit using just value-driven comments. Happy to help you figure out your own inbound systems. AMA.

Everyone complains that getting clients right now is impossible, but niche subreddits are basically unfiltered lists of business owners begging for solutions.

I run a technical consultancy, and almost all my high-ticket leads come from just hanging out here and solving problems. Instead of telling people I build AI agents, I wait for a founder to complain about their sales team dropping the ball on follow-ups. Then, I explain how they can replace their static contact forms with an autonomous agent that handles conversational booking and syncs right to Google Calendar.

Show your raw building process, and the clients will come to you.

I want to help some of you get out of the cold-outreach grind. Drop your business type or service below, and I’ll give you a quick breakdown of how you can build an automated, inbound engine to attract clients without spending a dime on ads.

I’ve scaled my freelance consulting entirely through Reddit by doing one thing: giving away the architecture. Let me help you out.

If you want to land freelance consulting gigs on Reddit, you have to stop acting like a junior dev looking for a task, and start acting like a CTO solving a business problem.

When I see a thread where a founder is complaining about API costs for their AI features, I don't just say "I can fix it." I lay out exactly how switching to lighter, optimized models like Gemini 1.5 Flash for routine summarization tasks can slash their operational costs without losing quality. I explain the exact data ingestion logic they need.

By the time they finish reading the comment, they already trust me enough to hand over the keys to their backend.

If anyone is currently trying to build complex workflows, automated data extraction, or AI-driven apps and feels stuck, drop your problem below. I’m happy to look at your logic and help you untangle it.

Remote workers complain about "burnout," but you won't even pay 1 USD for an automation to do your actual job.

Look, the secret is out. Half of you "remote workers" are just doing glorified data entry and complaining about how stressed you are.

I built an end-to-end pipeline that basically replaces your entire daily workflow. It automatically scrapes your industry news leads, pulls the context on the clients, drafts your daily emails, and then just WhatsApps you the summary so you know what happened. I'm essentially openclawing your entire 9-to-5.

I offered to set this up for a few remote workers I know so they could actually take a break. The catch? I asked for a tiny licensing fee. Suddenly, everyone is acting like I'm asking for their firstborn child. They want me to just give them the architecture for free so they can sit on the couch playing video games while my tech does their job.

Will you guys even pay 1 USD for a system that literally saves your job, or are you all just completely allergic to paying for software?

Honestly, I should just pitch this directly to your bosses and replace you all. It would be infinitely easier than dealing with people who want everything handed to them for free.
