Bitch, my driver quit!
This is Karsan’s autonomous e-ATAK in Norway. An electric bus with no driver is still weird as hell to watch.

As cities move toward autonomous bus, electric bus, and hydrogen bus technologies, the technical side is exciting — but the social question is harder: are people ready for public transport innovation if it means fewer driving jobs? Companies like Karsan are part of this broader shift toward zero-emission and smart mobility.
I originally built KeywordKick because I got tired of switching between GA4, GSC, rank trackers, audits, and competitor tools just to figure out what was happening.
You can connect everything in one place, track rankings, run audits, monitor competitors, and ask questions like:
“Why did traffic drop?”
“What should I fix first?”
“Which competitor is growing fastest?” or more complex questions...
There’s a fully free account right now if anyone wants to test it and give feedback.
Is anyone using an AI SEO agent that can actually work with all of these together at the same time?
Not just dashboards or disconnected reports, but an actual workflow where the AI can use all of that context together.
Most tools I’ve tested still feel very siloed.

$1.7k in the first month from our SaaS, but still no real growth channel. What would you do?
Launched about a month ago.
Right now we have around 29 users.
Some free, some paid.
Nowadays MMR is roughly $1.1k so far.
The weird part is every paying customer came through people we already knew somehow.
Friends, referrals, warm intros, old connections.
Which makes me wonder:
is this actual validation,
or are we just sitting inside our own network bubble?
We tried a few launch platforms.
Started working on SEO too.
But the numbers are pretty rough right now:
around 2k impressions a day,
maybe 1–2 clicks.
So traffic exists in theory, but not in any meaningful way yet.
And honestly, after launching, we already started wanting to redesign parts of the product.
Funny how things feel great before launch and suddenly look questionable once real users touch them.
Curious how other founders got past this stage.
Did anyone else start with “people you know” revenue first, then eventually figure out a repeatable acquisition channel?
What actually ended up working?
Also genuinely curious about Reddit ads for SaaS.
Worth testing this early, or mostly just an expensive way to burn cash?
