PakBill is finally live on Google Play.

Thank you to everyone here who helped with closed testing

A little while ago I posted here asking for people to help test PakBill during closed testing.

A lot of you actually installed it, tested it and gave useful feedback.

That helped me fix issues, improve the UI and get the app ready for release.

PakBill is now officially live on Google Play. 🇵🇰

For anyone seeing it for the first time, PakBill helps you understand your electricity bill instead of just showing the final amount.

It breaks the bill into things like:

• Energy charges

• Taxes and duties

• Fuel price adjustments

• Fixed charges

• Other adjustments

It also has bill history, due date tracking and support for multiple connections.

The biggest thing I wanted to solve was simple:

Most of us pay our electricity bill every month without really knowing what makes up that amount.

PakBill tries to make that transparent.

Thanks again to everyone here who helped during testing. You genuinely contributed to getting it released.

If you try the public version now, I’d still love to hear what should be improved next.

Built a platform with 700+ FYP ideas and a project showcase so your FYP doesn't disappear after defense

Problem:

Most students don't get stuck on the actual FYP work, they get stuck picking an idea. And once the project is finally built and defended, it usually sits in a folder and disappears after graduation. All that effort, gone.

Solution:

So I built MyUni, a platform with 700+ FYP ideas across departments, plus a generator that creates unique ideas based on your interests. It also gives you a place to actually showcase your finished project instead of losing it the day after defense.

Main differences:

1- 700+ ready FYP ideas, and unlimited unique ones generated based on your interests

2- A public showcase so your project stays visible after graduation instead of sitting on your laptop

3- Notes sharing across departments and semesters

4- Discussion boards for the questions students actually get stuck on

Stage:

Live with 300+ users, growing 2 to 5 signups a day, almost entirely word of mouth so far.

The harder part wasn't building the idea generator, it was getting students to actually post their finished project instead of moving on the moment the defense is over.

I'd like feedback from other Pakistani founders and students. Would a public showcase attached to your FYP actually push you to build something better, or does nobody really care once the defense is done?

I turned your PakBill feedback into a new update

A week ago, I shared PakBill and received far more feedback than I expected.

Instead of just collecting that feedback, I started building it.

Here’s what’s new:

1- Home-screen widget to check your bill without opening the app
2- Complete Urdu experience with a better Urdu font
3- Support for K-Electric, SNGPL and SSGC
4- Bill due-date notifications
5- Download bills directly from the app
6- Improved bill details and dark mode

PakBill now supports 14 electricity and gas providers across Pakistan.

My goal is simple: make checking and understanding utility bills easier for everyone in Pakistan.

What should I add next: water bills or payment support?

Built PakBill after getting tired of confusing electricity bill apps in Pakistan

Disclosure: I built PakBill
AI-assisted writing: used to polish this post.

Problem:
Most bill-checking apps I tried were filled with ads and only showed the final amount. I wanted to actually understand where the bill amount was coming from.

Solution:
So I built PakBill, an Android app for checking electricity bills across 11 Pakistani providers.

Main differences:

  • No ads
  • No bill data stored
  • Shows unit cost, taxes, adjustments and other charges separately
  • Supports multiple electricity connections

Stage:
It’s currently in closed testing on Google Play.

The harder part wasn’t fetching the bills, it was normalizing the different bill formats and presenting the breakdown in a simple way.

I’d like feedback from other Pakistani founders:

Would the detailed breakdown actually make you use this instead of the provider’s own website?

How do I find agency owners willing to pay? I built a SaaS for agency operations

I've been building Agencly.app, a SaaS for agency owners to manage clients, projects, tasks, teams, invoices, contracts, CRM and other day-to-day operations in one place.

I'm at a point now where building isn't really the hard part anymore. Getting it in front of the right people is.

I've given Agencly to a few friends who run agencies and let them use it for free. They've found it useful and the feedback has been pretty good so far. But I also know there's a big difference between someone you know using your product for free and a stranger deciding it's valuable enough to pay for.

That's the part I'm trying to figure out now.

I'm already working aggressively on SEO and posting around twice a week across LinkedIn, X, Instagram, Facebook and Indie Hackers. I've also started being more active in relevant Reddit communities rather than just dropping product links.

But I'm not sure what I should focus on next to actually reach agency owners with buying intent.

Should I start doing cold email? Direct outreach on LinkedIn? Find niche agency communities? Try partnerships? Start running ads? Or keep focusing on organic growth until I have more traction?

If you had a working B2B SaaS and wanted to get your first 10 paying agency owners, where would you put most of your effort?

I'd especially like to hear from Pakistani founders who've managed to sell B2B SaaS internationally.

Stuck on how to get customers for my SaaS

Over the past two months, I have been developing my Software as a Service (SaaS) product and successfully acquired one paid customer last week.

However, I am uncertain about the best strategies for attracting additional customers. Should I consider hiring a marketing agency, or explore alternative options?

Any feedback or constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated.

I have validated the concept and completed the development, and I have also engaged several agency owners to test the product.

It's not a job posting or any job seeking post, I am asking for guidance from those who have built and launched SaaS.
