I've been building Hoops GM — a free basketball franchise manager that runs entirely in your browser (desktop + mobile, no sign-up).



You run the front office: trades, the draft lottery, free agency, the salary cap — then coach live games on a real possession-by-possession engine, with an owner who tracks your record and can fire you.



Extras: pick a "franchise idol" to build around, blitz games at up to MAX speed, chase a Hall-of-Fame dynasty across seasons.



Play (free): https://hoops-gm-chi.vercel.app

Would love any feedback on the first 5 minutes.

Hello Open Source community,

we’ve been building scibly an AI-native learning platform. The idea is pretty simple. You give it existing material and knowledge like your docs, blog posts, PDFs, ... and it creates an interactive course from it. You can edit everything afterwards and share the result anonymously or to your invited users.

Scibly is AGPLv3.

We appreciate all your feedback

I built tryproduck.com/audit, it walks your app like someone opening it for the first time and sends back every bug and confusing bit it hits. Over 650 startups have run it so far.

Hello Reddit!

I built an app and a website to make the I Ching more accessible to the general public. This is something I’m very passionate about and would love some feedback from the community.

Hey everyone, I’m Bailey, co-founder and CEO of Cal.com. I started building Cal.com at 17.

Since then, Cal.com has grown to more than 1M users, raised over $32M, and reached a valuation above $200M.

I’ve spent the last few years building, hiring, fundraising, and scaling in a competitive SaaS market. Ask me anything about fundraising, working with investors, growth, or the decisions and mistakes behind the journey.

If you’re building something, navigating your career, or curious about how companies get built, leave your question below.

Jacob Solano, Head of Partnerships & Community at Fibe, and I will use this thread to help prioritize what we cover during our live AMA on X on August 26 at 11:00 AM ET.

I’m working on a product for founders who want to make better decisions before spending time, money, or traffic on the wrong thing.

The problem I’m trying to solve:

A lot of startup decisions are expensive to validate.

Changing pricing can hurt conversion.
Changing copy can confuse users.
Changing onboarding can reduce activation.
Launching a feature can waste weeks.
Running interviews or A/B tests takes time and often requires traffic you may not have yet.

So I’m building Polyhyle: a simulation platform where you can model a product/business scenario and see how different synthetic user segments might react.

Examples:

• simulate a pricing change
• test positioning and landing page copy
• predict objections before launching
• compare feature concepts
• simulate user reactions to a competitor move
• estimate impact on conversion, churn, adoption, or trust

To be clear: I don’t think simulated users replace real customers.

But I do think they can help founders narrow down bad ideas faster, generate better hypotheses, and decide what is actually worth testing.

I’d love feedback from other founders:

What’s one startup decision you wish you could simulate before making it?

Around 2-3 weeks ago I launched my SaaS, SeoLoupe.

It is a lightweight SEO tool that helps you find and fix SEO issues holding your website back, currently I am at 432 users and 5 paying users.

Essentianly the main purpose is to help your website rank higher on Google search and LLMs.

Since I am always trying my best to improve the product, I am happy to answer any questions or any feedback in the comments.

(here is the product if you want to check it out)

kept losing weeks pitching funds that were never going to write us a check. Wrong stage, wrong sector, or they'd quietly stopped writing at our size and their site still said otherwise. You find out after the third unanswered follow-up.

So I built Fund Fit. Land on a VC's site, click once, and it reads their thesis, portfolio and check sizes, then scores you against them. Number out of 100, letter grade, and a breakdown of sector, stage, check size and thesis fit. Geography is a hard fail, since that's the mismatch that wastes the most time.

The useful part isn't the A's. It's the C's and F's. Knowing a fund is a dead end before you chase a warm intro for two weeks beats finding one more maybe.

It's free. No paywall, nothing to upgrade to. I just want to know if the grades are right.

Feedback I'd like:

1. What's missing that would make you keep it installed?
2. Do you find this useful at all?

I'm the founder, happy to answer anything.

This week I spent some time improving the tennis section on https://www.sportlive.win/?league=tennis.atp

I wanted a simple way to follow ATP matches, scores, and players without bouncing between multiple sites, so I've been building it out little by little.

What did you ship this week? Curious to see what everyone is working on 👇

hey builders,

i start the year with goals i want to achive at the end of each year and by the end i become flat with lot of things to be achieved.

recntly i came across - a japanese method which will help to achive my goal and it goes by name HARADA method.

this method -  guides individuals to break a major goal into eight core pillars, each supported by eight concrete, daily behaviors.

The result is a 64-cell “action matrix” that turns ambition into disciplined execution

so i have build something in lovable - i hope this helps me toachieve my goal.

also i am validating is this right idea to build so that i can help people achieve goals before building this into product.

here is the link for the app - https://michi64.lovable.app/

i will be happy if i can help someone to achieve the goals with my app

i am open for feedbacks from fellow builders

I wanted to gift a Spotify Premium and realized there’s no simple way to do it, or more so kind of awkward.
