Hey everyone, lately I’ve been stuck on finding a worthy enough problem/idea for my saas. I just can’t find anything good; wether it’s way too difficult for me (or a small team) to build or it’s just not a good problem. Also I just don’t come across lots problems anymore nowadays. Do you guys have any problems or saas ideas? And how do you (saas-creators) find worthy enough problems/ideas?
​
Used Ai to correct my wording.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to build my own SaaS business in the future, not get a traditional software engineering job. My long-term goal is to bootstrap software companies and avoid raising venture capital if possible.
Right now I'm learning web development and wanted to check if my roadmap makes sense or if there are major gaps.
So far I know:
HTML
CSS (including responsive layouts, Grid, Flexbox)
Vanilla JavaScript
Arrays
Objects
DOM manipulation
Event listeners
CRUD-style projects (Task Tracker, Habit Tracker)
Basic state management
I'm currently learning Node.js.
My planned roadmap is roughly:
Node.js
Express
REST APIs
PostgreSQL
React / Next.js
Authentication
Deployment
I only started learnin last year so still got ways to go until i can confidently build anything.
A few questions:
1.Am I missing any essential technical skills for building and running a SaaS?
2.Would you change the order of what I'm learning?
3.At what point should I feel confident enough to stop learning and start building products for real customers?
4.Is there anything you wish you had learned earlier when you started building SaaS?
I'd really appreciate honest feedback, especially from people who've built and launched products themselves.
Thanks!
i run an ai tiktok slideshow account. zero followers, zero ad spend.
not showing my account here for obvious reasons, screenshot from a competitor doing the same thing and similar amount of views
one post using this format hit 2.4m views. then 3m.
format is simple: 4-5 image slideshow, text overlay, trending audio.
openclaw picks random slides from a collection of 200 images.
schedules 2-3 posts a day within a 6 hour time frame, randomizing the time it posts automatically (use socialclaw agent skill)
the hook is everything though.
these flopped:
these hit hundreds of thousands & millions:
works in any niche. stop talking about the product. talk about people's reactions to it.
one thing people skip: before posting on a new account, go like and save posts from similar creators first. algorithm needs to know who you are.
happy to break down the hook format, the content loop, or the multi-account setup. ask anything.
For most of my life I tried to be someone else. I'd find someone I admired, decide they were better than me, and copy them. That mindset pushed me into a business I never enjoyed and only started because I looked up to one specific guy. It failed. I felt completely lost.
Around that time I was obsessively tracking my sleep with a Whoop, trying to optimize it. I kept getting good recovery scores. And I was still exhausted, yawning through entire afternoons, dead by 2pm. That's when it clicked: the score doesn't do anything. It just confirms you slept well or badly. Cool. Now what? Knowing isn't fixing.
So I built the thing I actually wanted. It takes the data your wearable already collects sleep, recovery, heart rate, and turns it into a daily protocol instead of another number. It tells you what supplements to take based on your metrics, predicts your most productive hours and gives you the exact time window when you should do deep focus tasks and light focus tasks, it tells you how much caffeine you have in your system left based on your first coffee taken and notifies you when you should take the next caffeinated drink for maximum productivity, it even tells you when to nap so your energy lasts the whole day instead of crashing and much more...
It's on the App Store as RizeAI https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rizeai-maximize-your-energy/id6762402079. i built by myself, it's early stage right now, and I want honest feedback, what's confusing, what's missing, what you'd never use. Tear it apart.
KlipsWay is a streaming platform built for independent filmmakers, series creators, and the people who love watching their work. Creators can upload their movies, series, and documentaries while keeping full ownership of everything. Viewers can watch it all at no cost and if you find a creator you want to support, you can give them a Spark which goes directly to them. We’re also building out ad based monetization so creators can earn from their content as the platform grows. Whether you make films or just want to watch something you won’t find on the usual platforms, come check it out. klipsway.com
I developed Weather World because I wanted a simpler, more helpful way to stay ahead of the forecast. I truly believe that a weather app should be a tool that makes your life easier, not a source of distraction with ads and confusing menus.
How it helps you: The core of the app is all about visual clarity. I’ve focused on creating intuitive graphs that let you see temperature shifts and precipitation trends at a single glance. Instead of reading through long lists of numbers, you can visualize exactly how your day will unfold. It’s minimalist, lightweight, and built for speed—perfect for anyone who values a clean Android experience.
I’d love your support! Please give it a try and see if it helps your daily routine. If you find it useful, please recommend it to your friends! As a solo developer, your support and word-of-mouth are what help me improve and grow.

Hey everyone,
I’ve been building a tool called ValuEdge over the past little while, and I’m finally at the point where I want to get real users on it.
The idea came from seeing how inconsistent early-stage startup valuations are. If you’re not talking to VCs or paying for consulting, it’s basically a mix of guesswork, biased advice, and scattered benchmarks. I wanted to see if that could be structured a bit better.
Right now, ValuEdge lets you plug in basic startup info (revenue, growth, traction, market signals, etc.), and it gives back a rough valuation along with a breakdown of what’s driving it up or down. It also tries to compare you against similar-stage companies, although that part is still pretty early and being improved.
I’m not really trying to “sell” this yet. Mostly just looking for people willing to try it and give honest feedback on whether the output actually feels useful or way off.
If you’re a founder or working on something, I’m happy to run it through for you. You can just comment or DM me, or email me at valuedgeapp@gmail.com.
Also open to any feedback like:
Waitlist link if you want to check it out: https://waitlister.me/p/valuedge
Appreciate any thoughts, even if they’re critical.
Drop your link + one-liner below and list it on CLAPSTORM, the free weekly launch leaderboard I just built. Every listing gets a permanent product page with a dofollow backlink.
Full disclosure: it's brand new and will be filling the board for the premiere round. Listings join this week's round, where the top 3 get hall of fame status and #1 gets a published article. No pay-to-win, ever.
I'm going to be spending the next few months growing the domain rating so the backlink means something.
Also interested to see what you think of the 1 click near-instant submit feature that just uses the url of your app/startup to almost instantly fill in all details so you don't have to.
All feedback welcome!
I tutor locally on the side and kept losing 30 minutes every Monday to the same routine: open Facebook group, paste my ad, click post. Repeat 6 times. It was the most annoying kind of work because it required just enough attention to not be ignorable but was completely brainless.
So I built something. It's called Reposter. You save your message once, pick your groups, and it opens each one and pre-fills the composer so you just click Post. Built it in vanilla JS with Chrome Extensions Manifest V3, Supabase for auth, and Stripe for payments.
The hardest technical part was that Facebook's post composer runs on Lexical, Meta's own rich text editor. It rejects standard DOM text insertion methods completely. The fix ended up being Chrome's debugger API to simulate keyboard input at the protocol level. Took me a while to figure that out.
Launched with a free tier (4 groups) and Pro at $7/month for unlimited groups. Also added group discovery so people can search for niche communities by keyword and get recommendations based on their location and business type.
A few things I learned shipping this solo:
Would love feedback from other solo founders, especially on pricing and how to grow something this niche. And if you do local marketing through Facebook groups yourself, give it a try!
Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/reposter/klcefljmljgkojnjffjhpbmocnjdphlp

Always open to feedback and a rating on the store would honestly mean a lot. 🙏
Hey everyone,
I’ve been obsessed with one thing lately: why SaaS products fail to convert even when the product is solid.
After reviewing a lot of landing pages, it usually comes down to the same issues: unclear positioning, weak value proposition, and messaging that’s too feature-focused.
That’s why I built Launchrecord.com to help founders quickly spot what’s blocking conversions in their positioning and messaging.
Curious what you’re building drop it below.
www.launchrecord.com
We just hit 1 month + 3 days since launching Launchrecord.
273 users later, here’s where we are at.
It started as a simple idea: help founders pitch and position their SaaS clearly in under 10 seconds. No noise, no fluff, just clarity that converts.
In 30 days, we’ve seen something very clear:
confusion kills momentum faster than anything else.
So instead of just iterating randomly, we doubled down on one direction:
a complete, deep audit system for Launchrecord.
This new system is being built to go beyond surface-level feedback. It will analyze positioning, messaging clarity, offer strength, and conversion flow with a more structured and actionable breakdown. Not just “tips”, but precise fixes that can actually move metrics.
What’s happening right now:
We are still early, but the signal is strong.
Average engagement is improving steadily, and the direction is becoming sharper with each iteration. The goal is not growth at any cost, but building something that actually helps founders fix what matters: how they position and communicate.
The next version of Launchrecord is already in progress, and it’s a full step change in how audits are delivered. More structured, more precise, more actionable.
If you’re building a SaaS or struggling with positioning and messaging, you can try the current version now and be part of what’s being improved in real time.
Try Launchrecord here and see where your messaging breaks before it costs you users.
Thanks for being part of the early journey more coming soon.
We're getting ready to announce a new product and I'm trying to figure out which press release distribution services are actually worth paying for.
I've looked at a few options, but it's hard to tell what really sets them apart beyond pricing and the size of their distribution network.
If you've used a press release distribution service before, did it lead to meaningful results, or was the biggest benefit simply getting your press release published in more places? I'm interested in hearing what worked and what you'd do differently.
I built TestLaunch because I keep seeing Play Store developers posting that they need testers, feedback, or people to join their testing links.
TestLaunch is a free place to list your app, share your testing link, and let testers find projects that need help.
You can add your app name, platform, category, test duration, contact email, description, testing link, and what kind of feedback you are looking for.
The goal is simple: give Play Store developers one clean page to share instead of chasing scattered tester posts everywhere.
It is brand new, so feedback is welcome.
I'm currently building GoWeekdays, a SaaS platform that's still in its early stages. Instead of building a single product, the idea is to have multiple business apps under one platform.
I also want to mention that I intentionally released it early. I didn’t want to wait until everything felt “perfect” from my perspective—I’d rather get real feedback now and improve based on actual user needs.
Right now, we've started releasing a few free apps, including:
These are accessible here: https://apps.goweekdays.com
The main customer-facing platform is here: https://www.goweekdays.com
We also have several paid apps that are currently in beta.
One thing I want to be transparent about: I'm not using a payment gateway yet since I haven't opened a business bank account. For now, payments are handled manually and go directly to my personal account. I do plan to integrate Xendit once everything is properly set up.
One feature I'm experimenting with is an affiliate program. The idea is:
The goal is to reward people who genuinely recommend the platform instead of paying a one-time referral bonus.
I'm not here to promote it—I genuinely want to ask for advice from business owners and founders.
If you were evaluating a new SaaS platform:
I'd appreciate honest feedback, even if it's critical. I'd rather improve the product now than spend money marketing something people don't actually want.
Thanks!
I’m in the research phase for a SaaS idea and I’m trying to figure out if this is a real problem or just something I experienced.
It feels like every business ends up with data spread across multiple tools:
Each platform tells you what happened, but none of them really answer some questions for example:
I’m wondering if people would find value in an AI that connects all of these sources and sends a daily briefing like:
Revenue down 8% yesterday.
Refunds also increased 14%.
Recommendation: Pause Campaign A and reorder Product X within 5 days.
Not another dashboard, more like an AI business analyst that explains what’s happening
I’d love some feedback:
I help run Relevyn (relevyn.com) -- we track how brands show up when people ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, etc... for recommendations. Basically, SEO but for AI answers instead of Google.
We just opened up an affiliate program, and I'd rather be upfront that this is me recruiting affiliates than pretend it's a neutral post.
The deal: 50% recurring commission, paid out via endorsely. If you write to marketers, SEO folks, agencies, or founders, AEO/GEO is something a lot of them are starting to care about and almost nobody has a tool recommendation ready when it comes up.
Honest context: we're early. The product works and people are scanning, but I'm not going to oversell traffic volume or conversion data I don't have yet. If you want to kick the tires first, the scan is free and you can see your own brand's score without even giving an email.
Here's the Link to the program. Happy to answer anything about commission structure, what converts, or the product itself in the comments.
I made a little Mac menu bar app that gives you a time perspective right from the menu bar. I launched it on Product Hunt, and it turned out that 935 other products were launched alongside it.
I don’t have a huge audience to get upvotes, but I do have lots of Reddit karma. 😄
Have a look at https://timegauge.minilabs.cc/, and please reach out if you have any questions. There is a support page as well!
Here’s a 50% off coupon: PH50P
The app uses Apple Sandbox, is developer-signed and notarized by Apple, and doesn’t collect any data. It’s just a timer progress bar.
The app is currently pending review on the Mac App Store.
The discount code won’t work there, it only works with Polar.sh checkout.
Speak naturally, pick a tone, and Untyped generates a professional email ready to send via Gmail or Outlook in seconds.
Just launched today — would love feedback from real users.

Hey everyone - I’ve built Metro Remote, a secure AI-to-iPhone layer for React Native / Expo teams.
The idea is simple: AI can write code, but mobile still has a real-device bottleneck - installs, logs, taps, TestFlight loops, and checking whether a fix actually works on a physical iPhone.
Metro Remote lets AI debug, test, and ship React Native apps on your real iPhone from anywhere, including over 5G.
The connection between the AI agent and the device is secure, and the goal is to support the full mobile development workflow: build, run, debug, test, and verify fixes without changing your app.
I’m still in pre-launch, but the site is live., est. launch July 2026. I’m looking for early React Native / Expo developers to take a look, give blunt feedback, and potentially lock in founder pricing if it solves a real workflow pain.
I’d love feedback on:
- Would this fit your workflow?
- Would remote real-iPhone debugging save you time?
- What would you need to trust the security model?
- Is this painful enough that you’d actually use it?
Feel free to DM me!
Early access / founder pricing:
I post lists of websites from small devs every few days. Feel free to submit your project to the website - I'll make a list of the best submissions and randomly select ones to be included! And of course, feel free to share your work in the replies as well
