I lost my uncle to violence in Nigeria a few years back. Before he died he sent me a voice note of encouragement, and I still have it, but it’s frozen. It can’t answer anything I ask it now.
EchoVault is my attempt to fix that. You do guided check-in sessions with an AI biographer that draws your actual stories out of you, and over time it builds an Echo that talks the way you talk and knows what you’d say. Most things in this space build an avatar from a few minutes of uploaded footage. This works the other way around, so the Echo can answer questions you never explicitly answered because it’s learned how you actually think.
Every response is grounded in something you really said, which means it won’t invent memories you never had.
Text is free forever with unlimited check-ins and no card. $12/mo adds your real cloned voice. There’s a $99.99 one-time setup for a lifelike video avatar that includes 3 months of live video, then $18/mo after that. The video tier is a live face to face conversation, not a rendered clip.
You name custodians up front. If a full year passes with no activity on your account, your Echo transfers to them automatically. No paperwork for a grieving family to figure out.
I shipped text, voice, and real-time video together in June 2025, which as far as I know made this the first digital legacy product where all three worked at once.

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm the solo developer behind LazyBinger, an iOS app that turns your iPhone
into a universal TV remote — and then takes it one lazy step further.

If you've ever thought:

* "Where has the remote gone this time?"
* "I'm not getting up to press Skip Intro."
* "Why do I need five different remote apps for one living room?"

...then LazyBinger was built for you.

Instead of being just another remote, LazyBinger can watch your TV through the
camera. Prop your phone facing the screen and it taps "Skip Intro" and "Next
Episode" for you. You don't move a muscle. Everything runs on your phone —
the camera records nothing and no data ever leaves your Wi-Fi.

Free Features

✅ Universal remote for 12 TV platforms — Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, Samsung,
LG, Sony, Google TV, Vizio, Hisense, Panasonic, Philips, Chromecast
✅ One scan finds every TV on your network — no setup, no pairing dance
✅ Full keyboard for Netflix & YouTube searches
✅ Apple Watch remote
✅ Wake-on-LAN, sleep timer, one-tap app launching
✅ No account, no ads, no tracking
✅ Clean dark design, made for watching in bed

LazyBinger Premium Features

⭐ Camera auto-pilot — it reads your TV screen and clicks "Skip Intro" for you
⭐ Voice control — "pause", "louder", "sleepy time", 10+ languages, on-device
⭐ Your own trigger sounds — a finger snap, a whistle
⭐ Chain up to 5 actions behind a single word
⭐ Works with the screen locked

Everything runs locally 🔒

"An app that watches your screen and listens to you" deserves suspicion, so
here's the actual architecture:

🔒 The camera never records. Frames go straight into Apple's Vision framework on your phone, which reads the text on screen, and the frame is discarded.,
🔒Nothing is written to disk, nothing is uploaded.
🔒 It only runs while you've armed it, and stops the moment you disarm it.
🔒 Voice recognition runs on-device too, and the mic is only live while listening mode is on.
🔒 Controlling the TV is plain local networking — the same protocols your TV's
own app uses, over your own Wi-Fi. No account, no login, no server in the
middle.

Put the phone in airplane mode with Wi-Fi on: everything still works. That's
the whole proof.

Hi everyone!

I'm an artist/developer and I've spent the last few months building Art Atelier, an art reference app for people who draw or paint from life.

Art Atelier is a 3D art reference app for artists who want to study light. You pick from a library of 3D studies (the Asaro planar head, anatomy plates, classical busts), rotate them to any angle, then move a light around them and watch how the shadows and planes change in real time.

What's in it:

• 3D studies, including the Asaro planar head, anatomy plates (skulls, eyes, ear, nose, lips, hands, feet), classical busts plus a plain sphere for basic form practice
• Classic portrait lighting presets (Rembrandt, split, butterfly, rim, top, under, front), or you can just put the light wherever you want
• Controls for light intensity, fill, and colour temperature from 2700K to 7500K
• A value steps mode that posterizes everything down to 2 to 5 flat values

Most screen time apps just show you stats or block apps you can bypass in two taps. They don't create any real reason to change.

So I built one that adds actual stakes: get matched with an accountability buddy who sees your screen-time stats and keeps you honest, or join a challenge where you commit to a goal and put money on the line. Fail, and you pay. Succeed, and you build real discipline.

After months of building this thing, the first-ever StreakWars game is finally starting.

The rules are borderline stupid:
📸 Everyone joins the same War
⏰ You have to post proof before the clock runs out
💀 Miss once = you’re fucking out
🏆 Last person still alive wins the pot

That’s it.

No XP. No levels. No 45-minute gaming sessions.
We built it because we’re adults with jobs, meetings, kids and approximately 11 minutes of free time…
…but somehow we’ll still spend 45 minutes talking shit in a group chat.

So we thought:

What if the group chat WAS the game?
Something you check for 30 seconds a day, talk an unreasonable amount of shit about, and slowly watch your friends get eliminated because Kevin forgot to take a fucking selfie on Tuesday.
And now we’re actually testing it.

WAR #001 starts soon.

Which is mildly terrifying because this will be the first real StreakWars game ever played.

The rules will probably evolve.
Something will probably break.
Someone is absolutely going to get eliminated in an embarrassingly stupid way.

And one psychopath is going to outlast everybody.

So before we start, Reddit gets to decide something:
What would YOU be most likely to survive?
A) Daily selfie
B) Outfit check
C) Photo of your lunch
D) Couples selfie
E) Something considerably more unhinged — comment it 👇

Also:
How many days do you genuinely think you’d last?
I’m saying 6 before half of Reddit forgets. 😂
If you find StreakWars right now, you’re ridiculously early.

No giant community. No polished corporate launch.
Just War #001 and a bunch of strangers about to find out who has their shit together.

May the least forgetful idiot win. 🫡

Hi all,

As i'm working on growing launchpact.io i'm seeing a lot of unprepped launches and as the day unfold they don't get much visibility and end up with a failed launch.

This is one of the reasons i build launchpact.io, if you have an upcoming launch do check it out and prep ahead of time, i also added this checklist that can give some hints too, have a read.

Good luck everyone!

tldr: My first AI SaaS failed because I built blindly, outsourced marketing, and had no clear ICP. My second product hit $5k/mo in 3 months because I built an audience first, obsessed over SEO and distribution, and targeted a specific niche.

I launched my first AI SaaS last year, kept it alive for about a year now. It's making less than $50 mrr and i'm thinking of closing it.

Here's what went wrong:

• I just built what I thought was cool and useful without confirming any traction.
• Biggest regret is outsourcing marketing and distribution. I wasn't an expert and thought outsourcing was the best way.
• The product didn't have a clear ICP at all. I kept adding more and more features, hoping to get more users but it just led to confusion and reaching absolutely no one.
• Didn't solve my own problem. I wasn't using it daily, which made me lose motivation, and that carelessness was reflected in the product.
• I didn't prioritise SEO and GEO. Never really studied how it works, didn't think it was important.

For the second one, I changed everything.

SocialCrawl launched in April this year and it's already making $5k a month in revenue and en route to $10K this July.

Here is what actually worked this time around:

• I figured out distribution and marketing before I even decided what to build.
• I built an audience first, growing to 5,000+ followers on Threads and 1,500+ on X.
• Being a developer myself, I chose to build an API dev tool that I could easily market to my own community.
• I built something that solves my own problem and was also validated by talking to my ICPs and researching communities.
• My ICP was specific (developers building something based on social media data) and I knew where they were hanging around
• I focused heavily on SEO, posting blogs and building backlinks from day one.

Overall, failing the first time taught me you have to know who you're selling to, show up where your users hang out and be obsessed with distribution.

This is the app (called "LWP+"), and I've shown here the video that I've published there:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lb.lwp_plus

At first I was happy about what I created on the video, but then I thought that it looks more like a tutorial here, instead of maybe focusing on what's the most interesting. Surprisingly, ever since I've published the video, it actually got quite some views already (29 after 2 days), despite the fact it's a bit of a niche app. Still, I think maybe it can be improved.

I want to know what you guys think about the video (which has audio, BTW).

Here's about the app:

It's a live wallpaper app, that has these features:

1. Allows showing color/image/animation/video as content (users choose the file from the file system). No special effects so some users that complain about the dimming/zooming effects actually like using it. Users can also choose whether it should scroll or the type of automatic cropping.

2. Allows (some) control over the Material-You colors of the OS, as it lets users to choose the colors to report the OS about what's on the wallpaper. This means that like on Android 17, users can choose the colors they want (if the OS supports it) despite the content not matching it.

3. Setting of double-tap to lock the screen. Some launchers don't offer this, so I added it to the app too.

4. Some extra flags that (on some devices) should affect colors further, such as black/white text and/or black/white icons on status bar and/or lock screen and/or launcher.

The app is completely free, ad-based. Users can remove the ads including by just watching full screen ads. Originally it was created to offer dark-theme on devices as it wasn't a toggle on the OS settings, and was based on the colors of the wallpaper.

Update: Thank you all for the amazing feedback and for giving TKB Assistant a try! I really appreciate all the comments, suggestions and criticism. I honestly didn’t expect this much interest, and I’m already taking notes on things I can improve. 💚

App Name: TKB Assistant

What it does:
I built TKB Assistant because I wanted useful phone tools and an AI assistant in one place, without needing another account, subscription or cloud based AI service.

The main feature is JOLI, an AI assistant that runs directly on your Android phone. You download the model to your device and the actual AI processing happens locally, so it can work without an internet connection and your chats stay on your phone.

There are two models available, JOLI for more capable devices and JOLI Lite for phones that benefit from a smaller and faster model.

But TKB Assistant is more than just the AI.

Key Features:

Offline AI
Chat with JOLI directly on your device. No cloud processing is needed for your conversations.

Two local AI models
Choose between JOLI and JOLI Lite depending on your phone and the performance you prefer.

Storage Cleanup
See what is taking up space and find large files, duplicate files, old screenshots and other things you may want to remove.

Battery Health
Check battery level, health, temperature, voltage, charging information and charts showing how things change over time.

App Manager
See your installed apps, review their permissions and get a better overview of what has access to what on your phone.

Device Overview
Quickly check your storage, memory, battery and installed apps from one place.

Privacy
No account required and no tracking. JOLI runs locally on your phone instead of sending your conversations to an AI server.

Pricing
TKB Assistant is normally a one time purchase with lifetime access. No ads and no recurring payment.

Goal: Promo + honest feedback

Giveaway:
I have a limited number of free lifetime Google Play promo codes for people here who want to try the full app.

Just leave a comment if you want one and I’ll DM you a code while I still have some available.

If you do try it, I’d really appreciate honest feedback or critique, especially about JOLI, performance on your device, or anything you think could be improved.

Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tkb.assistant.app

I built Sitemapper after getting tired of checking a sitemap, then checking pages, then checking robots, then trying to remember what changed after the last deploy.

It does that in one pass. Give it a public site and it reads robots.txt, discovers XML sitemaps, checks live pages, and keeps a snapshot so later runs can tell you what actually changed.

The part I care about most is not an SEO score. It is catching boring regressions like a page turning noindex, a canonical moving, a URL disappearing, or the sitemap suddenly shrinking.

Free first scan, no account: https://sitemapper.oortstack.com/

If you try it on something weird or messy, I would like to know where it falls over.

As you might notice, some ui are a bit out of place compared to other stuff, and so I do plan on fixing the ui once I get done with the features and the logic of the game.
