Giving away FREE Postgres databases, app hosting & S3 storage in exchange for brutally honest feedback

Hey everyone,

I'm the founder of SwyftStack and I'm looking for around 20 developers, indie hackers, and side project builders to beta test it.

SwyftStack lets you deploy infrastructure without AWS-level complexity. Right now you can:

  • Deploy managed PostgreSQL databases
  • Host apps
  • Create S3-compatible object storage
  • Get automatic backups
  • Migrate an existing PostgreSQL database in about 1.5 minutes
  • Copy your connection string and start building

I'm much more interested in honest feedback than a thousand signups.

You'll get free beta access. In return, I'd love to know:

  • Was anything confusing or frustrating?
  • Did anything break?
  • Would you trust this for a real project? Why or why not?

You can try it here:

https://swyftstack.com

You don't need to be an infrastructure expert. If you're building with Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, v0, Claude Code, or similar tools, you're exactly who I want feedback from.

Don't hold back. If something sucks, tell me. I'll personally reply, fix issues as fast as I can, and answer any questions in the comments or DMs.

My post comply with the rules.
Thanks

I built a free tool to help people discover everything they need before starting any business

Hey everyone,
I have been working on a platform that helps people quickly figure out everything they need before starting a business.

A bit of context:

Before AI came knocking, I had a short stint helping small businesses write business plans. One thing almost every client asked for was a complete list of requirements and an estimated startup cost.

The information exists online, but it is scattered everywhere. You have to search multiple sources, figure out what applies, research prices individually, and manually calculate the total. It takes a lot of time, and it is easy to miss important things.

So I wondered: what if there was a place where you could search for a business idea and instantly get a complete startup checklist?

That is why I built Hustlecare.net.

The idea is VERY simple:

  • Search for a business idea
  • See the full list of equipment, legal requirements, documents, software, and other requirements
  • Select what you actually need
  • Get an organized checklist with estimated startup costs that you can download

Right now it covers a number of common small businesses, and I am still improving the data.

I would really appreciate feedback from people here:

  • Does this solve a real problem?
  • What information would you expect before starting a business?
  • Which businesses should be added first?
  • Would you personally use something like this?

It is still a work in progress, so honest feedback (including criticism) is very welcome. My post comply with the rules 
Thanks!

I built this after quitting every note taking tool I tried

I built this after quitting every note taking tool I tried.

Thinking happens everywhere but the issue is none of it connects and nothing compounds. That is what I built Aevron for.

I tried everything honestly. Always stopped because organising it all, tagging, filing, giving everything a structure just consumed too much time and was not worth it.

The actual problem is that thinking happens in fragments. You capture something today, something else tomorrow and none of it talks to each other. Insights sitting right there across all your notes never surface. You end up going in circles, rediscovering the same things.

So I started building something to fix that. I am the founder of Aevron, fully bootstrapped, building this solo.

Everything you capture gets connected automatically. The system finds the relationships, scores how strong they are and tells you why two things are connected. It also synthesises across them, finding the actual theme a whole cluster of your notes is circling around without you ever labeling any of it.

Started as a side project but kept building on feedback. If you capture a lot and none of it is going anywhere, give it a try.

Still early, would love to hear what you think.
