I keep downloading fitness apps and never using them. tried everything - myfitnesspal, nike training, all of them. download, use twice, delete.
so im building something different. app tracks your actual workouts using your phone camera (works offline, no cloud bs). when you skip workouts it roasts you. when you try to open instagram or tiktok it makes you do pushups first. ( i have integrated like 28 exercises)
still early but the camera tracking works pretty well. reps get counted automatically and it knows if you are cheating, will also detect bad posture etc.
Curios to see your comments, roasting etc. If you want to get involved in this project, please dm me.
So,
about a year ago I was laying in bed with my at the time fiancé, watching some Star Trek.
And while watching we kept having to pause and go over the vocabulary between what was said and the subtitles. We're a bilingual household, and so much of what was said in the video we, obviously, don't use on a daily basis.
And I just thought. Wow, it sure would be fucking nice if I could take a link to a video I want to watch, get the vocabulary for it, and build some flashcards so I can build useful fluency based on the media we're consuming together.
I check the internet because surely something like this exists. It doesn't.
Surely I can figure this out. Right?
I get started trying to get something simple working.
And then
I lost my job.
Had to go freelance.
Got married.
Got a new job.
Moved.
And now we're expecting a baby.
Well, I can't accept that I'm going to have bilingual child without me being perfectly bilingual as well. So I get busy again.
And here's what I have to show for it.
On this website I can drop-in any youtube link in the language I want to learn and crate a custom vocabulary deck based off what's being said.
I can choose to ignore basic vocabulary and names, and it will even save the words I already learned and not pull those words when building a new deck
It will show me the most used words in order of frequency, show an interactive transcript of my target language, with word translation on mouseover, and on click take me to that exact section of the video. The translations aren't always perfect right away, but it's close enough and I can edit them on the fly.
And ofcourse, it builds me a deck of video specific flashcards for spaced repetition style memorization. And even has some matching/fill in the blank vocab mini-games to keep things fresh
So that's my dream language learning site. Up and running. It's a little janky. It doesn't work with Netflix. But it's mine.
My ex-fiancé wasn't that impressed, but I figured since it's useful to me, it will be useful to someone else here as well.
Due to API stuff I can't exactly leave it completely open or I'd get charged more money than I have to spare at the moment. But if you visit the site you can use it to make 2 decks for free, and if you register your email you'll be able to make 10 decks, and you can share your decks with other people. All I ask atm is for your feedback
I'm hoping ya'll would be able to help me tease out any issues with it. And if there's a killer feature you'd really find useful let me know.
A couple of months ago, I released Wallper. It’s a native live wallpaper app for macOS. At first it was just something I wanted for myself because I couldn’t find anything on Mac that felt right. Either the apps were ugly, or slow, or locked behind subscriptions. I thought it would stay a small side project but it grew way faster than I imagined.
Here’s where things are right now
• 8,367 active users
• 742 paying customers
• $6,761 in revenue
• 33,000 visitors and 62,000 page views on the site
I spent nothing on ads. All the growth came from Reddit, a couple of posts going semi-viral, and people sharing it around. At one point it even got picked up by 3 Telegram channels with over 2M subscribers, which brought a huge wave of new users.
Some takeaways so far
• Free plan matters more than you think. People want to try without limits before committing.
• Subscriptions are a dealbreaker for something like wallpapers. One-time payment works much better.
• Distribution beats everything. You can have the nicest product but unless you share it in the right spots, no one finds it.
This is still very early but I’m curious how far I can push it. I didn’t expect a project I made in my room to turn into thousands in revenue in such a short time.
Makes me think the ceiling is way higher than I thought.
I have 10 years of SDE experience and currently work full-time as an engineer. I’ve tried building many apps to generate side revenue, but they’ve made literally $0.
I'll go first:
Productburst: A Free product launching platform supporting startups and creators. You can launch, get feedback, backlink, early users and more visibility for your app for free. Supporting over 1000 products and creators.
Hey guys so I've made this free app where you can store your websites, social media posts and online content together in one space, rather than keeping all your bookmarks on like 10 different platforms. And I've just got the collaboration feature with live updates done, so you can now store and share everything with your friends too!
So you can use it as a shared information hub to store Tweets, youtube videos, websites, Instagram posts, tiktoks, blogs etc, to plan together for a trip or just to keep content organised together across platforms.
Again, free to use, and if interested, here's a demo on how the collaboration feature works, and here's the App Store, Play Store and web app links too if you want to check it out!
Hi everyone, I'm here to ask for your help. I recently released a very silly but equally useful app called photo2calendar, which basically uses AI to detect events in photos, screenshots, text, or PDFs and automatically add them to the device's calendar or Google Calendar. (Apple Intelligence already does this, but only on new iPhones, which many people don't have.) At first, everything seemed to be going well: 200 downloads in 3 days, with a very high conversion rate to the premium version (about 30%). Now, however, the downloads have stopped. The high conversion rate makes me think people like the app (because those who download it are also determined to pay for the extra features), but even though I made over $100 in two days with posts on Reddit, now I don't know what to do. Do you have any advice? If you want to take a look, this is the landing page: www.photo2calendar.it
If you want to improve in your sport, it is super important to actually see how you move. Your feeling is often different from how you actually move. That's why I created an app that allows you to easily analyze your movements. Some highlighted features are:
Compare two videos side by side
Scroll frame by frame to analyze fast moves
View automatic calculated joint angles, trajectories and charts
Record & share your analysis
Realtime feedback: select a joint and angle, and we let you know when you've reached that pose
A golf pro uses this app to record his analysis and send it to his students, so they can watch it and improve. A bike fitter uses the app to find the best position and show the customer the differences. And I personally use it to record and analyze my golf swing.
I recently scratched my own itch and built a Chrome extension called /clean for Slack.
If you’ve ever been stuck in Slack with years of old messages piling up, you know how painful it is to clean things up. Slack doesn’t make it easy, especially if you want to bulk delete messages.
With /clean you can:
Bulk delete messages in any channel, DM, or group chat
Filter by date range, user, or reaction type (even starred/pinned)
Respect Slack’s built-in rate limits so you don’t get blocked
Admins can clear everything, regular users can just clean their own stuff
The whole thing runs locally in your browser. No OAuth flow, no external servers, just your existing Slack session. The only external call is license verification via Gumroad.
I priced it at $30/year, figured that’s reasonable compared to the hours saved if you’ve got years of clutter.
I’m curious:
Have you run into this problem with your own Slack workspaces?
Would you pay to save the time and headache?
Happy to answer any questions and also open to feedback on the pricing, onboarding or how I should market it.
What it does: You type in any topic, and it spits out a complete video with research-backed script, voiceover, stock footage, and captions.
Why I built it: It's very difficult to create marketing videos for startups or video creators so to solve these problem I made these
The good:
1.End-to-end automation (topic in, video out)
2.Uses free stock (Images/Videos) to keep costs low
3.Works for both short-form (reels/TikTok/Shorts) and long-form content
The concerning:
1.Market feels saturated with AI videos
2.Quality depends heavily on topic complexity
Specific feedback wanted:
1.Would you actually use this vs. manual video creation?
2.What's missing that would make this a must-have?
3.Biggest concern about trusting AI for your content?
I've so many versions of this screenshot tool and honestly just didn't want to pay for it. So when GPT-5 came out it was an excuse to vibe code one up under the disguise of testing. I use the tool pretty often so thought I might as well share it.
You can check it out here. It is cross platform but I've only really tested on my mac. It also isnt polished so you may see some small quirks here and there.
Features:
Instant capture: Global hotkey (default: CommandOrControl+Shift+1) and tray menu
Selection + recapture: Area selection overlays with optional recapture of last area
Advanced editing: Rectangle, ellipse, arrow, freehand pen, and text tools
PII masking: Automatic detection plus manual masking of sensitive data
Text detection (OCR): Extract text from screenshots using Tesseract.js
Presentation mode: Background gradients/images, padding, radius, shadows, and aspect presets
Export options: Copy to clipboard or save to file (configurable filename pattern and scale)
Multi-display support: Capture from any connected display or app window
I'm a developer and a long-time Redditor, and I constantly see the same question pop up: "When is the best time to post here?"
It got me thinking: instead of guessing or searching for old threads, what if there was a tool that could automatically analyze any subreddit and give you a data-driven answer?
So, I'm building RedishOptima. The idea is simple: you type in a subreddit name, and it crunches the numbers to tell you:
The historically best day and UTC hour to post for max upvotes and comments.
A full breakdown of engagement rates for every hour of the day.
Key stats like active users and growth trends.
I'm curious: is this a tool you would actually use? I'm opening a waitlist for early access to the private beta. If this is something that interests you, signing up helps me gauge interest and gets you on the list for a free first look.
You can join the waitlist here if you're interested:
No pressure at all. I'm just trying to see if I'm solving a real problem or not. I'd also love to hear your thoughts in the comments—what kind of data would be most useful for you in a tool like this?
Hi everyone, I'd like to share a small side project that our small team is building. We're doing TeleGPT - in a nutsehll it's an AI that summarizes your chats, can also translate to different languages and can schedule meetings for you.
I know, I know, what about privacy and security??? OF COURSE we don't take any of your data. Nothing is collected nor stored, it works with your Telegram seamlessly and only on the device that you have. We believe in a world where communication is also decentralized and we're building products to support that. Hehe
We're growing and doing alpha testing phase. Join us if you want to see us grow too! telegpt.org and follow us on https://x.com/TeleGPT_ . We're with the team of Sending Labs btw, hehe thank you guys!
>>Also let us know if there are features you'd like us to include!
I’ve been juggling work, family, and side projects, and the hardest part for me was staying consistent with posting updates.
So I built Social Fox, a tool that pulls your GitHub commits and turns them into ready-to-post updates for Twitter & LinkedIn. You can review, tweak, and schedule posts — so you don’t have to sit there writing every day.
Today’s launch day 🚀 Social fox
Would love your feedback!
I've been building tools for the past few months(currently working on my SaaS Agorasafe), and I keep running into the same frustrating workflow problem that's driving me crazy.
Every time I find a goldmine Reddit thread or Twitter discussion about my niche, I end up with 20 browser tabs open, copying and pasting comments into a Google doc like it's 2005. Yesterday, I spent 45 minutes manually copying feedback from a 200-comment thread about no-code tools. There had to be a better way.
So I started sketching out this idea:
The Problem I'm Trying to Solve:
- You find an amazing discussion thread with tons of insights
- You want to save it for later reference/analysis
- Current options: bookmark it (and never look at it again), screenshot it (loses context), or manually copy-paste everything (time sink)
What I'm Thinking of Building:
A Chrome extension that:
One-click captures entire threads (post + all comments, even lazy-loaded ones)
Auto-saves to your Notion workspace in a structured database
AI analyzes the thread for sentiment, key insights, and even drafts replies in your tone
Works on Reddit, Twitter/X, LinkedIn (starting with Reddit)
The Technical Approach:
- Content script that auto-scrolls to load all comments
- Direct Notion OAuth integration (your data, your workspace)
- AI chat sidebar that understands the page context
- Respects rate limits and ToS (not trying to get banned here)
My Specific Questions:
Do you actually face this problem, or is it just me being obsessive about saving everything?
What would make this worth $10-20/month to you? Or is this a "nice to have" that you'd never pay for?
For those who use Notion: Would you trust a browser extension to write to your workspace? What security concerns would you have?
What's your current workflow for saving valuable discussions? Maybe there's already a perfect solution I'm missing?
If you're a content creator or community manager - would AI-generated reply drafts actually save you time, or would you always write from scratch anyway?
What I'm NOT Building:
- Not trying to replace native platform features
- Not building another "read later" app
- Not scraping private data or anything sketchy
I've learned the hard way that building in a vacuum leads to products nobody wants. So before I spend the next 3 months on this, I'd really appreciate your honest feedback - even if it's "this is a terrible idea because..."
If you think this could be useful, what feature would be the absolute deal-breaker if it was missing?
If there's enough interest, I'll set up a simple waitlist. But first, I need to know if this is even worth building.
Thanks for reading this far. Happy to answer any questions or hear about similar tools you've tried.
I’m building goMUV.app — a ride-sharing app where riders can shop from an in-car smart mini-store while they ride. Launch city: Miami. I’m solo-building in public and trying to make the landing page/waitlist irresistible.
Need feeback in order to launch soon to ads and therefore create a strong community, to prove market fit and therefore launch the app!! :)
