Ideas for PH-like small SaaS
Hey Sometimes I can come up with an idea that perfectly fits the Producthunt vibe. Usually, it is a SaaS but really small, so it can be someone's pet project. If you have the same ideas, let's share them here! It might help the new members to start with something small but cool & useful! My attempt: Simple & Sexy monitoring of your product key metrics. (inspired by YC Startup School dashboard). 1. You code secret endpoint that returns the key metrics (DAU, Retention, $$$) 2. SaaS calls this endpoint each day and saves result 3. You receive a sexy & simple dashboard for all your pet projects. It can be viewed on a large TV or in iOS app widget. Let's start our day with growing metrics motivation!
We are looking for founders/creators who would like to share their story + info about their startup
Hey there, Hunters! Hope you are having a great Monday so far My team and I are preparing a series of interviews with startups members (preferably founders or creators, but it's not 100% necessary). Our main idea is not only to inspire other to-be-entrepreneurs but also to connect different startups that might find some solutions on other startups :) Let me know if you're interested so I can put you on the list and arrange a short meeting to know each other! Ways of getting in touch with me : -My email: martina.hackbartt@reskript.com -My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mart... If you have any questions you can of course let me know! And I would really appreciate it if you could tell me (on this discussion) what your startup is about in one sentence :) Talk to you soon, Martina
AMA: 🧨 Live rollercoaster that's Launch Day
Dear product hunters & makers. It's been about 12 hours since we went live on PH - and I can see the spectrum of emotions and energies we've already been through. And there's 12 more to go. Whatever the up or down, this is the song that's been playing in my head since the word go - https://open.spotify.com/track/2... Starting this as my chronicle for the second half-marathon. Founders, Makers here - would love your stories too.
