What is the most unconventional way you've seen someone using your product?

Love this question. It's really fascinating seeing the creative spins folks have put on Taskade AI. For instance, the workflow creation feature is being used by individuals and teams to instantly morph vague ideas into well-structured workflows. It’s turning a blank canvas into a structured playground, especially beneficial during the brainstorming phase. Then there's the brainstorm buddy aspect. Commands like /brainstorm or /subtask are helping users dissect complex thoughts into actionable steps. It’s been a hit among creative teams, organizing a whirlwind of ideas into coherent tasks. The /research command has been a boon for users delving into academic or market research, acting like a research assistant providing curated information on a given topic, making the initial research less tedious and more relevant. On the project front, AI personas are adding interactive advice, acting as a virtual advisor offering context-aware insights, making project discussions more engaging and insightful. Lastly, the doc dialogue feature is changing how teams interact with documents. Users are uploading files, asking questions, and uncovering insights within their project space, making document analysis more engaging. Every quirky use case is steering Taskade AI into uncharted territories, enriching our platform. These stories from our users are possibly the seedlings for our next set of features. Cheers to more inventive journeys with Taskade!

We launched ScalarOS.com to show the meeting cost in Google Calendar, aiming to reduce internal meetings. However, users wanted the meeting cost to better calculate CAC and Gross margin.

Not sure if this counte but…Someone didn’t like coming across people who couldn’t speak English very well and missed words. So instead of shutting them off and ignoring them he was kind enough to redirect them to our product. Which was a win-win-win for him so people understood, for them so they got better, for us because we got more users and clients. 😬 (for context the page was https://superwordly.com)

Part of the team building a price chart + swap webapp for traders (coinhall.org) but found finance folks on our site to find historical price data for onchain trades to do their bookkeeping

One unconventional way we've seen someone using our rental marketplace, Booomerang.io, was when a group of friends rented a set of camping gear, including tents, sleeping bags, and cooking equipment, not for a typical camping trip, but for a backyard sleepover party. They turned their backyard into a camping experience with a bonfire and everything. It was a creative and unique way to enjoy the outdoors without leaving their home.

That's a nice thread, I'll follow this one 👀 Our product is not live yet but I feel that the PH community will give us some good surprises 😆

my app is about helping new startups getting managing their new startups and getting new investments and so on. there is a section I designed to be "global visions".. it is supposed to help people reach other users across a whole country (their country). the surprise that some users used this type of posts to promote their products (products are managed inside their virtual project management system) while global visions were managed through their own profile.. this was odd to me .. for them it was an added value but for me was a way to lose some extra ads revenues.

One of our beta testers surprised us by using our calendar product in a highly unconventional way. Instead of using it solely for personal or business social media scheduling, she utilized it to schedule calls with their community. While our calendar was not originally designed for this purpose, this creative usage sparked our curiosity and made us think about how we could enhance the user experience to accommodate community-based scheduling more effectively. It was an eye-opening experience that prompted us to consider expanding the capabilities of our product to better serve the needs of diverse user groups.

Once I was working on astrology app, and after interview with some customers discovered that main purpose of usingan app for some costumers was checking astrological compatibility with…employers. No one expect this :) later we used this insight in marketing campaigns and it performed well

ah, love this question. tools are just starting points, right? it's the users who make them magic. like, we designed NotesNudge to be this self-conversation tool, but one user blew our minds. they sync it up with their partner's notes and every day, they get these little love letters from the past. kinda redefines relationship goals, doesn't it? so yeah, it's got us thinking. why not add a 'shared nudges' feature? let people tag notes to nudge someone else. why just be your own time-traveling penpal when you can also sprinkle a little serendipity into someone else's day? it's wild, man. you make a tool and then people go and use it in ways you never dreamed of. and that's the loop, that's what keeps us building. 🚀

This company is not honest. It's all deceitful and fake. I noticed many figures on my account weren't adding up, so a little investigation revealed they were helping themselves to my investment. I found this disturbing and wanted out, but they made it difficult. However, Mrs. Olivia and her company did a tremendous job and helped get my money out successfully; you can visit Olivia's company email oliviatrader44@"gmail ,com or WhatsApp her directly at +1 (931) 219-9184 for a quick conversation.

Not necessarily the most unconventional way, but still extremely surprising. Worked in marketing for a free browser based online gaming site, the growth was quick but analyzing the userbase surprised us all. We thought initially people just played the online games whenever, like mostly from home with friends or such just to burn a little time. What turned out was that about 90% of the users are playing the games exclusively at schools to procrastinate.. For context, the site is https://www.hahagames.com

For example, originally invented as a bookmark, Post-it Notes found a unique use at a church. Attendees used them to signal if they needed prayers by placing a Post-it in a specific spot on the pew.

yes we launched a website https://tattoovillas.com/ one of greatest tattoo artist was using my website for getting his questions clear.
