Threddr : Find real users on Reddit who need your product (Would love your input!)

Hey Huzzlers,

I'm building Threddr - a tool to make it easy to find Reddit posts where people are already asking for the kind of product you're building.

Right now, it’s way harder than it should be to connect with real users who actually want what you're making.

I'm solving that by helping you discover the right posts fast - no guessing, no wasting time.

The core idea is live, and I'm refining the final flow — would love your thoughts:

  • What would make a tool like this a daily habit for you?
  • Anything you'd hate if it showed up in the results?
  • Anything you think must be there?

Waitlist is open if you’re curious: https://threddr.com 🚀

Open to all thoughts — brutal or brilliant. 🙏

Introducing Groop - The easiest way to plan holidays & meetings with friend groups

Let me introduce you to Groop, a product I've built out of pure frustration. Every time I wanted to meet with friends or plan a holiday it was a hassle of constant back-and-forth messaging to check who was available when.

That's why I created Groop, a simple and free solution. It works like this

  • Go to groop.cc
  • Create a Groop (Eg. summer holiday 2025)
  • Send the link to friends
  • Everyone can select available dates on a calendar
  • The dates when everyone is available are highlighted in green

It doesn't get more simpler than this. No account creation required. No more back-and-forth-messaging.

Check it out: groop.cc

Marketplace/cold-start problem

I've recently launched Walker, (https://callwalker.net) a connection assistant for students @ business schools. Currently invite/referral-only to ensure the quality of connections. The bill would also be pretty high if it wasn't.

I've been reaching out to college students at business schools in my network to see if they'd be interested in trying it out. ~20% respond, even less actually use it.

My problem - how do you get people to join a networking app with no network on it?

It seems to be a pretty common problem among marketplace-like startups. ~A year ago, I launched a parking marketplace app that did pretty poorly. I'd say the main issue was trying to find renters on an app with no users & vice versa. Could never convince either party to use the app.

I think Walker is a pretty cool product. The feedback from initial users is the best of anything I've launched so far. After a decent-sized network of high-quality contacts, I'm sure growth will be much more sustainable. Just not sure how to get early students interested in joining.

Any thoughts or experience with this? Could social media be the move?

things that cost nothing:

- attending calls on time  

- smiling when you greet them  

- saying their name  

- treating them as important  

- following up  

- researching them ahead of time  

- responding quickly  

- listening more than you talk  

but make a world of difference.

Directories are Knowledge Graphs

This past weekend I studied a successful builder of directories named Frey Chu. He doesn't shill for get rich schemes.

He went over a few directories that are quite lucrative -- see the attached images.

Ultimately, what they all have in common is a rich content graph also known as a knowledge graph.

Here's a video, where I explain the terminology and methodology you need to get started.

In summary it's this.

  1. You need to build a website that people want to visit and stay in.
  2. Use a tool such as ChatGPT to brainstorm.
  3. Make the damn directory; here's a tutorial, where I show you how I made one with Lovable.

I got into more detail here.

I'll Design Your MVP in Figma. You Pay Whatever You Think It's Worth – Don't Like It? Don't Pay.

Hi everyone!

I'm offering a "pay-what-you-want" Figma design service to help founders bring their ideas to life.

Whether you want to visualise your idea to help with MVP planning, presenting to investors or validating the idea with potential users - I can create polished, professional mockups for you in Figma. You can then use these in landing pages, slide decks or posts to help convey your vision.

✅ Perfect for early MVPs, startup concepts, side projects, or even just landing pages.

✅ No upfront cost. You only pay if you're happy with the final design - and you decide how much.

✅ Already have a MVP? I can help improve the design of it.

Why "Pay-What-You-Want?"

I'm just starting out offering my Figma design services professionally, and looking for projects to help build up my portfolio. If you're interested in the kinds of designs I could make, check out a project I'm working on at the moment here that I did the design for: kanbankanban.com

If you're interested, please DM me with:

  •    A description of your idea/project
  •    What you would like designed (landing page, app screens, etc.)

Happy to jump on a quick call too if you prefer!

Depending on interest, I'll only be able to take on only a few projects right now - so the earlier you reach out, the faster I'll review and get started.

Thanks for reading!

(@admin - not sure if this is right place to post this, so please feel free to remove if against content policy!)

Do You Want To Get Into YC or Land Your First Paying Customers? I Want To Help You For Free (in Exchange for Feedback)

Hey fellow Huzzlers,

Hope you had a great weekend!

Last week, I had the chance to speak with several early-stage AI entrepreneurs. And two big Pains kept coming up for them:

  1. Getting first paying customers (fast)
  2. Getting accepted into a top-tier accelerator (YC apps are closing soon!)

After reflecting on the conversations, I realised both challenges share one core need:

A solid Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy.

Now, a bit about me:

In my “day job,” I create GTM strategies for VC/PE-backed companies (>$20M ARR). I typically charge $10K+ per plan, tailored to each client’s market, customer data, and goals.

Over the last 3 years, I've done this for nearly 100 companies, seeing firsthand what truly drives revenue growth.

This got me thinking:

Could I leverage AI to make top-level GTM strategies available to early-stage founders for $100?

I spent the weekend fine-tuning an agent that creates robust, founder-ready GTM plans specifically for AI-native startups.

Now, I need your brutally honest feedback.

Here's what the current iteration of the report includes:

  • 1. Executive Summary: Key GTM recommendations, previewed at a glance
  • 2. Startup Summary: Pain you're solving, your stakeholders, and your core value prop
  • 3. Go-To-Market Foundations
  • - Strategic insights tailored to the market you are tackling, things to keep in mind (e.g, how to create a moat, how to make sure you are after a $1B idea, etc...)
  • - Who your Ideal Customer should be and why
  • - Ideas of the most effective features you should build in your MVP and Why
  • - Recommendations of different packages and their price, and reasons why they would be effective
  • - Step by step process on how to get your first customers. Including how to get to talk to your first 10-20 stakeholders to get feedback on your idea. It includes email templates, LinkedIn message templates, Outbound sequence templates, how to do research on the stakeholders, AND how to navigate the conversation with them (including examples of questions to ask to validate your idea, as well as how to ask for referrals to keep the conversation going)
  • 4. Accelerator Application
  • - Nuances to keep in mind when applying and/or for interviews
  • - How to leverage this GTM plan to come across as an expert in your field and in growing startup revenue
  • 5. Parting Words: A dose of encouragement (because this journey is f*cking hard!)

Right now, I’m offering this report in exchange for detailed feedback.

If you’re interested, please comment below with:

* What would make you pay $10K (let's imagine you have the budget) to a consultant/business coach/course?

* Your startup’s URL (it’s ok if you don’t have one, simply provide details about your startup idea)

* Any additional information you want the agent to know (you can be as detailed as you like

* Where I can send the PDF (email, LinkedIn profile, Reddit handle, or somewhere else is convenient)

Thanks for reading this far 🙏

I hope I can help you sharpen your GTM plan, get those precious first customers, and maybe even get you accepted at YC!

how you can scale saas support like me, on a tight budget:

1. build a killer knowledge base

- write 5-10 faqs covering common issues, like “how to reset your account.” my faq page cuts most support emails.

- use a free tool like notion to host a public help center, simple and searchable.

- update it monthly based on new user questions you see in emails or x dms.

- link to it in every support reply to nudge users to self-serve.

2. use ai for assessment, not answers

- set up a basic ai chatbot to categorize tickets (e.g., “billing” or “bug”). i've used a free zapier flow for this.

- but always follow up with a human reply, users hate ai-only responses.

- train the ai on your faqs to suggest relevant help articles before escalating.

- keep tweaking the bot’s logic to avoid frustrating users with bad suggestions.

3. leverage your community

- start a discord or forum where users can help each other. my 50-user discord resolves 20% of questions.

- pin a “support” channel with links to your faq and email for quick access.

- thank active community members with free months or swag, it builds loyalty.

- monitor threads to jump in when needed, but let users shine.

4. prioritize high-impact replies

- focus on new users first, they’re most likely to churn. i reply to trial users in under 2 hours.

- use canned responses for common questions, but personalize the opener (like “hey sarah”).

- track support trends with a free tool like google sheets to spot recurring issues.

- fix bugs fast and email affected users, they’ll stick around if you’re doing good.

good luck with your efforts to scale.

-

i've been helping founders rank higher in ai search results over the past few weeks.

helping them create a free, organic, and consistent traffic channel that drives business growth.

couple months from now, nothing will drive more sales than having ai recommend your products and services.

analyze your site's ai seo score at https://lm-seo.com and get a step-by-step action plan tailored to your site.

I just launched my first SaaS and would really appreciate your feedback...

I just launched my first SaaS and would really appreciate your feedback.

A bit of context:

Over the past two months, I’ve been working on a project inspired by my own needs as a Reddit user. My goal was to bring together various existing tools into a more accessible and practical solution.

Features available:

  • Schedule and post at the optimal times
  • Track and analyze peak activity from active users across subreddits
  • Manage your scheduled posts with a daily, weekly, or monthly calendar (you can disable or update them)
  • Add (and group them with tags) users to uncover pains, desires, headlines, alternatives they seek, and their most engaged subreddits.

Here are some features I have in mind:

  • Automatic posts every X days
  • Launch an app for iOS/Android
  • Post in multiple subreddits at the same time
  • Bag of Words for subreddits (similar to trends, but more specific, as it would show relevant words for each specific subreddit)

landpage: https://postdit.com

app: https://app.postdit.com

I’d really appreciate any feedback! 🙌

What is the problem that most irritates and consumes your time on a daily basis?

Curiosity for those who are building projects (or trying to build):

What is the most annoying or repetitive problem you face in your daily life as a builder?

(It may be something small, but it bothers you every day.)

Currently what gives me the most work is marketing.

I'm trying to better understand the behind-the-scenes of the builder's journey.

If you can share, I’d love to hear!

How I built 3 apps in 2 months (still not profitable and it's ok)

I’ll start by apologizing for the title — I swear it wasn’t supposed to be one of those "you won't believe what happened when I drank vinegar and cinnamon" type of headlines (does anyone else get bombarded by those insane ads?). 😅

Two months ago, I didn’t even know what GitHub was. Today, I’ve shipped 3 real apps:

  1. 🤑 WillTheyConvert
  2. 💣 BoomHabits
  3. 🌴 DubaiDiscoverer

They’re not perfect. They’re not profitable. But they prove ONE IMPORTANT THING: Anyone can start building.

Back then, I had zero technical skills. GitHub, npm install, APIs — all sounded like magic to me. I didn’t buy courses or join bootcamps. Instead, I watched free YouTube videos.

My first project was BoomHabits.com — just another habit tracker. But not because the world needed one more habit tracker. Not to make money. But to LEARN. To finish something real. To prove to myself: "I can." And 3 days after launch? BoomHabits had 200+ users and even got a lot of love on Fazier (#3 Product of the Week)! For someone who didn’t even know what GitHub was weeks earlier, it felt unreal. 🔥

Next, I built WillTheyConvert.com — a tool to test startup ideas before wasting time and money. Fake landing pages. Fake pricing pages. Real data on what people actually want. It was smart, simple, and useful. And in just 3 days after launch, I had 70 registered users and 20 active flows.

Finally, I returned to a project I started a long time ago but abandoned: DubaiDiscoverer. It’s a full travel guide for Dubai, built completely by myself. Recently, I gave it a full redesign, and now I’m focusing on SEO.

But here’s the thing: The point of this post isn’t to show off. It’s to remind you of one simple fact:

If someone like me — literally starting from ZERO — can build and launch 3 real apps in just 2 months... You can too.

  • You just have to START. 🏁
  • Don’t wait to be "ready."
  • Don’t wait until you "know everything."
  • Start messy. Start clueless. Start afraid.

And hey — did I waste some money along the way?

Absolutely.

I had to pay for tools like Cursor or Lovable.

Was it a "bad investment"? You could say that.

But it wasn’t a waste — because thanks to that, I gained practical skills, real knowledge, and even real connections.

Today, I chat daily with several awesome people on X — exchanging ideas, helping each other grow. 🚀

I don’t regret a thing.

If I did it, you can do it too.

Same Color, Different Meanings

Making a playlist on the usage of color as an integral component in design.

Just to drill in the importance consider this.

UPS and the Brown Branding Backfire

UPS chose brown in 1916 to convey reliability and hide dirt—earning the nickname "Big Brown" in the U.S.

But abroad, the color clashed with local contexts: in Spain, brown trucks evoked hearses; in Germany, brown uniforms recalled Nazi "Brownshirts."

A reminder that even color can carry unexpected meaning across cultures.

Here's the video where I dive deeper.

Also, here's a more detailed blog post.

Frank – a terminal bot that writes your commits

Frank – a CLI that generates commit messages and mocks your code with surgical sarcasm

I'm a developer, and if there's one thing that makes me procrastinate and that I hate, it's writing commit messages. Especially when the code is a mess and I can't even explain what happened.

With that in mind, I'm creating Frank, a command-line bot that:

  • Generates plausible commit messages (based on changes in your code)
  • And also comments on your code with sharp humor, like "I'm tired of your mess".

The target audience is devs (mainly backends and fullstacks) who:

  • Live in the terminal
  • Are too lazy to write decent commits
  • Hate “cute” assistants who treat everything like a productivity spa
  • Like sarcasm and are self-critical enough to laugh at their own code

The goal isn't to automate everything or pretend that committing is fun.

It's just to lighten the boring task with a dose of sarcasm and make your Git history less embarrassing.

I'm validating the idea and would love to hear what you think:

  • Would this be useful in your day-to-day life?
  • What kind of dev do you think would use this all the time?
  • Do you have any suggestions for sarcastic comments for Frank?
Have you ever had a headache with a poorly done commit that you don't even understand later? Like: fix: things
> …but no one knows what things are — not even you.

How to get on the front page of Product Hunt without being featured 🤯 Here’s how I did it (twice):
  1. Go to the Forum section on PH. It's a newly relaunched feature and a great way to connect with the PH community. Now head to the "Introduce Yourself" topic and introduce yourself to the community.
  2. Next, explore the General topic. Scroll through posts that are trending to get a feel for what kind of content works well. You can start participating in posts to connect with community members, you can use recent comment page to access the active conversation.
  3. Now write a post that’s actually helpful to the PH community. Every post needs a topic. Pick the one that fits best so others can find and join in. If you're unsure, use General. Example: I shared a post on how to format text in PH Forum posts (bold, links, lists, etc.) in the initial days of the forum launch.
  4. After posting, your submission goes into review. It may take some time to be approved. If it’s self-promotional or not useful to the community, it’ll get rejected.Don’t be discouraged if a few posts get deleted. That’s part of the game. So before posting, just go through the forum guidelines once. You can access that here: https://help.producthunt.com/en/articles/10478791-product-hunt-forum-guidelines
  5. Once your post is approved, you’ll get an email + a PH notification. That’s your cue to start engaging with people commenting your post, just like you do for your product launch.
  6. If your post gets early traction (like 10+ upvotes or comments), it may hit the trending section of the Forum. That’s HUGE because trending posts appear on the PH homepage. Having followers helps (they’ll get notified about your post), but it’s not necessary. I had just 100+ followers and still got 2 posts featured on the homepage. Your post will stay there until another trending post performs better or a good new post comes in.

Bonus Tip 1: PH is quietly testing a Founder Stories section. So if your product lands in the Top 5 of the day, you might get your journey featured in the Maker's Corner. More details here: https://producthunt.com/p/general/voted-top-5-product-of-the-day-win-a-chance-to-be-featured-in-our-new-maker-s-corner

Bonus Tip 2: If you have recently added new feature or update that you want to share with the PH community. You can start a thread for your product in the forum as well.

"milestones roadmap" for tech founders to navigate their journey from 0 to 10M in ARR

I am working on a "milestones roadmap" for tech founders to navigate their journey from 0 to 10M in ARR.

The roadmap is based on my ~15 years of experience as a founder, an operator, an angel investor, and as a consultant.

It will have ~7 or 8 major milestones and then smaller achievements in between that need to be covered (almost chronologically) to increase your chances to get to 10M in ARR.

A few examples of major milestones are:

* Nailing your ICP definition -> Based on market feedback

* Aligning your product (MVP) with your market (ICP) to head towards PMF

* Mastering the founder-led growth stage by honing your sales skills

Each of those milestones have different specific tasks that you need to accomplish in order to progress to the next.

What do you think of this?

Creating a marketing search engine

Hey everyone. I just wanted to share a new project I'm working on which will accelerate the adoption of Huzzler. I'd love to hear your feedback.

It's a tool that scrapes a set of subreddits and saves all the posts and comments to a database. Then as a user, you'll be able to use AI search which understands meaning and intent to lookup any reddit leads of the past week / month and finds hundreds of results in seconds.

An example: You are making an app that helps people stop smoking.

Using my tool: you can search the entire database with a query like: "Give me all posts/comments where someone is complaining about not being able to quit smoking".

It'll use AI to efficiently search a database of thousands of posts / comments and comments with the same meaning as your query.

Where existing tools lack

All existing tools I've found use keywords to find matches. For example, if I use the keyword "smoking" , those tools will only analyze every post that has the exact keyword "smoking". But it will miss potential posts where someone doesn't explicitly mentions a tracked keyword.

Let take for example a comment: "I can't quit the darts, I've tried for years" which was placed under a meme in r/memes. Classic tools like replyguy will not notify you for that lead. My tool will find those, as the comment is in the database and it can understand the meaning behind words. It understands that "darts" are slang for cigarettes. And when using the search engine it'll find any post or comment that matches with that meaning.

You can also create multiple queries like: "give me everyone who mentions to have smoked for years", "give me all posts about smoking",.. you can literally search up anything, it's not limited to keyword tracking.

You can also save queries to be notified daily if new leads have been found.

What do you think of this idea? Any feedback is welcome

Web2 to Web3: Why Entrepreneurs Should Consider Ethereum?

Listen, I hear you. As someone whose been an active participant in the blockchain world for the last decade, I know that Web3 is be associated with scams, tokens and 15 year olds making thousands of dollars overnight.

Thats not all that web3 is. Tokens, NFTs and lambos.

Under the noise, what it really is is: a new value creation model.

As a traditional entrepreneur online you get typical four revenue models:

  1. Subscriptions (SaaS)
  2. Advertising
  3. One off buys (content)
  4. Consulting (selling hours)

Web3 provides a few more and some of them might be a bit out there, but hear me out.

In Web3 we have:

  • Asset Ownership: digital ownership through NFTs and tokens, creating new revenue streams beyond advertising and subscriptions.
  • Fractional Ownership: own a part of something big
  • Tokenization: Convert user participation, content creation, and platform value into tradable digital assets.
  • Community Ownership: Allow users to become stakeholders through governance tokens

On top of that, there are millions of users around the world who have funds available to spend, with a click using their un-custodial wallets.

Competitive Advantages

  • First Mover Benefit: Makes dApps a place to leave your entrepreneurial mark because players aren't established as well as in other industries.
  • Money is Already there, locked and loaded: With a rapid innovation spree you get access to millions of dollars of potential revenue in an area where dominant players are still getting established and users are lurking around so to say.
  • Enhanced Trust: Transparency and immutability of blockchain reduces need for trust in platform operators. People operate million dollar businesses, or d-exchanges or Real World Assets (RWA) on chain without ever knowing the people they interact with.
  • Composability: Build on existing protocols and infrastructure rather than starting from scratch. Here my biases are towards Ethereum, its practically programmable money that can be taken either direction. So many tools and examples out there - you can deploy pretty quick.

Planning Your Move

Practically I'd say the best way is to work with Hybrid Models. Integrating your Web2 solutions into Web3, or vice versa.

i can go deeper into theoretical explanations, but as a fellow enterpreneur - ain't nobody got time for that.

So instead, I'll bring out a few examples that I think are important to illustrate how it all works:

  • A client of mine FX1, they gather, deliver and sell sports data and AI Analytics on that data. They launched a token, and made their token holders stake holders where they verify the data and make sure that there are no mistakes. At the same time, they get the upside into the platforms success.
  • Another Model I like is Libraro - they merged the world of book publishing together with the digital ownership of blockchain, making it fraction-able and enabling many writers to get access and rewards from their work.
  • tBlocks on the other hand found a good way to tokenize the real estate of Albanian coast to global investors, giving somebody lets say, in Shanghai, an opportunity to own a stake in a beachfront property development, in Albania (spoiler alert: I liked the idea so much I angel invested).
  • Another startup tokenizing a fleet of rental cars in Dubai - you own a piece of the fleet, and get your paycheck of returns every month.

Now probably these use cases all raise the idea of how does this work? Well the way it works is through the power of smart contracts. Once a smart contract is programmed, audited and deployed - that means that nobody can change the logic of it. Unlike a normal application where we can push code continuously - the contract is set in stone.

That means that if I audit the content of a particular contract, and I just need a wallet to interact with it, then I trust the logic of that contract and therefore I can interact with it with a security that I wouldn't with other entities.

Thats how exchanges like Uniswap or 1inch manage millions in liquidity daily. Code is omnipotent, and our tokens are its subject.

Given those powers you can see how many avenues of entrepreneurship are available within the sphere.

What do you think? Would you be interested to dabble in Web3? Any cool ideas or applications that come to mind?

The next visionary Web3 founders will have to think first principles.

I plan to go deeper into the technical side if this resonates with a few people, on a new couple of posts. Let me know your thoughts.

I went from ZERO experience to my second serious app in about 3 months

Hey! I’ve got a story that might just change the way you approach building your next big idea, and trust me, you don’t want to miss this one. But before I dive into the details, let me rewind and take you back to my first project: BoomHabits.

About month ago, when I first started working on BoomHabits, I had zero experience with coding. Like, absolutely none. But within 24 hours, I managed to build a simple yet powerful habit tracker to help people stay productive and crush their goals. 😅 No fancy code, no convoluted processes—just a lot of trial and error, learning as I went, and utilizing NoCode tools that empowered me to turn my ideas into something real, without needing a tech background.

Fast forward to today, and I’m back at it again with my second project: WillTheyConvert.com. This one’s even smarter, designed to help you bring your ideas to life faster, without the risk of wasting time or resources.

Here’s the deal: WillTheyConvert is an app that lets you validate your product concepts instantly. It simulates payments and account sign-ups—meaning you don’t have to build your entire product first. You can test your assumptions within minutes and get real data that can save you tons of time and money.

This method is known as Fake Door Testing, and it’s been used by some of the most successful companies out there like AirbnbDropboxGroupon, and even Product Hunt. These companies tested their ideas this way before diving into full product builds, and it worked for them. If it worked for the pros, I’m pretty sure it can work for all of us too. 😎

I really hope this post not only inspires you to give my app a try, but also motivates you to experiment with AI tools. They’re seriously awesome, and if I can do it, I’m confident you can too!
