TrendPulse

Getting a consistent new signup each day or two after a month of hard work, feels good to see stats! 40 users, mostly from word of mouth. Marketing is hard 😅

From what I've seen, there are generally three main ways people recommend using Reddit. Just post stuff. Launch posts. What-I'm-building posts. Here's-my-story posts. Revenue success posts. The catch is, the revenue success posts are pretty much the only type that people engage with. And if you even dare try making any sort of post outside of r/saas or r/indiehackers or r/buildinpublic or r/thisisaplacejustforotherpeoplebuildingstuff, you may just get banned. Find posts of pe...

I could have the best tool in the world and nobody would ever see it. The noise it just too loud. But in reality my tool is probably not the best tool in the world... So now what?

Built this as a tool for myself and I've been really happy with it, so I turned it into a cheap MCP server ($10/mo) in case anyone else wants it. Log in with Google OAuth, paste one config block into Claude, and ask things like: "Which queries am I ranking 8–15 for?" or "Why did traffic drop this week?" It works against your real Google Analytics and Search Console data. It can also make changes. It'll tell you how much traffic ChatGPT and Perplexity are actually sendin...

Seriously, what are you all up to? Are we scraping the mainframe yet, or are those silver bricks just doubling as space heaters for your studio apartment now?

Hello everybody I’m a 17 year old lad, I’ve been building a SaaS tool for the last month and would love to get on call with somebody who has more experience and knowledge than me and get honest feedback on what to improve. Please reply under this post and I’d love to get a meeting set up. My SaaS tool helps businesses with outbound outreach. I have nothing to sell you , I just want honest feedback from a more experienced person. ...

Let me get started: - Any sort of dark purple UI - No animations - AI-images on website

I am honestly in shock. I built a writing app for fantasy authors and my only marketing funnel has been through short form video on tiktok, instagram, and youtube shorts!

It’s a lonely game building in the health space, so I’d be happy to connect with people who are experiencing the same as I am.

I got tired of realizing that if a Skool membership expires or a community disappears, you lose access to everything you paid for. So I spent a few days building a Chrome extension that downloads an entire course you're enrolled in: videos, notes, and attachments, all saved locally in the right order. I honestly built it for myself. Then I posted it this week, and about 12 hours later someone I'd never met bought a lifetime licence. It's only one sale, but having a complete stranger pay ...

Hey r/SaaS , Over the past few months, I’ve been solo-developing a project around SaaS retention. I noticed that most subscription cancellation processes are either static "Are you sure?" popups or frustrating manual survey forms. I built a 3-step dynamic flow (identifying the exact reason → offering real-time incentives like discounts/pauses → tracking recovered MRR analytics). Question for other founders here: How do you currently handle churn prevention when a user clicks ...

I keep building instead of selling or distribution. I tried to be active across newsletter and social media but the energy and charm fades away in a week. Many times I am lost what kind of communities worth engaging or what's worth replying to. Founders, how you transitioned to selling/distribution ? A schedule you forced yourself into, one channel you picked and stuck with? Not looking for a hack list, just what worked for you. [link] &#...

Hello everyone, i want to build a SaaS before graduation and i want it to be in my native language. My goal is not something too complex and complicated. My true goal is building something that could actually be used daily, maybe by students or whoever else that focuses on studying. And maybe something entirely different. What i want to say is that i want ideas close to them or a simple direction that could help me find answers to solutions as everyone else. But in my native language. &#...

Interesting how much of this is AI infrastructure and workflow tooling now. Not just the obvious chatbot names. Seems like software budgets are shifting from adding AI to the product to paying for the stack that lets teams use it at scale

I hope this post doesn't get deleted (or worse my account getting banned from the sub) by mentioning the forbidden topic: Advertising. But honestly it's really tough, I think it is probably the hardest part about creating a product as a solo developer. You usually don't have much of a budget to work with, and you post random stuff online hoping the algorithm of whatever website you posted in bugs out and someone sees your thing. And if you somehow didn't figure this out yet, that is me in th...

I originally thought that adding another feature would make the product more valuable. What actually happened was that it became harder to explain, gave new users one more thing to learn and pulled attention away from the core problem we were trying to solve. Removing that feature made our onboarding conversations much smoother. It completely changed how I think about prioritization. These days, I spend more time asking whether a feature makes the product simpler before asking whether it is wo...

I'm working on a project I'd like to eventually turn into my main income, maybe even replace my job someday if it goes well. Right now I'm stuck going back and forth on licensing and could use some outside perspective. Here's what I want for regular users. Free to download, run locally, use for their own hobby projects. Totally fine if they sell stuff they make with it. I want a plugin system so people can extend it and build on top of what I made. Basically I want it to feel as open and frien...

I launched my SaaS SeoLoupe around 5 weeks ago, so far I am at 1030 users and 12 of them are paying (don't get me wrong, I am still super happy). My SaaS is a tool that allows you to find and fix SEO issues holding your website back. Essentially the main purpose is to help your website rank higher on Google search and LLMs. So far the hardest part is converting users into paying, rather then getting users. I would genuinely appreciate some feedback, and what can be improved. Since I thin...

How do saas founders are marketing their product ? all i can see is people making X account and posting tweets and sharing value and that's it

Please from YOUR experience. If you do you found that a certain app or SaaD helped you share what the app does not just what the app is called

i know how this sounds. hear me out. i run outbound for clients. one of them was stuck at $3K MRR doing linkedin only. same playbook everyone runs, connection requests, personalized messages, follow-ups, tracking replies. hours every day. i tested instagram DMs as an experiment. described their ICP, used an autonomous agent to find matching accounts based on bio and content, sent personalized DMs referencing their actual posts, and followed up automatically. the results in 30 days made bot...

I'm a software engineer, and I enjoy building new things, I spent years of life jumping from a saas idea to another, even before this AI era, and I never succeeded getting one single user, until I understood the shiny object syndrome habit You know the pattern : Week 1, you're obsessed, coding at midnight, you've already bought the domain name.. Week 3, you see a tweet/reddit post about another niche, your brain goes "wait, THAT'S better, that's THE real opportunity," and all of a s...

Guys I can’t believe it I got my first paying customer today. I broke down in tears I have never been this happy in my life. To whoever in this world bought it you made my day and made me continue building my projects.

Hey i'm like thinking writing this, if people will belive this or not. But i'm writing this of rthose who're into B2B SaaS serving mid and large enterprises. So last month We got in room with one of the company who's having 600+ clients and all the company they're serving are above 20MARR And now we're partnering to manage all of them *starting with first 30 companies and slowly onboard the whole. This took as almost 2 months, served just one of their protfolio for 2 months and now fin...

When do you decide, it's time to make creatives and market this tool to get more leads and sales?

https://b4uwork.vercel.app/ I created a free public UK trust score that searches for thousands of public sources and documentation (without AI) about a business and creates a clear 0-100 score. This is designed to be a mobile app, so I don't want marketing websites in front of the application. It should be open, search, and result. The idea is minimal wait times, minimal clicks, minimal screens, simple navigation, and easy to understand information, free and unlimited. Nearly all feedback...
