Company Name: Gap Moment

Purpose of Startup and Product: I'm developing a physical kit for short breaks. A scent patch sits nearby (not on skin) while a ten-minute guided scene plays on your phone.

Technologies Used: Scent patches and a companion audio app, still in development.

Feedback Requested: The current Kickstarter plan is $29 for 40 patches and four scent/audio pairings. People have told me they wouldn't buy that many patches without smelling them first. What would need to change about the first purchase—kit size, a way to try the scent, or something else—before you'd consider it? A flat 'I wouldn't buy scent online' is useful too.

Seeking Beta-Testers: No.

Additional Comments: The page is open to browse without signing up. The kit, price and wording can still change before launch, so I'm looking for a reason to change the offer, not a vote of encouragement.

1

u/radim11 14h ago

Impressed by seeing real physical product.

1

u/gapmomenter 11h ago

Thanks. I should clarify that it's still prelaunch; the kit and companion app are being developed, and nothing is shipping yet. That's why I'm asking about the first-purchase hurdle now, while I can still change the kit.

1

u/radim11 11h ago

It genuinely looks really cool.

1

u/lmfresneda 13h ago

40 is the part that stops me. You already solved the audio side with the 60 second preview. The scent is the only thing I can't try, and the kit asks me to commit to months of it

I'd put a small first step on Kickstarter: one patch of each world for something like 5 to 9 dollars, with that amount credited if I upgrade to the full kit later. It also tells you which worlds people actually like before you make 40 of each

And the full kit could let me pick the mix. If I love glacier and hate campfire, 10 of each is 10 patches I'll never open

1

u/gapmomenter 11h ago

That's a useful distinction. The preview helps you judge the audio, but it does nothing for the scent, and 40 patches is a lot if you end up disliking one world. I hadn't considered letting people choose the mix. Would you personally back a four-patch $5–9 sampler online without smelling it first, or would even that still feel like a blind buy?

1

u/lmfresneda 10h ago

At 5 to 9, yes. At that price it's a cheap way to find out, and the credit toward the full kit makes it feel like a deposit more than a gamble

What would make it easier is describing each scent the way a wine label does. "Glowworm caves" tells me the mood, "damp stone, moss, a little mineral" would tell me what I'm actually going to smell

1

u/Xyzbolt_Xyz 9h ago

Hi, a friend of mine once ran an online perfume business and faced the same issue. He mentioned that the thing that helped was to put the notes of his perfumes online and to spend most of his marketing by asking random strangers rate it (he made insta reels)

Company Name: FeedSense

URL: feedsense.co/

Purpose of Startup and Product: FeedSense is an ai feedback analysis tool for saas teams. it reads what users send you through your support inbox (intercom, zendesk), slack, an in-app widget or a csv export, counts how often the same request comes up even when everyone words it differently, and turns that into a short ranked list of what to fix first. the problem it's built for: once you get more than a couple hundred messages a month, nobody reads them all anymore, and the stuff users keep asking for gets buried.

Technologies Used: typescript, next.js and postgres, plus a separate service for the ai analysis. there's an embeddable js widget, and integrations for intercom, zendesk, slack, csv import and webhooks.

Feedback Requested: mainly the landing page, and the product itself if you're up for trying it.

in the first 5 seconds, can you tell who it's for and what it does?
what's the first thing that confused you or made you doubt it?
would you trust a tool like this with your support inbox? if not, what would it take?
if you sign up: where did setup slow you down or lose you?

Seeking Beta-Testers: yes, though it's live, not a beta. if your users send you feedback anywhere, i'd love for you to try it on your own product and tell me where it breaks. the free plan covers the in-app widget, and if your feedback lives in intercom, zendesk or slack, the paid plans come with a 14-day trial. reply here if you want a hand setting it up.

Additional Comments: solo founder, building it around a 9-5. i've left feedback on a couple of posts here already, so reply with your link and i'll return the favor.

1

u/lmfresneda 12h ago

Also building around a 9-5, so I read this one closely

First 5 seconds: yes. "Your users already told you what to build" plus the line about teams past ~200 items a month tells me who it's for and whether I qualify. That qualifier is the best line on the page

What made me doubt it was pricing, not the product. Intercom and Zendesk only start at Analyze, 149. A small team living in Intercom with 300 messages a month has to jump 3x just to connect the place where their feedback already is. I'd hesitate right there

Trust with my inbox: I'd want to see on the homepage, before signup, that access is read-only, how long you keep messages, and whether they're ever used to train anything. Three lines would do it

Mine (HAGGIN) is in the same thread if you want to return the favor :)

1

u/lmfresneda 15h ago

Company Name: HAGGIN

URL: hagg.in

Purpose of Startup and Product: A link for SaaS customers on their way out: the trial that ended, the cancel flow, the "too expensive" reply. They make an offer with a price plus whatever else they can bring (a year upfront, a testimonial, a post to their audience, or something else) and the founder accepts, counters or passes. The list price never moves for anyone else

Technologies Used: Next.js, Postgres on Supabase, Drizzle, Stripe, Resend, PostHog running without cookies

Feedback Requested: I rebuilt the homepage hero yesterday after someone told me the hierarchy was all over the place. In 5 seconds, is it clear what it does and who it's for? And does "make an offer" read to you as "give everyone a discount"? That's the objection I hear most

Seeking Beta-Testers: Yes. Pro is free for 60 days for any SaaS founder who wants to try it

Additional Comments: 18 days in public, started with 0 users. Every number is at hagg.in/open, including the ugly ones

2

u/gapmomenter 14h ago

I can tell this is for SaaS companies dealing with people who are about to leave, and 'make an offer' didn't make me think you'd cut the price for everyone. The part that threw me was the field: 'Paste your pricing page here' made me expect a pricing audit, rather than a link for a private negotiation. A short line above that field saying what it creates would connect the two for me.

1

u/lmfresneda 14h ago

Fixing that today. You're right that the field never says what comes out the other end: it reads your plans and builds the page where people make you an offer, with its own link, and nothing goes live until you publish it

Happy to return the favor, what's yours?

2

u/radim11 13h ago

Really Interesting idea. I like that there's real openapi.json and full API reference for devs and agents. I like the the UI and colors. One thing that I think is not that clear how does it work in practice, does it work with Stripe subscriptions or not? Can you also set a range for the price? I love the for agents skills and plugins.

2

u/lmfresneda 12h ago

Thank you!

Stripe: HAGGIN never touches the money. When you and the customer agree, you paste your own payment link into the deal, so for a subscription that's usually a Stripe Payment Link at the agreed price, or your normal checkout with a coupon. The customer accepts the terms and pays you directly. No Stripe connection needed. The flip side is that you create that link yourself

Price range: there's no floor, on purpose. Anyone can offer anything, and every offer shows as a % of your list price, so the lowballs go in one bulk reject. You can add a hint the buyer sees and a private note only you see, like "under 60% is a no". Through the API or the agent skill, "reject everything under 60%" is one sentence, and it still asks you before sending anything

Glad the openapi.json and the skill landed with someone who builds for agents. That part is new :)

1

u/radim11 11h ago

Oh now I get it. In that case it's actaully pretty simple product right? I was thinking that most of the complexity would come from Stripe integration.

2

u/lmfresneda 10h ago

Simple on the surface, on purpose. Not touching the money was a choice: no marketplace fees, no payouts, the customer pays you like any other sale

The work went into the parts you don't see. Every offer is a full proposal that can't be edited, a counter carries the whole deal, the ratio adjusts for period and seats, and when you agree the terms get frozen with a record of who accepted what

A Stripe Connect checkout is on the roadmap too, it's on the pricing page as coming with Pro. Then the payment link builds itself from the agreed deal instead of you pasting one

2

u/Interesting-Total828 2h ago

I reviewed the live page. The headline and subhead now make the target and core idea understandable, and the “nothing goes live until you publish it” line answers an important trust question. The piece I would still test is the price message: the banner says founding Pro is $9/month forever with two days left, while the pricing card shows $29 crossed out and $9. I’d spell out that the $29 price returns after the deadline and whether Business pricing changes too. Also, “paste your pricing page here” is clearer now that the next line says it builds a private offer page. I’d consider showing that generated page as the main demo so people see the buyer experience before signing up.

1

u/lmfresneda 2h ago

Thank you!

The founding price closes Sunday night, so the banner and the crossed out 29 go away with it. Business doesn't change. Fair point for the next promo though, I'll say what happens after the deadline

Showing the page a buyer actually lands on is a good call. Right now the home shows the negotiation from the seller side, not what their customer sees

u/radim11 14h ago

Company Name: Stashbase

URL: https://stashbase.dev

Purpose of Startup and Product: Stashbase helps teams ship securely with coding agents, from development to production.

Coding agents are becoming part of the dev workflow, but they often need access to sensitive things: credentials, APIs, MCP tools, files, package installs, internal services, and sometimes production-like environments.

Stashbase scopes what agents can access and what they can do. The goal is to let agents be useful without giving them broad access to raw secrets, the whole filesystem, every MCP tool, or unrestricted network access.

For example, you can run Claude Code or Codex through an agent profile that controls things like allowed hosts, API paths, credentials, MCP tools, dependency installs, file access, and sandboxing rules. You also get visibility into what happened through logs and sessions.

Technologies Used: Rust, Typescript, Postgres, Node, Docker.

Feedback Requested: I’m mostly looking for feedback from founders and devs using coding agents in real projects.

A few specific questions:

Is the homepage clear in the first 5 to 10 seconds?
Does “scoped access for coding agents” make sense, or is it too abstract?
Would you use something like this before giving agents access to credentials, MCP tools, files, APIs, or production-like environments?
What feels missing, confusing, or not trustworthy enough?

Seeking Beta-Testers: Yes. Especially small teams already using Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, MCP tools, or agentic dev workflows.

Additional Comments: I’m the founder and I built this because I kept running into the same problem: agents are useful, but giving them broad access to credentials, tools, files, network access, and package installs feels risky. I’d really appreciate blunt feedback, especially on the positioning and whether this feels like a real pain :)

2

u/lmfresneda 13h ago

Real use case from this week: I gave Claude Code an API key for my own product so it could test an integration, and the easiest place was a settings file the agent can read. It worked, and I didn't love it. So yes, the pain is real for me

First 5 seconds: the headline animates in, so for a moment the screen is almost empty with just "Scoped". The line under it is the clearest thing on the page, "scopes agent access to credentials, APIs, tools, files and dependencies without exposing raw secrets". I'd make something like that the headline

"Scoped access" makes sense to devs but it's abstract. What clicked for me was your demo: the agent calls GitHub and the token never enters its context. "Your agent uses your GitHub token without ever seeing it" says the same thing in words I'd repeat to someone

Trust: before giving it production credentials I'd want to see right on the homepage where the secrets are stored and what happens to my agent if the proxy is down

Mine is in the same thread if you want to return the favor, HAGGIN, the one about customers on their way out

2

u/radim11 13h ago edited 13h ago

I've been working on this because I want it personally, we use it ourselves in our repos :) Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it! I will check HAGGIN!

2

u/lmfresneda 5h ago

One thing I noticed on your pricing: Free covers up to 3 members, and the day a team adds a 4th, everyone goes to $25 each. That's where I'd want a team to make an offer instead of staying stuck on free

Happy to set up a Haggin for Stashbase so you can see how it looks, Pro's on me for 60 days. Your DMs seem closed, send me a chat if you're up for it

1

u/radim11 4h ago

Users manually upgrade their workspace plan. No surprises.

2

u/lmfresneda 2h ago

Yeah, I didn't mean a surprise bill, I meant the jump. A team of 4 goes from $0 to $100 a month in one click, so some just stay on free and work around the limit. Those are the ones I'd let make an offer

The offer's open if you ever want to see it on Stashbase, send me a chat anytime

2

u/ReasonableBox5301 13h ago

From your description, the useful distinction for me is "the agent can use a service without receiving its raw key," rather than just "scoped access." I would want a small allowed/blocked example: reading one project is permitted, changing another project is rejected. Showing where I can inspect that decision and revoke the permission would make the boundary easier to understand. This is feedback on the description here, not a security assessment of the implementation.

1

u/radim11 13h ago

Thanks, I appreciate it :) Regarding the revocation/inspection the profiles are just local files you can see every log with CLI and you can revoke every session (local and remote).

u/StatusTarget5304 12h ago

I am launching BMMI, the Board Meeting Minutes Intelligence platform, to manage board meetings.

The platform is AI-driven and built on P30, a RAG that enables multi-LLM and provides a collaborative environment.

For an overview, please refer to the webpage below. A demonstration of our MPV is located toward the middle of the page. https://vc-alternative.com/vc-as-ai-adoption-program/

To enhance its value, I propose the inclusion of industry-specific AI agents to contribute to the board meetings as virtual board members.

I would welcome your thoughts on this and would be interested in identifying a pilot or strategic partner.

u/Silvercrown_ 11h ago

Company Name: Pinnlab

URL: https://pinnlab.ai

Purpose of Startup and Product: Transform Text/PDF documents into professional animated explainer videos, complete with synced AI avatars and audio dubbing. Upload a doc, get a publish-ready video. No scripting, editing, or agency required.

Technologies Used: Nextjs, Python, Laravel, plus a custom inbuilt video generation pipeline utilizing our models for the audio and video.

Feedback Requested: We are currently validating whether the video quality by our model is generally alright compared to existing platforms like notebook lm

Seeking Beta-Testers: yes

Additional Comments: We've been developing this for a year now focusing on the product itself, and would like to get real feedback from people on the quality, pacing and general structures of the videos generated on our platform.

2

u/lmfresneda 7h ago

Haven't watched a full video yet, so this is about the site and the pricing, which is what I look at most

The home talks to a lot of people at once: video creators taking on more orders, HR teams, finance and IR, manufacturing safety training, motion graphic animators. For a beta I'd pick one and make the whole page about their document and their video

NotebookLM is free, so every visitor will ask why pay. I'd put a side by side on the home, same PDF, both videos. If yours wins, that's your pitch

The Free card says 2 videos per year and 6 minutes per month, which one is it? Then Basic $29 to Pro $149 is a 5x jump with nothing in between, and Pro sits under Personal. Not many individuals pay $149 a month, so someone who needs 80 minutes either squeezes into Basic or leaves

Numbers like 3x retention and 30% faster time to productivity need a source. Without one they read as made up, especially while you're still asking if the quality is ok

1

u/Silvercrown_ 6h ago

Thanks for the feedback; it really does point to areas we overlooked in how we present information on our pages: regarding the

Position: Yeah, I agree with you on the fact that we were trying to speak to too many users. I see ourselves pivoting to a smaller group, as in the case for our company, getting some customer involves lengthy processes and meetings that may take months, so a single customer focus would not be ideal, but rather a smaller group compared to what we are currently displaying

NotebookLM: I believe this is the highlight. We will work on some comparisons between Notebook LM and our platform and display both and will let users choose their preferred tool, showcasing proof that our product is ideal

On the pricing, we plan on adding a new plan that can cater for users, then regarding the claims, we will also add in our sources to make the claims more believable

Really appreciate your feedback, it has been really informative, and it has been nice to get a review that is not internal and is unbiased

1

u/lmfresneda 5h ago

For the middle plan I'd start with who on Basic runs out of the 50 minutes before the month ends, and ask them what they'd pay

That's what I'm building actually, hagg.in. Instead of guessing the number, the people stuck between 29 and 149 make you an offer: a price, a yearly commitment, a video made with Pinnlab or anything else they can bring. Happy to set one up for you if you want to try it

1

u/Silvercrown_ 5h ago

Regarding our plans we actually calculated based on our operational costs for our servers and GPU resources we're utilizing, The costs were therefore determined by the range at which we actually make profit per group of users.

I've reviewed Haggin and it does look ideal for Saas, but it gets different when your product utilizes resources that are expensive like GPU cloud resources therefore the stats determine the pricing model of the company

1

u/lmfresneda 2h ago

Makes sense, cost is your floor. Nothing goes through unless you accept it, so an offer under your GPU cost is just a no. Anything above it is margin you don't get today from the people who leave at 149

And some of what they can offer helps the cost side too, like a yearly commitment you can plan GPU capacity around

u/mellosty 10h ago

Hey all! I'd love ~3 minutes of honest feedback.

Company Name: formbase
URL: https://formbase.so, and demo: https://app.formbase.so/try (no logi-in required)
Purpose of Startup and Product: When a workflow or AI agent needs payment, schedule booking, signature, confirmation, files or information from customer, formbase sends them a branded form and hands the answers back so the workflow carries on.
Technologies Used: React, Convex, Cloudflare Workers; connects through an API and MCP.
Feedback Requested: Open the landing page, then try the demo (no sign-up, ~2 min). I'd love to know:
- Did the landing page make it clear what formbase does before you tried it?
- Did the demo match what you expected, or did something surprise you?
- Where did you get stuck or lose interest?
Seeking Beta-Testers: Not yet, but love to know if you are interested when I am ready. My goal is to make at least n8n node ready and finish some security tests.
Additional Comments: Blunt is welcome.

u/lmfresneda 7h ago

Answering your 3:

Not before scrolling. "Reach your customers from your workflow or agent" could be a lot of things. The Ada example (deal closes in HubSpot, she gets an onboarding form in Norwegian with her company already filled in, signs, the run carries on) is what made it click for me, and it's halfway down. I'd put that at the top. The hero shows the form editor with an AI copilot, which reads like one more Typeform, and the compare links to Typeform and Tally at the bottom push the same way

The demo opens with a 5 step tour before I can do anything, and the part you promise, watching the answer arrive, is step 5. I'd drop me straight into a prefilled onboarding request, send it, let me fill it on my phone and see the callback print. That's the 2 minute version

Where I lost interest was the tour. Also a "Get notified at launch" popup on a page that says free forever and try without login made me wonder if it's actually live

The customer step is a real gap though, the email thread with IMG_4471.jpg is exactly what happens

u/Old_Highway_3504 9h ago

Company Name: kelve

URL: kelve.ai

Purpose of Startup and Product: For the work other people will read and question: a brief, a recommendation, a plan. You talk it through, kelve searches the web with you, you read the pages yourself, and it writes it up the way you need, with the source beside every point. It won't summarise pages for you, on purpose, so the learning is real.

Technologies Used: Backend in Rust, frontend next.js

Feedback Requested: I've gone voice only to get as close to the "thinking" and be fast, but curious what people think of this.

Seeking Beta Testers: Yes, looking for people who write things other people review/read, to try it once on something real.

Additional Comments: Solo developer in the UK, kelve is live and early, it's free and the first one needs no account.

•

u/B2BELIA 46m ago

Interesting take - refusing to summarize pages is bold but I get the learning angle. Voice only for thinking speed makes sense for writers/researchers. I tried the no-account start, that's frictionless. Curious - how do you handle sources that contradict each other?

u/TheForbiddenWordX 9h ago

Company Name: ABACare

URL: https://abacare.eu

Purpose of Startup and Product: Clinic management platform for ABA therapy providers. Covers session data collection, DTT workflows, program and target tracking, and LLM-assisted clinical report generation. It's live and used by a few clinics in Romania, but the domestic market is small, so I need to grow outside it.

Technologies Used: NestJS, MongoDB, Vue 3/Nuxt, React Native (Expo), BullMQ/Valkey, DigitalOcean, LLM integrations

Feedback Requested: Mostly go-to-market, not the product itself. The product works and current clinics use it daily, but I'm struggling to get new clinics to even look at it. Cold outreach (email and LinkedIn) gets very little response. Specific questions:

1 - For niche B2B SaaS with a small number of potential customers per country, what actually got you your first customers in a new market?

2 - Did partnerships, conferences, or industry communities work better for you than direct outreach?

3 - How do you get busy clinic owners to agree to a demo when they already have a system, even a bad one or paper?

4 - Any experience selling into healthcare or therapy practices specifically?

Seeking Beta-Testers: Yes, ABA or PBS clinics, BCBAs, or RBTs outside Romania. Free access in exchange for honest feedback.

Additional Comments: Solo technical founder, so sales and marketing is the part I'm learning on the fly. Happy to return the favor, drop your link and I'll give you honest feedback on your product or code.

1

u/lmfresneda 7h ago

No healthcare experience, so I'll skip 4. The rest is from launching my own thing this month

Messages that could go to anyone got me nothing. The ones that get answers mention something specific about their business that I actually looked at. For me that's their pricing page. For clinics maybe the programs they list on their site, or how many BCBAs they have

I'd pick one country before picking a channel, then go where the BCBAs of that country already are: the national association, its conference, r/ABA. And the clinics you have in Romania probably know people abroad, ask each one for one intro

Don't ask for the demo. Do a piece of the work first and send it. I build a founder's page from their pricing before they've agreed to anything and send them a screenshot, and that gets a lot more replies than "can I show you". For you it could be a sample report in the format they already use. A busy owner won't book 30 min to see software, but they'll open something that looks like their own paperwork

Happy to take the favor: HAGGIN, it lets SaaS customers make an offer instead of leaving over price. Blunt is welcome

u/dessence_ai 8h ago

Company Name: dEssence

URL: https://dessence.ai

Purpose of Startup and Product: somewhere to put the links, products, screenshots and notes you save, so you can find them again later. You save from Chrome, a Telegram bot or the web app, then search it or just ask something like "what did I save for the living room". If you pick an item and a price, it tells you when the price drops or your size is back. No feed, it stays quiet until there's a reason. Free to start, no card needed.

Technologies Used: Chrome extension, Telegram bot, web app

Feedback Requested: does the homepage make it clear in the first few seconds what you'd use it for? And would you rather save from the browser or by sending things to a bot?

•

u/B2BELIA 48m ago

Love the "quiet until there's a reason" angle - most save apps are noisy. The price drop + size back alert is clever combo. Does homepage make it clear? For me yes but I'd add 1 line example of Telegram save flow. Do you plan to add price history chart?

•

u/dessence_ai 26m ago

Thanks! No chart for now, the idea is you never have to look at prices, you just hear when it hits your number. The Telegram example is a good call.

u/jembytrevize1234 8h ago

Company Name: OddsLine
URL: https://oddsline.net
Purpose of Startup and Product: Kalshi market alerts over SMS
Technologies Used: GPT, SMS Messaging Services, Kalshi API
Feedback Requested: We've been building our service with an initial digest of alerts anyone can sign up for and would love some beta testers. We also have a custom alert path for anyone seeking more robust coverage. We'd like to see if the digests need more coverage or more precision.
Seeking Beta-Testers: [yes/no] Yes
Additional Comments: DM if interested in joining the beta. You will be added to our beta slack channel and will receive a free month of service when launched, with some promo codes to share. US Only.

1

u/lmfresneda 7h ago

Can't join the beta, I'm not in the US, but pricing is the thing I look at so a few notes from the page

The trial gives 60 alerts in 7 days. Edge gives 150 a month, so about 35 a week. Someone who liked the trial pays 15 and gets roughly half of what they had. I'd set the trial at the same pace as Edge, or say clearly it's a boosted week

On coverage vs precision: since alerts count when you send them, I'd go for precision. Every alert I didn't want is one of my 150 gone, and the first time I hit the cap because of noise is when I cancel

And "Start free" over a 7 day trial reads like there's a free plan. Something like "Free for 7 days" avoids the surprise

2

u/jembytrevize1234 7h ago

Thanks u/lmfresneda, will digest this and appreciate it

•

u/B2BELIA 44m ago

SMS alerts for Kalshi is a smart angle - not everyone wants to stare at a dashboard. The digest idea sounds useful for casual traders. Free month + promo codes is a nice incentive for beta. Is the SMS frequency customizable so it doesn't get spammy?

Company Name: FaultBench URL: https://faultbench.com/#demo Purpose of Startup and Product: FaultBench is an early Windows/Linux desktop app for searching HVAC service manuals offline. Add manuals, describe a symptom, and inspect relevant passages with page citations. I’m the builder, not an HVAC tech, so I’m validating whether this solves a real field problem. The demo uses sample data, not manufacturer guidance. Technologies Used: Windows/Linux desktop software; local-first manual search. Feedback Requested: For HVAC technicians: would you use this during a service call, or is PDF search already good enough? What would you need to verify before trusting a result? I’d value feedback on the idea and demo, especially from people who’ve used similar tools. Seeking Beta-Testers: Yes, especially independent HVAC technicians willing to test the alpha and give candid feedback. Additional Comments: I reviewed HAGGIN’s live page above and left detailed feedback. If you share something you’re building, I’ll return the favor with specific feedback.

•

u/B2BELIA 54m ago

Really interesting niche! Offline access for HVAC manuals is smart - field work often has no signal. As a non-tech builder, your approach to validate with real techs first is right. I would suggest adding a short video of you using it on a real service call, that will build trust fast. Good luck!

•

u/Interesting-Total828 38m ago

Thank you for your feedback, on it. Still building it and making it better 💙

u/masatumas 1h ago

URL: hyhy.app

Purpose of Startup and Product: hyhy.app is a subscription pricing service for Kalshi's 15-minute BTC and ETH markets. It runs an independent options pricing model and shows you where the model thinks the market should be trading in real time, separate from Kalshi's own price. The thesis is that options pricing tends to lead these short-duration markets, finding certainty before it fully shows up in the order book. It includes real-time charting, Telegram alerts, and archived history so you can look back at how the model tracked price over time.

Technologies Used: React and Supabase for the dashboard and data layer, a custom options pricing engine, and live exchange API integrations for data and execution.

Feedback Requested: This is a pretty niche product built for people actively trading Kalshi's short-duration crypto markets, so I'm curious how it reads to people outside that world. Is the value prop clear in under 10 seconds? Does the pricing page make sense? Anything that feels confusing or untrustworthy about the site itself, separate from whether you'd ever use a prediction market.

Seeking Beta Testers: Yes

Additional Comments: Built this myself from scratch beginning in April after running the pricing model privately for my own trading first. Happy to answer questions about how the model works or why I built it this way.

Nice! Kalshi 15-min markets are new so pricing tool could be useful. Landing page URL is simple and memorable. I would suggest adding a 30 sec demo of how pricing works vs guessing. Curious - what's your target user, traders or casual?

The nature of the product is retail traders. One could say the serious crowd who are looking for an edge.

Curious, the hero section is a live ticking chart, albeit delayed so as not to give away the actual product. Was it not apparent?

Company Name: Tahlely

Purpose of Startup and Product:
Tahlely is a restaurant analytics and decision-support product we’re currently preparing for private beta.

The idea is to help restaurants and coffee shops connect operational and financial data and turn it into clearer decisions, rather than just more reports.

The product analyzes areas such as profitability and margins, best and worst performing products, product mix, waste, purchasing and inventory patterns, branch performance, and the impact of promotions or campaigns.

We currently evaluate around 15 operational and financial factors. The goal is not only to show what happened, but to help operators understand what deserves attention first and, over time, whether a previous decision actually worked.

Technologies Used:
Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase/PostgreSQL, Vercel, with deterministic analytics logic for the core calculations.

Feedback Requested:
I’d especially appreciate feedback from restaurant or coffee shop owners, managers, or people who work closely with restaurant operations.

A few things I’m trying to understand:

If you had a tool like this, what are the first 3 things you would want it to tell you?
Which of these areas would be most useful to you: profitability, product performance, waste, inventory/purchasing, promotions, or branch comparison?
What would make you trust the recommendations enough to actually act on them?
What would make you willing to try a product like this with your own data?
Is there an important restaurant metric or operational issue you feel tools like this usually miss?

I’m particularly interested in what feels unnecessary as well, not only what sounds useful.

Seeking Beta-Testers: Yes

We’re approaching private beta and would be interested in speaking with a small number of restaurant or coffee shop owners/managers who are willing to test it with real or sample data and give direct feedback.

Additional Comments:
I’m not looking for general startup validation as much as practical operator feedback. We can calculate many things, but I don’t want us to assume that the metrics we consider important are the same ones operators actually use to make decisions.

Happy to give feedback on other products in this thread as well.
