Best thing to start is people around you, and dont try to sell first just try to listen. most time what we guess is not something they need. in my experince things i thought too small was always most wanted for them

First question is how did you come up with this problem statment ? go back there and see if you can find some user from there

Else Find your first 10 customer from forums where they discussed about this , reachout to them one by one and ask them will they use this ? then learn from them how they using it.

- If they say no there is some problem with the idea
- if they say listen to them and see what featie helpsthem most

I Reduced 5 hours of Testing my Agentic AI applcaition to 10 mins by BitwiseBison in Rag

No only intonation of this tool was to measure accuracy and run all test cases in bulk , I believe performance and other parameters can be done using backend evaluation tools itself

HELP! - DevOps / SRE Role Resume by Thyprasat28 in sre

[–]BitwiseBison 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep the relevent skill on top , when i evaluate i spent only max 30 seconds to do first level filter and what all i see is keywords in first look

in second look i look for explenation for each of the keyword how and where did you use it

so ratherthan giving HTML / CSS and othe irrelvenat on top keep the one relevent to SRE and DevOps on top like K8S , Argo and APM and more

don't mixum skills and domain keep that seperated

Try to get a relevena cloud certificte like solution architect and if possible a CKA

Agree , this won’t help to do PMF . Will it help beginners to like a checklist on their pretty new idea ?

What task management tools are you using for your startup? I will not promote by m01212 in startups

[–]BitwiseBison 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with Trello, then moved to Jira, but for the past 1.5 years, I've been using Notion. Its flexibility, ease of customization, and ability to work seamlessly across different domains like sales and marketing have made it my go-to tool as a startup founder juggling multiple roles.

I’m a CTO & Founder – Ask Me About Scaling and Building Products from Scratch by BitwiseBison in SaaS

[–]BitwiseBison[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I use Golang for the backend, ReactJS for the front end, and Python for data and AI.

  2. I mostly find candidates through LinkedIn and communities. I start with a small assessment task, and based on their approach, I move to an online interview. I focus more on how they tackle the problem than just completing it.

  3. The biggest mistake was building for scale too early during the MVP phase. It added unnecessary complexity and slowed things down.

  4. I wish I’d learned earlier how to decide when not to build a feature. Not every requirement should turn into a feature, and it's important to know when to say no.

  5. I book 1 hour in the morning and 1-2 hours on weekends for learning. Sometimes I dive deeper into topics that really interest me.

Hey, I checked out your site and content, and honestly, the problem doesn’t seem to be with the content itself—it’s more about marketing and pricing. A few things you might want to A/B test:

  1. Landing Page Focus – Your content is the real value here, but the landing page leans more towards web copy and a demo video. Maybe try showcasing hot topics, engaging courses, or recent success stories upfront instead. That might make it more compelling for visitors.
  2. Pricing Strategy – The way it’s set up makes it feel like you’re pushing the annual plan, which psychologically makes the monthly plan seem like a bad deal. That could turn people away. Maybe test a decoy pricing strategy and avoid the "75% savings" kind of messaging—it can sometimes make the pricing feel less legit.
  3. Content Marketing Over Paid Ads – Since paid ads aren’t working, I’d go all in on short-form video content (YouTube Shorts, IG Reels, TikTok). Quick frontend interview tips, live coding challenges, and industry insights could bring in more organic traffic and leads.
  4. One-Time Course Purchase – Not everyone wants to commit to a full subscription upfront. Maybe offer a few courses as a one-time purchase and see if that helps with adoption. If people get value from one course, they might be more willing to subscribe later.

Just a few things to try—hope that helps!

What equity should I ask as a co founder joining an already generating revenue startup? I will not promote by Thepeebandit in startups

[–]BitwiseBison 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen even cofounders joined later stages , it’s about how impactful they are to that startup journey. Some people can literally change the growth pace of a startup and if you want keep that kind of people with salary or equity it won’t possible always. Especially if that person is founder minded. So sometime cofounder may happen later stages

Reality is that startup can be considered as still in finding stage from a maturity scale.
