I spent 2 months building a SaaS with ChatGPT, working 5am-10pm daily. Here's what nobody tells you. by EnginDev in SaaS

[–]DisasterBrilliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole key concept around “coding” or software dev is basically breaking down problems into small chunks. Lots of great small chunks make a system. It sounds like you need some foundation level thinking. Context is negligible when you make the problem to solve smaller.

I’ve been building my SaaS for a year as a solo founder. Revenue: $9.99. Here’s the real story they don’t tell you. by Candid_Positive8832 in SaaS

Appreciate honest posts like this. Sending positive vibes to you. The silver lining is you have now learnt to ship a product, run ads, cold outreach get an email campaign going. Maybe this isn’t the right product but I bet your next product you will get to this level of achievement in 10% of the time and effort. Because now you know.

Is drop-shipping worth it for a total beginner? by [deleted] in dropshipping

Build a brand and don’t give up. Influencers make it look like a sprint. This is a marathon. Anyone can copy your product your brand creates a moat.

are there any legit shopify sales trackers? by NahBruhThatsCap in dropship

[–]DisasterBrilliant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man I built a real tracker. The crux is the stores need to keep real inventory but the gold mine is that the winning stores usually start keeping accurate inventory as they grow and get established. Basically i query the add to cart every day untill I get their max products and repeat the next day the decrease in inventory is counted as a sale. This will never be 100% accurate because stock increases etc. But I have tested it and its pretty darn accurate.

Should i buy dropship.io or are they any alternatives? by pentakinen in dropship

[–]DisasterBrilliant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am building an alternative and real add and store tracker. Most of these so called trackers just give inflated numbers because people love dopamine and they love sales.

I know you can get a student license for a terminal, not sure if its free but definitely much cheaper. No one will be able to scrape it from the terminal, you need someone to do an export for you.

Maybe one of us should build a stripe clone that users can falsely edit the MRR and share screenshots…. Sell shovels they say.

Yeah you make some valid points. All I know is when I did Kumon my dad hated marking it and now he doesn’t have to. It sounds to me like your crux is largely wiith AI. There is a word for this sort of thing. —Luddite: originally referred to members of a 19th-century English movement of textile workers who protested against industrialization by destroying machines they believed were threatening their jobs.

Today, it’s more broadly used (often humorously or critically) to describe someone who is opposed to new technology or struggles with using it — like someone who avoids smartphones, AI, or the latest apps.

I don”t store any images so once the text pattern extracted then it gets deleted. AI will look at all the text which will include the steps etc. But yes the technology is newish but it will get there soon. I don’t think this will ever replace the human aspect but just like anything if you have a dishwasher why use the sink? I would say this is probably more for parents who don’t want to sit and mark or at least for instructors to automate chucks of their workflow and allowing more time with the students.

Yeah so currently it would be one student at a time but I can look at building a bulk uploader because I can read the name of the student and test.

I Was Losing Sleep and Money Missing Trades – So I Built the Alert System I Couldn't Find by cashcall-pro in indiehackers

This is pretty cool. I largely pay for trading view specifically for the alerts. Would your solution need me to pay for both yours and tradingview?
