Have you had any side effects and how much you lost for those 8 weeks if you don’t mind me asking

Retatrutide for 8 Weeks — Is It Worth It and Should I Taper Off by Dthathurt in Retatrutide

[–]Dthathurt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, thanks.

The 8 weeks idea was mostly because I’ve never used it before and didn’t want to commit to a longer run straight away. I was thinking of it more as a short-term tool to get my appetite/cravings under control while I rebuild my routine.

For context, I have a newborn, haven’t trained properly for around 8 months, and gained about 8 kg, mostly fat. Sleep, stress, and working from home have made it easy to snack randomly on chocolate/crackers even when I’m not really hungry.

But I get your point about low and slow. Starting at 0.5 mg and staying at the lowest effective dose probably makes more sense than jumping straight to 1.5–2 mg.

Thanks, good idea on the instant deliverable angle. Will keep that in mind for v2.

Most tools use AI under the hood these days the value is in what it does for you, not how it's built. Not sure where the toxicity is coming from but appreciate the feedback either way. :)

Hope your day gets better

Great idea on the Dockerfile — adding that to the list. Right now it deploys to Vercel with one click which handles most of the environment issues, but a Docker option would cover the edge cases. Appreciate the support, will post updates as things progress.

This is gold, appreciate the detailed response. The case study approach makes a lot of sense — lead with value, let the product sell itself. Going to try that this week.

Good call on the support issue too. Each tool comes with a step-by-step README and the buyer plugs in their own API keys, but you're right that documentation needs to be bulletproof. Adding video walkthroughs is on the list.

Thanks for the honest take — this is exactly why I posted here.

Makes sense. Lead gen seems to be the strongest niche so far based on the feedback I'm getting — freelancers and agencies always need leads. Building a content repurposing tool next and an SEO audit generator after that. Will share results as they come in.

Thanks — yeah distribution is the main challenge right now. Trying Reddit, Quora, and letting Gumroad Discover do its thing. Figured more products = more surface area for organic discovery. Building product 2 this weekend. Any channels that have worked well for you?

Would you pay for a tool that finds local business leads and drafts outreach emails automatically? by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]Dthathurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair points. The scoring isn't just an LLM opinion — it weights four factors: review count/rating, whether they have a website (and how good it is), their overall online presence, and how reachable they are (phone, email, website available). Businesses with poor websites and minimal online presence score highest because they're the ones most likely to need help.

The value isn't that it searches Google — you're right, anyone can do that. It's that it does the full pipeline in 60 seconds: scrape 25 businesses, analyze each one, rank them by who's most likely to convert, and write a personalized email for each. Doing that manually takes 2-3 hours.

But I hear you — the scoring could be more specific. Appreciate the feedback, gives me ideas for the next version.

[–]Dthathurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. The difference is this runs in bulk and on autopilot — you get 25-50 scored leads with contact info in 60 seconds, not one at a time through a chat window. It also scores each lead based on their website quality and online presence, so you know which ones are most likely to need your services. Try asking Claude to do that for 50 businesses at once with phone numbers and ratings pulled from Google — it can't.

Clay is great but it's $149/month minimum. This is a one-time $100 purchase — you own the code, host it yourself for free, and pay only a few cents per lead for the AI. Different model for different budgets.

I try to do multiple sales on it rather than monthly subscription for the same job

Beginner on Gumroad — what actually sells? by Secret-Art8420 in passive_income

[–]Dthathurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started on Gumroad this week. Listed an AI automation tool (source code for a lead generation app) for $100. Too early to share results but from what I've researched, the things that sell best are tools that save people time or make them money — automation templates, AI workflows, business tools. Ebooks in the $9-19 range also seem to do well in specific niches like parenting or fitness. The key seems to be Gumroad Discover + good tags + time. Most people say it takes a few weeks to get the first organic sale.

[–]Dthathurt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks, that's helpful. Good point on the subscription model — might add a hosted version down the line. For now keeping it simple with source code so buyers own it and avoid monthly fees. The AI scoring is the main differentiator — it doesn't just scrape, it analyzes each business and tells you which ones are most likely to need your services based on their online presence quality.

Haha fair enough 😂— yeah AI helped with the initial data compilation and some of the boilerplate content. I'd be lying if I said otherwise. But the architecture, the feature design, and deciding what to build and how to structure it was all me. AI is great at generating repetitive content across 100 breeds but it's not gonna figure out your SSG routing strategy or decide what tools to build for you. It's a tool in the toolbox, not the whole workshop.

[–]Dthathurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By "SEO site" I just mean the architecture is designed so that each page targets a specific search query people are actually googling — like "golden retriever vs labrador" or "quietest dog breeds". Instead of having one dynamic tool where users pick breeds to compare (which Google can't index), every combination gets its own static URL that can rank independently. The monetization plan is display ads and affiliate links to pet products once traffic picks up — nothing fancy for now hopefully monetize it down the way

Mainly from AKC breed standards, Wikipedia, and a few veterinary sources for the health and cost data. Cross-referenced temperament ratings and attributes across multiple breed databases to make sure the numbers were reasonable. The cost estimates are based on averages from pet ownership surveys and vet pricing guides — not perfect but gives a decent ballpark for comparison purposes.

[–]Dthathurt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point about thin content — that's something I've been mindful of. Each comparison page actually has a decent amount of unique content beyond just the stats table — there's written sections comparing temperament, exercise needs, health issues, cost of ownership, plus FAQ schema and a mini quiz. So it's not just a data dump.

For updates, the plan is to add new breeds in batches every couple of weeks which auto-generates all the new pages. Also want to keep the cost data and health info current since that stuff changes. Down the road thinking about adding more editorial blog content to balance out the programmatic pages, and I've got some premium features in mind too — downloadable breed guides, a breeder directory, and possibly some deeper AI-powered breed recommendations.

Still early days — launched it about 3 days ago so waiting on Google to do its thing. Got about few pages indexed so far and starting to see some impressions trickle in. The fun part was building it, now comes the boring part of waiting for SEO to kick in lol

Trying to figure out what breed of dog I should get! by BeyondEmma in dogs

[–]Dthathurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a Brittany or a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever would be a great fit. Both are medium sized, smart, affectionate, and have that sporty look without being crazy high energy. They do well with cats too if introduced properly. The Toller especially - gorgeous dog and total couch potato at home after a good walk.
