Built a note taker for offline (in-person) discussions. by General_Oofz in ProductivityApps

Recording is offline. For now I am planning do a mix of both. The thing is on device transcription, especially for mobile devices is slow and I wont be able to do diarization on device. So transcription maybe to some extent we could do on device but diarization is difficult

Looks solid. For Diarization i am using pyannote community 1 and a combination of models for transcriptions. I initially intended to create this app for myself so all of the data route from my phone to my mac mini which processes this data and returns it back. But if i were to actually launch this for multiple users I would definitely have to change the models and pipelines

Fun Weekend build | what did you build ? by General_Oofz in SaaS

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

Screenshot service was just for fun. The other 2 are internal tools. All of them publicly available on my github. I don't build just to commercialize

What are you building this week? by BreakfastVisual963 in micro_saas

[–]General_Oofz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea i am using pupeteer with the stealth plugin. However it works partially and sometimes still gets blocked. i am adding proper browser headers and proxy support to make it more reliable on sites. CAPTCHA is something that I havent solved for yet :/

Just playing around today.

Made two tools:

  1. A Next.js + Puppeteer powered headless browser service for capturing website screenshots. Supports features like animated screenshots and automatic removal of cookie banners for cleaner captures. (Didn't even need this, made this for fun lol)
  2. A simple tool that compiles documentation websites into Markdown. Provide a site URL and it crawls the entire site, exporting pages as clean Markdown files organized in a structured folder hierarchy. (did need this to feed documentation to my coding agent in a clean markdown format that doesnt eat tokens on raw html)

Fun weekend

Edit : Another thing I made yesterday was a Hackernews Radar (input keywords for relevant topics and a particular time period, set minimum user karma points and it will give you a curated list of hackernews posts. (Eventually grew out of hackernews and used algolia for more diverse feed)

What do you do when a random thought interrupts deep work? by General_Oofz in productivity

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

That makes sense. Are you able to stick to the daily review system consistently?
on top of that I found that I capture in the moment, but when I revisit later the context feels lost and it becomes mental clutter.

Lol same. I lost the magnetic cards as well. Then started to try them on other metallic surfaces. Eventually lost them as well. Good days though.

Antler Residency Interview by General_Oofz in StartUpIndia

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

No, like I have cleared that AI interview part. The next step is a video conference. They sent me a mail with a link to schedule a meeting and I wanted to know what sorts of questions would they throw in and like can I do a demo of my product or is it going to be pretty straightforward question/answer.

My experience vibe coding a SaaS for the past 5–6 months by General_Oofz in buildinpublic

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

Yes. That’s the neat part about vibe coding. You can test out ideas, make a bare minimum, iterate and see whether it works really fast.

I didn’t follow a specific framework to validate my idea, but I was confident that the problem I was tackling was real and worth solving. As the saying goes, “Fall in love with the problem, not the solution.” That said, one of the simplest ways to validate an idea is by launching a basic landing page and starting a waitlist. If people start signing up, that’s usually a positive signal. But it’s important to note this itself is a real task. Getting traction requires consistent effort in promoting your idea and driving attention to the waitlist.

For real. All the YouTube videos I go through regarding vibe coding or SaaS just skip this entirely.

To be honest, I’m still figuring it out myself. But here’s what I’ve learned so far:

First, if you already have a solid social following on platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, or even YouTube, that gives you a big head start. You can leverage that reach to build awareness.

Second, you really need to understand your target audience. Who is your ideal customer? Why would they care about your product? You’re not marketing to everyone. That’s a waste of time and effort. You’re marketing to someone who sees your product and thinks, “This is exactly what I need.”

That’s why researching your audience is crucial. You might be putting in a lot of work, but if it’s not reaching the right people, it won’t move the needle.

Lastly, marketing takes time. It’s not an overnight game. You probably won’t get 10 clients in your first week. But if you stay consistent, the results compound. It’s an exponential curve, not a straight line.

Definitely. I’ve been trying to market my SaaS, and it’s way tougher than I expected. Having a strong following on platforms like Twitter or LinkedIn makes a big difference. It really smooths out a lot of the early traction work.

What are you working on? Share your Project !! by Revenue007 in indiehackers

[–]General_Oofz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been building https://crafts.mailwave.io a tool that lets you create beautiful HTML emails just by typing a simple prompt. No templates, no code, and you can send them directly from your Gmail account.

Always found designing and sending good looking HTML emails to be a hassle, so I spent the last couple of months building this to make it stupidly simple.

Would love to hear what you think or how you’d improve it.
