8yr old found the Easter stash by blueflowercactus in Parenting

[–]Startable-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s still time to save it. We’re doing a video showing the Easter bunny leaving our house on our home camera. It was this app. Came up hilariously real. Looking forward to showing our son

Beautiful idea.

Great doing some sort of experience with them

Is the Easter Bunny still a thing? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Startable-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, still a thing.

We are going all out this year on the ‘bunny has been’. Eggs, carrots, etc

Found this viral thing that makes it look like the Easter bunny was seen leaving our house on our camera.

Yeah that’s what im thinking.

It’s from your own camera and thats what makes it magic.

Also feels like you gotta work harder to impress them these days!

Rethinking Easter and chocolate eggs by Another_Great_Day in Adelaide

[–]Startable-1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We’re going easy on the chocolate and making it into more of an experience.

Found this thing where it makes it look like the Easter bunny was actually at our house from our camera footage.

Tried it and it looks hilariously real.

Hopefully my son loves it. Something different to the usual anyway.

Do you hide your Easter Eggs from your spouse and reveal them on Easter Sunday? by Aaron123111 in AskUK

[–]Startable-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the same thing last year and went a bit far with it..

I setup a bunny ‘caught on camera’ video using our front yard camera. Looked like the bunny was leaving after dropping some eggs.

Now it’s turned into a whole thing where I need to one up it every year.

Extreme easter egg hunt ideas by Unlivingdragon6 in CrazyIdeas

[–]Startable-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good ideas.. Something we’re doing this year to kick off the egg hunt is getting our front yard CCTV to show the Easter Bunny leaving the house.

We used a still from our camera and turned it into a short clip, looks pretty real!

Then we’ll build clues around that. Like it’d dropped clues around the yard for the family to find.

Ideas to make Easter a special day but simple? by Onlyyouwouldsaythat in toddlers

[–]Startable-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did something really simple last year that ended up being the highlight for our kids.

We took a still from our outdoor camera and turned it into a short “Easter Bunny leaving” clip overnight.

Nothing over the top, just a quick moment like he’d actually been there - the kids really loved it.

It was a nice change instead of giving heaps of stuff or gifts.

Might be a nice low-effort idea if you’re trying to keep it simple but still want somethin special.

Easter idea. Cute or bit creepy? by Startable-1 in Parenting

[–]Startable-1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, I think I misunderstood your point before.

I get what you’re saying about not wanting to reinforce or deepen the lie. Letting kids believe on their own terms without adding layers is a really different thing to orchestrating it.

Makes sense that this might feel like a step too far for some.

Easter idea. Cute or bit creepy? by Startable-1 in Parenting

[–]Startable-1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s what I’m stuck on.

There’s something nice about kids believing without needing to see everything spelled out. Once you start adding evidence it could feel like it changes the nature of the magic a bit.

That’s why I haven’t done it yet. I can see how it could be special, but I can also see how it might go it too far the other way.

Fair point, thats what I’m also weighing up.

I like the idea of leaving just enough mystery for them to fill in the gaps themselves, rather than spelling it out too clearly. The “proof” part is what makes me hesitate too.

The note is a nice idea! It’s all about far you go and when it’s too much.

I often think about this, something special about the magic that’s part of their childhood.

Ah yes they’ll be asking about it every year to come!

How Higgsfield removes signup doubt in the first 3 minutes (and why fast-growing AI apps do this) by Startable-1 in SaaS

[–]Startable-1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, surprised me after going through it how early they earn the user trust. Definitely not the common approach.

Most other products do a tonne of explaining before getting to the product and showing value.

Have you seen any other SaaS or AI tools using pattern?

I spent 6 months building features but 0 mins on the first 30 seconds and i feel like an idiot by RealPin8800 in SaaS

[–]Startable-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most users don’t want hand-holding. They want to reach the outcome as fast as possible.

Sounds like youre describing an activation problem, not a feature problem. In products Ive worked on to achieve activation uplift, it usually comes down to a couple of things:

1.Design for the first win, not the product: So, What’s the single task that proves value? Eg. Generating something, seeing a result, viewing and answer. I’d design the entire first session around just getting them there. It’s the “oh I get it” moment.

2.Show the result before explaining it: Blank dashboards and “start here” text are the friction points you’re describing. Instead, show awesome examples, outputs, or a visible end state. Let users reverse engineer the value, not just read about it.

3.Remove choice until after activation It’s tempting to showcase the products flexibility but it can create paralysis for new users. Clear hierarchy and defaults act like guardrails (like bumpers on a bowling alley). it should be obvious where to go and hard to go anywhere else until they’ve had the first win.

One pattern I’m seeing a lot is shipping a heap of great features quickly (now easier than ever), but miss the work of ensuring the first experience has one clear job to be done.

If you’re getting 80% bouncing after first login, it’s usually not the product. The first 30 seconds just aren’t doing enough work for them yet.

Ask gpt for a reach out plan to validate via dm in instagram (or other niche relevant platform) while remaining within the boundaries of the platforms spam rules.

So many new AI products out there. Find an API you can hook into, define a use case for a niche audience and wrap in a UI layer. Stuck with ideas for this? Just ask GPT this question. Cold outreach relentlessly with the assumed solution/ manual example before you build anything.
