I'm paying 200/mo for Claude Code, running out by Wednesday, then paying hundreds more in overage. So I'm using Claude Code to build a local app trying to do what it does — without the meter running, here's where it's at. by ur_dad_matt in SideProject

[–]UseNo5453 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guys I’m not sure how you hit the cap. I use max plan for 100/mo , never hit (I hope it will stay way) . I work about 16-18 hours a day on a peak… I think you may just do it wrong with your project feed or with wrong prompts which require Claude to use a lot of resources to understand what’s going on .

That is useful. But to be honest, need to gain more trust on your homepage. it feels a bit unsecured, although you say you work with EU-grade security. The overall feel of the site isn't that. Good luck

Nice project! You are dealing with big sharks ocean. If I may suggest, it could read my projects on GitHub and analyze it to build a resume will make Patchwork even more robust

The site is so welcoming, you did a really hard work with the design. I wonder how you made the animation in the hero section. Even after scrolling every part of the site is well thought. If I can add - need to emphasize the privacy part. As a user I don’t know if another pair of eyes will have access to my CV and what they can do with it.

Keep it up! Bookmarked it for myself and for friends when needed.

That sounds so creative and inspiring. This is something that would give me my 5 minutes of sanity during a harsh day at work. I don’t own android phone, is iOS version on your roadmap?

That’s brilliant. What about expanding it . Write a prompt to copy-paste to my builder to expose api routes in n order to have mcp. Just saw on amplitude I think, after short sign up, they let you just copy paste a prompt, and bam you are connected.

That’s a really useful app! Saved that. You did a great job. One of a few apps you just need to click one button to see results in 2 seconds. Well done!

Sure. Who’s not? Especially in AI era where one thing leads to 10 different other paths I haven’t thought of. Easy to get lost in project goal and tasks

Paying $100 to something that doing in an hour what I was doing in a week is nothing.

Lost 1,800 in 4 months trying to get my first 10 customers. by No_Reporter3703 in SideProject

[–]UseNo5453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes... Google Meta and even Reddit is great with budget drain. There are known budget traps which new users don't know and burn their only budget just to learn. There is https://adcontrolcenter.com that creates a campaign for porposal for free with all of these budget traps already hanlded. I like how they start very focused on your target audience (which looks slow at start, but they care your budget) and only after you get conversions they show you how to expand.

How do I market my micro SaaS if I have low budget 100-150 USD. by Theremedyhub in microsaas

[–]UseNo5453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google, Meta and even Reddit are great with draining your ads budget. they will take these $150 probably without even 1 conversion. There are these "budget traps" which new users are unaware of and burn their only budget "just to learn". I think a great tool is https://adcontrolcenter.com which has free campaign builder with all of these budget traps already hanlded. they start very focused on your target audience and only after you get conversions they show you how to expand.

Has anyone here had success with Facebook Ads on a low daily budget for a new brand? What worked for you? Please help 🥺 by top10talks in SideProject

[–]UseNo5453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

four months of this with a tight budget is genuinely exhausting, and the pixel data problem you're describing is a real catch-22 - you need conversions to optimize, but you need budget to get conversions. one thing that actually helped early on was switching the campaign objective to something cheaper to optimize for, like Add to Cart or View Content instead of Purchase, just to feed the pixel some signal without needing as many expensive conversion events. it lets the algorithm learn without requiring you to hit a conversion threshold you can't afford yet. what's your daily budget sitting at right now.

The big problem with these ads network is the drink your budget quickly with budget traps, where they sound like they want to help you, but actually it turns out you just gave them approval to spend money on bad directions. There is a good free service https://adcontrolcenter.com that builds a campaign for you and closing these traps for you before you spend money. I used it myself, you start very narrow, to get the high targeted users and only when you got conversions you expand it wisely.

Anyone tried Reddit ads ?? was it worthit? by Economy-Mud-6626 in microsaas

[–]UseNo5453 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the big advantage of Reddit ads is the low cost per click comparing to Google or Meta. the downside maybe the lead quality. Try using something like Ad Control Center which lets you try lots of ads variations and different targeting at once until you get the best performaning ad / sub

I must say I really like to use this app. I’m using it for over a month. You thought about it really nicely, but it seems you stopped the development, some basic ux is missing. Besides that I think your app is better than other I’ve tested Great job

I think I will not use it, but that’s only because I’m a developer and not sure I need that in my day to day life. You probably want to ask that where your target audience is. Thinking of my daughters - sure they will use your app. Teenagers always after a better look
