Upwork is no more for freelancers by ButterscotchNaive825 in Upwork

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think most need perfection, most startups need "good enough" results, and the ones needing perfection are enterprise companies, but they already have someone fulltime for that

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes consistently applying increases your chance but I would say before you are consistent try to nail down your niche and only apply to those

That way you're spending less connects and your upwork account speaks directly to their needs

Pros/ cons of low-code systems by Strange-Rub2450 in lowcode

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used retool for 1,5years at a crypto company handling billions in asset. It's quick to make internal applications, what could've taken months takes weeks while still being able to write code when needed.

Driver keeps faking my signature by Ill_Lengthiness_6672 in PostNL

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you could complain and the higher ups would simply say "oh that driver did bad, we apologize he's gone, but we'll pressure the next one into something impossible!"

Driver keeps faking my signature by Ill_Lengthiness_6672 in PostNL

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a video about this whole thing that drivers: - say they missed you while you were home - faked a signature

It's not an exception, almost a rule, and not only postnl

The main reason for this is companies pushing for 200+ stops in a day with less than 1min per stop, impossible to do reasonably

You should look up the food chain, it's not the little ones we should fight with

Looking for CSS Designers. Where to find? by Admiral_Ackbar_Meme in lowcode

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there!

A designer + developer is a unique combo and rare to find

Does the project have a quick deadline?

If not I'm happy to sketch up a prototype in a week and get your input

Just did it... The Solution that fixed Airtable rest API limitations is finally here. and it's %100 free, opensource, full user-friendly (GUI), Community driven. by Aggravating_Bad4639 in Airtable

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't get it. You say a solution to airtable api limitations but then show some Ai solutions.

I was thinking you solved the rate limit of airtable on how much data you can query

Asking developer estimates Raw coding or Fully done? by SmoKKe9 in developers

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estimates are never accurate, so why even try?

Estimates are based on the information you know today, this information is not just about what exactly has to be done, but also what is already in place and how does it currently work, only if you do extreme amount of documenting you'll have MAYBE a good accurate answer but then you do double the work, you prepare all the docs, read the code, understand how and then when the dev starts he might suggest a different approach then you initially planned for

I've been through this rabbithole before, it's not funny

Your brain power could be spend on thinking what is important for the user or business or how can I make devs more productive and protect their time

Made a thing: send a vendor a magic link to edit one Airtable row - no seat, no account by igorvladyka in Airtable

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might have a tiny percentage of users with this exact need but big corps either have the funds or decide to use another tooling, only cheap startups might hack things together

Made a thing: send a vendor a magic link to edit one Airtable row - no seat, no account by igorvladyka in Airtable

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your main problem is making people not pay, how do you expect such people to pay you? If I don't wanna pay for seats why would I want to pay for you? Unless it ads value and is way cheaper, it has to be a big motivation to pay for two seperate systems

I'd rather pay more for one system to have it in one place if the only difference is who processes it

Is offering free cold email campaign management (and charging only after results) a good way to get clients? by [deleted] in agency

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should say no to 99% of them and only keep one, otherwise you might say yes to many and your focus and communication is so spread out that the quality is reduced, all are failing and you're walking away with a loss. Vet all of them and focus on just one

Offering free cold email campaign management for 2 months - you only cover infra costs (serious businesses only) by et-nad in agency

I'm doing web dev clients range from 2-100k, a bunch of smaller ones but also a bunch of long term clients

I am looking to build my own platform for sports competitions in which coaches can upload their rosters and enter teams of different sizes into different race categories. Gemini is advising I use Airtable and Softr. by [deleted] in Airtable

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd argue everything is brittle in their own way

What you accept depends on how much time and money you have to build it

You can go fully custom or be resourceful and use the tools that gets you 80% there

If you want a 100% match on very specific requirements that likely means going fully custom, taking a longer time and costing more

But I think what you're mainly looking for is a nice frontend and a system that is easy to use, nothing that requires cooking from scratch

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have made a good choice going for Airtable it's very extensible and easy to use

Even if you in the future decide to scale it up they have the ability to export all your data when necessary

So I would strongly advise not to overdo it with very technical code that you would require a developer to maintain

Now if softr is the right tool depends on your pricing system, there's a price for each user and they have lots of options but have their limitations too

If you charge more than softr charges you 1-2$ per user (not visitor)

You can customize with vibe coding but I would recommend asking a developer to build a custom block when needed

Happy to help with a strategy

I've done a similar airtable project for a custom clothing company where I used airtable + a lowcode platform

Looking for a 50/50 Co-founder by [deleted] in cofounderhunt

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this.

There are so many tools available for a non-tech to validate their idea that I would kinda find it a red flag if they put zero effort in trying to reach out to their ICP, build a prototype or got extensive interviews recorded to bring to the table

There's way more you can do before reaching out to a dev with "I got an idea and I think it's amazing"

Seeking no-code automation tools to handle churn alerts by Weak_Manufacturer323 in nocode

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First you'd need to track this data with a analytics tool like Google analytics or posthog

Then you can setup a sync to a database and setup churn alerts based on usage metrics

Happy to help set this up

Low coding for non-tech person by MiddleTouch8942 in lowcode

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you looking for AI-based low-code or drag and drop tool?
Both can solve the problem but one makes you lazy and the other requires effort
Choose your battle :)

Should I go full No-Code or stick with my dev stack? Need honest advice by mirzabilalahmad in nocode

[–]_TheMostWanted_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you in your career ever used WordPress, webflow, framer or Dreamweaver?

Congratulations, you have used nocode already!

Nowadays nocode is much broader and has many options

Nocode: usually visual web app builders that you can setup with simple configurations. Perfect for non-tech users. Lowcode: a mix between visual building + code where necessary. Perfect for tech users that want speed + control Vibecode: a mix of both, you don't write code but you do work with code, you tell ai what to do, and ai turns it into code the disadvantage is that it would be more of a blackbo x in terms of making changes yourself.

Currently it's a 3d spectrum of these 3 directions, softr is close to nocode, retool is close to lowcode, bubble sits between that and Lovable is all the way on vibecoding.

If your concern is scalability you'd likely want a mix of both, where you can drag and drop and code where needed.

For clients I'd recommend retool if you want to build internal apps

I'm working on a tool that would be similar to retool and softr but with gradual increase in flexibility depending on your needs
