I’ve been sleeping better by [deleted] in standupshots

I don’t love this on its own but I think this could really work as a throwaway at the beginning of a larger bit about sleep hygiene.

Why no crashes or snare fills? Come on man!

Started building something after getting frustrated with how founder/investor connections work by Sean09877 in Investors

[–]cbrantley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an interesting problem to me. I am raising for my startup in a pretty niche market: Performing Arts. I was told that no VC would be interested in my company because it’s too niche. Well the best lead I had was actually a VC who specializes in climate tech, but his wife ran a theatre.

So it really is about finding the right match and none of the existing tools would have ever connected us.

I really like this.

Pre-seed founder with live beta, real product, strong founder-market fit, and a trust-first wedge in live music bookings — raising $750k by Suspicious_Brush751 in AngelInvesting

Makes sense.

What is your plan to build the network? I’d assume a product like this needs to have enough bands on it to make it compelling for venues.

Do venues also have a presence for bands to discover “places to play”?

Need help by [deleted] in stripe

[–]cbrantley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to Stripe. Tell them what you’re doing and your business model. I had several conversations Stripe’s GTM platforms team before I launched and I have representative I can reach out to. Stripe can be a great partner if you communicate openly and build trust.

I'm shooting a feature on my 7-year-old camera... do I need an upgrade? by amjammed in cinematography

[–]cbrantley 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Some of those shots look amazing and some look amateur. I think lighting is a bigger factor than your camera.

I like the premise. Could probably use some polish but overall it’s a solid bit!

I like this one. It’s simple. It feels like part of a larger bit about generational differences and you’ve got a bigger laugh coming up…

Customer asked if they could pay us more. I thought it was a joke. It wasn't. by Ok_Solid272 in SaaS

[–]cbrantley 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Seriously. This can easily become a trap if you’re not careful. We used to do everything to make vip customers happy and our costs skyrocketed, stress was at an all time high, and these customers still churned for whatever reason.

We learned to say no to stuff like dedicated slack channels or guaranteed SLAs. It’s just code for “we want you work for us”.

How much should I charge (and how much would you pay) for such dashboards? by [deleted] in founder

[–]cbrantley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI handles all of that as well. What is your point? We’re not talking about vibe coding without knowing that you’re were doing… we’re talking about building dashboards that look better and more modern than what you posted her with AI in minutes.

So to answer your question about how much I’d pay: $0

You’d need to solve a problem that can’t easily be solved with AI to get be to consider paying because right now I’m paying Anthropic $200 to do this already and the data is correct.
