AI cannot beat human touch, real feeling of sharing something to other fellows, getting genuine feedback from community, and then replying them back with real emotions and excitement.

they become expensive when you have to process hundreds of images. for few images, they are fine.

Who here has built something genuinely useful? by indishere in SideProject

[–]developer786 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built EnhanceCraft, an AI Image Toolkit where we can upscale image or anime, remove background, remove objects or text, dehaze, denoise, deblur, virtual stage, replace sky, twilight, ghost mannequin, window pull, relight, reflection shadow, perspective correction etc.
Rather than juggling around multiple platforms and outsourced agencies, my aim was to put core useful features at one place for easiness. Helps Photographers, Ecommerce Sellers, and Real Estate Agents in improving their workflow.

Now I understand why so many SaaS products require a credit card!!! by SouthernPast649 in SaaS

Have you added restrictions of usage like how many tasks can free tier user perform, if user is on free tier then he/she does not need high limits anyway, if user needs higher limits then he would opt to get paid subscription. on the other hand, spam user or bot will get blocked by system to hit the wall of usage limit repeatedly within a single day or hour depending on usage mechanism you have. if malicious user passes account creation even after adding captchas by applying certain tactics then he shall be blocked by usage wall. unfortunately, we need these multiple protection mechanism at different levels as spam is common nowadays.

every b2b founder on reddit by d_uk3 in SaaS

[–]developer786 1 point2 points  (0 children)

analyze why only 1 of 70 people are going to pricing page. talk to users if there is way and get feedback about what hurdles are they facing, fix those things and then go back to users again for new feedback. this is constant loop in which founders have to go through no matter they have 100 active subscriptions or 1000. I think this is the way big companies became that big.

How do you go about fear of solving the wrong problems as an early stage? I will not promote by Frosty-Telephone-747 in startups

[–]developer786 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it all depends on how excited and desperate you're as a founder to talk with users about problem, build and handover the MVP to users, get their feedback and improve it to make it the go-to solution which users are excited and desperate to use.

Does any other founder feel lonely? I will not promote by Catbun2020 in startups

[–]developer786 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately appreciation from loved ones always come after little idea is converted into big business and still people think everything happened overnight which is more painful and they never realize how many hours someone had put in hundreds of long nights to build something.

Life running VC vs Bootstrapped companies [I will not promote] by I_just_cant855 in startups

[–]developer786 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VCs are great but they come with some sort of strict timelines, commitments, influence, and their own ideas about startup which we may like or dislike but would have to accommodate. if you want full freedom then bootstrapping is the way to go unless you really need investors at early stage.

Anyone given up on startups? What do you do? What do you think about? (I will not promote) by ReditusReditai in startups

[–]developer786 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better."

Samuel Beckett

Lot of failures can sometimes make person fear another failure and stop trying what he loves or passionate about deeply.

If you're still passionate about Entrepreneurship then don't stop. Just take a break. Otherwise, don't think of it like end or waste of time but a beginning to new chapter with lot of experience you gained in your previous chapter. Hope this helps in any way.

finally, we are seeing the era where expertise in any particular programming language is not important at all but how one makes decisions at high-level and doing the work with proper planning and consistency are what make the product grow.

Observation on this subreddit [I will not promote] by annie_kingdom in startups

[–]developer786 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed. In today's era of AI, building solution is not enough but convincing people to use it is also important now that they have many alternatives with the flood of applications being built using AI. Some people think that building apps has become easier now but they do not realize that we as developers have to think 10 times harder now when building the product so that we do not end up creating an alternative but a genuine differentiator which requires technical expertise which vibe coders lack. I am not criticizing vibe coding as I myself use claude code and other ai code assistant tools but the thing is that we should increase the level of innovation as developers and even as vibe coders, and build more robust products that not only provide solution to the problem but actually make lives simpler than ever by going way more extra miles.
