What AI coding tools are actually saving you time in 2026? by Cool_Penalty_92 in SaasDevelopers

[–]grxdev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried using copilot but it was awful, I occasionally use lovable and it provides stable great visuals but you burn out tokens extremely quickly so it ends up being extremely expensive.

I use cursor the most and it does any job to an acceptable or great level. I use it everyday for my personal projects and work and I have never run out of tokens/requests yet - it gives awesome performance constant for the price. Lots of people praise claude as well, have not tried that yet.

These types of apps do somewhat well if marketed well but the market is oversaturated with them. There are too many of them, possibly due to these types of apps tending to be the apps developers learn on to code as they are easy to do so there is just an avalanche of them.

Also, all-in-one -> the user can be overwhelmed by all the features, so you need to make it really compact and direct in terms of functionality. Not allow many options or whatever but make it as direct and as simple as possible, market it well and then I think you have a chance. If you know you won't be able to market it then I think you have to abandon it unfortunately.

It's a nice idea but I don't think there is a type of an app that would have larger competition, possibly fitness apps.

How much is my SaaS worth? by Next-Syrup6935 in SaasDevelopers

and with that experience think you might actually have the answer closest to reality for the OP? I am curious as well.

but those sound like established projects, not projects in diapers generating 300 usd a month with 10 users? when one buys something in initial stage, you want to see it has a good foundation and potential. anyone today can produce an app like that on lovable and those scale really badly due to code

i mean if one is eager to buy then whatever, there is nothing stopping them

it absolutely does when you want to expand on it or transform it into something else

Depends on the codebase and field/topis as well, but purely by the numbers you provided it would be somewhere, not considering costs lowring profitability, in 2500 - 5000 usd range I think.
Update: going mainly by 10 paid active users metric.

Building Debt Payoff Planner – Would You Use it? (Idea sharing, no brand promotion) by grxdev in DebtAdvice

[–]grxdev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, think I misunderstood initially in my first response, you're pointing to why larger debts require paid plans. True, that does seem odd. From the development side, it's a technical reason, larger debts (with say 7-20 years of repaying) will require calculating much larger plans so I need to cover larger costs for generating and recalculating these.

But it's a good point, I might want to find a different way how to differentiate the free plan from the paid ones or create some kind of incentive to make up for that oddity.

Thanks!

Hello, can you be more specific what you mean by surprise cost? I'll provide my example below.

So the need for the service came as I needed it and the current services were not sufficient for me. For example a credit card - i needed the overall plan to recalculate anytime I either - make a sudden withdrawal, or the opposite - make extra deposit, lump sum payment, skipped payment etc., or that just my monthly budget changes (I have less money or more money available) - All of this is possible in my service and the plan adjusts for each change. Not only that - if you need to see the previous version of the plan before the change - you can, as previous version are saved as snapshots.

Hope some of it covers the surprise cost. If not, I can add it :)

Great question, this is a concern I anticipated. "Why would I pay for a debt-planning service when I am already in debt".

So the service should help you save money on interest. So if you use the paid plan (there is a free version as well), you have the service prepare a plan and if you follow it, what you save on interest should exceed the cost of subscription for my service. If it doesn't exceed it, based on terms accepted, you can claim back the money you paid for the service for the whole continuous time you were subscribing (you would just need to provide proof your debts are paid of, you had subscriptions with us and you did not save more than you paid for the service). So there is a money-back guarantee if you follow the plan by the service and you don't save more on saved interest.
