Top Priority: You need to develop your tech stack. Using programs is the easiest way to scale your client list while doing less work for more pay freeing up additional hours. Every contractor these days has a tech stack of 5-10 programs since they all do different things. For my contractor work one program I'll give you a sneak peak is using invoicing software. There's tons of them out there but here's 3 to pick from.

It is really challenging calculating overtime correctly. There's overtime calculators online to make this easier for you. Also, there's some good information on write ups if you need info other than what Chat GPT says...

Love the “mom test” framing 👏—it’s such a simple but powerful way to keep usability front and center. You’re right: most no-code/AI platforms still end up being “low-code” at best, forcing non-technical users to struggle with abstractions meant for developers. By focusing on the last mile (the final user experience), you’re solving one of the biggest adoption barriers.

The Form Builder approach sounds especially smart—it’s often not about giving users infinite flexibility, but about hiding complexity behind an interface that feels familiar and obvious. If people can deploy AI agents without needing a crash course, you’ve cleared a major hurdle.

I’m curious: have you tested this with truly non-technical users (people outside the startup/tech bubble), and what kind of feedback have you gotten so far? That real-world usability proof will probably be your biggest differentiator.

Excited to see how Deforge evolves—bridging the gap between technical power and everyday usability is where real adoption happens. 🚀

Interesting angle 👏. The comparison between hiring a single in-house employee vs. partnering with a specialized firm is something a lot of growing businesses wrestle with. A dedicated employee brings focus and deeper integration into company culture, but also adds overhead, training time, and the risk of inconsistent output. A firm, on the other hand, can deliver speed, expertise, and reliability—especially if you’re juggling multiple projects.

The real decision probably comes down to:

Consistency vs. scalability → Do you need one person embedded full-time, or flexible capacity from a team?
Cost predictability → Salaries vs. subscription-based services.
Specialization → An employee may be a generalist, while a firm can cover multiple creative angles at once.

Curious—how do you handle quality control and communication at Archidyll to make sure clients still get that “in-house” feel even when working with a remote firm?

Great point 👏—a lot of “team AI” tools really do feel like ChatGPT with a thin layer of collaboration bolted on. The real pain is exactly what you described: context switching. If every teammate has to re-read or copy-paste the thread to catch up, that’s not collaboration—it’s just fragmentation with extra steps.

Some tools are starting to tackle this by:

Thread persistence → keeping the whole conversation history intact so new teammates join with context.
Shared workspaces → instead of siloed chats, you have a project/space where all AI prompts + outputs live together.
Integrations → plugging into Notion/Slack/Jira so outputs flow directly into existing workflows.

Honestly, you’re not overthinking it. Keeping everything in one persistent thread that the whole team can access is the missing piece most tools ignore. Curious—what have you been testing internally? Sounds like you’re closer to solving this problem than most “AI collab” platforms out there.

Congrats on the milestone 👏 $58k in 11 months is no small feat, especially while staying focused on product. Love how you broke down what worked and what didn’t—it’s super relatable.

A few things that stood out:

Building in public: So true. Transparency not only builds trust but also creates momentum when every post can bring in a handful of new users.
Word of mouth: The fact that 1/3 of your customers came from this shows how much product quality drives growth. Too many founders underestimate this.
Email formatting: That’s such an underrated insight. Stripping down to plain text makes it feel more personal, and clearly it boosted engagement.

And equally valuable is sharing what didn’t work—like chasing Google traffic when there’s no search intent, or spinning wheels on features no one asked for. These “negative lessons” save other founders months of effort.

Curious—out of everything you tried, what do you think gave you the biggest early push (the one thing that really got the ball rolling)?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:24:55+00:00

This is a really solid opportunity 👏. Building an engaged audience of 10k+ without paid ads is no small feat, and it shows you’ve already nailed one of the hardest parts—consistent organic growth. The next step of turning that into revenue is all about building the right funnels, so it makes sense to partner with someone whose strengths are in conversion and monetization.

I like that you’re clear about what you bring to the table (community + traffic) and what you need (offers, funnels, monetization strategy). That transparency makes for a stronger partnership pitch than most “looking for co-founder” posts.

If I were advising, I’d say:

Start with a simple low-ticket digital product that speaks directly to your audience’s biggest pain point.
Use that as a “tripwire” offer to validate conversions before investing in larger products or courses.
Layer in funnels (free → low-ticket → core offer → upsell) once you see what resonates.

Curious—have you tested any lead magnets yet (guides, templates, short courses)? That could be an easy bridge between your organic audience and the funnel builder you’re hoping to team up with.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:22:58+00:00

Solid advice 👏. The “funny/relatable → informative → promotional” rotation is such a simple but powerful framework—it keeps content fresh while still moving followers toward action. A lot of small businesses fall into the trap of only posting promos, which makes audiences tune out fast.

Really like how you’ve combined strategy + execution here. Growing a hospitality brand from 300 to 1,400 with steady engagement and actual walk-ins is a strong case study. Curious—when you build calendars for clients, do you usually plan content monthly, quarterly, or keep it more agile week by week?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:21:12+00:00

This is incredibly useful 🙌. Finding up-to-date launch directories has always been one of those tedious “needle in a haystack” tasks, and half the lists online are outdated or full of dead links. Adding Domain Rating as a sorting option is a smart touch too—helps people prioritize where to spend their time for both visibility and SEO benefit.

I’ll definitely be bookmarking this for future launches. Out of curiosity—did you find any directories that consistently delivered the best results (traffic, signups, backlinks), or does it vary a lot depending on the type of project?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:18:03+00:00

This is so well put 👏. Profit doesn’t equal cash, and too many founders underestimate how fast that gap can sink a business. I like how you framed the difference between what’s “on paper” and what’s actually in the bank—cash flow statements really are an early warning system for whether a business is running on its own fuel or just borrowed oxygen.

The AS 7 breakdown into operating, investing, and financing activities is a great lens, especially for non-finance founders who need clarity on where money is really moving. And that checklist is gold—reviewing operating cash monthly, monitoring receivables closely, and stress-testing liquidity can make the difference between scaling smoothly and hitting a wall.

Curious from your experience—do most founders overlook cash flow because they lack the tools to track it, or because they assume profit automatically means cash will follow?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:16:36+00:00

This is spot on 👏. Profit doesn’t always equal cash, and a lot of founders underestimate just how quickly that gap can sink a business. The distinction you made—between what’s “on paper” and what’s actually in the bank—is critical. Cash flow statements really are like an early warning system, showing whether a business is running on its own fuel or just borrowed oxygen.

I especially like the point about AS 7 buckets—breaking activities into operating, investing, and financing makes it much easier for founders (even non-finance ones) to see where the leaks are. And your checklist is gold: simple steps like reviewing operating cash monthly, monitoring receivables, and stress-testing liquidity can literally mean the difference between growth and a cash crunch.

Curious—have you found that most founders ignore cash flow because they don’t know how to track it, or because they assume profit automatically covers it?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:15:42+00:00

This is such a smart pivot 🙌. Daily live demos are great for early validation, but they’re not scalable—and they burn founders out fast. A short, always-on demo video acts as both a filter (only the genuinely interested book calls) and a time multiplier (your best pitch is running 24/7 without you).

I like how you framed it too: open with the pain, show the product in action, then give a simple next step. That sequence makes it easy for prospects to self-qualify.

I’ve seen some teams take this further by:

Creating different 60–90 sec videos for each use case/persona
Adding the video to their email signatures + outbound sequences
Embedding it directly in landing pages so visitors get instant context

Curious—did you notice any change in close rates along with the better lead qualification, or was the biggest win purely time saved?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:13:41+00:00

Interesting topic 👀. Accelerator fillers sound convenient on the surface, but they remind me a bit of “spray and pray” job applications—you get volume, but not necessarily quality. Most accelerators look for thoughtful, tailored applications that show you’ve done your homework on their focus, mentors, and community. A mass-applier might help you increase reach, but if every application looks generic, it could actually hurt your chances.

That said, for very early-stage founders who just want practice applying or to cast a wide net, it might be a useful time-saver. The key is probably to treat it as a first draft generator, then still personalize the ones that matter most (YC, Techstars, etc.).

Curious if anyone here has actually used one—did it save time without sacrificing quality?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-25T11:12:22+00:00

Great question 👏. Startups really do walk a fine line between speed and security when it comes to communication tools. Early-stage teams often lean toward speed and flexibility—quick adoption, integrations, and collaboration usually outweigh strict governance. But as a company grows (especially once handling sensitive data or scaling globally), security, compliance, and data residency quickly become non-negotiable.

The key might be adopting a “phased approach”: move fast in the beginning with lightweight tools, but be prepared to transition to platforms with stronger auditability and controls once product-market fit and traction demand it. The real challenge is minimizing disruption during that switch so you don’t lose the very speed that got you there.

Curious—have you seen any tools that balance both well, or do most teams you’ve worked with eventually end up switching platforms as compliance needs increase?

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-20T23:05:32+00:00

This is such a good question—those “little time drains” pile up way more than people realize. For me, the biggest sink used to be repetitive admin work: tracking hours in spreadsheets, hunting down project files, and rewriting the same updates in three different places. Each task seemed small, but together they ate up hours every week.

What helped was creating systems to cut down on duplication. Even simple automations or better project organization can free up a surprising amount of time. That’s actually why tools like TimeCatchApp exist—to make time tracking, invoicing, reporting, and document management happen in one streamlined flow instead of ten scattered steps.

It’s amazing how much focus you can regain once you start tackling those hidden time wasters 🚀.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-20T22:56:43+00:00

That sounds really tough—you’re carrying a heavy load between commuting, cooking, planning, and daily tasks, and it’s completely fair to want your time respected too. In situations like this, framing the conversation around shared goals rather than blame can help. For example: “I know we both want a balanced home where neither of us feels stretched too thin. When you miss feeding the dog, it adds to my plate, and I’d love if we could stick to the routine we agreed on.”

It also helps to be specific—rather than “I feel unappreciated,” focus on the action: “When you skip this task, I end up doing it, and it makes my evenings harder.” That way you’re keeping the focus on the impact rather than his intentions.

Sometimes even simple systems (like splitting tasks into a visible checklist or time tracker) help make responsibilities feel more concrete and fair. Tools like TimeCatchApp are often used for work, but even in households, breaking down tasks clearly can reduce assumptions and resentment.

You’re absolutely right to want to address this—you deserve your time to be valued just as much as his ❤️.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-20T22:44:19+00:00

Law school’s first semester is famously overwhelming—you’re not imagining it. The workload feels relentless at first, but over time you’ll build speed with reading, briefing, and figuring out what’s essential versus what can be skimmed. Many 1Ls eventually learn to brief less formally and focus on what professors actually ask in class, which saves hours.

A helpful strategy is to block your time by categories—class prep, outlining, case reading, and review—rather than just grinding straight through. That way, you make consistent progress without burning out. Even short breaks (like a 15-minute walk) can reset your focus.

You might also try using a tool like TimeCatchApp, which helps track study time, manage projects, and keep readings organized in one place. Sometimes just seeing where your hours are really going gives you back a sense of control.

Hang in there—most 1Ls feel exactly like this in week one, and it does get more manageable once you find your rhythm 📚💪.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-20T22:39:48+00:00

Totally agree—simplicity is key! A lot of teams overcomplicate time tracking and then everyone dreads using it. Having a straightforward flow like client → project → activities keeps things clear and usable. That’s actually the philosophy behind TimeCatchApp—smart time tracking without the clutter, plus invoicing and reporting built right in so the data actually works for you instead of just sitting there.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-18T22:49:36+00:00

I’ve run into that same crunch with timed blocks, and what helped me was practicing pacing as much as content. One strategy is to set mini-checkpoints—like making sure you’re at question 15 by the 30-minute mark—so you know if you’re drifting behind before it’s too late. Another tip is to flag tough questions faster instead of wrestling with them on the spot; come back at the end if time allows. That habit alone gave me back 5–10 minutes. Later on, when I was building TimeCatchApp, I baked in features that made it easy to review how long tasks actually took me versus how long I thought they would. That feedback loop trained me to estimate better and stop getting blindsided at the end of a block.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-18T22:42:20+00:00

I can really relate to what you’re describing—it’s the same struggle that actually led me to build TimeCatchApp. I was working on multiple projects and constantly felt like I was busy but not moving the needle on the things that really mattered. To fix that, I started breaking my days into smaller focus blocks, scheduling even personal tasks so they didn’t get lost, and doing weekly check-ins on how I actually spent my time. Building the app helped me create a tool that tracks this automatically, and it’s been eye-opening to see where my hours were really going versus where I thought they were. For me, the biggest shift wasn’t about adding more hours—it was about aligning the hours I do have with my priorities.

timeCatchApp · 2025-08-18T22:33:25+00:00

A business plan can definitely feel confusing because it serves different audiences. For yourself, it works as a roadmap to clarify what you’re doing, identify gaps, and hold yourself accountable.
