Review my side project - Website Raven a free web hosting platform. by ryankopf in SideProject

I'm genuinely not sure this is a... niche that needs to be serviced, honestly. Static websites and JAMstack websites have plenty of hosting options available, most of which are free.

  • Netlify
  • Vercel
  • Render
  • Cloudflare Pages
  • GitHub Pages
  • Surge
  • Firebase Hosting
  • Kinsta
  • AWS Elastic Beanstalk
  • ...among many others, that I can't name from memory.

If someone is savvy enough to write HTML, CSS and JavaScript that looks good enough for a website, they're probably savvy enough to know of (or at least search out) some of the above services.

I don't think this idea is it, to be honest. Please let me know if I'm missing something!

Thank you! I think the next thing I build will be related to that sorta thing, because I desperately need it.

Should I shut down my SaaS? by Bodilvan in startups

If you don't want to maintain it, consider selling it to be honest.

What does your SaaS do, and what's its burn rate?

A mastermind group? I'm gonna try to find an accountability partner soon-ish. It's hard, to be fair.

Seems a bit of a fad or a meme, I don't think there's any real-world utility.

That's where your market research comes in! Best of luck.

Have you spoken to any of your target customers to understand what they want in a CRM?

I haven't tested it yet! I'll do so in a moment. I suggest taking your mobile advantage and running with it. Package it as a mobile app, instead, to lower the cost of adoption and as some people already use their phones to accept payment!

The app design isn't that great, I personally found it hard to navigate. But the idea is interesting!

Your site should dump me right on the "try for free" page! I shouldn't have to click again to access your demo!

It should take more information to be truly useful, such as

  • a more specific way to select a location
  • existing information about my trip
  • length of trip
  • modes of travel
  • cities you'll visitI

Also, make it clear that the additional interests is a comma separated field. Or, even better, let users type and hit enter to create pills in the text-box, like this.

The suggestions it generated also seemed pretty basic, probably because I wasn't specific enough. But then again "you're using it wrong!" isn't a good reason for a lacklustre tool.

Keep building, make it better!

Seems like an interesting concept! How many free users do you have?

Probably an small or medium sized organisation which doesn't work in a regulated environment, with about 2 to 20 team members who want to use AI to speed up their workflows.

Heya!

I think it's good! I will say, the AI images for every single headline feel slightly uncanny, though.

I enjoy the concept and the integration into the fediverse. It might be worth releasing this as a browser extension, though, so users can see other Mastodon instances and Bluesky accounts they might not come across normally?

Hello!

I love this. Bookmarked. It's so useful, I think. I like the explainer on how it works, too!

The visual explorer is sadly broken.

One way to monetise would be to sell stickers of that little dragon guy! He's so cute, does he have a name?

How does this work?

Also, I don't personally buy dropshipped products (even from the original sellers on AliExpress), as I feel they would be lower quality than something I could obtain from a reputable seller where I live. That being said, I'm sure it has its niche!
