Thanks in advance for welcoming me to the community. I should be formally launching soon, so any advice is welcome. I'm a civil engineer from Oklahoma.
GrabThat is a windows desktop launcher that allows you to associate your digital resources with natural language. So, no need to remember hot keys (although it does have a snippets feature). Also has shared database so your team (or new team members) can get stuff just by asking in a natural language prompt. Additional features include Schedules tasks (mine opens my timesheet every day at 4:00), Scripts that allow you to stack commands, Snippets as mentioned above, Telemetry that show you how you are using it, Database lets you easily manage your database if you update or move something, and the ever-popular Clipboard which gives you quick access to you history.
It is designed to stay out of your way and augment your workflow. CTRL+Space accesses it, keydown or mouse movement hides it again.
There are some other small hidden features, like removing the "" from a file path. Please check it out. Ask questions if you have any. Super Simple.
Thanks again for allowing me to introduce myself and GrabThat.

We re all builders here, which usually means at some point we looked at something clunky, slow, or frustrating and thought, there has to be a better way. Most products don t start with a grand vision; they start with irritation, curiosity, or firsthand pain.

I d love to learn more about how others here have navigated that journey:

How did you uncover the problem you decided to work on?
What signals told you this problem was worth solving?
How did you validate (if at all) whether people would actually pay for a solution?
Has your product stayed true to the original problem, or did it evolve into something different?
What surprised you the most along the way?
