I am Nishargo, one of the builders behind Bolo which is a voice-based emotional insight tool built for people like me, like you, like all of us who sometimes just need to be heard.
I made my first chrome extension using solely Chatgpt. I wanted to see if it was really possible for a non-technical person like me. I was really proud of myself, it inspired me to want to build more! But when I tried to add more features to it, I think the code got too bloated and messy and it just blew up so I just continue to use the extension for the basic need I have to save and organize notes I make on products that are interesting to me without all the bells and whistles I would have wanted. I wasn t trying to make money on it, just something to prove I could do it, and I got to feel what it was like to launch something on Product Hunt - yay!
But I ve also seen alot of posts/comments from more technical folks around the web hating on non technical people for believing that you can go from 0-1 and that these new tools are best to speed up work for technical people who already know how to code, not for newbies who end up with something that works by copying and pasting crappy code spit out by LLMs of their choice.
So WebVisor went down about two weeks ago. If your site had more than 5,000 events, chances are the app didn t work properly. Timeouts. Broken charts. Data just missing.
That s on me.
I honestly wasn t expecting so many users to sign up so quickly, and I definitely didn t expect sites to be logging that much data right out the gate.
Within the first two weeks, we tracked over 1.5 million events. Which is amazing - but it also completely broke the system.
