Hey PH Community !
We've been heads down building. Four new things in the works. I want to know which one matters most to you.

RASE v1.0 App Store Intelligence

Tracks how your mobile app appears in AI answers (ChatGPT, Perplexity) and in store search. If you build apps, this tells you where you're visible and where you're invisible.

We've all hit the iLoveIMG signup wall at the worst possible moment.

ihateimg.in is the alternative I built out of frustration a completely free image toolkit that never asks you to create an account, never shows you an ad, and never locks a feature behind a paywall.

What you can do:

• Crop trim your image exactly how you want

• Resize custom dimensions in pixels or percentage

• Compress reduce file size without killing quality

• Watermark add text or image watermarks in seconds

• Upscale increase resolution without heavy blur

Last week we did something stupid.

We paused all human coding. Gave Claude (Anthropic) access to our GitHub repo. Told it to build new features, fix bugs, and ship.

No human review. No guardrails. Just Claude and our codebase.

For 7 days, it ran the engineering team.

Let me start from the creator s perspective:
I personally don t have a product (apart from hiring people for creative work or offering personal consultations).

But as a creator, I constantly share content, insights, and information, value that helps me build trust (for free). Based on that perceived expertise, people eventually decide to work with me (a paid service).

Hey I'm James, a software developer from Australia with 20+ years building things professionally.

Most of my career I've been the person behind the scenes solving hard technical problems, shipping reliable software, making other people's ideas work. Unravl is the first thing I've built entirely for myself, and now I'm figuring out the part they don't teach developers: how to actually get it in front of people who might find it useful.

No funding. No growth team. No playbook. Just me, the product, and a lot of learning in public.

If you've been down this road builder trying to find an audience I'd genuinely love to hear what worked for you. And if Unravl sounds like something you'd use, even better.
