Founder, Paced | End the scroll trance

About

I’m a top-producing Realtor in Saskatoon who decided to build a solution for the 'scroll trance' I saw everyone (including myself) stuck in. With no coding background, I leveraged Google's Gemini as my strategic co-founder to build Paced. My goal is to replace 'digital jailers' with a movement-based economy that gives users their agency back. I’m here to help high-achievers leave a legacy, not just a high score.

How do you break the "scroll trance" when willpower isn't enough?

Hi everyone! I m Rhonda, a Realtor from Saskatoon. I m definitely not your typical tech founder I m 50 years old and I built my first app because I was tired of my phone "winning" over and over again.

We ve all been there: you check your phone for "one second" and suddenly an hour is gone. I call it the "scroll trance". Most blockers I tried felt like an "adult time-out" they were frustrating and made me feel like I was being punished. I don't want to be punished; I love my phone! I just want to stay in control of my time.

What I learned launching my solo SaaS on PH last week

Hey PH.

Launched Briefance here last week. Solo founder, Istanbul, no team, no investors. Wanted to share what actually happened instead of the usual "thank you so much" post.

Quick context: Briefance turns chaotic client emails into structured briefs. Freelancer target. Paste the mess, get scope, timeline, budget, and follow up questions in ten seconds. Free tier has 3 briefs, no card needed.

Here's what the launch week taught me.
