... small change has made my AI coding sessions much easier to control. Before asking the agent to implement a non-trivial feature, I now ask it to write a short implementation plan first. Not a huge specification. Just: What files it expects to change What existing code it plans

... Something I've watched break plan after plan

... When launching a product, offering a free plan feels like the obvious choice. More users, more feedback, lower friction. But at the same time, charging from day one gives you a completely different signal. People who pay often use the product differently, give different feedback, and help you understand what they truly value. The challenge is that both approaches seem to make sense. A free plan

... everyone We re launching SearchSpot on Product Hunt tomorrow . SearchSpot is an AI travel concierge that helps turn messy travel research into ranked, explainable, bookable plans. The reason we built it is simple: planning

... conventions, the workflows, or the way things have always been done. What we noticed instead was something that practitioners had normalized: buyers are routinely asked to make major financial decisions based on a document they cannot read. A floor plan contains everything a buyer needs to know about a space. The dimensions, the flow, the relationships between rooms, the light, the proportion. The trained professional reads all of that instantly. The buyer reads room labels and tries to count ... ... boxes. The result is a structural sales problem that the residential development and real estate industries have been working around for decades rather than solving. Delayed decisions. Price negotiations driven by uncertainty rather than dissatisfaction. Lost sales to competitors

... projects. The honest part: I have a diary I call my "Idea Bank." Every idea that hits me during a morning run, in the shower, mid-read goes straight into it. I elaborate it. I refine it. I plan it. And for years nothing shipped. I spent months planning

... Hemanth, co-founder of  VirtualSpaces . We are two engineers who built something for an industry we did not come from, because the problem was real and the existing tools were genuinely inadequate. The problem: converting a 2D floor plan into something a non-specialist can actually understand has always required expensive, slow, specialist help. Render studios. CAD operators. Weeks of turnaround. For large developers, a manageable line item. For small interior design firms, individual architects, and real estate agencies ... ... often just not done. What we built: AI that reads a raw image of a floor plan

... actual insight, and it's bigger than it looks: making the notification say why it's waiting is what turns a ping into a triage. "Done" makes you tab back to find out what "done" means. "Needs approval vs finished vs

... looking at the residential property market, we kept running into the same thing: enormous amounts of structured data, essentially zero visual intelligence sitting on top of it. Property data platforms, think Cotality (formerly CoreLogic), ATTOM, Black Knight, hold floor plans for millions of properties. Actual architectural 2D floor plans

... obsessed with Pricing, and just started testing a new experiment for my startup, @Pretty Prompt : Remove the monthly tier; offer only Free or Yearly (basically no monthly plan available). We decided to do this after doing some simple maths and seeing that 42% of users today choose annual vs

... Most people don t fail at productivity because they re lazy. They fail because their planning system is too complicated. If organizing your day feels like managing a second job, the system is the problem not you. Why This Matters Complex productivity systems create mental friction. Too many categories. Too many apps. Too many steps. The result? People stop planning

... built VirtualSpaces because we were tired of watching good ideas stall at the floor plan. We are engineers, not designers. But even we could see the leak. A designer shares 2D floor plans

... Most real estate, architecture, and design workflows still revolve around a single artifact: the 2D floor plan. It s dense, technical, and unforgiving and yet it s the only window into a space for most buyers, tenants, and even internal stakeholders.  VirtualSpaces  exists because we believe that s no longer good enough. VirtualSpaces is an AI-native engine that takes raw 2D floor plans

... Product Hunt, One sentence in residential design causes more rework, cost, and strained client relationships than almost any other: " This isn't what I imagined. " Clients sign off on 2D floor plans they cannot actually read. Not because they lack taste or intelligence, but because translating a flat blueprint into a felt, three-dimensional space is a trained skill most people simply do not have. The industry has been patching this gap for decades with verbal descriptions, mood boards ... ... three weeks to deliver. We built two tools at  VirtualSpaces  to close this gap at the source, specifically for interior designers, architects, and residential real estate teams. What We Built Foursite  converts 2D floor plans

... Product Hunt, I have been working closely with teams who design and sell homes for a while. The same issue keeps showing up: buyers cannot translate 2D floor plans into how a home will actually feel. They squint at drawings, nod politely, then walk the finished unit and say: This feels smaller than I imagined. That is the gap we are trying to close with Foursite , built by the team at VirtualSpaces . Foursite takes the documents everyone already ... ... floor plans

... point and I'll execute all day. But figuring out what to prioritise, how to break a big goal into small ones, where to actually begin? That's where I'd spiral. I'd spend hours building the perfect plan. Then one unexpected change. A meeting moves, a deadline shifts, life happens. And the whole thing collapses. I thought that was a me problem, but it turns out, most of the people I have talked to share a similar story ... ... built Via. You don't have to stick to your plan

... would have a go at 'self-promoting' Akievo and tell you a little bit behind the product and where it came from. I don't think it can be argued with that everybody has a goal. Whether that's planning a wedding, buying your first home, starting a business, launching a podcast or anything else you can imagine. But, in order to achieve these huge goals, people have to spend time planning

... engineers who had no business caring this much about floor plans. Yet here we are. When we first explored AI for real estate, everyone told us the same thing. Start with photos. Run AI virtual staging . Make the images pop. It sounded reasonable. It also felt wrong. Photos are the last mile. Blueprints are the source. Every 2D floor plan

... makers. We re tech founders who saw a massive gap in interior design tools. Designers spend days turning 2D floor plans into 3D. We built Foursite to fix that. Upload blueprints or 2D floor plans

When your plan is ready, hit Build . The entire board every feature, every connection, every file reference gets sent to AI as a structured prompt. It reads the plan

... start in interiors. We started in code. APIs, infra, and the usual SaaS buzzwords. But a pattern kept showing up in real estate decks. So many screenshots were just 2D floor plans. Or rough Blueprints. These were meant only for back office. Yet every real decision seemed to start there. We asked a simple question. What if any team could convert floor plan

... built Foursite because we were tired of watching great residential design get stuck inside flat files. The story always started the same way. A homeowner sends over Blueprints or 2D floor plans. Designers redraw them. Another tool turns those floor plans

... Last month, I did something that felt slightly insane. I took our product description, fed it into ChatGPT, and asked it to build a competitor. Not a parody. A real competitor
