... spend a lot of time reading peoples profiles for work, and at some point i started keeping a rough tally of which listed skills i could actually picture the person using tomorrow. the split was not where i expected it. the things that held up were almost never the named tools. they were phrasings like "took a vague problem and turned it into a spec someone else could build from" or "owned the incident nobody wanted to own." the things ...

... left with no app at all. So every copy has to reach the same answer independently oldest stays. I wrote the test, then broke the rule on purpose to check the test would notice. It reported zero survivors. The tally: forty lines of guard, nine corrections to get right, four of them mine and introduced while fixing the previous one. Free, universal, macOS 15.6+: https://netfox.app What's the most misleading bug report you've ever written for yourself ...

... invoice to a client. The learning curve is insane. Free tools are a trap full of ads, broken PDF exports, and zero GST compliance. I've seen freelancers send invoices with wrong CGST/SGST splits and not even know it. Tally requires installation + training in 2026, nobody should need a 3-day course to generate a PDF. Most tools require signup before you can even try why? Just let me make one invoice first. So I built GSTMaker. One goal: create ...

... spent the last few weeks building Tally free personal finance calculators (budget split, debt payoff, emergency fund, and a few more) with the actual math shown instead of hidden behind an email wall or a paywall. While building it I kept running into the same pattern: sites that market themselves as "free calculators" usually aren't you get a teaser number, then a signup form, or the formula is a black box. Curious what's missing ...

... Dominic, a solo developer. Two months ago I launched Tally Assistant an AI-native bookkeeping tool born out of pure frustration. Here's the problem I was living: every month I'd download CSVs from PayPal, Stripe, Wise, and my bank each in a completely different format. Different date orders. Different delimiters. Different decimal separators. I'd spend 2-3 hours manually reformatting everything into a single spreadsheet, categorizing transactions one by one, converting currencies by Googling exchange rates ...

... from Stephanie Tang(@stephanie_t0317): Figma for covers, simple graphics, and landing page mockups. Canva for quickly polishing visuals without spending too much time on design. Notion for drafting and organizing content before turning it into a final guide. Tally or Google Forms for collecting early feedback.

Canva Notion and Gumroad covered most needs without extra complexity. Have ...

... every 20th of the month. CA available once a year. Government portals English, complex, terrifying. 156 laws to follow. Zero guidance in their language. Here is what I realised. The problem is not that these tools do not exist. Tally exists. ClearTax exists. Khatabook exists. Zoho exists. The problem is that every single one of them requires the business owner to leave WhatsApp, learn new software, read English, and trust a system they do not understand. Nobody is meeting them ...

... rewrite it. It didn't ask. It just assumed. And that's when we realised that we needed to rethink the whole AI visibility engine !! Day 7: The verdict. We ended the experiment. Total tally: Features shipped: 12 Features that worked without issues: 4 New bugs introduced: 27 Hours spent fixing things Claude broke: 40 User emails explaining lost data: 73 API cost increase: 38% What we learned. Claude is incredible at writing code. It's terrible at understanding context ... ... right circumstances is exactly right. The skill now isn't prompting. It's knowing which circumstances are the right ones. Just out of curiosity, what's your threshold? When do you decide "this one, I'm doing myself" vs

... businesses at once, a software company, a care home, and until recently a cafe, and I was the one holding all of it together in my head. Not a dashboard, not a system, just memory and a running mental tally of what needed attention that day. The signal was not one big moment, it was a pattern. I kept catching the important thing late. Not missing it entirely, catching it a day or two after it actually needed me, which ... ... exactly what to do next. Right now I am inviting in the first 30 founders personally instead of opening it up to everyone. Curious how you are validating that people would actually pay to have less on their plate, versus

... smartphone app could be cool. Comment from Amine Bensousi(@amine_bensousi): Solid list, @fmerian ! @Screen Studio and @Typefully is a must-have. For my recent remote work guide, I kept it even simpler: Notion for the roadmap and Tally for feedback. I ve found that for info-products, a low-friction stack helps the content shine. I d also add Loom it's the best way to add a personal touch to a launch! Comment from Leotrim Lota(@leotrim_lota ...

... Fellow Founders! We re Azvya, Potato & Taufan building PingPolls, because honestly, no matter how many new form builders come out they re still just form builders. The Status Quo: Even with Typeform making surveys beautiful, or Tally making them simple, the core experience hasn t changed: it's still a form (ofc shoutout to their beautifully designed forms). As founders & builders ourselves, we wanted more than just pretty surveys. We wanted something that feels natural to answer ...

... reach until they have traction or a budget. I used to think that too. But I ve been building a lightweight affiliate engine without any paid tools, using just Payhip, MailerLite, Zapier (on the free tier), and Tally. It s messy but surprisingly effective.

... situations that requite human connection to better relate to and understand the situation, but do they really care? They cut costs, people will still use their services because some of them just don't have much of an alternative. On the other hand, AI tools can help smaller companies delegate tasks and scale at a much more rapid pace, hence forcing their way into the competition where previously it required them too many resources ... ... mundane with what will soon become mundane. And, while I won't venture into the politics of wealth distribution further deteriorating, I will just say I think there will be trade-offs that account for the rewards we tally

... happy to share what I know. Comment from Tania Bell(@taniabell): @elly_sp  there are lots of products and brands that do that. some are openly so, others are more under the radar. companies/products such as Tally, Obsedian and StoryTribe have done really well, for example. they're very different to one another - different products, different business models, different markets etc. they're all great examples tho. but the question for you would be if their experiences applies ... ... that's feedback in itself, tbh. the difficulty is that it's hard to say what the problem is: are they not your target audience? are they just too busy? are they not interested b/c they're using an alternative
