Share your product here to get support, feedback, users (w/c 1st of June)

@lluis_m_ventura Hello Lluís, I like the idea behind this. But would you share some clarification? Am I going to share and manage links to whatever I want easy access to? Or is this a deep integration into the tools and gets actual data that I need onto a page? Thank you

Hi @sumitdatta! The idea behind TinyPods is to act as a container for all the information related with an idea or topic, with links, notes that you can take on TinyPods, etc... When writing an email or during a meeting (or when you needed) or when writing some docs, tinyPods will suggest you related content based on those pods and integrations to help you be in context. So I guess the answer lies just in between!

@lluis_m_ventura I guess I will have to wait to see what it actually is. The current description does not give me clarity about how the product actually would work. Let's hope to see it soon!

@sumitdatta please subscribe to our page and I will surely keep you updated! Happy to see you as beta tester!

@lluis_m_ventura TinyPods seems like a nice concept. Please post once website is launched. please consider listing TinyPods on https://www.explorebit.io/ (a platform for startups and investors)

@kush_apoorva This would seem to be a nice way to approach, I guess you are taking PM and BP documentation together. When it comes to speed, I feel Clubhouse is ruling at this moment. Their app is lightning fast. I switched to it for my own needs.

@sumitdatta Clubhouse is great indeed. It's also a JIRA replacement - task management / bug tracking. We are targeting the Product Planning and Feature Prioritisation space. A bit like ProductBoard, Canny etc. So yes, PM and BP documentation is pretty central to us. Clubhouse's speed really comes from dynamic bindings. Everything happens on the client side first - you see the changes instantly - and they update the server behind the scenes. LightCat is built on the exact same principles. That's why it feels fast.

@kush_apoorva The term for what you explained is "Optimistic updates in UI" https://uxplanet.org/optimistic-... I understand what you are aiming for with the product, thanks for the clarification.

@staneja88 Could see myself using this. Growth hacking inspiration is a must of IndieHackers and entrepreneurs in general

@staneja88 Hey Shruti, this is a very useful product. Since this is content heavy I want to ask how is the content management working out? Are you happy with existing tools? My product is aimed very specifically at products where content is rich data. Thus I am curious about your workflow and tools.

@staneja88 I really like this. I'm torn tough about the length of the articles. I think, to me, it would be more interesting to have in-depth dissections of each brand story. Almost like an investigative journalism type story. With the highs and lows & struggles of each brand. All the twists and turns and "near death" experiences these companies had to go through until they became what they are today. That or a really quick overview. Almost like a bullet-point-list-profile-thing. To me the articles are too long to be just a quick, get the facts, kinda read. But too short to really learn all the interesting details. But maybe that's what you want. Just my quick opinion. Oh - and carousel posts on Instagram would probably work well to "lure" people in too. But I guess it all comes down to how much time you want to spend with his. :)

@christoph_haase1 Thank you for the detailed feedback! I see where you're coming from, right now articles are an in between length. I want to communicate the stories as a narrative (with emotions, thought processes of why the brands did what they did, the external forces that influenced key decisions which then became the turning point). I can definitely add a little more structure to it. And yes, carousals sounds like a great idea. The interesting facts and an overview of the timeline can be added in the carousal for Instagram posts - which then "lure" the people in to the website to read the complete story. Appreciate the feedback :)

@sumitdatta I haven't explored any content management tools yet. Since I started it just over a month ago, everything is pretty manual. I, alone, do the research and writing along with creating the graphics for social media which I then use later.com app to schedule across various social media.

@amaraangelini Hello Amara, I am personally interested in software driven democracy and the tooling around this. This is a hard topic that is needed, yet will take time to settle in. I glanced through your site, looks good, neat and documentation heavy. This is a great start but IMHO you need to target groups that have less bureaucracy when it comes to elections. Universities are perhaps a great start. Managements of public service companies where board members are elected. That would bring the barrier to entry to an easier level and would increase adoption. Also, you get to experiment with the user interaction. This is a needed tool but not clearly an urgency to the concerned people. So you will have to do some thought-leadership marketing. Everything from blogs to a podcast on why transparent and all-hands elections are important, why your app can help more voters have access to elections. But all this is not going to be useful if VOTEism is limited to the 2020 USA Presidential Election. Perhaps that is way to get better results. I am not a citizen there so I do not know how and why. But I do know that software driven democratic machinery is going to be big in the next years to come.

@sumitdatta, brilliant points. We started VOTEism as a secure and private political opinion poll app. But we want to seed the discussion to something bigger - like the software driven democracy you mentioned. There's nothing to limit VOTEism to the 2020 USA Presidential Election. We have the backend flexible enough to adapt it to a complex democracy like India (our team includes brilliant data scientists from India). We would like to involve universities and academicians and are currently in talks with a group at an ivy league. Any pointers in this direction would be helpful. You can reach me at voteism/at/protonmail.com. Thanks again for your reply. It's good to see people interested in this direction. Imagine if we could vote for our leaders every day instead of once in 4/5 years!!!

@amaraangelini a product much needed under current situations. installing the android version. please consider listing VOTEism on https://www.explorebit.io/ (a platform for startups and investors)

@amaraangelini Hey, I am surely interested and will shoot an email. Would love to see this lead the way for software driven democracy.

@amaraangelini Really good idea. I have been thinking of taking something like this a step further and even use something like this for wider voting. However, Tom Scotts videos, make one think about other aspects than just the technical implications of making a fully transparent voting system. He has two videos: and the most recent one: Very interesting to check them out.

@fletcherist Interesting!

@fletcherist I am not a musician but I like the idea! Is there a way to record what I am making?

@fletcherist Nice idea!

@charles_eugene_loubao technically it's very easy to implement this, all midi events from collaborators goes to server, where they can be recorded and then rendered to wav, for example. Now I'm focusing on extending instruments library, adding loops etc to make a better sound, right after that i'll gonna implement recording :)

@tomash_sugint thanks! very appreciated) i do it as open-source project, so i need somehow to make it popular on Github to find collaborators and make the best product on the market https://github.com/fletcherist/j...

@sandra_ionescu Hey Sandra, nice product. Would it crawl an entire domain if you just start at domain root? Do do you have to specify all product pages for example?

@sumitdatta No. We can crawl an entire category of products and an entire domain root!

@yves_hoppe I would be interested in beta testing.

@yves_hoppe Great idea! For quick feature feedback, it appears like your landing page dashboard could be a bit dizzying if you see it every time you use the app so maybe less colours/graphs? Just an idea. But overall, I have to say great idea and even better implementation! The Demo-like images on your landing page help illustrate your idea very well! You've probably already considered this, but it would helpful to have timers/notifications to keep track on all your tasks. The only thing I'm slightly concerned is that your name by itself doesn't really communicate what your platform does, which may make it hard for early users to recall what 'Empoche' was for. Anyways, keep up the great work!

@oliver_carmont awesome, Thank you so much for your feedback! Totally agree with the dashboard and chart colors, but having a hard time coming up with a nice solution, as there are so many application categories. And the colors try to transport the message how "productive" the category is (e.g. business blue, gaming / netflix red and so on). By the way you can customize the colors in the settings. More visible timers would be great, didn't think on it, but you are right it's obvious. Currently trying to figure out were to place them in the interface without even more clutter. Maybe in a tray icon / dropdown. For the name, I agree with you "Empoche" is not communicating what it does. But honestly it's not even to easy to describe what it the app does in one sentence (E.g. time tracking, not only of tasks but also PC apps, task management, team support etc.). But maybe it's just me as non-native speaker ;)

@andrewc3 Hey Andrew, I like your product's idea. Unfortunately I'm a mac user so I can't try it out. It seems like this is a crowded market however, I've seen a number of similar things floating around. How would you differentiate yourself besides just keeping a log of how much time each app is open?

@dgorski Hi David, Thanks for your comment! While there are many automatic time tracking apps around, most send your digital activities directly to their servers. This isn't ideal for those who value privacy. MetaMe fixes this by saving your digital activities to a local database on your computer. In addition, many time tracking apps are designed for timesheeting or employee surveillance and monitoring. This doesn't exactly spark joy and excitement. I built MetaMe to be fun and easy to use for everyone, kind of like a fitbit for monitoring and improving their productivity.

@nocodery @gonelf Love the design. You should check out https://www.julian.com/guide/gro... - I think your landing page already checks most of the boxes, but I think this is great resource to have.

@nocodery @onmydeckmusic Thanks for the feedback

@nocodery @dijkstrah_ thanks will check.

@nocodery @gonelf first time on the website! looks great, some pop-ups are slightly not in line with the branding, but overall very well done and clear customer journey

@nocodery @gaialiciabalossi Thanks for the feedback.

@denise_wong1 Hi Denise, I agree that traditional education doesn't teach important life skills. However it wasn't clear what life skills you are referring to through your website. Reflecting on my own education experience, I wish I learnt more about social intelligence, philosophy, and learning itself earlier.

@denise_wong1 Hey Denise, I have to agree with Andrew. I like the concept a lot and think it could be valuable if executed properly, but I didn't really understand what exactly it is that your are teaching on your platform.

@dgorski thank you amazing, i'll try and nail the pitch
