I m Alican Ataseven, an independent developer and maker based in Istanbul. Like many of you here, I am driven by a simple but powerful philosophy: if a process feels repetitive, friction-heavy, or mathematically vague, there is a tool waiting to be built to fix it. Living in a city that literally bridges two continents, I ve always been fascinated by the idea of creating "bridges" in the digital world tools that connect users to the data and clarity they need to make better decisions.
The Philosophy Behind the Build
My journey into the world of indie hacking didn t start with a desire to build "the next big thing." It started with a desire to solve "the next small frustration." In the fast-paced world of digital work, we often find ourselves juggling dozens of subscriptions and struggling with the nuances of global collaboration. My work is focused on stripping away that noise and providing lean, high-utility solutions.
I m Soumyo, a fitness enthusiast and solo builder behind ActForge Workout. - Mobile App.
The idea came from a problem I faced myself most workout apps look polished but rely heavily on fixed templates or generic routines. As someone who trains regularly, I always felt the logic behind programming (splits, recovery, frequency, progression) was missing.
Hey, I'm Andreas, and I'm a software engineer from Sweden. I recently built Earleaf, an audiobook player for Android, as my first Android app. The standout feature is Page Sync: photograph a book page and it finds that spot in the audio using on-device speech recognition and OCR. Launching on Product Hunt tomorrow!
Feel free to read more on the blog or check the app out on Google Play!
Hey everyone! I'm Coen, based in the Netherlands. By day I'm a tech lawyer advising companies on software contracts and AI regulations. By night (and weekends), I'm building InvestTrack -- a privacy-first portfolio tracking platform for individual investors.
The problem I'm solving: Like many of you, I invest across multiple asset classes -- stocks, ETFs, crypto, real estate, private equity, P2P lending, pensions, and savings accounts. I was tired of juggling spreadsheets and five different platforms just to understand my full financial picture. None of them showed everything in one place.
I m Elvis. I ve got a background in computer science and systems integration, and I ve always been the kind of person who wants to know what s actually going on under the hood.
Lately I ve been building for macOS, mostly around privacy and network visibility. I wasn t really happy with what s out there, so I decided to build something that felt better.
Tools like Little Snitch are powerful, but they can get overwhelming fast. You re hit with constant prompts and technical details, and most people just end up clicking allow to move on, which kind of defeats the purpose. On the other side, LuLu is simpler but can be a bit rough, with people running into things like apps hanging or network issues.
