After years on the VC side evaluating hundreds of pitch decks, I kept seeing the same problem - great companies losing deals because the story wasn't landing. So I switched sides.
I am building SVPay, a zero-fee payment platform that lets merchants keep 100% of every sale. No processing fees, no contracts, no hidden costs. Built on Solana blockchain for instant settlements with an AI-powered smart POS, QR code payments, digital receipts, and a built-in loyalty program all from a single (web based) app. Our first 100 merchants get 6 months of Pro FREE. Check it out: https://svpay.app Would love feedback from the community!
I've spent the last few months in the trenches building an email sending platform and along the way I picked up a few things that surprised me. Not about the code but about how poorly understood email deliverability is even among technical Founders who send email regularly.
Hey PH community! I'm a solo dev who built two native Mac apps to scratch my own itches. Sharing them here in case they're useful to anyone else.
TokenBar (tokenbar.site) If you use multiple AI APIs (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Mistral, etc.), you know the pain of checking 5+ provider dashboards to track your spending. TokenBar sits in your Mac menu bar and shows real-time credit balances for 20+ AI providers in one glance. The Pro version ($5 lifetime) adds spending spike alerts so you catch runaway scripts before they burn through your credits. No subscription.
I built something because I had 2 problems and couldn t find a good enough solution. Problem 1:
I code every day for work, and AI assistants make me much more productive.
But there s a tradeoff you need to actively practice and improve your coding skills or you forget.
Because let s be honest:
AI can write code faster than ever, but understanding it is still on you. Problem 2:
More and more often, I d have a quiet moment in the evening, pick up my phone and get stuck in a Shorts/Reels/whatever-your-platform loop.
Even if it s not hours, I really dislike that habit. So I started looking for quick, practical coding exercises I could do in those in-between moments. There are options, but none really fit: LeetCode great on a laptop, but not something I d replace my phone time with Mimo if you already know how to code, it feels painfully slow Other apps free trial then a subscription and still slow So I built it. Coding Drills Available on iOS!
https://apps.apple.com/lu/app/co... Soon on Android (waiting play store confirmation) In a nutshell: Short coding drills you can finish in minutes Bite-sized lessons that actually stick Multi-language: Python, SQL, JavaScript, Rust Choose your level: new, beginner, intermediate, advanced No subscription (3 challenges + 3 lessons free per day, restock with a simple ad) Give it a try and let me know what you think!

We're about to launch WriteMyPrompt a marketplace where you hire expert prompt engineers. Before we go live, I want a reality check. If you regularly use ChatGPT, Claude, or Midjourney for work and you're not getting the results you want, would you be open to paying $20 $100 to have an expert craft the perfect prompt for your use case? What would make you trust it or not?
