I'm pivoting HeyMeetAI.

Not because it failed, but because talking to users changed the direction.

We've all hit the iLoveIMG signup wall at the worst possible moment.

ihateimg.in is the alternative I built out of frustration a completely free image toolkit that never asks you to create an account, never shows you an ad, and never locks a feature behind a paywall.

What you can do:

• Crop trim your image exactly how you want

• Resize custom dimensions in pixels or percentage

• Compress reduce file size without killing quality

• Watermark add text or image watermarks in seconds

• Upscale increase resolution without heavy blur

Road to 1,000,000 Votap users Day 69 | Current: 1351
I just hired a new employee a cat?
Over the last few days I started working on Votap Premium, and that meant diving into tools like RevenueCat. If you ve never used it before, it basically handles all the messy parts of subscriptions so you don t have to rebuild everything from scratch. It allows you to:
create and test paywalls
manage subscriptions across iOS (and more later)
track revenue, retention, conversions
handle edge cases you don t even think about at the start
We ll soon introduce two main tiers:
Monthly / Yearly Premium
Lifetime Founding Voter (one-time purchase, limited offer)
But just to be clear: nothing core is going behind a paywall. Voting will always stay free and unlimited. That s the whole point. Premium is more about enhancements, things like:
custom username
premium badge
deeper charts & filters
small identity + cosmetic upgrades
Right now I m just experimenting with pricing and the paywall itself, seeing what feels right. It s not final yet, just getting the system in place.
Feels like one of those big shifts going from just building to actually generating revenue for the first time.
Download Votap from the App Store if you want to check it out when it's live.
More tomorrow.

Let s be honest: We all love our startup ideas like they re our babies. And when we ask a standard AI for feedback, it usually gives us "hallucinated encouragement" because it s programmed to be helpful and polite.

But "polite lies" don t pay the bills.

I built Business GPT (Bunzee) because I needed a "Truth Machine" for my own messy thoughts. As a UX designer who hates wasteful friction, I wanted a way to skip the 3-month "guesswork" phase. We plugged in 200,000+ objective data points to create a system that doesn't just chat it stress-tests your logic:

Hey PH!

I launched StatusBird today, a service monitoring tool built specifically for e-commerce store owners.

Right now, the crypto Fear & Greed Index is sitting at 13. If you opened a traditional dashboard, you'd see red numbers. Candlesticks pointing down. Tables of data.

If you opened DeepMarket, you'd see a storm.

The surface is churning. Visibility is near zero. The Kraken that's Bitcoin has sunk deeper into its lair on the ocean floor. The Blue Whale (ETH) is drifting slow through dark water. And hundreds of smaller creatures are scattering through the fog.

That's what DeepMarket does. It takes ~200 live cryptocurrency assets and transforms them into a real-time 3D underwater world. No mock data, no animations on a loop every creature's species, depth, speed, color, and glow is driven by live Binance market data, 24/7.

Hello! I'm a serial founder and understand all too well the pain of marketing your solution.

I built Wovly to help make it easier to market your startup by using a custom trained AI to hep convert your company's context into content worth reading.

We kept seeing the same issues:

• Rewriting the same answers

• Poor collaboration

• No clear decision-making

So we built RFP360.ai to fix that with AI + automation.

Curious how are you handling RFPs today?

I've generated dozens of AI video clips over the past few months. Most never made it into a final video. Not because the AI was bad but because I couldn't control what I was getting.

I'm a solo founder building product marketing videos. Every launch needs a demo. Every demo needs footage. And every AI video tool promised me the same thing: type a prompt, get a video.

The reality? Type a prompt. Get something... close. But not quite right. The character looks different than I imagined. The camera angle is wrong. The lighting doesn't match my brand. So I type a new prompt and hope.

Here's what I learned after months of using Runway, Kling, and Pika: the generation is incredible. The control is nonexistent.
