I'm the maker behind ProofPing. Excited to share what I've been building solo for the past few weeks.
The story: I got tired of sending proposals into the void. You know that feeling โ you spend hours crafting the perfect pitch, hit send, and then...silence. Did they open it? Are they interested? Should I follow up today or wait?
I built ProofPing to end the guessing.
It's dead simple:
1. Paste any link
2. Get a tracked URL
3. Get pinged the second it's opened
Works with everything โ Google Docs, Notion, PDFs, portfolios, Loom, Calendly. If it has a URL, ProofPing tracks it.
Currently free forever (5 tracked links/month). Working on a Pro version with location insights, device detection, and unlimited tracking.
Would love your feedback! What features would you want to see? What would you use it for?
Also happy to answer any questions about building solo, the tech stack, or the Chrome Web Store approval process.
Thanks for checking it out ๐

honestly this looks super useful, i've been burned too many times not knowing if a proposal email got opened. one thing i'd love to see is the ability to schedule a follow-up reminder if the link hasn't been opened after like 24 or 48 hours, kind of a nudge built right into the extension so you don't have to track that separately in your head

@torin_irwinย This is such a great point โ "burned too many times not knowing" is exactly the pain I built ProofPing to fix.
Your follow-up reminder idea is genius. I've been thinking about the same thing: if a link hasn't been opened in 24-48 hours, ProofPing pings you with a suggested follow-up. Basically doing the mental tracking for you.
Adding this to the Pro roadmap right now. Would you want to be one of the first to try it when it ships? Happy to give you early access in exchange for feedback ๐
The approach behind ProofPing is exciting, especially the focus on know the second your client opens your proposal. Big congratulations on the launch! ๐

@leon_ostrezย Thanks, Leon! ๐ Really appreciate the kind words.
The "know the second" part was the whole reason I built this โ I got tired of guessing whether my proposals were even opened. Turned out a lot of other freelancers were in the same boat.
Been following Pythagora's journey too โ huge fan of what you're building. Congrats on your traction as well!
