A few nights ago I rented a Getaround car. Around 10pm I started circling downtown SF, looking for parking... for 30 minutes. Thankfully I don't drive often but parking is sooo frustrating in this city if you don't have a reserved spot.
Sweetch is like "reverse Uber" and I love products that can give me more time, but I have honest skepticism of the market size and business model. I'll ping the founders to see if they want to jump in... they've thought a bit more about this than the 5 mins I've spent. ;)
Definitely solving a pain point and I think the business model can evolve.
I wonder how you overcome the multiple friction points outside of the chicken and the egg. 2 users have to be explicitly using the app in close to real-time in a geography specific area.
Excited to test it out.
Hello Guys,
I am cofounder of Sweetch. Super excited to see you on the app. Please email me at hamza@sweetch.me mentioning productHunt and I'll give you $20 credits to try it.
We have an iPhone app: www.bit.ly/downloadSweetch and webapp (private beta): app.sweetch.me. We are live in the Mission, Marina and North Beach for the moment.
@rrhoover for the moment, we are more focused on bringing a simple and efficient solution to help drivers find parking than on our business model
@MikePreuss you are right about the high time and space constraints. That's why we open Sweetch neighborhood by neighborhood
Again, super excited to see you on the app!!
Got a call from a founder moments after signing up. That's the first time I've actually been called personally just for signing up for a service. That was kind of amazing.
