Hi everyone, nice to meet you. I'm Paul, and the first ASMR video I ever discovered was this one. So I guess that means I've been listening to these videos and audios for almost 20 years, which is outrageous. Anyway, I wanted to put a little bit of my day job knowledge as a PM to good use in a crossover with the ASMR space. Sometimes, I feel like my circle of subscribed creators is too small or too niche, but don't really have an easy way to understand what other creators or videos are out there that provided the style or trigger(s) I was looking for. Sure, I have a YouTube playlist that's hundreds of videos deep. But most of those videos are collecting dust in the archives, and not really informing the way I listen to ASMR at present. So I had an idea. And that idea has become the Tingle Tracker. This is a web app designed to help you build and mold your own, personal ASMR profile. This goes beyond just building playlists, and crosses into a moment-to-moment understanding of what tingles hit you the hardest and when. A quick interactive wireframe demo of the process for both listener and creator can be found here. Sign-up is 100% free and only requires an email address. Load a video in the app by providing a direct YouTube link, and then, as you watch/listen, log your "tingles" by setting an intensity value from 1-5 and tapping a button as it happens. That's it. The app works to understand what the type of tingle is at that point based on an audio analysis, and will store your input and its findings on your profile. For the creator, the listener feedback is anonymized to provide deeper insight into what (and when) is most impactful in their videos. If you're a passive listener, you can engage "Sleep Mode" to bypass the active logging while still giving the creator feedback in the form of a logged "sleep session." The app is early stage and doesn't have anything nearing a full, complete understanding of the ASMR ecosystem. That'll always be evolving. What I do need at this point is eyes other than my own to try this out and let me know what does/doesn't work, and what you'd want this to do. Sign-up is free (there are pricing pages but they're not for listener accounts and not the focus of this right now) and only requires an email address for profile building. What this app does NOT do: - Store contact info beyond an email address. Use a burner if you like, just trying to guard against spam sign-ups. - Provide tools for in-app conversation or contact. You can set a display name, but that is not actually currently surfaced to anyone but you. No creator contact info is ported over into the app. - Take away from creators' YT metrics. The player was designed specifically to ensure the proper YT viewability metrics are sent. Watching here will not take away from a creator's YT numbers. - Charge listener profiles a fee. Ideally, as/if this grows, I see it as a marketing and content performance tool for creators' toolbelts, but that's for later. I want listeners to better understand their own ASMR responsiveness, and find new creators and videos by way of that understanding. Listener accounts will always be free. - Integrate with other platforms. YouTube-only right now.
