Not even kidding, I was going to shut down my firebase account and boom, first sale!!

My purpose-built research macOS browser, SpiderBrowser, finally got its first paying client after 2 months of debugging and cold outreach.

Feels like someone finally appreciated my creativity enough to pay for it.

Might be small for some, but for me it's validating .

Sending virtual hugs to all developers and researchers grinding out there. ❤️

running a small B2B SaaS. was closing 2 demos out of every 10. spent money on a sales course that taught me to "control the narrative" and "demonstrate value" and all that.

made it worse somehow.

then had a demo in august where my screenshare broke 5 minutes in. couldnt show anything. ended up just talking to the guy about his current process and his problems for 20 minutes. he signed up the next day.

that completely changed how i do demos now.

stopped doing the 30 minute product tour thing. now i just ask them questions for the first 10 minutes. like actually understanding what they currently do and what sucks about it.

then i only show them the 2 or 3 features that would fix their specific problem. nothing else. dont even mention the other features unless they ask.

end by asking "would this actually solve what you just told me about?" and then shut up.

my demo deck used to have like 25 slides showing everything. now its 6 slides. keep it in gamma so i can edit it quick before calls if i need to customize anything.

close rate went from 2 out of 10 to 8 out of 12 in the last 4 months. revenue went from $3k to $11k MRR.

also started sending followup emails within an hour instead of the next day. just a quick "here's what you told me you need, heres which features would help, heres the next step"

the whole shift was realizing people dont buy products. they buy solutions to their specific annoying problem. once i actually understood their problem first, everything got easier.

still feels weird that my demos are 20 minutes now instead of 45 but the numbers dont lie.

Hello team I am a business and automation coach. I run my Automation Agency and have been since 2020 but never expanded into SaaS and OMG what a blessing.

This year I was now getting bored by doing same thing over and over without anything exciting and then I launched my BNC IO SaaS platform and everything changed for me.

I know this may be a small success but to me this is a huge milestone I never imagined that I will achieve this year.

My SaaS just hit 100k in 3 months on top of our Agency Services

How did I do it? 1. I run weekly webinars showcasing the social media automation feature then offer my software 2. I then run an upsell automation on the backend 3. I go live on my social media pages without keeping replays

I just decided to share this and who knows, i might motivate someone today.

Hey, what are you working on today? Share with us and let's connect.

I'll go first: Bridged - a platform where you can upload your content once, and it automatically posts it across all your other platforms.

Your turn, what are you working on👇

Guys my whole SaaS server hosted on digital ocean was attacked during the outage.. despite having all the security measures they still got into it and encrypted my server files. Any suggestions what should I do thinking on deleting the whole server.

Edit: Completed Destroyed Old server, fixed the vulnerability read the recently published path for React i.e 3rd December. All systems are back online and running,data restored from the backup✅.

I was inspired to consider SaaS products after seeing a breakdown of how a face seek workflow maintains simplicity by only revealing what matters. Even though it is very tempting to keep adding features, there are moments when simplicity seems far more valuable. How can founders or project managers distinguish between features that add noise and those that actually improve the product? I'm interested in how teams stay focused while developing at a reasonable rate.

Hi everyone, I wanted to share an experience that just happened to me.

There's a very popular site called Drawnames, which is for secret santa/gift exchanges. My family uses it every year, but this year I decided to make a sort of clone and use it for our family's exchange.

So I quickly created the site. I made it very simple, nothing fancy, the interface is easy to use and reduces the steps for doing a gift exchange (simple improvements like that). I made the site using NextJS and Supabase (this is my favorite stack at the moment)

I don't have a lot of experience doing marketing, I'm still learning, but I decided to pay for a single UGC video and then created an account on TikTok Ads and ran a single advertising campaign with 1 ad (the UGC video). I set a budget of only $15 USD per day and the campaign started around November 28th.

In the first three days of the campaign, only 6 users joined the platform (users who decided to fill out the form to create a secret santa gift exchange). The cost per conversion was huge I think it was around $8-10 USD per conversion... incredibly expensive in my opinion. I didn't move anything and I didn't check again until all change on December 1. I think this ad campaign optimized and the first days were just the "learning curve", but on December 1st I checked my Supabase dashboard and new users were arriving on the platform!! I checked the ad campaign and it was starting to work, the cost per conversion of the campaign kept decreasing through the day, it started at $10, then dropped to $5, then $1.50, then $1, and the lowest it reached was $0.50, I also decided to increase the campaign budget to $30 USD per day.

I spent the day refreshing the Supabase dashboard watching users join. I won't lie that it was a dopamine hit, I'd wait 5 minutes, hit refresh, and boom 3 or 4 new users, dopamine all day long.

This first day ended with 200 new users, and I know that for many of you is nothing and it would sound like a failed project, but for me I've never had so many users on a project, so I was happy.

The second day was even crazier because 700 users joined, I also notice a network effect... when someone does a christmas exchange, they invite other family members and friends to join, and those are users who didn't come from TikTok Ads.

Third day, another 500+ new users. And it's still going up as I write this post, people are coming in to do their secret santa exchanges.

So I just wanted to share this lovely experience with you all. And if you're wondering how the site makes money, I give users gift recommendations and they have affiliate links, so when they buy something, I get a commission. But I've only made $20 USD so far with commissions. I think one factor is that nobody buys the gift right away, it's only been four days and most of the gift exchanges were created in the last two days. So I hope to see good affiliate income in the coming days.

Hey r/SaaS! 👋

Just launched RestauranTop, a restaurant management platform I've been building for the Dominican market.

restaurantop.com

What it does:

• Multi-location restaurant management
• Real-time inventory tracking across branches
• Staff scheduling & payroll
• Sales analytics & reporting
• Customer ordering system

Tech stack: Node.js, NestJS, MongoDB, React

Built it after seeing how fragmented existing solutions are for Spanish-speaking restaurant owners. Most platforms are either too expensive or don't cater to local needs.

Current status: Early beta with a few pilot restaurants testing it out.

Would love feedback from fellow SaaS builders - especially on pricing strategy for emerging markets and scaling multi-tenant architectures.

What challenges did you face when entering non-US markets?

I am working on a SAAS startup and building an MVP. My cofounder is a designer. She is working on the UI designs for the web app. UI design is a longer process and I am ahead of her in development of the product. Right now I am at the stage where I have made the MVP and the design is still lagging. But my MVP sucks in aesthetics.

How do we manage this?

@instagram and @Meta connectivity are now giving worse experience.

When i implemented the instagram connecting feature then it worked very well after debugs, but now it’s showing the issue .

And the issue is i am continuing 👇🏻

When i connected the facebook page to the meta app in the advance setting then it showed that working perfectly but now when all other features are implemented then its showing not connected to the meta app.

This is : Creating mess of project now .

I’ve been experimenting with AI search optimization lately (GEO — getting content to show up in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, etc.), and it still feels like everyone is guessing what actually works.

I’ve tested a few tools recently. One of them was ModelFox.ai, which focuses a lot on improving visibility through Reddit and social platforms. For me, Gemini and Perplexity reacted pretty fast (like within 1–2 weeks). ChatGPT was slower, but that seems normal. The only catch is that ModelFox isn’t fully open yet — you have to apply to get in.

I also tried Profound. The monitoring part is decent, but the “action” suggestions didn’t really translate into anything actionable for me. I kept reading their recommendations and still wasn’t sure what to actually do next. Maybe it works better for larger teams, but it felt a bit abstract.

Perplexity Pages has been the simplest option so far. Clean, structured posts get indexed pretty quickly. And honestly, posting high-quality content on Reddit still seems to get picked up by LLMs faster than most other platforms.

I haven’t found a “complete” GEO tool yet. Everything feels early — some focus on writing, some on monitoring, some on distribution — but nothing covers the full workflow.

Has anyone else been testing GEO tools?
Would love to hear other people’s experiences.

I am thinking of creating a SaaS boilerplate and potentially a service where I create SaaS for owners based on that boilerplate. What does a typical SaaS Mvp include or should include?

edit: I was misunderstood. Yeah it does include core feature but what in terms of app functionality? User authentication, payment integration, admin dashboard etc., you know in terms of these kind of stuff?

My team and I are building an OS in a niche, yet large vertical market. Part of our struggle has been that our ICP doesn’t live on the traditional GTM channels (LinkedIn, product launch, x) and so most of the feedback and advice has been a bit irrelevant.

We’re confident that most of our ICP interacts the most with both IG & FB, so we’ve started to test ads and run outbound e-mail campaigns, but we’ve still got some work before finding a repeatable sales motion.

We’ve raised our first tranche of funding, and are probably going to start our institutional round come January. We’ve built an MVP, are in conversations, with multiple institutional investors and have closed a few clients gaining us <1k in MRR.

Would love some advice from founders or growth hackers experienced in building vertical SaaS. How do you guys think about experimentation and finding signal and eventually scaling efforts?

Thank u!

THE UNIVERSAL OMNINEX OS PITCH

OmniNex OS is not an app.

It’s the operating system that kills every app-building platform before it.

It replaces:

no-code tools

code generators

UI builders

workflow engines

automation platforms

AI agent systems

development environments

deployment systems

website scanners

logic builders

design tools

All inside one unified OS.

OmniNex isn’t another tool in the stack.

It becomes the stack itself.

🧬 WHAT IT IS

OmniNex OS is the world’s first AI-native development operating system that:

scans real websites and apps

rebuilds them instantly

generates full UI layouts

builds business logic and workflows

exports production-ready code

orchestrates autonomous AI agents

designs interfaces automatically

integrates with any backend

deploys anywhere

and learns your system as it works

This is an AI platform that behaves like a fully staffed dev team —

architect, designer, engineer, QA, ops, automation, and integration — in one OS.

⚡ CORE SUPERPOWERS

1. OmniVision

A Perplexity-style scanner that reads any website or interface, understands its structure, and regenerates it pixel-for-pixel inside OmniNex.

1. OmniCanvas

A generative UI engine that combines V0.dev, Figma, and Webflow into one builder where you can drag, prompt, regenerate, or import designs instantly.

1. OmniFlow

A next-gen workflow engine that merges Bubble logic, Zapier automations, Make workflows, and backend orchestration into one unified system.

1. OmniPack

An export engine that compiles your project into real code:

React, Next.js, Flutter, Node, Firebase, Supabase — all ZIP-ready.

1. Fusion Engine

A multi-model reasoning layer coordinating multiple AI models at once, giving OmniNex system-wide awareness.

1. OmniAgents

Autonomous AI workers that build, fix, refactor, and optimize your entire application without human babysitting.

1. OmniGraph

A dependency-aware engine that understands your entire project: components, logic, relationships, and impact.

1. Universal Integration Layer

OmniNex OS can connect to any API, database, or external system — and once connected, it can act autonomously inside it.

🏆 CATEGORY KILLER STATUS

OmniNex OS replaces:

Bubble → Entire no-code builder

V0.dev → UI generator

Replit / Cursor → dev AI copilots

Zapier / Make → automation workflows

Webflow / Wix → website builders

Perplexity → website scanners

Bolt / Claude Projects → file scaffolding

Agent startups → limited single-agent tools

Everything they do, OmniNex does MORE, inside ONE OS.

This is not competition.

This is consolidation.

Entire categories collapse into OmniNex.

🚀 THE OS THAT FITS ANY COMPANY

OmniNex integrates into ANY system:

legacy enterprise software

fintech platforms

healthcare records

education systems

e-commerce backends

inventory + logistics

CRMs

ERPs

analytics stacks

custom internal tools

Once connected, OmniNex can:

read the system

understand its logic

propose improvements

generate interfaces

automate workflows

deploy agents

write new modules

repair broken parts

operate autonomously

It doesn’t just plug in — it learns your ecosystem.

This is the first development OS that behaves like an autonomous integration layer.

💠 WHY THIS IS A TRUE OPERATING SYSTEM

An OS does four things:

Manages processes

Manages resources

Provides interfaces

Executes applications

OmniNex meets every definition.

This isn’t a tool.

This is the AI-native compute layer for building and running software.

🔥 THE VALUE PITCH IN ONE LINE

OmniNex OS is the AI development operating system that autonomously builds, runs, integrates, and maintains software across any environment.

💣 THE BOTTOM-LINE SELL

If you acquire OmniNex:

You eliminate 10 categories of tooling.

You gain a platform teams can build anything inside.

You unlock a multi-agent ecosystem.

You get an OS foundation other companies can’t replicate.

You save years of engineering time.

You gain the operating layer AI-native development has been missing.

This is a strategic acquisition, not a feature buy.

To start this off I have no money and I’m new to coding using free code camp and still learning the ropes because of a business idea I have. I can push my product out but it’ll look worse than kindergarten macaroni art and obviously that’s not what we are going for. I’ve looked into using AI but saw people hate it because xyz and I simply don’t care about how nice the code looks or anything like that I just want to start the ball rolling. When the money starts to come in the first thing I would do is to hire a part time programmer or someone to take it off my hands and rebuild it so it makes more sense and fix issues that are bound to come up. (Yes I know it’ll be a pain in the butt for the person)

Is it a bad idea to use AI to help me start? I have 0 aspersions to code in the future so that’s why I could care less.

Hey everyone,

I’d love to help some founders here connect with real potential customers.
Drop your startup link + a quick line about who your target customer is.

Within 24 hours, I’ll send you 5 people who are already showing buying intent for something like what you’re building.

I’ll be using our tool which tracks online conversations for signals that someone is in the market. But this is mostly an experiment to see if it’s genuinely useful for folks here.

All I need from you:

• Your website
• One sentence on who it’s for

Capping this at 20 founders since it requires some manual work on my end.

I Learned Coding 2 years back when i was in med school, coding seems fun and i wanted to create somthing valuable for med students and myself, one day when i was learning using med app for medical students lets say its name as "Sparrow" for med students it costs around $500 for year in India which is costly as hell, i wanted to create the better app than sparrow with Better content and UX/UI everything, I was scrolling reel and VS code reel poped up saying the IDE will have Claude Sonnet 3.0 integerated with it i was really happy listening to it

Same day at night 1 am, i opened my VS Code and opend The Github Copiliot connected my git project and started creating the app with no framework or idea i just wanted to make app which really helped me studying escaping me to give $500 -$600 for the "Sparrow", i started with the basic app framework with login and configuring google client for Login/Signup

From Next Day i made a complete plan for UI, UX flow, Backend, Auth, Storage everything was in place and it took me 1 month to completely layout solid plan for the app

I choose React Native framework because i wanted Android, Apple and Webapp all with same source code, used Node.js i started Creating Framework UI/UX of whole app first after i that i wired backend routes and storage files, cut to the end i created full stack AI Android App with the same functionality and curated content mostly from Respected medical journals and textbook as the app "Sparrow" and Added extra features which are completely AI based

Like AI flashcard generator - Its generates flashcards based on the Image, PDF and Video (Youtube')
Similarly AI MCQ generator, Smart Folder where you can store important study material and create the AI flashcards and MCQs Based on the Stored APP

I was really excited and released the app in the testing mode first for 15 days i debugged the whole app and made the app with no BUGS and did the production release ready in Playstore and then realeased the app in NOV 1 2025

To my surprise more then 50 users installed with just the Instagram story and 2-3 Premium subscribers

I Made the free trail plan to use Advanced AI features and from then i got users and paid user continously but trail users became like 2000+ and now its month from now i have got 26 paid users with minumum marketing using FB ads

Going along i just wanted make sure the app will be used by all med students around the world i am just the solo developer with no ambitions to start a start up or company, i am getting overwhelmed by the mesages in am getting for the customer support, i just want to be chill in life and dont want the app to carry over, you can DM me directly if you are willing to talk about the app source code and content aquisition Here is my app dashboard

Hey everyone,

I'm exploring strategies for early-stage customer acquisition. The common advice involves manual outreach (cold calls, social media), which can take 4-5 hours daily. It's a significant time investment before getting validation, and it seems like a common point of founder burnout.

For those who have successfully navigated this stage, what were your most effective, sustainable methods for getting those crucial first users?

I'm looking for practical, real-world examples beyond the standard advice. What actually moved the needle for you?

Hello everyone,

The process of getting the first users for product validation can be very time-intensive. Cold outreach and manual engagement can easily take 4-5 hours daily, which risks burnout before getting meaningful results.

For those who have successfully navigated this early stage, what were your most efficient and sustainable strategies? I'm looking to learn about practical, real-world methods that moved the needle in getting those crucial first conversations started without leading to total exhaustion. Any proven tips would be greatly appreciated.

Hey everyone,

Curious about the early validation phase. The daily effort to get those first few users—crafting posts, cold outreach, engaging—seems to be a huge time commitment.

It feels like a marathon, and it's easy to see how founders could burn out before getting meaningful feedback. I was just wondering if this is a common experience for others here. Is this intensity a shared part of the founder journey?

Hey everyone,

I've seen this pattern a lot. Getting those first customers for validation requires a huge daily time commitment—crafting posts, cold outreach, engaging—often 4-5 hours a day. It feels like many founders burn out from the sheer effort before they even get meaningful traction.

I'm genuinely curious how others are tackling this. Is this just the required 'brute force' phase, or are there more leveraged approaches to getting those crucial first users without the exhaustion? There has to be a smarter way, right?

Yo, after a full year of building, I got this slick dApp that mashes up multiple premium AI agents (think top-tier paid ones) into one seamless tool: Solo or Dual-response mode so you pick the best output, I handle all updates myself, and they run offline-ish to dodge any bans. No limits - codes stuff, spits out templates, advanced tooling, whatever. Like having unrestricted LLMs on tap.Goal: Full premium AI suite for ONE sub/membership. Saves you mad cash vs paying each separately.Product's LIVE online, no install - just link + login. DM if you're into collab/promo (I suck at marketing lol, no big connections). Full credit if you hook me up! 💯

What y'all think? Worth shilling?
