We have been working on and just released Pixigon (pixigon.com), a service for quickly creating animated marketing videos. Would love to hear feedback from you guys (and you can keep the video for free if you like it :))
I’m building persumi.com for writing/blogging, and rizz.farm for doing lead generation on Reddit.
Built persumi’s MVP in three months in my spare time, and rizz.farm in six weeks in my spare time (but haven’t launched it).
I built both projects out of my own needs - persumi for replacing my own blog, and rizzfarm for promoting persumi, hehe.
Might start a 3rd one soon (as I like to tinker) though I haven’t found a problem to solve yet. :)
Just launched HostWP.io A hosting provider with LiteSpeed Enterprise and nvme servers. It sure is faster than nginx based servers and apache doesnt come close Excited to get it rolling…
I and my colleague are creating https://ims-creators.com/. It is project management tool designed for game developing. You can describe your game as different elements: characters, beasts, abilities, items and so on and then bind tasks to these elements
I’m running an email newsletter for people interested in e-commerce and online businesses. It mainly focussed on trends, industry news and AI. It’s called Hustlers Outpost
I started it as a side hobby but am really surprised by how many people signed up. So just seeing where it takes me :)
I wanna start a newsletter with a paid subscription. How do I promote?
So I use a platform called Beehiiv, which I have found to be the best platform both in terms of ease of use and audience building.
There are then 3 ways I find that people sign up:
- Subscribers sharing with their friends/colleagues. Beehiiv works well here because they have a built-in referral system, which makes it easy and rewards people for sharing your newsletter.
- Using X and Facebook for both organic growth and paid ads. Generally, I’ve found X to be the best platform. Content is easily visible. For paid ads, it works out to be around 1.15 I pay per sub.
- Using Boosts on Beehiiv where you can pay for similar newsletters to promote yours on theirs. This is good because their audience already has an interest in newsletters in general, and the subject you talk about. So typically have a high open rate in return. More importantly, you set how much you’d like to pay for each referral, starting from 0.50 for each.
Other than that, post consistently, be engaged with your audience and enjoy it. I’ve got a lot of enjoyment out of doing mine and the opportunities are great.
Thanks for your response. So is it like a substack? How does it pay?
Yes, it is similar to substack - which is what I previously used.
Substack was good for most things, especially the ‘Notes’ section, which Beehiiv doesn’t have. The premise of notes is for newsletter content writers to read each other’s work and connect with each other, which I like.
I moved to Beehiiv after I realised that my side project was growing, and I had the opportunity to monetise it. This was in the form of boosts, ads, paid subscriptions, sponsorships, referrals, etc. The dashboard tells me everything I need to know, I can easily manage ad requests, boosts and so on.
For paid subscriptions, it’s paid and processed through Stripe (who take a small transaction fee).

I’m building boathouse.pro which offers Add-Ons for Paddle Billing (that’s a SaaS subscription billing provider that takes care of taxes which I’m betting on).
Currently I already have customer portals, embeddable pricing tables with automatic currency conversions and cancellation insight forms. If everything goes well this week I’ll have some cool new email features.
What is Paddle billing?
Paddle is a payment provider. You may have heard of Stripe, Paddle does similar things but in a different way (what they call a Merchant of Record, so basically they just handle a lot of stuff on your behalf, like sales tax).
Paddle Billing is their newest platform (they call the old one Paddle Classic now) and it’s just a big upgrade basically. Unfortunately it also meant all the people building software on top of them like my project had to implement everything from scratch - but I personally like the new APIs from a developer perspective, so happy they did.

I’m working on AnyTracker, the ultimate price tracker for iOS, macOS and Android. The main selling point is that it works on any website.
I follow your journey on Twitter really inspirant 🙏🙏
People still use Xwitter?

Good ideas:) All the best.
A robber pulled a gun on the bank clerk and manager saying, “Give me all the money! I need it to set myself up in a trade or profession. You know, initial investment is needed to cover the overheads until my cash flow is established.” The bank manager said to the clerk, “You’d better do what he says, I think he means business.”
CourseFeed is an app for students that automates finding resources and research for you based on your class syllabus. Also includes many other features useful for students like task management, full featured agenda, and project management
I’m building sntnllm.com
The idea is to build a tool that helps people who are using LLMs and text generation to keep track of their model outputs and monitor uptime. To do this, I built a few basic filters (for now, actively developing some smarter ones) and allow users to setup scheduled health checks.
I think prompt engineering is a super useful way of getting LLMs to do things, but can become a double edged sword if you don’t stay on top of it. I think this tool would be helpful if you need to rely on a model but want a good alerting system in case it outputs something unexpectedly.
I love LLMs and have worked on them at a big tech scale, so feel free to reach out with any (doesn’t have to be related to my project) questions!
