I'm 17. Spent 3 months building Animiso. Launched 3 days ago.
Current stats:
- Revenue: $0
- Users: 0
- Self-doubt: ∞
I need help. Specifically: Am I doing this wrong?
## What I Built
Animiso helps freelancers stop the "any update?" text/email chaos.
Problem:
- Clients text "any update?" at random times
- Freelancers spend hours writing status emails
- 30-min calls to show one screenshot
Solution:
- Freelancer gets a unique link
- Posts updates in 30 seconds (screenshot + note)
- Client sees timeline (no login needed)
Pricing: $3/month (free plan: 1 project)
Live: animiso.fun
## What I've Tried (Day 1-3)
✅ Posted on LinkedIn (800 impressions, 2 clicks)
✅ Posted on Twitter (100 impressions, 0 clicks)
✅ Sent ~10 DMs (2 responses, 0 signups)
❌ Result: 0 users
## Where I Think I'm Going Wrong
1. **Wrong audience?**
Maybe freelancers don't actually have this problem?
(But I HAD this problem as a freelancer...)
2. **Wrong messaging?**
Am I explaining it badly?
3. **Wrong channels?**
Should I be somewhere else?
4. **Wrong pricing?**
Is $3/month too much? Too little?
5. **Wrong product?**
Does this even solve a real problem?
## What I'm Thinking of Trying Next
- Send 100 DMs instead of 10
- Make a demo video
- Drop the price to $1/month
- Offer free personal onboarding
- Give up and try a different idea
## My Ask
Roast me. Seriously.
Tell me:
- What am I doing wrong?
- What would YOU do differently?
- Is this idea even worth pursuing?
I'm 17. I don't know what I'm doing. I need guidance from people who've been here.
Code LAUNCH50 = $1.50/month forever if you want to try it and give feedback.
Be brutally honest. I can take it.
