Explain your project in 10 words or less!

Hey Indie Hackers - do you remember 10words? I launched here all the way back in 2018! Since then I've received almost 10k submissions and driven 1.2M visitors to projects based on simple 10 word pitches.

Crafting a clear, succinct description of your project is tough, but it's a great exercise for every founder. And it's a great way to do a little self-promotion 🙃

So jump in and tell us about your startup/side-project in 10 words or less, and be sure to add a link to your project so we can check it out.

Don't forget to add your project to be included in the 10words.io newsletter inspired by this series 👋

    Awesome and difficult exercise! Would be a great exercise for an outsider to attempt to illustrate the 10 word pitch for others' projects as well.

I've got a freelance client already that I am doing this for. But the goal is to get a couple more and hire a couple of editors so they take over that part of the process, while I focus on the client/growth side.
