Feedback on my B2B SaaS? 🙏😊

We are building a chrome extension to help founders prospect more easily 💪.

The extension helps you find emails and generate icebreakers using AI based on either the prospect's website or LinkedIn.

I would love to have the opinion of fellow indiehackers, could you give me some feedback 🙏😊? (It's still in beta version)

    Would it make sense to prefill all your fields as you navigate to a profile? That will save two clicks for every profile you visit.

      Very good point! Thank you for the feedback, I will add it to our roadmap!

    Just in the process of choosing a tool for scraping emails for cold outreach ourselves as we try to systemize our email marketing more. Will check this out!

      Hey Oliver, if you are looking to do it in bulk, I recommend https://datagma.com/, https://hunter.io/, and https://app.dropcontact.com/.

      At the moment, we use dropcontact within our chrome extension, but we might switch to datagma since it is a bit cheaper for the same quality, in theory.

      I recommend you to use our extension in complement with those tools, whenever you come accross a great profile on LinkedIn. It will make you gain time: no need to login to your email finder platform + auto generated icebreakers to get the conversation going.

      I would be super interested to have your feedback!

      Wish you all the best,

      Alex

    Very cool feature, and nice interface! Few recommendations/remarks:

    • put English as default
    • it doesn't save the data when leaving the tab/window
    • should make it work for Sales Navigator

      Very good points, thank you!

    Awesome idea! Just downloaded it to use for my project. Any tips cold emailing to conduct some market research and identify pain points?

    Hey Alex,

    Cool idea, I can see how it would be useful for Sales teams.

    A few notes from my experience:

    • the lag when booting the extension caused me to think I hadn’t clicked it, so ended up clicking it multiple times before I realised it was working, it was just slow to load.
    • Given that this is a Chrome extension I would look at using “Continue with Google” button instead of email password to reduce friction for sign ups
    • I didn’t have much luck with the “find email” feature when trying to search for myself, I’m not sure if there is a bug there.
    • Agree with other feedback here that having the LinkedIn data auto-fill would be nice, I also found the UI quite confusing with 4 CTAs to choose from.
    • I thought generate icebreakers wasn’t working and then realised I had to scroll down - I expected it would load in the field for some reason
    • The English version of the icebreakers weren’t very fluid to read
    • One of the icebreakers generated for my profile was:

    Your approach to infrastructure software with CloudBees is amazing. I love that you can launch faster - in one platform!

    I’m not sure what CloudBees is or where that came from. I’ve definitely never worked there, I like that company name though maybe I should use it for something!

    Hope there is something useful in there :)

      Hi Dave, thank you for your very relevant feedback! I will definitely take it into account for improving the extension, starting with the "continue with google" feature. The autofill is also on my short-term to do. Have a great day!

    Setup is a little clucky (the (X) button did not show at the beginning, I had to look for it to give permission; scrollbars show around popup) but overall it looks great!!!

      Thanks for the feedback Alex!

    This sounds like something I might use, I'm planning to do some sales work soon for my SaaS.

    Here's a few notes I typed while trying out your extension:

    1. Screenshots aren't very good, can't really tell what's going on in the pictures
    2. I'd put a video in your screenshots demonstrating usage. I almost dropped off after looking at your screenshots, but I would have watched a YouTube demo.
    3. Annoying that I need to sign up
    4. When I press your extension button it takes a few seconds to load. Don't like this.
    5. When I click your extension button, it loads, then flashes white for a bit, then it loads again. Don't like this.
    6. I filled in a few fields, changed tabs, and then lost everything. Didn't like this.
    7. I pressed the Get Profile Data and Get Email buttons but they didn't work. It's kind of annoying to have features that work some of the time. Especially for first time users. Maybe just do it silently and fill in the data if you succeed?
    8. Okay I see what "Get Profile's Data" does now. I think you should just get it on extension load. If you really want to use a button, put it at the top left so I don't waste my time filling it in and then pressing the button.
    9. The "fr"/"en" choice seems unnecessary. Just use my browser's language?
    10. Generating icebreakers took ages to load, and then didn't generate one in the end.

      Thanks for the very detailed and helpful feedback! I've added your points to our roadmap :)
