I built a free weekly digest of what developers are complaining about.

I've been a developer for many years. I've had "launch a SaaS" on my
todo list for more than a year. I could build almost anything I
wanted. I couldn't pick what.

The advice I kept seeing: "lurk in communities and look for
patterns" is good advice. It's also slow and I never actually
did it consistently.

So I built the tool I wished existed.

Veksa scrapes Hacker News, Dev .to, and Stack Exchange every day,
looks for complaints and frustrations, and uses Claude to cluster
them into the 10 most common pain points each week. The digest
goes out every Monday. It's free.

What I want feedback on:

  1. Does "10 problems a week" feel like too many, too few, or right?
  2. What sources would you want added (Reddit, Discord)?
  3. Would you pay for a version that filtered by topic, or would
    that feel like a downgrade of the free product?

Happy to answer anything about the pipeline, prompts, stack,
whatever.
