After 23 years in manufacturing, I just launched my first SaaS 'CapsuFlow' on Product Hunt today. It’s a tool for shop floor truth. Would love the IH community's support and feedback! Link: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/capsuflow
Congrats on launching , big step after all that experience.
How are you handling billing and subscription events behind the scenes — custom webhooks or something prebuilt?
Congratulations, superb achievement
Congrats on launching CapsuFlow 👏
That’s a big step, especially coming from a manufacturing background!
I help founders test their apps and provide structured feedback on usability, bugs, and improvement opportunities.
Since you just launched, this is actually the best time to catch early UX issues before more users come in happy to run a quick review if you’re open.”
Congrats on launching after 23 years of domain expertise — that's the kind of founder-market fit investors talk about but rarely see. You've lived inside the problem long enough to know exactly where the existing solutions fall apart, and "local-first" is a really smart positioning for shop floors where cloud latency, uptime guarantees, and data sovereignty are all real concerns.
Curious about your go-to-market: are you targeting plant managers directly, or going through the Lean consultants who usually drive tool adoption? We're building an AI SaaS in a completely different space (ad creative generation), but one pattern we've noticed is that the person who feels the pain and the person who buys the tool are often different people — and figuring out which one to sell to first made a huge difference for us. With manufacturing, I'd imagine the floor supervisor knows the pain but the ops director holds the budget. How are you navigating that?
