Share your project and I'll try to find you users
- Share a link to your project.
- Describe what the project does(a pitch).
Add more details if necessary.
For those who want to try themselves(and provide feedback on how it went), Olwi is the tool I use for the search.
Edit: it's quite a lot of requests, I'll process all of them from oldest to the newest.
Some general tips:
- Use Showoff your startup threads to share your product.
- Same as the above, but every week.
- The same concept, but for feedback - Feedback Fridays.
- Post on /r/SideProject to get feedback and attract some users.
Edit 2: I don't review new comments, sorry.

Hi everyone!
https://user-onboarding.app/
Our app is made for No-Code building step by step guides.
Some users leave your site because they do not understand how to use your product. According to various estimates, percent of these users can reach 30%.
Our app helps you to convey the value of your product to your users. And it increases the conversion to paying customers.
You can try it without installing any code on your site.
Use promocode FROM_IH to get 20% discount on any plans.
Is there any way to run a guide manually? I want to show it in some cases only
Of course, you can choose the "manual" trigger type from the guide and run it using the JS code anywhere in your project.
Hi! Here are some threads to engage with to suggest your product:
Relevant subreddits to look at periodically.
Hi! Oh, thanks a lot. I will definitely try these links.
What about the time to display the tooltip? The solutions I used are too slow.
We tried to make the client pixel as small as possible. On average, rendering the first step takes about 0.3 second. Usually this indicator is 2-3 seconds for other solutions.

I'm building a service that helps founders (just like you and me) craft their investor updates in literally seconds. We're currently in the testing phase of the MVP, so I could really use some help.
I'd love to give anyone of you a demo of the tool and see if it ACTUALLY alleviates your pain related to any part of creating and sending investor emails, and if I'm not chasing windmills, haha.
Let me know if you're up for a chat sometime next week. 15min max, promise!

We're still in the pre-launch phase, but we're looking for feedback on the landing page and early access members for beta testing. We are a service that is the Google login for every authentication method (including email/password, social authentication, and blockchain wallet authentication with more to come post-launch). We can be incorporated into any frontend with only a few lines of code!
Nice, we've got competition ;)
Nice! Bring it on!
Here are the subreddits you can submit the tool and for feedback:
You may try to PM some people that are active on a sub, like in this relevant post - Why do websites insist on strong passwords and then cap them at 16 characters and a small subset of symbols?.
The other posts where you may PM to the author and/or leave a comment with your service:
Awesome, thank you!
You're welcome, I hope that helps.
How do you track sessions without cookies? local-storage or some alternative? IP based?
We use fingerprinting. You can learn more about that here or take a look at our source-code.

My little newsletter focuses on trend research for solopreneurs and indie makers.
I like that you call it my little newsletter :)
Hi!
Here are some relevant threads you may reply to:
While I was working on the 1st version of my tool that simplified searching for problems to solve, opportunities, I've noticed not many people look for them explicitly. Posting excerpts on relevant subs did a job, I gained 200+ subscribers from Reddit. However, I got banned on /r/BusinessIdeas for posting ideas and problems lol(but there was a link to my newsletter where I said "if you prefer email updates..."). You may take a look at my posts to see what may work best.
Do you engage with "I don't know what opportunity to take" like posts?
Awesome thanks!
I feel like "I don't know what opportunity to take" posts are not really a good fit so I never commented so far 😅
What are the primary reasons people read your newsletter? Maybe I'd find some interesting posts.
My readers are primarily entrepreneurs looking for business ideas.
https://journalisticapp.com
A micro journaling PWA with focus on minimalistic writing experience. I try to make the writing experience as clean as possible while still providing powerful insights about what was written, e.g. with #tags and @mentions.
The app also features modules for dreams, notes, wisdom, ideas, etc. that can be turned on/off depending on demand.
As of now the app is free, but I'm trying to figure out how to best monetize it given the chaos with AppStore / PlayStore payment guidelines, etc.
I love the minimalist approach :) It looks very clean and simple!
Thanks a lot Ida!
Hi. Reply to these posts and/or PM the author and commentators to recommend your app:
Wow, amazing! May I ask how you found those threads, just with the Reddit search?
I use my tool for it! There's a free plan to just try it out, or let me know if you need to increase the limits. Or, if you need more specific posts.

You're welcome!
I see someone posted a feedback request for the tool. You may try other subreddits such as:
Here are the other posts you may PM authors or commentators to ask for feedback:
Subreddits, where your users may hang out, are:
I use r/SaaS weekly post. is that any good?
Can't say anything about it, I don't remember if I tried it out. But it gets you more exposure, so I'd recommend to post there at least once to see the results.
I have already posted https://twayobiz.com several times. Its the only Reddit channel I've posted in and i don't know how much traffic I should get from a Reddit post.
May be a bit off-topic?: Do you have any recommendations on onboarding users inside your SaaS dashboard? I have 11 members and they never use us as they drop off during onboarding.
Heres a list of some of the tools I use for SaaS analytics, feedback, and onboarding.
Hey, Sewell!
Just saw this comment. I know you posted it ~2 months ago but I thought I'd reach out to you about it if you don't mind.
Driftly is new on the scene and we want to make our platform (similar to Usetiful) as solid as humanly possible.
I was hoping to ask you a few questions so I can handover some intel to Jacob (my technical co-founder) for our product roadmap...
Thanks in advance!
Hi, although I shut down Twayobiz, I have Usetiful running on https://obeatow.com.
My experience with Usetiful has been the best. Although I can only create one tour on free plan, It is still the best because of their generous free plan.
If I could create two tours on the free plan.
No negative memories.
I like free plans so probably if my websites were cheaper. Although thats not happening anytime soon.
Thanks for your reply here, Sewell! Super helpful for me. And Obeatow looks cool.
So if you wanted to give Driftly a try, you can start a 14-day free trial but would eventually become a $25/mo customer.
I totally get why the free Usetiful plan works for you! But... keep in mind that although. you'll eventually be a paying customer with us, you'll have access unlimited tours and checklist!
So you could implement a tour for customer onboarding but also others when users are on different pages, you want users to adopt new features, you want to nudge users to convert from a free trial or upgrade their plan, etc. The sky's the limit!
You'll just be capped by the total number of tours you could show to customers (1,000 impressions / mo).
Either way, it's all good haha.
So... want to give it a try? You'll be customer #3!

Hi @v8ever and everyone 👋
My brother and I have just launched our scalable cloud graph database SurrealDB in public open beta (completely free to use)! We've been working on this for a number of years, and are completely bootstrapped.
We wanted to create a database that people didn't have to manage, so they could focus on building applications, not the infrastructure. We wanted users to be able to use schema-less and schema-full data patterns effortlessly, a database to operate like a relational database (without the JOINs), but with the same functionality as the best document and graph databases. And with security and access permissions to be handled right within the database itself. We wanted users to be able to build modern real-time applications effortlessly - right from Chrome, Edge, or Safari. No more complicated backends.
We would love you all to check it out and welcome any feedback - https://surrealdb.com!

Built this with my fiance over the holidays, was lots of fun!
We're currently trying to gain some early adopters, make sure that the app actually works for customers.
🙏
It's a nice design and quite a niche thing, good job. Noticed a minor typo on the landing: "Interactve".
I couldn't find relevant discussions, I guess I don't know what your target customers are looking for when they want to have such a solution. I may suggest finding active(see hot/new posts and who the author and commentators) members of recruiting subreddits to message them directly.
An AI-powered logo design maker: https://instantlogodesign.com ☺️☺️
We launched this product 2 years ago but didn't focus on online marketing.
I'm looking for feedback on the landing page - we had the steps like asking the industry, preferred logo type, and color scheme, but we found out the logos downloaded were not what users selected earlier. Therefore we skip these steps, start generating logos after you key in the business name - go straight to the point.
Please comment!
You could comment here your insights(e.g. "you may not need a designer...").
See this post for inspiration, you could do something similar.
Use "need a logo" keyword to monitor for such requests on Reddit.
Oh man, thank you so much for the comment!! I definitely will create a similar post like the one you sent me on Reddit, and use my logo make to design new logos for them. Appreciate that!😁
Hi 😊

PoeticMetric is a privacy-oriented web analytics tool. You can check it out from here -> https://www.poeticmetric.com/
Web analytics is complex since everyone who has a site has potential. It is hard to plan a content creation schedule based on a huge group of people.

It detects market trading opportunities using the data scientist's way.
I´m a software engineer and data scientist, and for the last 4 years I've been doing some trading and trying to find a better way to do it, I read and study A LOT, earning money, losing money experimenting, with all those experiences I build a really good automated strategy to analyze over 10k of instruments and get trading opportunities in seconds. I wrote an article about it if you want to read it https://medium.com/@_jotase/how-to-earn-extra-money-in-trading-in-a-very-easy-and-efficient-way-81e886b4f67e.
It's totally free and I would like to receive some feedback about its performance and how could I monetize it.
Regards!
Hi. You may help people in relevant subreddits - provide your insights, lessons learned, what you've learned last week/day/year, share some strategies with them. In relevant discussions, you can share a link to your app. As time goes on, you'll get some traction.
As for monetization, you could limit some functionality. E.g. update the data once in 30 mins for free and, say, once in 5 mins for a paid plan. Then, more stocks to monitor are available in the paid plan.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate this!

Hey y'all,

As part of the #buildsell30 challenge I am building a platform that matches diabetes patients with personalized tools, resources and services.
I am working on market research and the next phase would be the MVP. I am working on onboarding users and reaching out to clinicians to see if they would be interested in recommending the platform when it launches.
Although the platform hasn't launched I have a landing page that I have connected to a type form to help with market research and to collect emails of potential users and service providers.
Here's the landing page: https://liber8.carrd.co/
I would appreciate some feedback and ideas for onboarding users, and service providers and feel free to drop your email if you are interested.
Thank you!
Hi, you could monitor the questions on /r/diabetes, it's where your target people are. And, the relevant subs. Engage in the discussions, or PM them directly to ask to try it out and for feedback.

https://idealmedtech.com
We're a prerevenue medical device company, bringing artificially intelligent glucose control to the ICU, reducing mortality up to 30% across the board, and saving hospitals 20% of their bottom line on their most expensive patients.
We dont have a product yet, only a prototype for our FDA approved clinical studies, but assuming you did, how would you go about making contact with the C levels and admins who make hospital purchasing decisions? How would you build a network of champions (doctors who advocate for your product in their hospital)?
As I am a total newbie in contacting C-levels, I'd go on Linkedin to find those and message them in bulk. But before that, I'd message doctors to ask who is responsible for purchasing decisions in their hospital.
I'd also read some articles to dive into the topic beforehand, but you're there already.
Also, you may ask doctors on Reddit in relevant subreddits, e.g. /r/AskDocs, I'm not sure though if that subreddit is okay with such questions(read the rules beforehand).
I primarily do research on Reddit, so if you think it can be helpful, let me know.
I strongly believe that every developer is a teacher and likewise. Every time you are asked to help someone else understand your code, you’ll always be grateful to be able to share your own knowledge with others.
Explain Code App is the place you can make this happen!
I am eager to hear your thoughts on what I have put together so far. Would love to hear your feedback!
Let me know if there are any other features you would like for this site, I’m open for ideas and would love the community feedback.
Here is the link: https://www.explaincode.app/
Your case is quite simple, go to /r/learnprogramming subreddit to engage with almost every question there.
Thank you, I'm in several Reddit groups related to coding.
Cheers.

I didn't find relevant and recent threads on Reddit, but you may answer this question on Quora(the first relevant result from Google): Is there a Wayback Machine for apps?
https://deploymentfromscratch.com/ is an introductory but comprehensive guide on web application deployment.
It's an ebook with some practical demonstrations.
Engage with these threads:
Monitor the other similar as the latter threads to answer such questions with a reference to your ebook.
Thank you taking the time to answer. It's certainly a direction I am trying to make, although try not to be too spammy ;)
No problem. Yes, there's some amount of spamminess in this approach that people may indicate to, but it's relevant enough to them(they asked how to deploy - you answered).
The other method is to share your lessons, re-purpose some materials from the book and share on Reddit. Read the target subreddit rules, maybe message the mods to know if it's fine for you to put a link to your course inside the good information you want to share.
Yep, that's what I am doing. Actually my strategy for 2022 might be more Twitter, we'll see.

We're a search engine for media. It works really well to find that one movie or tv show with that name you can't quite remember. See where your favorite shows are streaming online. Keep track of what your network watches.
We're building out new features to make it work with all types of media very soon!
Hi, here are some threads you can engage with(reply to or PM the people and author):
Couldn't find others, I miss the true people's intentions behind their searches for such a solution. You may try looking at relevant subreddits(to engage in the right discussions there):
What do you think your target users write in their texts that can be found? E.g. I tried "save a book/movie", "streaming service".
Hey all,
I am working on my project for a couple of months now and I think it's getting some traction already!
The project is basically two job boards focused on providing exclusively remote frontend and backend jobs (https://www.remotefrontendjobs.com and https://www.remotebackendjobs.com respectively). I am now aggregating data from 16 different job sources, doing some data transformations and filtering. Based on that, I can provide a specific, tailored job feeds to my users, which they can subscribe to as well. So far the outcome is great! We have some daily usage from people and some keep coming back.
Hi!
Here are some threads to engage with:
Also, take a look at this sub periodically.
Wow, thanks! Didn't realize you will answer so quickly. I am going to take a look at those reddits now.
Btw, what approach would you recommend? I wouldn't want to just put my links out there as an advertisement. Should I probably engage with specific users who asked questions on there?
Yep, just links won't work. Engage with the threads - write your insights, stories, lessons, case studies, and what is applicable, the goal is to give people value and not to promote something. If your link fits the context, you can put it.
In those threads above, you may write about the remote job market right now and tell about why did you create the service, or mention that you'd go to your website to look for positions, because of X and Y.
Or/and you may just PM people who ask such questions and ask them nicely about feedback(e.g. "I saw you posted <X>, this is what I was struggling with, so I created this tool" - but not so advertising haha). Responses rates should be high if you write to relevant people. If it's remote work subreddits - it's already relevant, and if a person asks some places to find jobs - it's highly relevant.
You may skim through this article. Let me know if you have questions!
@v8ever Thanks! I wanted to share some quick feedback with you! I used most of the channels you sent me and I already had more than 200 visits and some insightful conversations :) Thanks!
That's awesome, congrats on your progress!

The way in which consume information and think about learning is fundamentally broken. We forget most of the information we consume. Think about it - how much time have you lost to this inefficiency? The damage is colossal.
That's the problem we're trying to solve at Sage. We're trying to create a gamified notes app to solve these problems by enabling people to grow a daily learning habit and convert valuable information into knowledge.
Check us out. Feedback welcome!

Hi!
Here are some threads you can engage with(reply or DM the author/commentator to recommend your tool):
Try to ask for feedback(create posts) in the subreddits(if you haven't already) I mentioned in the post itself, you'll get more exposure.
Couldn't find many, if you have more use cases(saves time, diminishes endless scrolling, etc.), let me know. I understand a user's intent of wanting such a solution, but can't fathom more keywords they would use to search for the solution. What do you think?
You all know the link shorteners.
I didn't do anything original, I created one more ^^.
But this one has special features that others do not offer in their service.
I added the possibility of making CTAs overlay (Demo: https://srttly.com/ads-forum)
Spash page and insta bio (like linktree).
There are lots of other features and I invite you to discover them (https://shorttly.net)
Knowing that it is still a beta version, I am looking for regular users so that we can make it stable before adding other innovative features.
that will maximize visibility, profit and customers.
We offer unlimited access for 6 months to 20 people interested in helping us improve the project.
in response here or by e-mail: [email protected]
It's a cool idea.
Could you provide some use-cases for the features and this service in general? I can't find many people searching for link shorteners ;)
Hello v8ver,
Sorry for my late response.
There are several cases for using this type of functionality.
When we affiliate to share content such as an article related to the product and service. By adding a CTA overlay you can redirect the prospect to their sales page.
During a marketing campaign to optimize it. You can add a FaceBook, Linkedin or other pixel to it in order to always be visible to the prospect.
There is the splash page feature, which displays a small sales page before redirecting to the initial landing page. Which can be interesting when we blog, affiliate, marketing or other to highlight a far product or other.
There are other functions and possibilities, especially as we have plenty of them awaiting development to transform any link into an interactive link and it does not matter where it will be shared.
There are some demonstrations on the sales page on Jvzoo.
fr.shorttly.net
And as I announced in the previous post. If you are interested in helping us to perfect it. We can give you free access to the unlimited offer for 6 months

Our web app is a marketing automation platform, specifically for cold outreach.
We haven't launched yet and the homepage is still under constructions but we are close. Would be good to get ideas of good sub reddits to target.
Thanks,

Hi!
All of that I found by listing your competitors, because "sales automation" is too abstract. You could find a lot more if specifying the right searching intent of potential customers(i.e. what do they really need). If you need help with it, let me know, we'll try practicing using Olwi, that'd be simpler.
Thanks for taking a look at the tool! Let me know your feedback.

Hi. A relevant post where you can reply to.
One more, which is maybe not about exact thing your product does, but you can contact commentators, some of them may need such a tool as they do dev ops.
Same here where you left a comment, try to reach out directly to the commentators.
Thanks @v8ever. Your way of paying it forward is invaluable, and can't thank you enough.
Hi! I'm Shany from Amy 🚀
Amy’s AI-powered Chrome Extension saves you days of research by providing you with information from across the web and actionable insights about every person you meet with, helping you personalize and ace all of your meetings!
https://www.producthunt.com/posts/amy-2 --> Live on Product Hunt NOW!
Our website: https://www.myamy.io/?ref=producthunt
Hi! It's the kind of software people won't search for intentionally, because they don't know they need it. I suggest you take a look at meeting-related communities where you may contact active users(who post/comment) directly and ask to try the tool out.
https://prospected.carrd.co/ (the domain connection is in progress)
Our app is a database of 6,000+ websites that accept guest post submissions. The data include Domain Rating, Traffic, Keyword, Contact Info, and Pricing.
No extra outreach is needed, we have already outreached to all the website owners included in the database, you just need to send them a message + payment to place a link on their site.
The site is still in development, would love to know how I can the initial users (10-20)?
Thanks in advance!
That's a good idea.
I'm sharing some posts/comments where you can reply to(and message the authors/commentators directly to recommend your service):
Response rate is high if your request is relevant(it is), so tell those people what you've got. You can find a lot of leads from Reddit alone because you solve a frequent pain of "where do I get backlinks", "where to guest post", etc.
And see new posts at:
But it'd be simpler to monitor all of that on Olwi. If you need your limits increased - let me know.
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome!
https://Remote-Work.app
More than just a web app to share remote jobs, we want to create a community of remote workers, to share travel experiences, meet other remote workers and of course, find remote jobs.
You may reply here and contact the author and commentators to recommend trying your platform. There are 350+ comments, so you'll be busy :)
I'd recommend engaging in posts and making content at:
Thank you for the advice
https://bugasura.io
A simple straight forward, fast running, very easy to use bug tracker and issue tracker.
We moved away from a 14 day trial to a freemium model and found an increase in active users. We moved from 10 DAU to 100 DAU in 6 weeks.
We got paying customers who graduated from freemium to paid in 6 weeks.
Many bug trackers have been built but overtime it got complex to understand, configure and use.
Our active daily usage time increased from 25 mins to 45 mins over last 6 weeks.
We are implementing user feedback and seeing average time spent growing after every new release.
Last 3 months, our users have reported and closed 4042 bugs.
We are looking at new user acquisition ideas.
Those are some interesting insights.
Here are posts where you may reply to telling your insights and putting a link, and often you can PM the authors and the relevant commentators:
There are many people who search for this kind of software because they know what to search for(not some vague "increase sales", "do better product management"), hence Reddit is a good source of leads.
Also, you may create content(lessons learned, case studies) there to attract such people w/o replying/contacting them by yourself. For every subreddit, it may be different content. Sometimes it can be repurposed.
Hope that helps. If you need more help, let me know.
I am impressed with your dedication to help me and others.
Is there a way I can be of help to you?
I'd be grateful for any kind of feedback on olwi.xyz - you may try it for free and tell me what you don't like there(if you plan to do market/competitors research, find more potential customers)!
Thanks for the links in your edit. Saved them for later. I'm finally ready to start thinking about growth more seriously.
If anyone has some specific ideas about channels that might be a great fit for me, I'd love the leads. TIA!
www.lurnby.com
Lurnby is a read-it-later tool for digital content like web articles, newsletters, and ebooks. By making it easy to highlight and take notes, it supports active reading and learning. It also makes it simple to start reviewing your content with spaced-repetition. That way, when you read something, you’re more likely to remember it.
It's a good problem to solve!
Contact the authors and commentators(to recommend your project):
Particular comments(people that don't remember much of what they read):
Wow. These were all found by your tool Olwi yes?
It seems pretty fantastic.
Thanks for this! I'll give this a shot today :D
Yes, this is all from Olwi for searching for about 5 mins! Let me know if you have any struggles there!
For sure. The art is in choosing the right keywords yes?
Correct! It's difficult sometimes. Especially, in the beginning. The primary goal is to understand what is the user intent, so what (s)he puts in the post/comment.
In your example, it could be a user who shares a lesson with others, and they comment how nice his approach is. You may find the post and comments to PM them all.
Or, a user who posts in the mental health community about struggles with remembering things due to, say, depression.
Or, a person who is tired of reading books and not remembering much, so she may say "recommend me an app to read books" - yeah, the problem is not with a particular app, but technique, but she may write so.
Or, a teacher complaining her students don't learn enough from one lesson, they say it's complicated. She asks for a piece of advice.
And many other intents. Let me know if you need help with assembling keywords!
haha. Wow. You're like a wizard at imagining different use cases.
These situations are all very real opportunity areas. Thanks.
I think i've honestly been too lazy to start thinking things through at this level of detail, coding has been much easier.
But I can't really justify that much longer and need to start trying to sell. I appreciate the advice you gave here man and good luck with Olwi. I'll try giving it a shot on my own and let you know if I have any issues!
Thanks again!
No problem, thanks!
Hi everyone!
Saving tool from The Netherlands 👇

https://www.saasmanager.io/
Pitch
Modern companies rely heavily on SaaS tools. After payrolling, SaaS costs are often the second biggest expense. We're launching Saasmanager, a tool that’ll help you save up to 30% on your SaaS spend. Full story in our launchblog: https://medium.com/@jaspervanelferen/introducing-saasmanager-229365dceadc
Personal notes
We've just launched Saasmanager. Any feedback/ thoughts/ roasts are very appreciated 😉
Many people don't know they can/need to reduce their costs, maybe because they get used to such a situation. You may try to contact people from /r/SaaS, /r/startups, /r/smallbusiness directly(to suggest your expertise) - those who post/comment. Especially those who mention they have a business.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Sergiy @v8ever, I'll dive into it.
Not much help from me, your case is about emerging awareness to people that "it can be done better". Hope it helps anyway!
bannernote.com - Would love to hear your feedback!
Can't recommend specific threads(quite a niche thing that people don't know they want), but try to contact people from nocode community to recommend your tool.
It looks good!
Sharing a product hunt link because that's the best description we've got https://www.producthunt.com/posts/nonfik

Oh that subreddit map is really cool! Did you make it?
No, it's not me
Hey I am deep I am creating notion Project planner template please check this out
https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Learnanewlang
thanks for helping us bro
Hi! There's a small community where you can share your project and engage with similar requests. Maybe make some demo page where people can actually see the result, it's difficult for them to just buy. Plus, they don't know they need this template if they got a lot of project planning tools(Asana, Trello, and a thousand more).
Don't forget to share in /r/SideProject.

Connecting digital nomads and remote workers around the world
Well, for a community I can't recommend specific threads. I'd recommend engaging in almost all discussions on these subreddits(giving advice): digitalnomad, remotedaily, remotework. Reply to the relevant posts there and suggest trying out your community. Share interesting content there. If people see you're a good guy with a good community, they will go there. Now, AFAIK, the only community they would recommend is NomadList.

Hi! I left the feedback on that post.
You may PM the commentators here, they all mentioned they bought a domain, hence may try out your product:
Those who suggest buying one:
Also, as you probably did, you can DM Twitter people who joke about domains.
Don't forget about the general tips on this post.
Really great help! I'll keep those for after I've revisited my MVP.
Glad it helped!

Hey everyone!

It's a real-time notifications component that you can easily embed in your project/website. You'll save hundreds of hours of development and maintenance of an important app component to help keep your users engaged and notified about recent events in your app.
You will send the notifications via our library, API, or the browser. Notifications are delivered in real-time, and there are no dependencies!
It is currently geared more towards Laravel developers, but we'll be soon expanding to other frameworks as well!
Can't recommend specific threads, but try to PM users on such subreddits(those, who post/comment and have a product) to ask them if they may be interested. It's quite a niche thing, so many SaaS owners don't know they may need it/it'll simplify their coding.
Hi Sergiy,
https://intribe.co
Aiming to be out of beta next month, intribe is a partnership marketing platform and community.
You can think of it like 'Tinder for brand partnerships' or like a niche LinkedIn focussed on partnerships...without all the spam.
Cheers,
Sven
Share your platform on subs I mentioned in this post(general tips), like you did here. Yet it's some niche thing that many people may not understand, so I wouldn't expect many to come from there.
What I've noticed is not many people talk about partnership marketing on Reddit. I'd suggest making some content about it - what it is, how to use, case studies and so on, to develop awareness of people that may be interested in the topic. Try it on these subreddits:
Don't be self-promotional though. Put links in relevant places that fit the context.
Mockswitch.com
Mockswitch is an API platform for continuous development cycle. Users can build domain based library, document, test and integrate APIs using realistic controlled rule based mock services.
Share your tool on /r/webdev. Also, share on related subs.
Hello forever - I am confused about what to do with mockswitch - should I pursue it more or make it open source as its a dev tool. What would be your suggestion ?
You should find your users first! Do they like the tool as it is now? If not, what's missing? Build/polish those features and iterate again - ask for feedback.
Is it a tool you built for yourself? If so, it's a bit simpler because you're a user too. And if you have some suggestions, apply them, make the tool better and there will be such people like you who would use it.
If it's hard for you to find users, try different channels, ask for feedback from various developers. See your conversion rates. If they low - try adding more examples, clarify what the tool does, show it. Record a GIF, video, anything that will explain it awesomely.
As for different channels, monitor various programming-related subreddits to engage in the right time when someone asks a related question to your tool.
Can't suggest something about the tool itself because I'm not your target user, unfortunately!
Thanks

Will give it a shot, thanks for doing it!
I hope it helps. If not really, do let me know, we'll figure out different user intentions and use cases I might miss.
My project is https://instatuts.herokuapp.com
The project is a reactjs newsletter which delivers reactjs tutorials to your email. I do a react project and send you the tutorial via email. The goal of this newsletter is to help people who struggle with react development to at least have a starting point when creating their projects so they dont waste time searching the internet. What i have noticed is a lack of full stack projects made in react and i used to struggle because of it so i decided to take the initiative by building many projects in react and sharing how i did it. I am also working to make an interactive learning platform for this initiative to improve learning react .The project is still a work in progress.
Suggest your newsletter here, here(maybe PM the author), here.
Look at /r/learnprogramming from time to time to do the same for people who ask related questions.
Thank you will look into it
No particular threads, but take a look at data engineering related subreddits to find specific use cases your platform supports(replicate data, etc.), to suggest trying out the product.
Thank you v8ever. I will try to build the customer base through subreddits too.
https://currsive.com
We believe that people who write can express their thoughts more clearly through audio blogs. That's what we help them do. They write and we use technology to generate a podcast that they can share with their audience :)
I can't recommend some specific posts/comments to engage in. Instead, I'd suggest taking a look at blogging subreddits on Reddit and PM active people/authors asking to try out your product. Those people have blogs with a great probability and may like to try a different approach of blogging.
Thanks a lot v8ver. I would surely try that!

We're a passwordless auth provider that focuses on WebAuthn (Web biometrics) as our foundation so we can make sure our users get fast and secure login. While we're building this our aim is to eventually build an internet where a user signs up once and never again
Reply to this post(author and people) to suggest your thing(maybe some of them build a business/side project).
Here is a thread about your competitor.
thanks for sharing this! This is just passwordless email auth but we are more focused on the WebAutb part (web biometrics)
No problem. That's quite a hard intention to identify for me. I mean, I don't know how people usually search for such a solution. Do you have some suggestions?
Thanks for being so honest about it!
Usually, I've noticed is that if any devs are starting any projects or working on a website they require some sort of authentication for their users to sign in.
If you know any friends or people starting stuff then they could try us out as their auth provider. Happy to even give discounts :)
Checklisty - https://checklisty.xyz

Sorry, couldn't find your targets, however, you may take a look at the sneakers-related communities & footwear to monitor where there are brands that wan't fight copies. Maybe they don't talk about such pains(I didn't find) there. Quite a niche.

Turn Your Recipes Into An Online Business: Step-by-Step Guide (https://mitraraman.gumroad.com/l/foodbevbusinessguide).
Have you ever wondered how to turn your famous home recipe into an actual product + business? From an ex-D2C food founder who grew the company from her kitchen to $10K+ MRR and shipping nationwide, here is a step-by-step guide that goes into every detail from forming a business entity to making your first online sale.
This one is difficult because info products' authors should be trusted by a person/community, I won't find you buyers that can read and buy instantly.
I'd suggest being active in relevant communities that aim for potential business owners.
It is tough, mainly though because start-up founder communities and D2C / CPG communities are pretty different. Do you have suggestions for where to find the latter?
Maybe this article would be useful to you.

We're still in the pre-launch phase, Its a product to create digitalized checklist and inspection. And provide analytics based on inspection attempted by the assigned employees, so that manager can understand where the actual problem is.
We are currently working on improving the analytics feature.
This is neat, I used to work for some water utilities that would maybe use this for network asset inspections, meter verification runs or COSHH risk assessments. Just a thought, you could try reaching out to any locally, mentioning what I have written above.
Not explored that market yet, currently focused on hotels. Will definitely look more about water utilities industry.
Thanks
A large thread on Zebra software, but I'm not sure it does auditing too. If it's relevant, you may message commentators and the author and suggest your software.
There's /r/HomeInspections community where you can see relevant questions and PM people, again, not sure if it's relevant. What do you think?
What are your competitors?
Yes, the reddit's HomeInspection community will be helpful for reaching out to relevant customer's and improve/ add features according to posts.
Not sure if you are aware of the competitors, they basically come under Quality Management software.

One more subreddit to take a look at.
Couldn't find more, unfortunately. Thanks for the list, it was helpful to find this one sub.
You may try defining the user intent - what your target customer will write about(in a post or a comment) that you can find? It's difficult to me, I don't understand this niche. Try Olwi yourself and see what keywords work. It has a free plan with enough searches(I guess). Anyway, you can ping me for help.
Thanks for the help

There are Build in public posts in /r/SaaS, where you may share your key points(from articles or lessons, insights) with the target community. Attach a link to your newsletter in the comments, for example, like "I'm posting such articles weekly here if you prefer email updates".
Also, if you see someone asks for help, comment giving good insights, and provide a link to your newsletter if it suits the post/comment context.

https://wannabe-entrepreneur.com/coworking/
The WBE Space is a remote co-working space for entrepreneurs and freelancers that are lacking the team spirit and office vibe of working in a bigger company.
Community building is difficult. I'd go with creating posts about mental health and the issues/pros with remote work, your insights on that + a link to a community if it fits the context(find the right context!). Share some great stuff with them!
Also, comment a lot on relevant posts on the subs I'll attach below. Some of them go to your profile and see the link. Sometimes you'll put the link in a comment itself(if it fits the context).
The subreddits where you may do that are here.

DDYOR is basically a reliable source of guides, reviews & articles about the latest NFT games, Crypto Projects and tokens.
Seems to be an easy one: you can PM active users on these subreddits, many of them may like to subscribe.
Another approach is to post some issues from your newsletter on the subs above, then add a link to your newsletter in a post or in the comments(read the subreddit rules to know if it's fine to include links).
I'd add a link to your past issues on the landing near "join waitlist" to know what to expect.

https://skilledup.life - free talent for tech startups
We have 3,094 volunteers (free talent) from 72 countries.
We charge £30/month from bootstrapped tech startups to provide access to our platform. Once subscribed, you can onboard any amount of Volunteers you need. We have an increasing number of professionals signing up to volunteer (they have a day job). From bankers to solicitors to even tech CEOs who have exited.
Typically a volunteer commits for 1hr+ per day for 3 months. They can help you with product design, development, user acquisition, conversion, support, HR and anything you can think of.
Hey @v8ever why not sign up. That's the easiest way for me to acquire a customer. We can call it quits at that point, so you can go and help everyone else here.
I've seen your product before. We can even help you acquire more users. What do you say buddy? Win Win!
From what I understand those volunteers are a workforce, but why do they do it for free? I don't understand how it helps in growing users. Or, you mean they help grow because they do some related tasks on the issue?
It's non intrusive - 1hr+ per day for 3 months. So some of them have jobs, some are University students, etc.
We solve the problem of how do you get Experience. They are on www.skilledup.life purely for gaining Experience and Skills. Not for money.
When you separate money from Experience, you find people who are craving for that Experience, which they know can help them with career progression.
Every tech company needs to acquire users - Our Volunteers help us in this task. See my team at www.skilledup.life/about

Tracardi is an open-source system that supports customer engagement and enhances the consumer experience. Tracardi is not a marketing automation system, although it does have some elements of marketing automation. Tracardi is intended for anyone who carries out some type of customer interaction, be it through sales or service delivery.
How tracardi performs its services
Tracardi collects data from customer journeys. The data is in the form of events that have context and event data. Each event is assigned to a profile that is maintained throughout the period of interaction with the customer, incl. using a website or mobile application.
Customer data is aggregated in the profile. The method of attaching data to the profile is defined in the graphical editor, which is part of the Tracardi system.
You can use Tracardi to track each customer's interaction with the company. The information you collect may cover various consumer decisions, including

Have and search through all your notes and bookmarks in one place and share collections of your notes. All...in our visual bookmarking platform.
Oh, that's the hard case - no explicit users intent to search for such a system. Take a look at relevant subreddits and suggest your tool when it fits the context. E.g. "What note-taking app do you use?" and you reply with your project.
Don't forget about the general tips from this post :)

It is a marketplace for npm packages. Developers can buy/sell nodejs libraries
It can be a thread like What is an "enjoyable job" worth to you?, so you may reply there that it's nice building packages for money.
I can't find programmers who search for charging money for packages explicitly. But they have a clear intent: earn money. So you could monitor posts about money/salary/what-to-do in these communities.
Also, you may try to publish tutorials on how to make the first package that people can buy on such places as dev.to, codementor.io. And see the general tips on this post too!

It's an open-source chat app that doesn't save messages anywhere, ever. It's like live chat, your history is active as long as you are in the conversation.
It's difficult with new chat apps because a few search for new solutions explicitly.
You may try to find people who are concerned about some concepts that popular messengers employ poorly. Like privacy.
Also, publish a post with your app to such subreddits as SideProject to collect feedback and maybe attract some users.
Hi, I just shared our project here https://www.indiehackers.com/post/from-all-in-one-collab-to-project-mgmt-ama-72f2a4fd6e
Hope to hear from you soon to see about the users =)
Hi!
I figure it's pretty useful for folks here who are looking to fire up a new SaaS, but outside of very specific sites and very specific contexts, I struggle with finding ways to promote it. There are definitely subreddits and Slack spaces that service essentially exactly my customers, but they're all (quite reasonably) sick to death of people coming in and trying to pitch to them.
On Reddit, it's necessary to not be self-promotable. But it's fine to put a link to your service if it fits the context. For example, if someone asks "how can I develop my website/SaaS faster?", you may reply with your insights and suggest your tool. Or, you may message the author directly.
In posts like Advice on what languages / frameworks to use to build website, you may comment on what tech you would choose, based on what things. And, you may drop a link.
On some subreddits, there are feedback posts every week, or, Showoff Saturday where you can promote your thing, and similar threads(like Promote your business).
Other relevant posts:
Subreddits to monitor:
https://www.nolines.online/
It's a queue management webapp.
Currently thinking targeting SMEs, particularly laundromats or similar niches.
Admittedly, the landing page doesn't do a good job of explaining the product yet. I'll improve that in the future!
Could you provide some examples and describe what problem does it solve? I couldn't understand from the landing page :(
Yup, I'm aware the landing page isn't clear :(
Basically, it's a web app that serves as a queue management service for businesses. For example, queues in laundromats or barbershops, maybe banks if I get that far. Instead of physically queueing, the customers can know if it's their turn via their phones. I hope that explains it!
Yes, it helps, thanks.
Some relevant posts(reply and/or PM the authors/commentators to suggest your solution):
I didn't find much, but I hope you find it useful. If you know of more use-cases, and specifically, what kind of pains business owners try to fix(except "physical queues" pain), I might try to find more.
Thank you for the help! 😊
https://chromeextensionideas.substack.com/
It's a newsletter where we share pre-validated chrome extension ideas.
You may publish your ideas as posts on some subreddits as I did to grow my newsletter. For example, here and on related communities.
Thanks :)
I hope it helped. If not really, ping me and we'll figure out more!
Thanks for doing this, Sergiy!

It's a digital anonymous employee suggestion box for companies
I have built the MVP and trying to figure out the best channels for reaching out to prospective customers.
You're welcome!
Some relevant posts:
I'd suggest looking at /r/humanresources and similar subreddits, specifically to questions related to Employee Engagement, Retention & Satisfaction, where you may reply and PM authors with a potential solution - ask their employees anonymously what do they like and hate.
Thanks, Sergiy for the tips!
Question.to.
Not launched yet, but you can reserve your username. Question allows you to receive questions from your users and display the answers beautifully on your website, or you can link directly to your hosted question.to Q&A page. 100% SEO friendly.
This is cool, thanks for your time 🙏
Could you please provide more examples/use-cases of it? My thought process is that if my users have common questions, I could just add the section of answers. Just as usual text.
Example use cases:
-Share your personalised Question.to URL to receive questions (could be on Twitter etc)
-Embed the Q&A's on your landing page, could be for your homepage, pricing or e-commerce store (as a few examples)
-Create a Q&A page solely from your Question.to Q&A embed, with the ability to receive new questions from users
Glad I searched IH before posting. I was thinking of building something like this.
My use case is: I'm building a data dashboard for consulting client. I want their staff to be able to ask questions about different graphs & charts. I then want other staff viewing the dashboard to see other employee questions and respective answers.
Unfortunately in looking at your product it doesn't quite do that. It seems like the questions are only answer-able on the back-end with now way to answer questions or display to others.
Hope that feedback/insight helps,
Alright, but what problems does this solve? I'm thinking of Q&A sessions and having FAQ sections embedded(however, the usual text will be fine too).
It just makes the process of collecting questions and answering them, then showcasing on your site easier. It's easy for us as devs to slap some text on a page, but if you're a marketer then it gets a bit trickier to manage/implement. That's why having an easy to embed process makes it easier to manage overall.
The use case is especially more prevalent for ecommerce. For example, if you go on an Amazon product, each product will have it's own Q&A section.
I'd suggest looking at ecommerce-related subreddits, but I can't find people who need it explicitly, which is fine, but I couldn't think of their intents of searching for such a solution. Sorry.
Whoa this is cool, thank you!

Get product feedback screencasts from your SaaS users.
As a product manager, I've had to schedule so many follow up meetings because text-based feedback lacked context.
Videos provide more insight into why users want a feature or what the repro steps are for a bug.
You may showcase your product by actually providing your feedback, so you record a video and send it to the author in posts like this. However, your product is on the waitlist stage, so it's not really possible now I guess.
The other way is to reply to the relevant posts on /r/SideProject. By relevant, I mean the ones where website owners might actually put the code into their websites to improve the feedback process. You could PM the authors to ask to try out your tool(or, join a waitlist). Often, they post on this sub to get feedback, so you could suggest a better flow.
And, you could monitor these subreddits where your target users hang out:
So good, thank you! Along the lines of my thoughts. Even without my product not ready I can just record looms giving people feedback on their landing page or products.
Much appreciated!
You're welcome! Let me know if I can help more.
https://www.frameapart.com/
It's an iOS app that allows a user to recreate photos by aligning the same perspective and keeping the same aspect ratio
I was targeting small businesses that would like to show off their services by shooting a before&after and sharing it on social media. So in a way it's a content creation tool.
An interesting concept. The first use case you've mentioned on the website is comparing visual progress, which can be a great niche. You could even niche down to, say, fitness people, like in this post. You may monitor posts and reply to them in these subreddits(e.g. "good progress! You may also use this app for convenience"):
Another thing I see it might go is for make-ups and stuff. So, it'd be simpler for girls to compare the results and publish the photos on Instagram, for instance:
And so on.
I couldn't think of other use-cases. If you want more, let me know with some examples of how one may use your app, so I may search for more.
Hey!
I am working on ssh2.me -- helps you to manage ssh connections and have quick access to them from your terminal.
-- Custom subdomain for each ssh connection
-- Easy integration to your shell(bash & zsh so far), open interactive manager with shortcut
-- Fuzzy search with fzf that helps you to get ssh connection from some memorable pattern
--Context grouping: logically group your connections into projects(that could be used when searching)
Hi , cool app! i would really want to know where you are storing the cli package and how are you monetising it. It would be of great help. @yaneya
I am building a cli app as well.
Hey, thank you!
Well it is very hard to promote because dev/devops niche very specified -- hard to sell something that we could do in our own, but i am still trying.
Installation process pretty clear: you run small snippet(1 liner) this download and save small bash/zsh script snippet after this trivial manipulation you could use app from your CLI, so it is saved on client machine.
If you will have more questions you could me reach on twitter as well and write me in DM.
Hi! Unfortunately, can't find you users(it's difficult to imagine how users would search for such a solution besides something like "I want to better organize my SSH connections", some are used to the .ssh config files where you may connect with "ssh <server>" and they don't think of anything more), but I may suggest these subreddits:
In the Tools & Info for Sysadmins - SSH Library, Network Security Tip, Deployment Toolkit & More you may add a comment with your tool, and/or PM the people there to ask to try out the tool.
Thank you! Will definitely check those subreddits!
You're welcome and I wish you luck with marketing your project!
Hi, thank you so much for the initiative.
Hi! You may take a look at my comment about a tool in a similar domain as yours here.
It's tricky with forms because users usually don't look for such things(from what I see), they want to fix some specific problem, like collecting users' feedback, so in the end, their solution is an online form builder. What do you think people are looking for where your tool can be their solution? What kind of pains do they have.
Hi,
Thanks a lot for the help. I think my target customers are people who do not want to set up and pay extra for Zapier to get form notifications in other apps.
Do you suggest pivoting to a form builder?
No! It's just difficult for me to search for your target users because I spent much less time than you in this domain(form builders), so I don't understand their true intentions. And you know some of them, which you mentioned.
You may try to search yourself on olwi.xyz or Reddit, or in google with "<your query> site:reddit.com" and see what you can find with those. If you need help, let me know, we'll figure out some keywords.
I'm game :) I don't have a proper elevator pitch yet, so here are the key parts from my current landing page.

I appreciate any help you can provide!

I love to share the 3D Metal Printer project: www.patreon.com/3dmetalprinter
Is a low cost 3D Metal Printer for developing and low income countries, using an electron beam to sinter the metal powder
The goal is to make 3D Metal Printing more affordable to the general public, hospitals, small institutions, organizations and companies around the world. Specifically for developing and low income countries. This project fills a gap that no open hardware successfully fills.
3D Metal Printing is an impactful tool. Making it more accessible will democratize science, engineering and empower people. This low-cost hardware will be able to accelerate innovations in and lower barriers to scientific research.
For hospitals located away from major cities, 3D Metal Printing will be practical when supplies run low. This is especially important in farming communities where patients from the nearby fields who come in with work-related injuries could be outfitted with custom splints that are 3D Metal Printed as needed.
Entrepreneurs will benefit from this project. Especially early stage entrepreneurs that are not yet financially secure enough to easily afford a 3D Metal Printer. Increasing access for these entrepreneurs ensures greater representation and impact, paving pathways to get these deep-tech innovations more efficiently into the market. Adopting open-source approaches play a key role in this process. The 3D Metal Printer design, plans, videos, schematics will be open and free for any person in the world.

Hello,
My project is Securify TFA API: https://securify.developer-service.io/
Current 2FA APIs are difficult to use, costly, and use non-secure methods like SMS and e-mail.

Securify TFA allows developers to easily integrate 2FA in their websites/applications in less than 10 mins with easy 3 API calls.

Interesting. I like the landing.
There are usual subreddits where you may ask for feedback and maybe get some users(probably you know them):
I specialize on Reddit here, but I couldn't find people who need it. I've searched for the potential keywords people may use when searching in Google. I found "remove tattoo from photo online free" with 10-100 searches(US, UK, Canada, Australia) monthly only :( Same for "remove tattoo photo editor", "apps that can remove tattoos".
Sorry, I can't seem to find the platforms where your specific case can attract people. I thought about photography/editing forums, so it may be a potential channel. You may gather some such forums and search for the related term. Like in this post.
