What do you think of this idea?

It's built to 'scratch my itch'. Looking forward to your feedback.

    I think this could be a good idea, signed up for early access .

    I've built ROI calculators at 3-4 companies now. At the bigger ones, I wouldn't use this tool just because we need full control over the experience, but for smaller teams, this would work well.

    I think the landing page design could use some work and definitely a screenshot, or even better, a live example of a calculator.

    Some potential audience targets:

    • Marketing teams - build ROI calculators as well as interactive assessments (like a calculator but doesn't return numbers, returns a category/grade/score).
    • Sales - build custom calculators to close deals, without engineering help.
    • Real estate - just an idea, but for example allowing real estate agents to send a calculator to clients that they can use to calculate closing fees, cost per square foot etc.

    Good luck on the indie hacker journey!

      Thank you so much - your suggestions are super helpful.

      You're right - It is targeted towards smaller teams and small businesses.

      I'm updating the website right now, with better design and a live example. Thank you!
