Hey everyone,
Been working on a fun side project since a bit of time and feel like it's time to check if anyone is interested by it and if there is a market for it.
Built this landing page: FreezingCam.com
Let me know what you think 🙏
PS: Just joined IndieHackers
Hey there!
Here are a few suggestions from me:
I would change the headline from "Freeze your webcam during meetings." to "Who else wanted to freeze their webcam?"
Why?
In my opinion the goal of this headline is to grab attention. It's not even a must to talk about the product already.
Also, with this headline you remove the word "meetings" and like the other members said I think this tool will be used a lot by students or kids.
I would change the supporting text from "FreezingCam is in early access, submit your email to request an invite!" to "Let's face it, we all wanted to freeze our webcam someday. Even if we talk about meetings, school hours or whatever else, FreezingCam can help you."
Why?
In this way we also make it a little bit funny because probably all of us wanted someday to freeze the webcam and in the same time we tell them that tool is great for employees, student or whatever else.
I would change the image from the hero section if possible with a gif or <10 sec video to show users how easy is to freeze your webcam.
Btw, I don't know if you saw but I launched today Roast my SaaS and I'm giving away 5 free slots for IH users.

Hi Sergiu.
Wow. Well Thanks a lot for checking out my product, your suggestions are really helpful, and I plan on following your advices and working more on my landing page.
I just checked out RoastMySaas.today and I really like the concept!
I'm really interested in the product, I'll reach back to you about some other products I'm working on and would like to work with you to improve the marketing and strategy.
PS: Added you on Linkedin.
Thanks again for your very useful tips!
Thank you for your kind words, Kevin! I really appreciate it and I’m glad that I could help you. Feel free to reach anytime even if you just have some questions. I’m happy to help.
Nice! What a cute product!
Maybe shorten the headline just a little from "Make your webcam freeze during meetings." to "Freeze your webcam during meetings."
Or how about "freeze your webcam on command and escape Zoom hell"
Maybe not just "meetings", because I'm guessing a lot of kids with remote classes are going to want this product.
Thanks a lot for checking it out Michele!
Really like the "escape Zoom hell" one, it really represents the idea behind the product x)
Haven't thought about the kids use case, that's actually a funny one!
Yeah. My kids and their friends would definitely want this if they knew about it. Shhhh! Don't tell 'em.
Haha, hopefully they wont hear about it. I'm about to spread the world! x)
Interesting idea.
Maybe add screenshot / details on how the user will freeze the video (keystrokes / some button somewhere )?
What is the plan to convince people that their video data is secure?
Good luck

Hi Chitra!
Yes, I'm planning on adding some more graphics, like a fun little video demonstration.
About the video data, there is no worries to have, the processing of the data is done on the client side.
Thanks a lot for checking it out!

Thanks for taking the time to check it out Anil!
I've already started fixing some of theses issues, and I can't agree more on having some kind of funny demo replacing those 3d people.
As you said it would be funny to have people using it, I'm actually surprised that I've received some good feedback about it lol.
