Would love some feedback 🥸
Hi all!
Copybranch is getting ready for a v1.0 soft launch, and I'd love for fellow indie hackers to give me any honest feedback: https://www.copybranch.com/
Copybranch is a text editor for writing landing page copy while wireframing layout.
It comes from my experience regularly building landing pages for side projects and at my startup. I realised there's a huge missing step in the process of designing and building websites; by observing that so many people (myself included) tend to design/build their pages, then fit copy into their design. Really, design should be heavily influenced and guided by the copy (as the copy is what sells).
I built Copybranch to help builders/marketers plan and create their landing page copy more effectively.
Nice product direction — copy-first wireframing solves a real workflow gap.
One conversion tweak I’d test: make the hero lead with a concrete outcome + audience ("Write higher-converting SaaS landing page copy in minutes") and follow immediately with one before/after example from a real page. That usually reduces "looks cool but not sure for me" drop-off.
I also like your branch concept. You could frame it as: "Draft 3 positioning variants side-by-side before you design" — that benefit is memorable.
If useful, I can run a quick 5-point landing page teardown here: https://roastmysite.io/?src=external_manual_nonhn_ih_copybranch_feedback_20260328_c1_usd_presell_hv
Hey Daniel, I had a look on your product and honestly, it‘s great! IMHO you are quite late for a „soft-launch“ – your page already looks and the product works. 👉 Launch it, and then re-launch, re-launch and re-launch on different platforms with different versions :)
Read this for inspiration (I love this one): https://www.indiehackers.com/post/relaunch-like-a-pro-100-places-to-launch-relaunch-and-list-your-product-7c67875635
Now some more specific feedback:
👉 Add a CTA on the bottom of your landing page (after scrolling)
👉 Allow me sharing the result which I built with my friends/colleagues/co-workers (this would make the product really useful for me)
👉 Future Killer Feature: Allow people directly create one-click landing-pages from the projects on your app.
Good luck on your journey (I‘m starting mine currently as well) 🤗
That's a really great post, thanks for sharing! I like your feature ideas too. Best of luck on your journey mate, let me know if I can help.
thx 💪
Oh btw, re-read your comment and you can already share the links to the pages you write. They're viewable at the same URL as you edit them on (but not editable unless you're the creator).
That's awesome!
Great start and a valuable product idea IMO!
I played with the app, super easy to use.
#1 - I think you need more components
#2 - When you add a component to the page instead of "Say something...." I think it should have default content that makes sense for each section.
It's always easier to edit something that start from a blank screen.
https://tailwindui.com does a really good job of this with their pretend Workation app and the copy inside each component.
Once you've added more components, and default copy, people will be able to pop pages into existence with a few clicks and they will make sense immediately.
Appreciate that feedback! Long time Techzing listener by the way :)
Working on new components, very much agreed.
Re: #2, my concern is that I want the experience to be conducive to power users. That is, not force them to delete default content anytime they add a new component. But I think maybe I need to figure out a way to tweak how behaviour works if the user is not logged in, considering them a test user therefore.
But also maybe it is better for all users to start from a premade site and work backwards a bit. I will monitor what other feedback I get with this in mind.
Nice!
Maybe it could be a switch? Add sample content: yes/no
On the topic of pre-built content, you could potentially do something like headlime as an add on - but maybe that's too much of a tangent.
Hi Daniel ! The landing page is great and clear, I just get all the info I wanted in a few minutes.
Small error : I tried to register and I got a fire module error the first time I navigate to /page/new. I went to /pages and back to /page/new and then it worked.
Hi mate! Really appreciate that bug report. Will get on it ASAP!
Loved it, it looks amazing and worked amazing
Appreciate that :) Does it look like something you might use?
As a developer no because i still don't like nocode tools. But as person who wants to build landing page or something similar this is my first choice. Your product is no brainer
Looks great!
Thanks mate!
Very cool, I’ll give this a shot one of these upcoming weeks, as I’m planning to ship a quick project for a community I’m thinking about.
@Haikuka this might be right up your alley
@miguel thanks for the tag!
@danp - I'm going to be brutally honest. I only skimmed your landing page. Because I went straight into the builder and it is AWESOME!!!!!!
Full clarity: Right now I use whimsical to wireframe. If you like, we can have a call and I'll walk you through some layouts. In fact, I'd love to create some layouts + templated prompts for you to use.
Okay, feature request time!
If you wanna chat, pop me a DM/email :) I'll share this with the writers I know!
First of all, you absolutely got me with your first sentence, on the email preview for this comment ahahaha.
Really appreciate the kind words, but more importantly the ridiculously good list of things to build. I would definitely love to have a call about this. It's just about 2am here in Sydney, but I'll shoot you a message on Twitter tomorrow when I am more... awake... and we can figure out a time.
Cheers!
Haha same with that first sentence, I was confused for a sec
Glad to see you two will connect, I’m really enjoying the app, looking forward to seeing what results you have after the call with Claire
Oh, and the A/B test branch feature is really clever!
Also very interested to hear your thoughts @Haikuka, as someone who is an expert in this space :)
Appreciate that mate! Let me know how it goes.
I like the idea. The video explained things really well.
I think the "try it out" page could be more descriptive, or possibly start with a template that has the layout of most home pages so it's easier to get started for the user.
Standard formatting options like bold, italics, underline and link is essential to me for a tool like this.
My last recommendation would be to add a button to copy HTML next to each block.
Really great ideas! Hadn't thought of a HTML copy feature but it makes a lot of sense - was trying to figure out a way to help bridge the gap between this and actual build, that's a nice solution. Thanks mate.
Very cool product! I love the minimal design language and it's surprisingly easy to use.
It's missing some information on how to actually deploy/use the landing page once it's built.
And I'm sure you know this one already, but it needs a lot more components, and responsive features.
Appreciate that mate! Yep, second sprint on components begins soon and responsiveness needs to be figured out.
Very cool! I love the minimal design of the landing page, it's focused and clear, and the video is great. Also, I think it's a good idea to let the user try the app before forcing a signup.
Appreciate that mate!
