Building Mr. Popup: AI popups without the complexity
Hey Indie Hackers 👋
I’m an indie founder and developer, and I just launched Mr. Popup, a tool to create popups with AI in seconds.
I built it after getting frustrated with popup tools that felt slow, overcomplicated, or required too much setup for simple use cases.
Mr. Popup is still early and I’m building it in public. My goal is to keep it fast, simple, and focused on real-world use.
I’d love feedback from other founders:
• Does this solve a real pain for you?
• What would you expect from a tool like this?
Happy to answer any questions 🙌

Congratulations on your launch. It looks impressive! What channels are you exploring to attract early users?
Thanks! Right now I’m keeping it pretty simple and scrappy.
Most of the early traction is coming from:
• Sharing demos and learnings on LinkedIn
• Conversations and feedback loops on Reddit and indie-builder communities
• A bit of Twitter/X, mostly showing the product in action instead of pitching
I’m intentionally avoiding paid ads for now. I want early users who are willing to give real feedback, break things, and tell me what actually matters. At this stage, learning > scale.
Curious to hear what’s worked best for you when launching early products 👀
I love your approach, keeping it scrappy and focusing on learning is exactly how the best early products grow. Reddit and indie-builder communities offer invaluable, honest feedback, but the challenge lies in consistently putting your posts in front of the right audience without coming across as spammy.
This is where I can assist founders like you. I specialize in Reddit marketing for early-stage products, crafting posts that foster genuine engagement, attract early testers, and generate actionable feedback, all without relying on paid ads. I’ve helped other founders turn casual community interactions into insightful feedback that shapes their products.
If you're interested, I can create a step-by-step Reddit strategy tailored to your launch that complements what you’re already doing on LinkedIn and X/Twitter. It’s lightweight, high-impact, and focused entirely on attracting early users who truly care.
Would you like me to draft that plan for you?
