Orty
AI outreach tool for freelance video editors
Quick backstory: I'm a freelance video editor. For months I did the classic thing, scroll Instagram/YouTube, guess who might need an editor, send a generic email, hear nothing back.
So I built Orty. Drop in a screenshot of someone's profile, get a 1-10 score on whether they're actually a fit for your editing style, and if they are, it drafts the outreach email. If not, it tells you to skip it.
Used it to send 25 real emails last week. Not a hypothetical, that's what actually happened when I started using it on myself.
Launched it as a $29 one-time desktop app, local-first, bring your own free Groq/Gemini API keys, no subscription. Just went live on Product Hunt too, got some genuinely useful feedback there, including someone who caught a real flaw in how I was presenting the fit score (leaning too hard on the raw number instead of treating it as a rough signal), which I'm folding into the next update.
Still very early, solo, bootstrapped. Happy to answer anything about how it works, the tech stack, or the outreach problem in general.
