Trove
The Web Scraping and Automation API
We launched on betalist recently: https://betalist.com/startups/usetrove
This brought in about 180-250 new visitors.
So far from this traffic we received 15 signups, 0 paying customers.
One thing that I noticed is that these users are leaving quickly, especially since they have to enter their credit card details before using the product (we don't charge on trials unless you upgrade).
I've decided to remove this and now let users in directly so they can try it. Will keep trucking along, we'll see if people are happy with this change.
Pushed some changes which improve response time, mainly due to optimizations made on the backend. Reliability also improved by handling better edge cases in the API.
Planning to add new features such as screenshot generating, and after that will add some form of automation - have to think of the use cases here.
Been showing the product to potential users and sharing online, got our first signup - no paying customers yet.
First we have been using reddit, twitter and soon will start a blog to see if that channel picks up any steam. Hard to tell what channel will work best right now.
https://usetrove.io is ready for production usage! We hope to start onboarding customers asap. Our initial feature set remains small, the goal here being that we want to prove we can scale and maintain high performance.
We're gonna keep improving the platform, optimizing and adding features.
