I am extremely hyped to start doing this. My long-term vision is to gather user feedback for your pricing plan and help you make the best decisions.
As a bit of background, when I started working on my side-project, I had no idea how to price it. Then I read a great e-book (Don't just roll the dice by Neil Davidson) and followed the guidance there. I believe there's a lot of potentials to get user feedback before you make one of your greatest choices as an entrepreneur.

Need feedback for my product.
We are live on Product Hunt

Seems super reasonable. My biggest concern would be to see what kind of styles are available. One thing I like about other logo makers is that they let you preview the logo before you purchase. The problem with those is that a lot of times the quality of the logo is kinda junk, haha. If I were to buy from you, I'd want to see all the styles of logos you can create.
What do you mean by "all the styles"?
Yes, we want to create some mockups to let you see the logo in a realistic situation. That's definitely in our roadmap!
Other logo generators provide poor quality logos because they take symbols from free databases and randomly associates them with colors & fonts. We create every design manually and make association based on the company persona!
$99 seem reasonable. I love the design and onboarding, I just felt a bit deceived at the end when I had to create an account to see the propositions (but I guess that's the game).
Ahahah, yes that's the game! But we're working on a new version where you'll see some logos before signin up!
Thanks xavier 🙏🏻
I'm gonna pitch a concept, rather than a product that I'm already working on:
Description: order coffee to-go before even entering the store.
Price: 3-10% of the total order.
The idea is for independent coffee shops to gain more clientele, especially in areas where people are in a rush. Thoughts?
I saw a similar thing this morning, linked to from one of our local coffee shops:
https://www.yocaapp.com/
Seems fairly early in their evolution at the moment.
I think it's a good idea, plus it's validated by the likes of Starbucks, etc - who already have pre-order apps.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

✅ Konvo is a way to have a sharp, 1:1, 5-minute conversation (video chat) with someone about a topic you both love, or watch others do the same.
✅ No idea yet - I would appreciate any feedback on this.
It's a really neat idea! I'd probably try it out
I like it. Couple of questions / comments:
Oh thank you!
Less words - it's kind of online ping tool. I didn't put much attention to this, instead I worked more on screenshots
Regarding price I'm redoing this right now, this is what it will look like https://prnt.sc/srl64l
You're completely right about pricing, I got many questions about this block
I love your website design. Beautiful graphics and copy.
I am currently using Freshping with Zapier, they are free and support up to 50 URL.
How will you compete with them?
Good question 🤔 The more competitors I find, the more demotivating I get :)
Well, checked out their plans. I'm including all features in all plans, like custom HTTP settings, SSL certificate checks etc. I don't like the idea to have different functionality for different plans.
So I guess they get money from users who need these additional features. Like SSL monitoring will cost 36$ paying yearly.
Also I have telegram bot, and I plan to work on this, like make telegram/slack bots powerful.
Anyway, do you need some functions which are not present? I'm currently doing research (yeah, when I've already build my app, I'm doing research, silly enough), so any suggestions are welcome
✅ Remote Leaf

✅ Receive hand-picked remote jobs straight to your inbox.
✅ $10/Month and $100/Year
That doesn't sound feasible. If I want to get remote job listings I'm probably unemployed or don't earn as much as I want to. Why would I pay to see some listings? And 99% of your users will cancel their subscription after they find a job.
Maybe make it a paid job board, so employers can pay to post. But still hand-pick the ones you want to publish.
hmmm, I thought like that so initially but then proceeded to try it out. Now I've got a few customers and based of the feedback people really wanted to pay so that they can save x number of hours on a weekly basis and for curating the personalized remote jobs.
True that people cancel the subscription after finding the job. But somebody is always looking for a job :) always I need to find new customers always. If I start provide better service, maybe I can expect it to grow via word-of-mouth. Let's see.

Hi @catalinionescu, thank you for starting this thread. Here is my product:
Thank you
Hey man, I checked out your landing page and wasn't even sure what the product is. And I have been a developer for 11 years. Is it like MySQL View across a bunch of services? If yes, perhaps make sense to explain what the developers will easily understand. And what's the use case here? What's the problem you are trying to solve?
Hey there, thank you for the comment. This is not aimed at developers. Most small and mid sized companies have <10% developers. The rest of the people are constantly fighting to get access to the right data easily.
Let's take an example - you run a marketplace where you onboard sellers after some verification process. The seller probably fills a multi step form, then your team checks the seller's social status, and reviews submissions. All these (forms, views, moderation) are non-customer facing code.
Another one - lets say your marketing team wants to know how many customers are dropping off because their region is not served by your product but they have shown interest. So drilling into data and seeing users like a funnel flow.
At the growth stage of a startup these are crucial work that affect the team. Investing into these mean spending time on non-customer facing tools. Does that make more sense? Hope that helps.
A good example, since dwata is very immature, is ReTool. Another is Forest Admin.
So basically you are enabling people to have UI for the data they specifically want. Since developers can do this but that costs time & Money, you are trying to aid in building that UI by simply connecting to the data sources' & letting them choose what data needs to be presented and how. Makes sense.
I have used Google Data Studio build a few dashboards for clients.
Good luck to you!
Yes that is correct. But this is way beyond just UI for internal teams.
For example the last German company I contracted for, I re-built their PHP backend for an admin tool that enables them to manage advertisement related specifications.
They are a real time ad network and their staff constantly tweak parameters according to client needs. There are literally hundreds of parameters to tweak, tons of relations.
These tools are being constantly made by companies since there are no generic off the shelf alternatives.
The new-newed admin project was upwards of half million $ is cost.
Great! The world can use your perspective, move forward! :)
I second this.

✅ $9/M
Hey, Pricing seems high. I feel like anyone who actually thinks of using a dedicated logging service has decent traffic. Newbies are not upto this sort of a thing.
And those people are looking to log a lot of things and that's what I feel is off with all these logging services.
Unless you are aggregating and deriving metrics out of those log datas, I wouldn't even consider using any such service. I would prefer to roll out on mine or use an open source script to host it on AWS and simply pay for hosting costs.
That being said, that's how I feel. Totally feel to ignore as long as you can find customers. My intention isn't to bring you down, but just to give you a perspective from my eyes. Good luck with building!
People have a tons of logs. Your service has a weird positioning to me between AppSignal (automatic error and performance monitoring) let's say and Timber.io (logs aggregator).
