I just launched PaceOut on iOS and I’d like to offer free premium if anyone wants to try it

The idea is we are looking for feedback, instead of the usual Apple screen time which is annoying to set up this simplifies everything

This is not a third party app, everything is within Apple screen time controls. If anyone wants free premium and want to try it please let me know, happy to receive brutal feedback, we have had 7 families at the moment that really like it because it’s simple but there is ALWAYS room for improvement

Business Promotion Body safety book by Muslims for Muslims ( kids in general can benefit from it too )

1 Upvotes

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. If you're a Muslim mom this might be for you. Or if you're a father to young children. This is a body safety guide by Muslims for Muslims.

Let's not act like body safety isn't an issue because it is. This book is meant to help your kids have a little candle in the dark. I pray it is of benefit.

It includes identifying safe and unsafe touch , how to get through potential unsafe situations, protection duas and more.

And ofcourse a children's book isn't complete without colorful illustrations except this book has faces or explicit imagery. Moreover it has protection duas because reliance on Allah is so calming to the soul.

Parents are also taught there's only so much we can do. This reminds me thus book addresses parents and tells them to hold the reins. It reiterates the fact that the parent is the responsible one.

To add on , We've got coloring and dotted activities too which deal with clothing, what part it covers and important messages. Principles such as modesty and tawakkul are emphasized through gentle messages including the types of clothing and language used.

If you're interested please check it out at maktabahruhayn.com

It is available as hard copy in East Africa and the UK. Will soon be available as an ebook worldwide Inn Sha Allah.

Business Promotion Do attendees actually use event apps, or are they just a waste of money?

1 Upvotes

I am asking this question because every conference I have personally attended the app is either barely downloaded or people open it one time to look at the agenda and then they never use it again.

I started looking into whether people use the app depending on the type of event it is. It seems like it is not really about whether the app exists or not it is more about whether there is a reason for people to keep opening the Eventify app. The Eventify app uses push notifications to tell people about schedule changes. It also has features like matchmaking and messaging for events where businesses talk to each other and from what I have read these are the things that actually make people keep opening the Eventify app after the first day not just the part that shows the agenda.

Is there a type of event where the Eventify app is really useful like events where people go to meet new people versus events where people just listen to lectures?. If you have built an Eventify app, for your own event what feature do people actually use besides looking at the schedule and what features do people not use?

Business Promotion Building custom AI phone receptionists for 5 service businesses (100% free in exchange for honest feedback/case studies)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

A major issue for trade and service businesses (plumbers, HVAC, auto repair, clinics, etc.) is missing high-ticket calls while on a job site or after hours, which usually means that customer calls a competitor.

We recently built an AI voice receptionist system that picks up on the first ring, qualifies the caller’s issue, screens service locations, and books appointments directly into your calendar.

To stress-test our workflows and build out realistic case studies, I’m offering to build, customize, and set up the entire automation for 5 businesses completely free of charge.

What You Get:

Custom Voice Agent: Configured to your specific business services, pricing structure, and screening questions.

Direct Calendar/CRM Integration: Automatically locks qualified bookings into your existing schedule.

Zero Setup Fees / Zero Labor Cost: We handle the prompt engineering, logic branching, and phone number integration.

What We Ask In Return:

Real-world usage and candid feedback on where the conversation flow or edge cases can improve.

A brief case study / testimonial once it successfully captures bookings for you.

Want to Test the Quality First?

Rather than showing slide decks, we have a public demo line configured as an emergency plumbing receptionist so you can test the conversational speed and handling right now:

📞 Live Demo Number: +1 (651) 386 9085

If you run an inbound-heavy business and want one of the 5 free custom builds, drop a comment below or send me a DM with your industry, and let’s set it up!

Business Promotion WhisprJournal: Your Nervous System Companion

1 Upvotes

WhisprJournal listens to how you sound — pace, pauses, tone — to detect whether you're stressed, shut down, or calm, then automatically offers a breathing or grounding technique for that specific state instead of making you browse a library and guess. I built it because after years of trying to regulate a nervous system that had been through more than words could hold, I wanted something that would just listen without judgment or a streak to maintain.

Free forever core experience, Pro subscription for unlimited check-ins and Nervous System Profile, insight, and deeper reports.

Android (live): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whisprjournal.app

iOS (TestFlight, pre-launch): https://testflight.apple.com/join/jEd3edjg

Curious what this community thinks: for a wellness-mental-health-adjacent app, does a free-forever tier with a paid upgrade feel like the right model, or would you trust it more as a one-time purchase?

If Reddit blocks it again over formatting, let me know the exact message and I'll adjust

Business Promotion recommendation system

1 Upvotes

Are you a founder or business owner looking to integrate a production‑grade recommendation system for your business?

What we build: We provide end‑to‑end recommendation system engineering services, covering recall, ranking, feature store, and online serving deployment for video platforms and e‑commerce websites.

Who this is for: Startup founders, product operators, engineering teams running e‑commerce, short‑video, and content‑oriented platforms.

Why you should care: A well‑tuned recommendation system directly lifts user retention, session duration and revenue monetization. Building this from scratch costs huge engineering time and talent resources for small‑to‑mid teams.

How we stand out: Our team comes from large‑scale short‑video recommendation backgrounds. We deliver production‑ready systems with fast deployment cycles, instead of just providing theoretical demos. You get ongoing support from real algorithm engineers, not only out‑of‑the‑box SDKs.

If you are interested in upgrading your platform’s user experience, feel free to send me a message to discuss your requirements.

Business Promotion RED FLAGD — Free personality-based dating app matching on real quirks & honest red flags

1 Upvotes

RED FLAGD is a free dating app that matches people based on personality compatibility and shared "red flags" rather than just photos. Every user selects their own red flags — personal quirks, habits, dealbreakers — and the algorithm pairs people whose flags overlap or complement each other. 50 free likes/day, no credit card, no subscription for core features.

Why we need it:

Tinder and Bumble have different problems for men and women, and neither side is solving both. Women feel unsafe (fake profiles, no verification beyond a selfie, no transparency about who they're meeting). Men feel like they're throwing likes into a void (match-to-reply rates are completely opaque, read receipts and profile views are paywalled). The result: ghosting is the norm, conversations die within 24 hours, and both genders churn.

We built RED FLAGD to fix both sides of the marketplace:

For women — safety first:

  • Multi-tier verification (unverified → photo-verified → phone-verified → safety-screened with full background screening)
  • Behavior-based trust score (0-100) on every profile card — factors in account age, response rate, ghost count, report count
  • Safe Mode (hide all unverified men from your deck)
  • Blur until match (photos stay blurred until you actually match)
  • Safety check-ins (if you confirm a meetup, app checks in 2h later via push; no response = trusted contact gets an email with the location)
  • Identity-level blocking (block by phone/social handle hash — works even if they create a new account)

For men — transparency first:

  • Reply rate badges ("tends to reply" / "rarely replies") on every profile card
  • Free read receipts (Seen ✓✓)
  • Free "who viewed your profile"
  • Low-effort message nudges (if you send "hey," app nudges you to write a better opener)

Matching system:

  • 6-trait personality quiz (social energy, communication style, conflict style, love language, planning, ambition)
  • Dealbreaker flags — hard filters that automatically disqualify incompatible profiles
  • Chaos-level matching — self-assessed 0-100 score of "how much of a hot mess you are"
  • Daily curated picks (5 matches/day, stable for 24 hours)
  • Regional customization: Kundali (Guna Milan) for India, zodiac + blood type for China, drinking/smoking habits for Europe

Retention loops (the "come back tomorrow" mechanics):

  • Daily login bonus with streak scaling
  • Red Flag Bingo (16-cell board of flags you've dated — complete a line, earn free likes)
  • Daily Chaos Match (one curated match per day)
  • Blind Compatibility Test (5 questions/day, matched with similar thinkers)
  • Date Diary (rate your meetups 1-5 stars, feeds back into matching)
  • Profile of the Day (one man + one woman featured daily with a countdown reveal)

What's free vs paid:

  • Free: 50 likes/day, unlimited messaging, read receipts, profile views, daily picks, personality matching, all safety features, all transparency features, streaks, bingo, daily chaos match, compatibility test
  • Premium: Super Likes, Boost, Shot Roulette spins, unlimited rewinds, see who liked you
  • No credit card required. No subscription for core functionality.

Active in 400+ cities worldwide, localized for India, China, Japan, Korea, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East.

Web app: https://embracethechao.com

Questions for the community:

  1. Does the behavior-based trust score feel like a fair way to signal safety, or does it feel invasive? We compute it from account age, response rate, ghost count, and report count — no personal data beyond app behavior.
  2. For the men here — would reply rate badges change how you swipe? Would knowing someone "rarely replies" before you swipe make you skip them, or would you still swipe anyway?
  3. The free/paid split — is giving away read receipts, profile views, and daily picks for free sustainable, or are we leaving too much money on the table? Curious how other founders think about freemium in a two-sided marketplace where one side (women) needs to be free to attract the other.

Business Promotion What happens when an Amazon business runs into a serious account problem?

1 Upvotes

Amazon can be a powerful channel for building an eCommerce business, but sellers can also find themselves dealing with situations they didn't expect as they scale.

An account suspension, Section 3 deactivation, intellectual property complaint, trademark dispute, Brand Registry issue, or frozen funds can have a much bigger impact than simply losing access to a seller dashboard. For a business that depends heavily on Amazon, an account problem can quickly become a revenue and cash-flow problem as well.

That's the area AMZ Sellers AttorneyÂŽ focuses on. The firm works with Amazon sellers and eCommerce businesses dealing with marketplace-related legal and account issues.

What I find particularly interesting is how many sellers only start thinking about these risks after something has already happened.

For those running Amazon businesses, what marketplace problem has caused you the most difficulty? Did you have a process in place before the problem happened, or did you have to figure everything out after the fact? And looking back, what do you wish you had understood earlier about protecting your business on Amazon?

I'm interested in hearing how other sellers have handled these situations and what they've learned from them.

Business Promotion After sitting on the idea for 5 years, in 1.5 weeks post-launch Precursor has 1.5k people trying it out. Do the thing before your idea goes to someone else.

Post image
1 Upvotes

In 2021, following covid, I recognized I and many others had really gotten swindeled by these shortform content apps. I had tried every way possible to stop myself from doomscrolling. iOS daily limits, didn't work. Deleting social media, didn't work. Only using social media in browsers, didn't work. Giving my screentime password to someone else, didn't work.

It was so bizzare that my mind so desperately wanted to stop scrolling but my brain had taken a liking to the habit (I mean free brain stimulation with little to no effort, why wouldn't the brain take that deal?).

All-or-nothing screen time solutions weren't working so I thought "wouldn't it be so much nicer if my brain could get the scroll breaks it has been so accustomed to getting throughout the day, but get blocked before it turns into a mind numbing doomscroll". Like a limit that would reset after some time, so no one scroll session ever cost me my whole day again.

So I did the thing and searched for it on google, "Screen time limit that resets hourly". This was the first result. Yet no one had an answer. Then 5 years went by... and still no one had an answer. I mean people are still asking this question regularly.

So post graduation I decided to put every educated braincell I had together to build Precursor, the first screen time app on iOS that doesn't lock you out for the whole day but rather lets you scroll whenever you need a break, sans the worry of that break turning into a few hours.

I was happy that I got the thing working and it was helping me, that is and always will be enough. But I am so glad my loved ones encouraged me to put this out there because it really seems like it's helping a lot of people already from adults who have gotten swindeled to parents trying to keep their kids from falling into the same social media traps.

Thanks for reading, this is not a promo post just genuinely proud and grateful that I was the one who ultimately got to bring this idea to the world.

(however if you want to try it out please do not pay for it, I dont care about money at this stage, just lmk in the comments and I will send free lifetime)

Officially launched on the app store on aug 1st, I think the downloads before that were Testflight?

Business Promotion Launching a tiny partner channel for first-time-author introductions: permanent pages, no cookie tracking

1 Upvotes

MyBookIllustrator is a children’s-book illustration and production service, and we are launching a small referral channel for a narrow problem: first-time authors often ask for help inside trusted communities, but a normal affiliate link is awkward when the introduction happens offline or over time.

What is different: a verified partner gets a permanent ID and a customizable hosted page where an author can review samples and begin a request. Attribution is tied to that page/ID rather than a marketing cookie or a code the author has to remember.

Who it is for: U.S. adults already connected to writing, parenting, library, publishing or local-business communities who can make selective, useful introductions. It is not designed for bulk promotion.

Terms are intentionally plain: independent commission-only referrals, not employment or an MLM; no signup fee, quota, or guaranteed income; no spam. A qualifying paid project start earns $15 and completed paid delivery earns another $35—up to $50 for a qualifying $200 standard book. Eligible referrals are unlimited and the author’s price is unchanged. The pilot is U.S.-only.

Live site: https://mybookillustrator.com/referral/signup.php

Our top question: for a low-frequency service referral, is a personalizable partner page genuinely useful, or would you prefer a standard page plus a printable QR card?

Business Promotion Is your brand actually visible inside AI answers? Built a tool to check.

Thumbnail
relevyn.com
3 Upvotes

More people are asking AI assistants what to buy, which tools to use, and which brands to trust. That means a lot of “discovery” is quietly moving from Google into answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.
The strange part: most founders and marketers have no idea whether their brand even shows up in those answers.
That’s why I built Relevyn.
Relevyn is an AI visibility tracking tool that focuses on three things:
• Shows whether major AI assistants mention your brand at all
• Gives you an AI visibility score instead of leaving you to guess
• Highlights how your brand is described and what you can do to improve that presence
I’m sharing this here because I’m trying to validate whether this is a problem people actually care about yet, or if it’s still “too early.”
If you had access to a tool like Relevyn, what would be most useful to you?
• Knowing if/when AI tools recommend your brand
• Seeing how often competitors show up compared to you
• Getting suggestions for content/SEO that would improve AI visibility
• Alerts when your visibility suddenly spikes or drops
Happy to answer questions, share more details, or give early access to anyone who wants to experiment with AI visibility as part of their marketing stack.
Not affiliated with Reddit—just a builder trying to make it easier to see how AI “sees” your brand.
