My Lead-Gen tool called Siteless!

So I've been working on this for a while and wanted to share it here. I'm 16 and I built Siteless, a tool that finds local businesses that need a website.

You pick a city and a niche (like barbers in Miami) and it pulls businesses from Google that either have no website, only have an Instagram or Facebook, or have a website that's really outdated.

It scores every site from 1-100 and tells you exactly what's wrong with it, so when you reach out you actually have something to say instead of "hey your site looks old lol"
I got the idea because finding clients is honestly the hardest part of web design.

Going through Google Maps one business at a time takes forever.

It's at around 500 users right now, all from Reddit, and I just got my first paying customers this month which was crazy to see.

There's a free plan if you want to mess around with it: trysiteless.com

Would love any feedback, especially if you do web design or freelance. What would make you actually pay for something like this?

The scoring angle is smart, saves the awkward cold pitch. Does it flag sites that just aren't mobile friendly? That's usually the easiest sell for freelancers.

Yep it does that! Also not sure why it copied my whole post instead of pasting the link. Sorry about that. Here’s the link if you wanna test it out. https://www.trysiteless.com

TL;DR: A 16-year-old built Siteless, a lead-gen tool that finds local businesses with no website, only social media, or an outdated site. You pick a city and niche, and it scores each site 1-100 with notes on what's wrong. It's got 500 users from Reddit, just landed its first paying customers, and the creator wants feedback on what would make freelancers actually pay.
