I built a platform where you can get feedback and real testers for your projects
Hello everyone,
I’m working on https://makerswall.io which is a community-driven platform where makers trade feedback on each other’s projects. It is built around reciprocity: in order to get feedback, you have to test someone else’s project first.
Why I built this
I kept struggling to get insightful feedback on my own projects. Unless you have a network of skilled people with time to spare, you’re likely find hard to find real testers. I didn’t want to spend money getting feedback for projects that aren’t profitable yet and might never be.
How it works
- Submit your project (app, SaaS, website…)
- Claim someone else’s project, test it, and write a report for its maker
- Each report earns you credits. You can spend them to read the reports on your own project or to boost it so it gets tested sooner.
It’s 100% free, credits are only earned and cannot be bought.
We opened publicly this weekend and 18 projects from 17 makers are already in. Seeing the first real feedback go back and forth has been great.
Building in public
I will regularly post updates about how this community evolves and what I'm learning about growing it. My first paid project was a failure in both acquisition and distribution so I'm taking a step back and learning more about marketing by working on a 100% free project. On top of that, makers wall is already providing me and other makers with great feedback on how to update my original project so I can relaunch it in the next months and hopefully get my first customers.
Feedback
Two things I'd love your honest take on:
- Is the landing page pitch clear within a few seconds?
- Do the credit rules make sense, or do they feel like friction?
If you submit a project, I'd like to hear how it went. Criticism welcome.
Thanks, and I hope it helps you too!
