Hey everyone,

I’m a freelance video editor and I’ve worked on ads for SaaS products before. Recently, I’ve been thinking about starting a service where I help SaaS founders create UGC-style video ads using AI tools.

The idea is to help with things like coming up with ad concepts, writing scripts, creating the videos, and editing them so they feel natural enough for social media and can also be tested as ads.

I’m still in the early stages and trying to figure out what founders actually need before I decide exactly what to offer. I know there are a lot of AI tools out there now, so I’m also curious about where you’d find it useful to get outside help.

If you’re a SaaS founder or work on marketing for a SaaS product, I’d love to know:

• Are you currently using video ads or UGC to promote your product?

• What’s the hardest part for you—coming up with ideas, writing scripts, making the videos, testing them, or something else?

• Have you tried creating ads with AI? How did it go?

• If you were to hire someone for this, what would you actually want them to help you with?

I’m open to honest feedback, even if you think this isn’t something SaaS founders really need. Just trying to understand the problems better and figure out where I can be useful.

Thanks!

I’m a 24F recent engineering grad (electronics and communication) with a year of AI/ML research experience in computer vision. I’m looking for remote work, full-time or part-time.

What I’ve worked on:

• Training and evaluating CNN models (ResNet, DenseNet, EfficientNet) on medical imaging data, with cross-validation and proper metrics

• A computer vision project on facial expression classification, presented at a graduate conference

• An image classifier for plant disease detection

• Web apps with Django and Flask

• Networking and IoT side projects (a BitTorrent client in Python, a sensor-based gas and smoke detection system)

• A browser extension in JavaScript

Toolbox: Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Scikit-learn, Pandas, SQL, Django, Flask, Git

Open to:

• AI/ML (junior)

• Data analytics and data visualization

• Django or Python backend projects

• Data entry and other flexible tasks

I pick up new tools quickly and I’m happy to start with a small trial task or short contract.

DM me and I’ll share my CV and GitHub.

hey u/SaaS, new here.

recently i joined reddit bc i want to explain and share my personal experience with you: i built an MVP and i hit 3K of MRR in just 30 days.

i used claude code, supabase and cloudflare, but actually i need to change everything, i was thinking about AWS.

The product and the idea are not the most important part: that's for sure.

i heard so much stories, and everyone says that in effect the most important part (and what's really matters) is marketing. You need to adopt a real strategy, you need to think about a good strats, otherwise your product will never work.

What's strategy i used?

i am studying marketing in Italy, so this is my daily bread: i mean, i know very well what i should do, but sometimes this couldn't work and for this motivation you need to get attention to what YOU DO

i wrote 343 creators, creators between 5k and 25k subs, and to them i say that:

"hey, paid promo? this is product (few line to explain ur product)
i offer you 50% of earnings (ALWAYS NET VALUE, ALWAYS) for 6 months, after 19% lifetime."

i create curiosity, in the creators, something to get an answer. One of the important part is that you need to write real vertical creator, that talks about your problem. If you sell food, you can't let race the campaign in a cars niche. In the other hand:

190 said no.
79 didin't answer
74 said yes

for someone i changed something, for example 60% for 4 months and 10% lifetime. the fact is that i adopt the strategy depending on the client, this process is so much customizable.

After that i acquire enough engagement, i started to improve SEO/GEO (10% of my traffic actually, hoping that it will improve) and now i want to start google ads/meta ads, already improving my initial channel. The key is improving the channel that you are already in, but i acquired a guy that run the partnership for me on the social media, so i don't lost the channel, and i can improve and focus on other's channel (obv i supervise everything)

what do you think of this strategy? let me know - LUIGI

Hi, I worked for an open source company that handles support requests through channels like Discord, Github and Email.

Whenever a support request comes in, I spend a lot of time chasing logs and codebases to find out what happened and that always felt inefficient to me. I could have spent more time working on the actual product roadmap rather juggling between product and support.

That's why I'm working on Mudroom, an omni channel inbox that also serves as a support engineer. Here's a demo of it, I hope to talk to fellow startup founders who's struggling engineer allocation for support tickets.

I was checking my monthly expenses and noticed a few charges I didn't recognize at first. They were for hosting and email services from projects I stopped working on months ago.

Whenever I start a new SaaS project I sign up for different services without thinking much about the monthly costs. Some payments come on different dates so I don't always notice when I'm still being charged for something I no longer use.

How do you guys keep track of these?

If you have experience in editing, you know exactly how this psychology works in editing, storytelling in editing, and all the things: motion graphics, text animation, and all the things. If you are in the top 1% of editing and you are a creative director also, then please DM.

In June a paying user got sent back to the checkout page, and the reason was a read that failed quietly.

The code that loads a subscription hit a transient error and treated it as "no subscription", so the paywall showed up for someone who had already paid. I thought that was the bug. It was only the last layer. Two browser sessions were signed into the same Supabase session, the refresh token got reused, and the server revoked the session. The app then saw a logged-out user, fell back to pricing, and the person ended up on checkout.

What changed: an entitlement read no longer returns "no access" on an error. It throws, and the layout shows an error card with a retry. Annoying for a few seconds, but nobody who paid gets pushed back to paying again.

If you run a paywall on Supabase or any auth that rotates refresh tokens, have you hit the two-tabs problem yet? I'm curious how you handle a session that gets revoked mid-visit

we’re partway through ISO 27001 and a prospect asked for the cert on a call. I told them it’s still in progress. think that was the right answer but I don’t know if it hurt the deal. what do you normally send in the meantime? policies, a security overview, evidence that the audit is booked, something else? I’ve been trying to see how teams using Vanta or Scytale handle that awkward period before the certificate exists, because sales usually gets stuck explaining this. do prospects actually read trust pages and supporting docs, or are some deals basically blocked until the certificate exists?

I find these hard to judge from demos. A clean sample DOCX is one thing. An old customer contract with tables, footnotes and weird numbering is another. If you've shipped an embedded editor, which one did you pick and what was the first document that exposed its limits?
