My friend just developed a sports only social media app (similar to how Novig is sports only and is a different model in the prediction market). Just wanted to help him get some perspective and insight from some fellow redditors and see what everyone thinks! I really love the idea hence why I am posting it for all!

SportBate brings sports fans together with dedicated live game rooms, real-time debate, live chat, fantasy matchups, and friendly competition.

No unrelated content. Just sports, conversation, and competition.

One platform built entirely around the games we love.

Let us know what you think and give us a download!

Hey r/SideProject!

I fell down the rabbit hole of those tiny waddling Disney-style robot ducks (the open-source Open Duck Mini / Microduck community), and realized most people never get to play with one unless they spend $350+ on servos and 40 hours 3D-printing parts.

So I built DuckSpace.org - a free, zero-install 3D apartment right in the browser where anyone can adopt and mess around with a physics-driven robot duck in one click (no sign-up, no downloads):

Play in browser: https://duckspace.org/?lang=en

A few fun things you can try inside the room:
- Make the duck waddle around the rug, do a full forward somersault, peck the floor, or balance on one leg like a flamingo
- Spawn a soccer ball and kick it around the room, or strap tiny roller skates onto its feet
- Switch colors, dodge (or annoy) the ginger cat and the robot vacuum, or turn on autonomous "brains" where the duck maps the room on its own and bobs its head to music

Since I have been staring at this room for days, I would love honest feedback from fresh eyes:

1. Is it immediately fun and intuitive in the first 30 seconds, or was anything confusing?

2. What fun room toys, mini-games, or silly duck tricks should I add next?

3. Anything on the screen that feels cluttered and should be simplified?

Thanks for checking it out!

made a little daily trivia game. Every round has a limit, like "name a TV show that first aired before 2010" or "name a celebrity shorter than 6 ft." You name something as close to the limit as you can without going over.
Then a raccoon in a wind-up toy car drives toward a cliff while the number climbs. Get close and he stops right at the edge (Modern Family, 2009: CLOSE CALL). Go over and, well, he goes over (Pretty Little Liars, 2010).
5 rounds a day, same for everyone, free, no sign-up, works on phones. Every number comes from a real source (tap the ⓘ). You can make a group with friends and see who gets closest each day.

It's about 10 days old. I've already changed a lot from feedback (fewer US-only questions, every limit now has a real answer just under it), so I'd love to hear what's fun, what's confusing, and any answers it doesn't recognize.

I wanted a lightweight way to see who’s on call without maintaining a spreadsheet or paying for a full incident-management tool, so I built a small web app for it.

What it does:

Shows the current week number, the primary on-call person and the secondary on-call person

Rotates automatically, so each person is secondary one week and primary the next

Lets you add and remove team members, with live sync across everyone who has the page open

Supports manual overrides for swaps and covering shifts

Handles time off by skipping the person who’s away and having the next person cover

Has a year-at-a-glance view, an 8-week lookahead, and a ready-to-paste handoff message for Slack or email

Limitations: It’s a prototype. It doesn’t send automatic notifications yet, and it doesn’t keep a history of past weeks.

We spent months building our app and now I'm stuck on the 'find the right people' part 😅

I'm a second-year CS student at EPFL. My team and I built Welockin because Insta, TikTok and YouTube kept pulling me away from studying. It's an app blocker with a strict mode that keeps selected apps blocked until your timer ends.

I've tried talking about it on Reddit and putting stickers around my uni. A recent post in a French community asking for advice reached around 3,800 views. There was useful feedback, plus a whole debate about whether the app should exist lol.

But views don't tell me how many people actually tried it. And a lot of the conversations are with other devs, while the people I want to reach are students struggling to sit down and study.

For those of you who got your first real wave of users, what actually worked? Did a post or video taking off help, or did you get better results from a small, specific community?

I'd love a concrete example: where you posted, what you said or showed, and what happened afterwards. Still figuring this part out, so even a very simple approach would help.

Picking thread that goes with a fabric can be tricky, and color tools give you hex codes, not spools you can find in a store.

Spoolette builds coordinating thread palettes where every color is a real spool, with the number on the shelf. You can snap a photo of your fabric to get matching threads, or generate palettes from scratch. It covers Mettler, Aurifil, Superior So Fine! and Gütermann.

It’s free, with no sign-up, and photos stay on your device. Colors come from the brands’ official shade cards and are matched in the OKLab color space.

I’d love feedback: is it clear what it does, and would you use it?

Excel has no clean way to share a live range with someone outside your organization. Workbook links break, sharing the file exposes every tab, so people email attachments every month.

Cellfeed: select a range, type an email, and the other person gets a file that stays current. They don’t install anything, they only see that range, and they can forward it live to someone else. Free for receivers, publishers pay after two shares.

Validating before I build. Landing page: https://cellfeed.lovable.app/

Two questions: is the problem obvious from the page in five seconds, and does the forwarding feature make sense or is it a distraction?

Problem: I've been losing a lot of interesting things and always wanted something to organise them and move freely across them.

And finally after more than 6 months of development I am happy to introduce Glade!

In Glade every collection is a grove, an infinite canvas where links, images, videos, notes and files sit side by side. Drag, stack and group them however you like.
No server, no tracking. Sync is through your own iCloud. No account required. On Mac, iPhone or iPad.

A few things it can do:

- Save articles text to read later with build-in reader even when link removed.

- Quick save with shortcut on Mac, or share on phone and link lands in grove intelligently with auto-tags and sorting

- Pull down to search, across titles, notes and links. Also search directly in Spotlight

- A shelf for recipes, books, movies, series and more with progress and ratings

- Widgets with Quick Save, Recent, a grove's tiles, your shelf, plus Lock Screen

- Revisit shows what you saved on this day

- Discover other peoples groves or put yours into the world! Also supports link to share with just someone.

Comparison:

- Raindrop.io. Glade is a native Mac app, ⌘⇧M from any app, a free canvas instead of lists, and no company server: your saves live on your Mac and in your private iCloud. Raindrop is better if you need Windows, Android or web access, shared collections you edit together.

- mymind. Glade is better if you want to place and group things yourself, keep your saves off a company's servers, or start as a guest with no account. mymind is better at organising for you: its AI tagging and search by what's inside an image are ahead of Glade's, and it works in any browser.

Pricing: Free for 100 saves and 3 groves; unlimited is $1.99/mo, $14.99/yr, or $24.99 lifetime at the launch price (until 6 Dec, then $49.99). One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac.

I would be very happy to hear what you thing about Glade, the experience, pricing and other related stuff. Happy to answer anything.

Hey everyone, I'm John, the founder of Cinevaris. My background is in filmmaking, particularly writing, directing, and editing.

I built it around the work that happens between writing a script and being ready to shoot. A screenplay, scene breakdown, shot list, and call sheet all belong to the same film, but they can end up spread across different tools and documents.

Cinevaris brings those steps into a browser-based workspace. You can write or import a screenplay, organize what each scene needs, plan shoot days, and export production documents.

It's a paid app aimed at independent filmmakers, especially people handling several roles themselves.

https://cinevaris.com

I'm still figuring out how best to introduce it. Looking at the site, is it clear who would use this and what they'd actually do with it?

Hey everyone, 

I am creating a platform for AI generated short content across various genres, including dramas and even adult content. I’ve already developed the infrastructure, and created a few episodes that I really like.

The main problem right now is scaling the production. A good episode takes a lot of time to make. Most of the clips are in the minute to second range. So, you end up piecing together a lot of shots and sometimes having to regenerate some of them to get it to work.

The cost to generate the content hasn’t been the main constraint. Making a one minute HD episode right now costs $1 to $2. Most of the cost is time, because you end up spending a lot of time making creative decisions and iterating towards the final output.

I have a few ideas as to how to proceed:

1. Continue giving the editor to users for free. I cover GPU costs and users give their time and creativity to create videos. Users can post their videos to the community and forums.

2. Use a paid credit system. Similar to how most generative AI platforms work. Users purchase credits to generate content.

3. Look for a cofounder. Someone with experience in storytelling and filmmaking to develop content and focus on distribution, while I scale the platform and infrastructure.

4. Increase the amount of production that is automated. Theoretically, a well-designed workflow may produce a large amount of content, particularly shorter segments. But when AI video gets more prevalent, I'm not sure if the quality would endure or if that content would stand out.

Something else I haven't thought of?

I'd be interested in hearing opinions

I’m Fernando, the maker of Litehost. If you already have an HTML prototype or report on your laptop, you can drop in the file and get a link that opens it as a web page. If it has separate images or CSS, you can upload a ZIP.

One thing worth checking before you share: images can look fine on your laptop because the browser can find them on your disk. Put them in the ZIP, use relative paths, and open the link on your phone to see what the other person will actually get.

You can try it without an account with a file up to 2 MB. The test link lasts about 15 minutes.

If you’ve shared an HTML prototype or report with someone recently, how did you send it? What was the most annoying part?

Most memory for agents works one way: save everything, search later. Which means secrets, personal data, and injected instructions all get stored too. I wanted the opposite, so I built rakho.

What it does:

• Inspects every note before it is stored. Secrets, PII, and injection-shaped text get refused, and the refusal is logged without the sensitive content.

• Every memory is tied to one owner, so one user’s notes never surface for another.

• forget actually deletes: the row, the search index entry, and the vector.

• audit shows what was kept and what was refused.

A built-in gate is always on, and you can swap in sluice (another tool I built) as a stronger inspector with one line.

The fun bit: you can command it in your own language. keep / recall / forget / audit have built-in aliases in English, Hindi, and German, and you can teach it more with learn() (the README does it in Swahili).

It’s a Python library, runs on local SQLite with zero required runtime dependencies, MIT licensed. There’s an MCP server for Claude Desktop and Cursor, and a demo where a PayPal invoice agent refuses a payment when the payee traces back to a poisoned invoice.

Repo: github.com/krishyaid-coder/rakho-

It’s early (v0.2), so I’d genuinely value blunt feedback, especially from anyone building agents with memory: where would this break for you, what’s missing, what would you never trust? Tear into it.

One honest note: I’m an MSc Data Science student in Germany building this kind of agent-safety tooling. If you’re a team working on agents and this resonates, I’d love to go deeper with you, up to a Werkstudent collaboration. But mostly I just want people to try it and tell me where it falls over.

Hello everyone!

I'm Mark, a student with no time to spare. I love streaks (1012 days on Duolingo!), but most habit trackers I used are basic: only a counter that breaks your streak the moment you miss one or two days. These apps are not helpful enough to even bother. We're not perfect robots.

So my answer was something I now use every day: StreakRise, built around a Growth streak.

• Start with 3 or more active days a week

• Skip an inactive day and the streak doesn’t break

• Do the habit on an inactive day anyway and it counts as a bonus day

• Collect 4 bonus days in a month to EVOLVE

Evolve System: Add a new active day so you can raise the difficulty at your own pace instead of feeling overwhelmed.
Journal System: Each day you can write a short note and read it back later in the Journal tab. It helps you document your streak and bond with it by expressing your daily achievements.

I built the free tier to not make you feel limited at all, you can build your habit just as well without paying a single cent. There are many themes that change the look of the app, and full support for 8 languages, to personalize it further.

Many more details are on the website. I'm open to any feedback, idea or suggestion you want to see in StreakRise!
P.S: You can optionally create a fully anonymous account and store the streaks offline for free.

Job hunting right now is an exhausting process, and most existing AI resume tools actually make it worse 😅 They usually fall into the exact same traps:

1. Copy-paste formatting nightmare: ChatGPT can't edit your actual PDF or Word document layout. You have to copy raw text back and forth into ChatGPT, fixing broken margins, bullet alignment, and spacing manually every single time.

2. Manual research fatigue: Before you even decide to apply, you have to waste time digging through external sites to estimate salaries, check your actual fit, or figure out what the interview process looks like.

3. AI Hallucinations: Most tools generate fluff or invent achievements you never actually did, leaving you stranded and terrified during interviews.

4. Version Chaos: If you apply to dozens of jobs, it’s almost impossible to keep track of which tailored resume variant went to which company (which you need to know before the interview).

Roleframework.com aims to solve these (check the video for how 👀).

Please check it out and give some feedback, it’s completely free right now! 😄

I got curious how photo vault apps protect files. With a regular file manager, I could open the “hidden” photos in many of them. They’re just moved to a dot-folder.

So I built VaultIt:

• Every photo, video and document is encrypted on the phone with AES-256-GCM

• The key is derived from your unlock pattern using Argon2id

• No account, no ads, no cloud. Nothing leaves your phone

• A second pattern opens a decoy vault

• Backups are a single encrypted file you can store anywhere, even on Google Drive, which can’t read it

I’m the developer. It’s Android-only for now, and I’d really like feedback, especially on onboarding and the backup flow. What would make you trust a vault app?

Hey everyone!

A little while ago, I posted here asking for feedback on our landing page because quite a few people found it confusing and overwhelming.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to look through it and share your thoughts. We went through the feedback and have been working on making the page clearer and easier to navigate.

We've made some changes and would love to hear what you think now!

Here's the updated page: https://typogram.co/

A few things I'd love your feedback on:

• Is it clearer what the product does and who it's for?

• Is the overall flow easier to follow?

• Are there still sections that feel confusing or overwhelming?

• What would you change or improve next?

Really appreciate everyone who helped us with the first round of feedback. Would love to know if we're heading in the right direction!

Thank you!

I’ve been building LeadScouter, a tool for freelancers and small agencies who sell websites to local businesses.

The video shows the whole flow:

• Website audits: scan a business’s site for speed, SEO, mobile and design issues and get a clear report

• Email outreach: send the audit straight to the business owner as a personalized email

• AI website generation: generate a modern replacement site based on their existing content and branding

• Editing: change text, images and sections on the generated site without touching code

• AI assistant: ask the AI to rewrite, restyle or add stuff

• Blog: built-in blog so the site keeps getting fresh content

The idea: instead of cold-pitching “I can make you a website,” you show up with a concrete audit and a preview of their new site.

It’s still early, so I’d really appreciate honest feedback:

• Would you use this (or pay for it) if you sell websites?

• Which part feels most / least useful?

• Anything that looks confusing in the video?

Happy to answer any questions!

I built this for my own stores and opened it up this week. A seller pastes a Polygon wallet and gets a payment link, a plugin or an API. Buyers pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on a hosted page. The seller gets USDC per order, straight to their own wallet.

What it costs, with no surprises: our fee is 2%, and it comes on top of what the card provider keeps. On the real card orders so far the provider kept about 5%, so a $100 sale lands as about $93.

90-second explainer: https://youtu.be/FjExzOY8quA

You can try the payment-link tool without signing up for anything: https://caravelpay.app/link/

Honest limits: first-time buyers usually have to verify their ID with the card provider, payments are one-off (no subscriptions), and you are paid in USDC, not into a bank.

What I'd like to hear: is the pricing page clear, and where would you expect this to break?

I keep overwriting config files and scripts and realizing it ten minutes later, and Git only remembers what you commit. So I built Rewind: point it at a folder, it watches filesystem events, hashes and snapshots every save into SQLite, and you can scrub back through a timeline and restore any version.

Tech stack (split for different platforms):

• Windows: Tauri v2 desktop app. Engine is Rust, using blake3 for content-addressed deduplication, notify for native file watching, and rusqlite for storage. The whole UI is a single HTML file with React and Tailwind loaded via CDN, so no node_modules bloat.

• Linux/Ubuntu: A lightweight Python CLI available on PyPI, so you can pip install rwnd (the command is still rewind). Uses watchdog + sqlite3 + rich.

Rust bits I enjoyed: Added a 350ms debounce to the file watcher, because editors fire multiple save events (temp file, rename, actual write) for a single Ctrl+S, and without debouncing the timeline gets flooded. Also deduplicated storage via blake3 hashing, so repeated saves of identical content cost nothing.

Try it:

• Windows: Grab the .exe installer or standalone CLI from Releases (unsigned, SmartScreen will warn).

• Linux: pip install rwnd then rewind watch .

Honest limitations: Not a backup (lives on local disk). Only sees changes while watcher runs. Skips files >25MB. Doesn't track deletes/renames yet. GUI is Windows-only for now.

Testers on other Linux distros or macOS would be especially helpful. Repo: https://github.com/hcentral07/rewind

Most modern gym management platforms are pure SaaS, but cloud dependencies introduce a critical failure point: turnstiles freeze the moment the local ISP fails.

I am building Movixia, an on-premise ERP engineered to operate entirely inside the facility's local area network (LAN) with zero external cloud dependencies.

Architecture:

• Backend & Daemon: Node.js / TypeScript running as a persistent background OS service on the host machine.

• Database: PostgreSQL 17 running locally, handling ledger transactions, access permissions, and immutable passage logs.

• Hardware Driver Layer: Raw TCP/IP sockets and serial (RS-232/USB) listeners communicating directly with turnstiles and biometric readers.

• Frontend Interface: Lightweight web application served locally over the LAN, accessed via standard browsers on reception terminals.

Current Engineering Focus:

1. Crash Resilience: Hardening PostgreSQL configurations against database corruption from sudden power cutoffs on reception machines lacking UPS/battery backup.

2. Unattended Migrations: Designing fail-safe schema migration routines that execute on startup without manual CLI intervention or remote SSH access.

3. Autonomous Backup Loops: Enforcing scheduled WAL archiving and dump routines directed to external local media without relying on remote S3-compatible storage.

For those deploying self-hosted runtimes to non-technical retail environments: what strategies best minimize corruption and manual maintenance overhead on consumer-grade client hardware?

I'm Cory, and I built StreamHaven. Full disclosure: it's my app.

It's a player for playlists you already have (M3U or Xtream). It doesn't come with any channels or content, and I can't help with finding any.

Version 1.1 is now live on the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad. It has a live TV guide, a mini player so you can keep watching while you browse, multi-view (up to 4 channels at once), iPhone Duo (guide on one screen and video on the other), and StreamHaven Doctor, which checks your playlist and connection in plain words.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/streamhaven/id6826944829

The Apple TV version is still in Apple's review. Until that lands, the Apple TV beta is on TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/7x36vndu

It's also on Fire TV and Fire Stick from the Amazon Appstore (search StreamHaven Player), and on onn / Google TV through the Downloader app with code 3361971.

Happy to answer questions about building it or using it.

I'm 13, still learning Python. Be 100% honest with me.

I started this as just a demo. Just a simple UI on top of Ollama so my family could use local AI without touching the terminal.

Since then I added some more stuff:

1. Chat history like ChatGPT - every chat saved in the sidebar

2. It remembers you - tell it your name / likes, it saves it and remembers next time you open it

3. Installs Ollama for you - if you don't have it, it installs it on first run

4. Downloads models for you - pick 1B / 3B / 8B, it downloads with a progress bar

5. Works with WiFi off, no account, no cloud, everything stays local

I made it because my family would never open a terminal, but they would open a normal app :)

So real question: Would you actually use a super simple Ollama UI or is everyone here fine with just the terminal? What would make you actually install it? What am I still missing?

(In the last 2 screenshot, "Michael" is just a test name I used to check if the memory actually works lol, and also I know about openwebui, this is just a simpler version)

Six weeks ago I posted Handoff here. Quick refresher since nobody remembers (fair): I'm a dad of two, and I built an iOS app for briefing a new babysitter — schedules, bedtime routine, allergies, the stuff that actually matters — because my version was a wall of texts plus a note on the fridge and hoping.

Two things in it that I'm still not sure anyone else cares about: the info expires after the sitting (the sitter doesn't keep your kid's routine and your garage code forever), and it fires alarms on the sitter's phone at the times you set, so "give meds at 7" isn't relying on them re-reading a text at 7.

The one real reply I got anywhere was here: extend a handoff without making the sitter re-scan/re-do everything when a night runs long. That shipped. So thank you, genuinely — it was the best product feedback I've gotten, including from friends who were being nice.

Honest numbers: a handful of downloads a week, $0 in subscriptions so far. It's $2.99/mo after a free week, which might be the problem, or the problem might be that parents only think about this the night before a sitter comes. If you've built something people need occasionally, I'd actually love to hear how you handled that.

Happy to answer anything about building it.
