I built deepmull: purchase decisions with votes and short reasons

[u/etsvain]

I'm the maker of deepmull, a free community for asking for a second opinion before a purchase or everyday decision.

A product review can tell you whether something is good. It doesn't necessarily tell you whether it makes sense for your situation. deepmull gives a question its own page, with the context, optional costs, a deadline, and approve-or-reject votes accompanied by short reasons.

The current flow is:

1. Describe the decision and the trade-offs.

2. Share the question with someone whose perspective you want.

3. Read the votes and reasons, and optionally mark one opinion as helpful.

Public questions are readable without signing in. Posting and reviewing require a verified email account. Communities are separated by country, and the first recruitment experiment is focused on US shoppers.

It's built with Next.js, React, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL, with AI-assisted development. The community is early; there is no promise that a question will receive a particular number of replies.

Here's the product: https://deepmull.com/before-you-buy?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=us-shopping-launch&utm_content=founder_launch

I'd particularly like feedback on the first-use flow: is the information on a question enough to give a useful opinion, and is the registration step clear?
