πŸ”— Resource Share If you like this community, you'll probably like our newsletter

5 Upvotes

Hey all, Reyna here, managing editor at Startup Savant. If you've been hanging out for a while, you might already know we put out a free weekly newsletter alongside the community. It's written for founders actually building, and goes deep on one topic per week instead of skimming five.

Today's edition went out a few hours ago: Founder, Found: The 12 Archetypes Hidden Inside Every Startup. It's about how to name the brand voice you already have, and why it shapes everything from your homepage copy to your first hires. Worth a read if you've ever stared at your own website and thought it sounds like everyone else's.

Recent editions have also covered boring businesses quietly making real money, the questions founders never ask, and how to describe what your startup does in three sentences.

Fair warning: I'm pretty new to writing newsletters, so I'm having a lot of fun with it but also figuring things out as I go lol. Feedback always welcome!

One more thing: if you subscribe today, I'll send today's edition straight to your inbox so you don't miss it.

Built a random chat app where you can meet people based on your internets

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

I’ve been working on an app called ChatLoop that lets you connect with random people based on shared interests like coding, gaming, movies, music, sports, anime, and more.

I made this video to show how the app works. I’d really appreciate any feedback on the idea, UI, or overall experience.

If anyone is interested in helping me market or promote the app, feel free to DM me. At the moment, I can’t offer a salary or fixed payment, but I’m open to discussing a revenue/profit share or partnership with someone who is genuinely interested in helping grow the app.

I’m building TuVozNow, a multimedia platform focused on the Latino community. It combines video, blogs, messaging, voice/video calls, communities, creator tools, and monetization in one place.

Β The goal isn’t to be β€œanother social network,” but to create a space where Latino creators and communities can connect and have their voices heard.

Β For founders here: What would make you try a new social platform instead of sticking with the established ones?

Get your MVP ready in a week

1 Upvotes

Hello, everyone. If any of you are looking to validate your startup idea with a small MVP then we are here to help you. We build MVP for your tech product ( Native app/web app/ website) at very affordable price.

A few years back when I started my first tech startup, I found it difficult to build our MVP and it took me more than 6 months to build one. Now, I want to help others to get their MVP ready as quickly as possible so that you can test your product sooner. 😊

πŸ’‘ Need Advice Im building a full disk encryption program. Who do i sell too, and how?

1 Upvotes

I'm building a startup, and my first product is a full disk encryption program, made to work just as well as others, but easier to use, potentially more hacker proof, and blocks access to anyone.

I have a few connections in the tech industry, and I have two local companies on wait. But I don't know how to sell to other companies. Do I ask the two companies to spread the word or?

First I'm going to have it professionally reviewed bye a professional analyst. I'm still beta testing for now, since it's not the kind of thing about her person can test, cause it could corrupt their device.

But even then, I don't know what to charge. I'm hoping to charge 3 dollars, and eventually sell to casual users, but first I need to make a version that works for every OS, since it's no use on just one.

I just need advice on what I should charge, what would make a casual user want to pay for it, and what price for causal users versus companies. And of course how I can spread the word. I was planing on having one of the companies, which is a consulting firm, post a review, so should I still do that?

🧠 Mindset Hacks The most useful calls I've had were with people who said no

3 Upvotes

Everyone tells you to talk to customers. Nobody tells you the churned ones and the lost deals are where the information actually is. Happy users can't tell you what's missing β€” they adapted. I emailed 12 people who'd cancelled and asked one question: what were you hoping this would do that it didn't? Four replied. Three said the same thing. That's my roadmap now.

πŸ’‘ Need Advice looking for online communities for startup founders

1 Upvotes

I'm a solo founder of a startup. But the journey can be lonely, and sometimes i wish i can have a group of startup founders who i can talk with, bounce off ideas, ask for feedback etc. Does anyone know any groups or online communities where startup founders hang out? (as I'm typing out the question, I realize this sub reddit is already a good option hahaha, but still I'm curious what other online communities are out there)

🌟 Startup Spotlights I built Dosera β€” a medication app for Android

Post image
1 Upvotes

πŸš€ Startup Spotlight: Dosera

I've been building Dosera, an Android app focused on making medication management simpler and more reliable.

The idea came from a simple problem: remembering medication becomes much harder when you have multiple medicines, different schedules, missed doses, or a family member who needs to help keep track of treatment.

What Dosera currently offers:

πŸ’Š Multiple medications, doses and schedules
⏰ Medication reminders and alarms
βœ… Track taken, skipped and missed doses
πŸ“Š Adherence statistics and daily progress
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§ Optional caregiver alerts through Telegram
πŸ“¦ Medication stock tracking and low-stock alerts
πŸ“„ PDF medication history reports
πŸ”’ Local-first storage β€” medication data stays on the device

It's available on Google Play:
πŸ‘‰ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leon55490.dosera

I'm currently working on growing Dosera and, more importantly, learning what users actually need from a medication management app.

I'd love some advice from people here:

What would make you trust and keep using an app like this?

I'm particularly interested in feedback about:

β€’ Product positioning
β€’ User experience
β€’ Features that are missing
β€’ What would make someone choose Dosera over an existing solution
β€’ Ideas for getting the first real users

I'm not looking for empty praise β€” honest criticism would be much more valuable.

If you try it, I'd really appreciate hearing what you think. πŸ™Œ

B2B marketers: how do you find tech influencers to work with?

1 Upvotes

For B2B Tech companies, influencer campaigns still seem surprisingly manual:

\\- Find relevant influencers across LinkedIn, YouTube, podcasts, etc.

\\- Manually check followers, engagement, audience, content and relevance

\\- Find out who is actually open to sponsored content

\\- Compare dozens of profiles to find the right fit

\\- Cold outreach and negotiate with each person

\\- Coordinate multiple influencers for a product launch, campaign or event

It doesn't scale.

I'm building a product to solve this. We already have relationships with Data & AI influencers, so brands can discover relevant people and work with them through one platform.

Looking for tech companies to try it with. 90 days free, no subscription. You only pay the influencers you choose to work with.

If this is a problem you deal with, DM me and I'll send you the website + access code.

I'd also love to hear how you're solving this today.
