Launch week: every idea card is free.Get Pro

SaaS ideas, mined from what people actually complain about.

Every idea comes from real Reddit posts, was researched against today's competitors, and survived an independent skeptic before it made the list.

Scattered Client Tools

Freelancers struggle to manage scattered client tasks, communications, deadlines, and payments across multiple tools, leading to lost time and money.

In their words

I just need something that tracks time, sends invoices, and keeps my projects organized without bankrupting me

r/freelancing on Reddit

i do graphic design freelance and i have exact same problems with clients and schedules

r/SideProject on Reddit

a lot of freelancers only need the core features, and sometimes the extra complexity ends up getting in the way more than it helps

r/growmybusiness on Reddit

Right after the discovery call, I just want things to happen automatically and I just review the proposal before sending it.

r/micro_saas on Reddit

Professional only allows 3 connected projects. Organization only bumps that to 6, but the seat cost jump is massive if you're paying for a small team.

r/FigmaDesign on Reddit

there is no way to get a contract or signature online

r/PakFreelancers on Reddit

spending real money just for the chance to maybe have your proposal seen

r/Upwork on Reddit

if someone wants me to design something outside of my portfolio provided then I charge a consultants fee.

Or the day you die, do your clients get left in limbo? How do you plan for something like that?

r/webdev on Reddit

Still not fun untill i automate some other parts of the business but way less scattered than trying to run the business side from tabs, notes, and memory

r/SideProject on Reddit

Clients disappearing after delivery. Payments getting delayed. Scope changing halfway through.

r/webdev on Reddit

most have either felt more complicated than our team needs or haven't quite matched the way a PR agency operates

r/PublicRelations on Reddit

After that, there are so many small things happening at once: waiting for feedback, sending a reminder, clarifying a request, following up on an invoice

Because somebody still has to connect all of those places together, and that somebody is usually you... You have successfully become an API.

Why those fall short

  • Connects not refunded when job expires without hire; low view rates
  • setup, banking, invoices and payment tracking feel scattered across random tabs
  • too complicated, too open, not matching how a PR agency operates
  • no way to reach client or prove delivery; no leverage remotely
  • no system to track standing client requirements
