I’m building a tool and platform to make it easy to collect and analyse user feedback. For now, it’s primarily targeted at collecting feedback from ProMind users. Would anyone else be interested in using it for their products? #buildinpublic #indiehackers

🔄 Reactivation insight: Personal founder emails to churned users got 3x more responses than automated messages. Keep it human, authentic, and brief. Show you care about their feedback. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

I never thought building a chat view could be this complicated 🤔

I’m considering switching over from Stripe to a MoR like Paddle. #buildinpublic do you have any recommendations or anyone using Stripe tax successfully?

Sneak peek 👀 These days I’m more productive working on my bed than my super optimised ergonomic desk setup 😂😂 Not good for my posture though!

I have been heads down working on a new chat UI for ProMind.ai lately ✨. It’s all coming together nicely. Gradual rollout should kick off by Friday. I have a long list of ideas to implement this year. I’m so excited! #buildinpublic

Just spent time putting together this massive SQL query for our 2024 wrapped data. Had to use ProMind's data analyst mind because honestly, my SQL skills are... let's say "works in progress" 😅 Feels a bit meta using your own product to analyze itself, but hey, it works! 🎯 #buildinpublic

Was working on 2024 wrapped, but realized most users are probably out there enjoying their well-deserved break right now. Think I'll save it for early 2025, maybe drop it as a throwback when everyone's back in work mode (on a thursday perhaps) 😊 #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Been running ProMind AI for almost 2 years now, and I've noticed something interesting - usage always dips during December. Makes sense though, since folks mainly use it for work and productivity stuff. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Note to self: start where you are. Do what you have to do so you can do what you want to do.

I just saw promind.ai mentioned in an IEEE article – spectrum.ieee.org/ai-software Made me smile.

Lesson learned today: Building new features is exciting, but maintaining backward compatibility (or at least clear upgrade paths) is just as crucial for user experience. The basics matter. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Note to self: Add version checking to the ProMind.ai web and mobile apps that actually tells users when they're running an outdated version that might affect their premium features. Would've prevented today's whole troubleshooting session.

Sometimes the simplest solutions are right in front of us. After a long investigation, I finally asked for a screenshot of the error. Turns out they were just using an old version of the ProMind Mac app. One App Store update later - problem solved!

I solved an interesting customer support case for ProMind AI today. The user is on the premium plan but was getting basic plan restrictions. Spent a good chunk of time digging through account details and payment history trying to figure out what was wrong.

Building a marketplace like app for the first time – a platform connecting car owners to auto mechanics. I could use some advice from folks with experience on this from the #indiehackers #buildinpublic communities specifically around idea validation

🌱 ProMind was born from my own frustrations with AI. When ChatGPT launched, I loved it, but repeating myself and dealing with prompt engineering drove me crazy. I knew there had to be a better way! #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Nothing hits better than a user subscribing to the annual plan for ProMind AI! Asides the $$$, what I hear is “I’m hear with you for the long haul” #buildinpublic #indiehackers
