Dang it. I side quested again. #buildinpublic #failinpublic
I'm now able to capture speech when connected to Bluetooth. #BuildInPublic #FailInPublic
On-device AI is the next frontier
Mobile app screen showing two translation languages, with the audio icon indicating that it is connected to a Bluetooth device
Default mobile landing page for Zuzu mobile application. This page shows a prompt to choose the two languages being translated and a get started button
Progress on this journey as I am now able to connected a Bluetooth device to the application and capture audio to translate. #BuildInPublic #FailInPublic
App is coming along nicely. Translations and downloading of language packs works well now.

Building an offline AI translation app.
1. It will be bulky since it won't be sending requests to a server
2. Targeted for those in areas with weak internet connections (Aid workers, NATO personnel in distraught areas, tourists)
3. Leaning towards taste and aesthetics

I released a customer requested feature but forgot to update the app’s description to highlight this 🤦♂️
#buildinpublic #failinpublic #lessonlearned
It failed because people don't like changing profile pictures and changing profile picture affects verification on some platforms.
Lesson learnt : Don't go after "cute" ideas. Instead it is better to go after a boring idea with a proven demand.
#buildinpublic #failinpublic
here's the list of projects i'm working on.
the last failure was yt7.xyz - converting #YouTube videos to transcript #tool
AIPlesk.com is live
Qurelo.com is live
I'm not building anything big but just building stuff tools that could solve problems that people face.

about today
was working on web scrapping using python libraries, sat for 6 hours stretch
wrote so many files to test
results weren’t upto the mark
got angry, was going to trash everything
stopped. took a break
Burnout can’t be avoided
Take frequent breaks

That feeling when you thought you submitted the app for review but actually only got it ready for review instead 🤦♂️ #BuildInPublic #FailInPublic
#buildinpublic + #failinpublic
Built an app powered by Reddit data…
Now trying to market it to Redditors
…but Reddit hates self-promo.
Cool cool cool. 😅
Feels like a catch-22 wrapped in a rate limit.
Any tips?

Tried to promote GlowIndex across social media... and it’s not clicking 😅
If you’ve cracked the “how to talk about your project online” code, I’m all ears 👂

Metrics don’t lie,
but they don’t tell the whole story.
Learn to listen to them...

Domain suspended. Contacts verification needed.
I forgot to verify my domain name account and now my domain name is suspended 🤷♂️
I don't know how long it's gonna take to fix this, but lesson learned: stay proactive and tackle small tasks before they become big problems.

Todays Reddit post feels a lot better than what I posted yesterday for Indie Buckets.
Got any feedback on how I could make tomorrows post even better?

Posting that has actually highlighted my screen shots are a bit wonky. #failinpublic
it seems like #failinpublic, the MRR is going down =(
PMs don't need another dashboard.
They need a decision.
“Build this next.”
“Here’s the proof.”
That’s the AI we’re working on at Leanbase.

Don't overcaffeinate kids...
But definitely drink enough coffee to notice errors of this magnitude before pushing to production.
I somehow placed NYC 12 HOURS behind London instead of 5..... 🫠
Embrace the chaos of #buildinpublic - it's a thing of beauty 🥹

ALWAYS. Especially when AI gets its digital hands on your config files.
Double-check that damn URL. Every. Single. Time.
#BuildInPublic & #FailInPublic (Let's make this a thing, people!)
8 refund events in a row, from one user, - $31
This kind of thing depresses me 😞

Today is a big milestone for us. We've reached more than a thousand registered users!
Thank you to all our users and app owners.

I think there is something to this. Every failure is a learning opportunity.
For example, I spent probably $20k on freelancers and ads to build Stockiful.com in 2021. Hardly made any money on it at all and felt too embarressed to talk about it at the time.
Whats your #FailInPublic story?
I try to share some #failinpublic stories as well. Should perhaps start to use that hashtag when I do :)
Reminder: before you spend a bunch of time and energy building a feature, #RTFM. Just build a massive (non-functioning) human input step into a #CrewAI flow just to accidentally find all I had to do was add “human_input: true” to the task. #buildinpublic #failinpublic #learninpublic
