A small dev team I know is testing something: free technical/security audits for early-stage startups code review, infrastructure, cost optimization, whatever's most relevant. In exchange, they'd like to turn it into a video for their YouTube channel (decent reach, videos regularly hit 30-50k views).
Not sure yet if this is actually appealing or just sounds like a trap to founders. If someone offered you this, would you take it? What would make you say yes or no the free audit part, the exposure part, or neither?
Curious what this community thinks, especially if you're prepping for a raise or dealing with a security questionnaire from an enterprise client.
Hey there! I am one of the founders of Linguix - we build AI writing assistant and now we are diving into developing our API and offering an easy way to integrate it via API. My idea, that has some proof via PoC projects by now, is that when you add grammar checking dialogues to your app, people will spend more time within it = improved retention rates. Also, those dialogues can potentially be used to promote core product features, which should improve APRS/ARPU.
What do you think? Would you be open to testing this kind of product (Grammar Check API/SDK) for free?
