I use notion for my task management and journaling, but I was missing scrum standups and some accountability as a solo developer, so I thought about creating an alarm that wakes me up with my daily own updates (what I did yesterday, what I plan to do today). I did some simple experiments, recording myself before going to sleep and playing it when I woke up, and I enjoyed the experience.

After some initial research, I found thousands of iOS custom alarms, but many of them didn’t work well. Digging deeper, people said that iOS alarms are a workaround since Apple doesn’t provide any API for that. The technical approaches are not welcomed by Apple and could be shut down at any moment. Still, there are VC-backed companies built on top of this backdoor.

So my first proof of concept was to create a voice memo + alarm app to validate if my approach would be accepted by Apple. An alarm that plays even in Sleep mode, Do Not Disturb, and when sound is muted. They just accepted it. Now I want to polish it a bit more and get some initial feedback.

To be honest, I don’t think there’s a real market for this, so I’ll probably make it open source. However, I see a good foundation for future ideas.

@diegodottac I use a lot of notes and to-do apps, but they rely on you remembering to actually open them and check. I like the idea of an alarm app that preemptively gets you updated on what you need to do each day. I definitely see the benefit for a solo dev!

This weekend I’m working on something a little chaotic - a newsletter called Idea TBD.

We drop weird product ideas, public experiments, and actual startup messes - not the polished “we knew all along” stories.

We also feature products from the community - free exposure, real feedback, and maybe even a few users.

Let me know if you’d like your product featured.

Dropping our second edition this weekend - would love your feedback if you check it out.

Open to all feedback — trying to make resume editing way less painful ✨

Juan Secchi

@ashour_ryzma hey there! that sounds great, good luck with your launch!

I really like going as minimalistic as possible for my CV.

If the output is highly editable, then thats win for me!

Abdelrahman Ashour

@juan Thanks so much I totally get you , minimalistic CVs are clean, focused, and timeless.

Yes! Ryzma gives you full control to tweak the output however you like. You can regenerate, edit, and even switch templates until it feels just right.

Would love to hear your feedback once you try it!

I am building a MCP server, tweaking with some good idea to build my MCP on.

Jake Crump

@aryansharma17 Interesting! What's the use case? Would love to hear more about how the experience goes!

I am planning to make a GPT wrapper to generate customized resume bullet points according to my experience and job description. I want to use it as a Chrome extension so that it's easier to add points to any resume-building platform of my choice (personally speaking, I am not a big fan of frequently switching tabs between GPT and a resume builder). I am thinking about using RAG to provide the AI with a sample of actual resume points for better responses.

Jake Crump

@kushagrasinha That sounds useful. Are you planning on releasing it publicly? Or just using it yourself?

Kushagra Sinha

@jakecrump Yes! I am going to make it a public tool! I plan on starting as a web app and then moving towards a Chrome Extension

Working on herdr. It’s a recently launched collaborative roadmapping, work management, and chat tool for small teams who need to map strategy into executable pieces of work.

Jake Crump

@adam_vanbuskirk That sounds cool! Feel free to share a link here!

This weekend I’m zeroing in on CreatorCube AI’s newest feature, our goal-driven action planner. You tell us your goal (launch a podcast, build a brand, write a research paper) endless goal capability, and we generate a personalized action plan complete with step‐by‐step instructions, tailored prompts, and AI tool recommendations to use within our platform. Behind the scenes we’re fine-tuning how each suggestion adapts to different workflows, so you get exactly the right mix of text, image & video generators, and audio tools....no more guesswork or endless tab-hopping. It’s all about delivering the right combo of tools and the structured action plan to achieve that goal!

Jake Crump

@larrystefanjr This is a really good idea! I like the idea of tool recommendations for sure. That seems super useful.

Larry Stefan Jr

@jakecrump Thanks Jake appreciate the feedback!

🚀 This weekend I'm refining https://www.aceinterview.in/ — an AI-powered platform where users can practice interviews, get instant feedback, and track progress.

Just added voice input + question-level analytics. Would love feedback from fellow makers! 🙌

Happy to review your projects too — drop them below! 🔧💬

Jake Crump

@rankush_vishwakarma What kind of analytics are you looking to add for the questions?

rankush vishwakarma

@jakecrump Hey Jake,

Thanks for your question. I’ve already implemented features like scoring, feedback with the correct answer, and suggestions for improvement. Now, I’m planning to add a simple dashboard showing the user's streak — total questions attempted, correct and wrong answers, topic-wise performance, etc.

I also want to introduce a badge system to make learning more engaging and help users track their progress better.

As a solo founder working on my first venture, I’m always open to feedback and suggestions — feel free to share any ideas!

💡 Idea: Real-Time Manager Coaching Tool for Meetings

I'm building a smart assistant that integrates with Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams to help managers run more inclusive, effective meetings—without disrupting the flow.

🔍 It passively analyzes meetings in real-time and post-meeting to coach managers on leadership communication, team engagement, and inclusiveness.

🛠️ Key Features:

  • Live Meeting Analysis: Tracks speaking time, interruptions, active listening, and team inclusiveness.

  • AI-Powered Feedback: Understands tone, clarity, empathy, and overall communication style.

  • Engagement Signals: Measures participant involvement, reactions, and non-verbal cues.

  • Post-Meeting Coaching Tips: Sends a one-pager with actionable feedback, like:

    • Try asking more open-ended questions.

    • Only 30% of the team spoke—next time, prompt quieter members.

    • Great job giving recognition—keep it consistent.

    • Overall team energy.

    • How connected and heard people felt.

🎯 Impact:

Managers get continuous micro-coaching to become better leaders—no manual evaluations or coaching sessions needed. It’s like having a leadership coach in every call!

Would love feedback, suggestions, or collab ideas from other makers! 🙌

Jake Crump

@sk_faiz This is a really good idea! Does it have any on-screen info/notifications during the meeting? Or is it primarily focused in just the post-meeting feedback?
