Hey PH! Ashish here, solo founder of DuskOS.
Maker here happy to answer anything, including the hard questions
Quick honest story: I'm a dropout who's tried and closed four startups before this one. Each one taught me something. This is the first one where I actually stuck around long enough to build something I'd trust with my own money literally, since I'm the first user.
I built a free email signature generator and the most requested feature surprised me
A while back I put together FreeSignature (freesignature.site), a free generator for HTML email signatures no account, no watermark, nothing to install. I made it because every tool I found either wanted $9/month or stamped its own logo into my signature.
What surprised me is what people actually asked for. I expected requests about fonts, colours, layout. Almost none came. The two things people wrote about were:
1. "Will it still work in Outlook?" Outlook renders email HTML with Word's engine, so anything modern breaks in ways you only discover after sending it to a client. Half the work in that tool is not design, it is avoiding CSS that Outlook silently drops.
2. "Where is my data going?" A signature contains your full name, role, phone number and employer. People were right to ask. It runs entirely in the browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
Chadence — preserve your voice, memories, and legacy
I built Chadence because I know what it feels like to lose someone and wish you still had more of their voice, stories, memories, and messages.
Chadence is a digital legacy platform designed to help people preserve the parts of themselves they want their loved ones to keep including voice recordings, photos, videos, stories, memories, and personal messages.
The goal is simple: give people a way to leave more than photographs behind.
Chadence is live now, and I d genuinely appreciate feedback from other founders and makers.

Launching Round Funded today on PH
This product came directly from our own fundraising experience.
We found our first angel investor through cold outreach, but getting there took months of searching for investors, building lists, sending messages, following up, and tracking everything manually.
Customers ask for dashboards. Your roadmap pays the price
Hi Hunters,
We've been working on the these features on Querypanel.io for a while now and finally we got it done and released!
Last time we released the headless ai driven chart and dashboard management.
Now, we improved the system by adding a Notion-like dashboard editor with AI Assistant! We also added an agentic workflow to the AI Assistant that helps you quickly iterate on a chart. The dashboard editor is fully multi tenant ready!
Ryvals.gg
Hi! I'm Patrick. I've been doing CrossFit for years and always competed informally with friends during workouts. "Who got the fastest time?" "Did you beat my score?" "How heavy was your deadlift?" That's why I'm super excited about launching Ryvals . My goal is simple: to turn your daily workouts into fun, competitive challenges.
The idea originated several years ago. Last year, I decided to put all my spare time into this project, perfect every detail, and put all my love into making it. I have a lot of plans for the future, but at this moment, the hardest part is getting people to actually visit the app, sign up, and use it. I would love to get some tips on this.

Building an appblocker because Apple's "Ignore Limit" was to easy to bypass
Hey everyone,
I had been having a hard time for couple of monts with doomscrolling on apps like Instagram and Reddit. Last year, I tried using Apple's built-in screen time on my iPhone to set limits to my usage of these apps. However, in most cases, I would just tap on the "Ignore Limit for 15 Minutes" notification that appeared every time.
This became so frustrating that I tried many third-party blockers. Most of them would require a local VPN to be installed, so draining the battery and having access to all of my traffic, which did not seem like a good privacy tradeoff to be honest.
I nodded along when I signed my mortgage. I had no idea what I'd actually agreed to.
Five years ago I signed the biggest financial commitment of my life and was too embarrassed to admit I didn't understand it. I nodded along in the meeting. I told people I "knew what I was doing." Really, I just knew the monthly number and I was scared to ask what happened to that number if rates went up, because asking felt like admitting I'd made a mistake I couldn't afford to have made.
Then one night I actually sat down with a notebook and worked through the maths myself. I understood so much more than I expected to and that's when it hit me: if I was struggling with this, there had to be a lot of people going through the exact same thing, quietly, without telling anyone either.
So I built something. At first just for myself, but with the thought that it might help others too something that shows you what's actually principal, what's interest, what an overpayment really does, what a rate rise really costs, without having to say any of that out loud to a bank, a broker, or anyone else.
It's called Mortgage Insights. Everything stays on your phone no account, no one on the other end. The basics are free, permanently, because I don't think understanding your own mortgage should cost anything.
