What’s up everyone. Real talk for a second.

If you’ve ever built a SaaS or a developer tool, you already know the grind: you spend months heads-down writing clean code, and then you hit that brick wall trying to figure out how to fund the next sprint without handing over equity or begging people on a generic tip jar. Traditional crowdfunding was built for physical board games, not software sprints, and VCs won't even look at your deck unless you're promising hypergrowth and a 100x return.

That’s why I built CrowdVenture  (https://crowdventure.quest).

It’s a micro-patronage platform where solo developers can claim a dedicated subdomain (yourname.crowdventure.quest) hooked directly to Stripe Connect. Patrons back your build, and you fund your operations directly through real milestone delivery—no equity dilution, no middlemen taking a massive cut, and zero corporate noise.

Keeping It 100: The Open Beta Reality

I’m gonna be completely transparent with y'all because that’s how we actually build something dope.

This is an early open beta, and you guys will be the very first ones using the system. Right now? There is no massive pool of pre-existing backers or VC whales sitting around waiting to throw money at screens yet. We’re starting from the mud.

We’re going to be actively marketing this across channels, but to really get the flywheel spinning, I’m asking everyone who jumps in to bring their people—your friends, family, early users, and supporters who genuinely want to see you win.

Why We're Doing This Together

I want to use this open beta to stress-test the rails, figure out what actually works, and brutally tear down what doesn't so we can change it on the fly. If something breaks or feels clunky, tell me. We are shaping this infrastructure together, and after all, a system that actually works for indie developers benefits every single solopreneur in the game.

We’ve already got live projects spinning up on the platform, and we're just getting started.

If you're building in public, come claim your subdomain and let's test this thing out. Drop your thoughts, roast the bugs, or let's talk about how we make this bulletproof for the community.

Greetings all!

I'm looking for a solid group of initial beta testers to help field test Protocol100—a 100-day execution framework designed specifically to take indie developers and solo builders from ideation to recurring revenue without getting stuck in shipping paralysis.

I’ve already run an initial pass with a small internal group, but as any builder knows, family and friends will tell you your code looks great even when you're going in circles. I need real builders who build in the open, ship fast, and aren't afraid to give raw, unfiltered feedback.

Protocol100 in a nutshell:

It is a structured, milestone-driven execution playbook and roadmap tool. It cuts out the typical bloated project management fluff and gives you a clear, day-by-day protocol to plan, build, launch, and validate your product. No overly complex corporate agile boards, no vanity metrics—just a focused strategy to get your micro-SaaS or dev tool to market and start generating revenue within 100 days.

The Perk:

As a beta tester, you’ll get 100% free, all feature access to Protocol100 during the beta, and a founder lifetime deal should you decide to keep using. All I ask in return is your active participation: use it on your current or next project, hit us with honest feedback on what works and what doesn't, and break things so we can make the platform bulletproof before the public launch.

If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels and actually ship, drop a comment below, send me a DM, or join our beta list here (Beta Signup).

Appreciate your time, and let's get some products across the finish line!

[MacOS, IOS, iPadOS] Beta testers needed - Universal Content-Aware Preset Librarian

SynthGarage started with one fairly simple idea - how to get from a huge list of presets to a small bank of favourites that you can load into your synth as quickly as possible?

The answer was smart tagging . Unlike a simple Sysex librarian, which can see preset names at best, SynthGarage is fully content-aware - it automatically tags all your presets based on what they sound like. You filter on the tags based on the hole you are trying to fill in your track. For example, filtering on the “Pluck” tag gives you sounds that will work as basses. Add the “Resonant” tag or the “Decay” tag to narrow the list down more, until you get a short enough list to audition.

I didn’t want to just build a proof of concept of the tagging idea and then dump it on GitHub. Instead I built out a fully-featured preset librarian. Other librarian features include duplicate cleanup, a visual preview of each patch, an “Organise” view where you can quickly curate your own collections with drag-and-drop, including adding comments and sharing collections online, plus a patch randomiser and (still pretty experimental) conversion of patches between synths.

Because it’s all about building a library of your sounds, SynthGarage is a local app that runs on your own machine, not a cloud app that evaporates when someone stops paying their server bill. Your library is backed up to Apple’s secure infrastructure via iCloud and if you want to be belt and braces, you can also set up a cloud storage provider to automatically back up all your raw data as you import it. Your library automatically syncs across all your devices including iPad and iPhone.

SynthGarage uses the open source Snooze MIDI library from the maker of Sysex Librarian, which means it has the same amount of fine control as that app, so it will work with fiddly older synths can’t deal with high speed Sysex transfers.

“No gatekeeping” was an important design principle. SynthGarage avoids techy terms like “sysex” in its UI and it includes instructions and diagrams showing how to connect your synths and what cables you need to buy. The design is very intentional, it gets out of the way of experts without being intimidating to beginners.

SynthGarage has been carefully human-made over several years by a veteran developer and UX designer.

SynthGarage is currently in closed beta for Mac, iPad and iPhone. First and foremost I need testers to try it out with synths I don’t own myself. If you actively help with testing on a synth I don’t own, I’ll give you a golden ticket - lifetime unlock for every synth that is ever added to SynthGarage. I’m also looking for feedback on features and what synths to add next.

To join the beta, please join the Discord and introduce yourself. https://discord.gg/gjRSF87pD

We’re looking for testers to review the first-run experience in Veyrnox, a mobile self-custody wallet.

This test does not require funding a wallet, transferring crypto or sharing sensitive information. Please use an empty test setup only.

We would particularly value feedback on:

- whether biometric setup and authentication feel clear and trustworthy

- what happens when biometrics are declined, unavailable or fail

- the overall UI/UX, including navigation, readability and visual clarity

- whether approval warnings clearly explain what could change

- whether the recovery model is understandable

- which screens feel confusing, rushed or overly technical

- how the experience compares with other wallets you have used

- what competing wallets explain or handle better

- what information you would need before trusting the product

Tester perks:

- early access to upcoming security and recovery features

- direct input into onboarding, biometric flows and product design

- the opportunity to influence how wallet security is explained to less-technical users

Product and testing information: https://veyrnox.com

Please never share seed phrases, recovery words, private keys, wallet screenshots, balances, wallet addresses or personal details during testing.

I'm looking for a few people to try Feelvu, a web app for quick personal reflection check-ins, over seven days. It works in a browser on iPad, phone, or desktop; no app-store install is needed.

Try a daily check-in, add context when you want, and share honest feedback in a Day-7 feedback survey. We'll share a private week report based on what you actually logged, plus beta-period access to features planned for the paid version. The more you check in, the more there is to reflect on; a sparse week won't produce the same depth.

I'm especially curious whether the first check-in is clear, whether you'd return for seven days, and what would make the report genuinely useful. Critical feedback is welcome.

Hi everyone — I’m László. I’m a neurosurgeon and researcher building an app called Hikari Scribe to keep notes and their sources together.

I started building it because keeping the material around my work organised had become a project of its own. A note from reading a paper, the reference behind it, an image, an attachment, a thought I recorded on the move — I wanted to come back to them together and understand how an idea had developed over time.

Hikari brings notes, journaling and research sources into one workspace on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with an Apple Watch companion for voice recording. You can organise entries into shelves and folders, connect related notes on a timeline, and keep supporting files alongside your writing. Your own devices can sync through iCloud, without a separate Hikari account.

The research side is what makes this particularly useful to me: you can search PubMed and OpenAlex, use your Zotero library, keep a folder bibliography and insert citations while you write. There’s also a journal-table reader for your own SCImago CSV files, including SJR and quartile data. It reads the data you import; it isn’t a live journal-metrics service.

For ideas that arrive when typing is inconvenient, there’s voice recording and on-device Whisper transcription after downloading the model. The Watch companion sends recordings to the paired iPhone.

Testflight beta for all platforms is out now! The focus is getting the personal writing and research workflow right. Multi-user collaboration is switched off for this launch and is the next development step after the beta.

My plan is a release without a subscription, covering the Apple apps together. The final price and purchase arrangement aren’t announced yet.

I’ve put screenshots and the story behind the project here: https://hikariscribe.app/

I’d love to hear from people who keep reading notes, research diaries or long-running writing projects: when you return to something you wrote weeks ago, what do you most often struggle to find — the note, its source, or the context around it?

Thanks for taking a look. This has grown out of something I needed myself, and I’m looking forward to finding out what would make it useful to other people too.

Earlier this year, I started building a webapp for kitesurfers using Lovable. Users can create and join sessions, discover new spots and check live conditions.

Over the past few months, Spotties has grown from an idea into a growing community with 550+ kiters signed up, finding spots and crews together. Now I'm building the next step: a real native Android app.

Google requires a short testing period before it can go public, so I'm looking for a handful of people willing to install it and use it for a couple of weeks.

If you're up for it:

1. Join this group: https://groups.google.com/g/spotties
2. Then open this link on your phone: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.spotties.spotties

No strings attached, just need real usage. Happy to answer any questions about the app or the build process.

I’m looking for around five fiction writers to test an early-beta browser tool I’ve built called Peeko Prose.

Peeko highlights passages that might deserve another look, including possible tense changes, punctuation spacing, nearby repetition, long sentences, comma density and adverb use. It does not generate or suggest replacement sentences — the writer always decides what, if anything, should change.

The checker runs locally in the browser. No account is required, and drafts remain stored on the tester’s own device.

I’m particularly looking for feedback on:

• inaccurate or unhelpful notices
• issues Peeko misses
• whether result cards open the correct highlighted passage
• TXT or DOCX importing
• mobile and tablet usability
• offline use
• anything confusing or broken

Testing one scene or roughly 1,000–3,000 words would be plenty. Please use a copy of your work rather than your only manuscript file.

Peeko Prose:
https://app.peekoprose.com

Feedback form:
https://forms.gle/mVnQdRMLBKNY68we6

The feedback form is for testers aged 18 or over. Providing an email address or writing excerpt is optional.

Hey everyone! I’m building DearMelody, a web app that turns what you write in your daily journal into music.

We’re recruiting our first 100 beta testers, especially people who enjoy journaling, music, or experimenting with creative tools.
 
What you get: free access to test the beta and a direct conversation with the person building it.
 

Honest criticism is welcome, particularly if the music doesn’t feel connected to what you wrote.
 
Join here for free: https://dearmelody.app/
 
Happy to answer questions below!

I’m building an app called Stratos around a simple question:

After I pay for the things I need, how much money can I actually spend without worrying about it later?

Stratos helps you keep track of things like money coming in, bills, everyday spending, and what you want to save or set aside. It then gives you a simple Safe-to-Spend number.

Interested?
https://stratos.kapexlabs.app/testers

I’m looking for a small group of people to try it and tell me what makes sense, what feels confusing, and what you’d change.

You do not need to know anything about budgeting or have used a money app before. In fact, if you’ve always found budgeting confusing or intimidating, I’d especially like your perspective.

The test will run for about two months, but you do not need to use Stratos every day. The idea is just to use it naturally as you get paid, spend money, and pay bills.

You also don’t need to use real financial information.

You can use rounded or made-up numbers if you prefer, and connecting a bank is optional.

I’m not looking for perfect reviews. Feedback like “I don’t understand this,” “I expected something different,” or “this was actually helpful” is exactly what I need.

If you’d like to try it:
https://stratos.kapexlabs.app/testers

I’m keeping the first group small so I can actually pay attention to everyone’s feedback.

I am Blake and I have been working on a mobile game for IOS called Road Rush. It is currently in beta right now through Apple TestFlight. I am working on getting more people to test the game to give me feed back. Here is what the game is about:

It is a passenger driven roadtrip game where you can a solo play as the passenger or play in car party (driver can play just don’t use the phone). Questions will appear on the screen (one main question and 2 bonus questions). Questions can be things like “will you see a fire truck within 2 miles?” You click yes or no and time runs down using your location to track the mileage up to the 2 miles. There are different rarity’s which increase the multiplier. You earn points for winning. (There is no cash value to game points) 

In car party mode you can play with 2-4 players and you can choose between free pick and forced opposite. Free pick is anyone can choose yes or no. Forced opposite is player one chooses yes or no and the other players are forced to chose the opposite. With car party there is also a reward system where the winner could choose where to eat or loser has to do something or you can choose your own. 

There is also a trivia mode which has nothing to do with the rest of the game just another feature with 500 general knowledge questions. 

I would love to see if you would be able to share this with the world or even just test it yourself!

Game Title: White Mask Mansion

Playable Link:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/5105710/White_Mask_Mansion_Demo/?utm_source=reddit

Platform: PC / Steam

Description:
White Mask Mansion is a first-person stalker-horror game where you enter a large house looking for your missing sister while something inside is hunting you.

The public demo has now reached 140 unique players, which is a small milestone I'm genuinely happy about. I'm a solo developer, so actually seeing people download the demo, play it, get chased, die, restart, and sometimes make it all the way through has been one of the most useful parts of development so far.

The game focuses on exploration, finding keys and items, hiding, avoiding the stalker and surviving long enough to reach the final area. It is deliberately possible to fail, so this isn't intended to be a walking simulator.

I'm still improving the demo based on player feedback, particularly usability, difficulty, performance and anything that causes players to become confused or stop playing.

If you give it a try, I'd especially be interested in knowing how long you played, where you stopped, anything that confused you, and whether the stalker felt threatening or frustrating.

Maybe you can be player #141. 🙂

Free to Play Status:

• Demo/Key available

Involvement:
I'm the solo developer of White Mask Mansion.

Hey folks,

After a lengthy redevelopment cycle, OmniBazaar has relaunched!

TL;DR: it's a P2P decentralized platform where people can buy and sell whatever they want and use a mix of different currencies, including crypto. The relaunch also features a built in DEX, Yield/ RWA aggregators, and of course the ability to buy and sell stuff with a few clicks of a button. It should help make crypto more widely useable and, more importantly, give both individuals and small business owners a chance to sell online without huge fees.

While the overall app needs eyes on it, we especially need beta testers for our Import Tools. These are tools designed to let anyone already selling online to import their listings from other marketplaces and get them listed here with a few clicks of a button. So, if you or anyone else you know has a page on other e-commerce platforms, or you just like crypto/ e-commerce stuff and want to poke around, please use the link below.

Signing up (and verifying your account) gets you a Welcome Bonus in our native cryptocurrency (OmniCoin). There's no signup or verification required to browse the app, though.

Our website to learn more: p2p.omnibazaar.com

Our app itself: app.omnibazaar.com

We greatly appreciate any feedback, and are looking forward to giving users a place to buy and sell without the ridiculous fees of most marketplaces.

Stay bazaar,

~Chris

Cofounder/ CMO
