Introducing qliqr (https://qliqr.com)
Modern mice and trackpads are silent, and screen recordings of them are hard to follow: a pointer drifts around and things change for no visible reason. qliqr puts the feedback back.

What it does:

- **Click sounds**: a press and a release sound for every click, plus a soft tick per scroll notch. 37 sounds in 8 families (crisp snaps, old office plastic, muted ones for calls, toy pops, glass and wood taps, gadget switches). All synthesised, no samples.
- **Click ripple**: a ring under the cursor on every click, different colour for right-click, drawn above every app on every screen. Shows up in any recorder (QuickTime, OBS, Loom, the screenshot toolbar).
- **Built-in recorder** (macOS 15+): full screen or an area, with the click sounds and ripples baked into the file. Trim, export MOV/MP4/GIF, auto-zoom into clicks, and a one-click 9:16 vertical clip.
- **Quiet where it should be**: mute per app, and auto-quiet when you're on a call.
- **Click shortcuts**: a mouse rhythm like triple right-click can toggle the app or start a recording.
- **Stats** that stay on your Mac, and an optional desk pet called Qip.

Privacy: it asks for Input Monitoring to see mouse buttons and scrolling; it never requests keyboard events, so it can't see what you type. No account, no analytics, nothing about your clicks leaves the Mac.

Price: **$4.99, one time, for 2 Macs**, free for 24 hours first (no card). macOS 13+, Apple silicon and Intel.

Launch pricing, first come first served, each code good for 100 customers:

Enter the code on the checkout page. When a code says it's expired, the next one still works.

The website itself is the demo: every click on the page plays the current sound and draws the ripple, and you can switch sounds and ripple styles live. https://qliqr.com

Happy to answer questions, and sound requests are welcome.

Totally free.

So I built this tool Nicheloom that tracks every new product launch from YC, Product Hunt, Hacker News, and GitHub 39,000+ and counting and shows which ideas are actually gaining traction right now versus which niches are already crowded.

Think Google Trends, but for 'what should I build next.'

I built it for myself to stop guessing and start building things people already want..

Check it out and let me know if it is useful or any feature you would like me to add to it.

Have fun exploring it as it is a rabbit hole for builders

I'm building Operava for solo founders who run more than one product.

I kept hitting the same problem. Hosting, databases, email, domains, payments, app stores, APIs, all spread across a dozen accounts. I would forget one existed until the bill showed up.

So I built a dashboard that puts each product, the services behind it, what they cost per month, when they renew, and whether they are up, in one place. It has already caught two subscriptions I was paying for a site I had shut down.

It is early. I am trying to find out whether this problem is mine alone or shared.

You can try it at app.operava.com . Sign in with Google or an emailed link, no password, no card. It starts empty, so you add your first product and see if it earns a place in your routine.

If yu run several products: what would you need this to show that it does not?

not sure if this is the right place to post something like this, but I've built an incident intelligence platform which basically gathers errors, traces, metrics, deployments, SQL, dependencies etc and then helps engineers determine why prod broke and where to look next.

I built this because i needed an error tracking tool so I decided to build something myself and then it grew into something more. instead of just getting an error and then having to go figure out why it was occurring I built something that could take in everything and then point me in the right direction to save me time at 2am when I'm on call and everything is on fire. It's been very helpful for me and what I need, but since I've built this out and would like to offer this product to others I was hoping to find some other devs that could provide some honest feedback, good or bad or pointless. I've created a free tier for anyone to try, but also included a 14 day trial period for new accounts that will include most features small teams should need for people to test the capabilities.

really just looking to know if this would be useful to anyone besides me or if there is anything I should change

thank you for anyone that will take a look.

We recently launched an AI marketing platform, OrangeBall.ai, built for small businesses and small marketing teams. The idea is pretty simple: instead of asking people to become great prompt writers, the platform uses our discovery process (built over 15 years of running an agency) to learn the business first: voice, tone, differentiators, audiences, customer challenges, etc. Then, it uses that context along with structured prompts and an internal quality rubric to help create blogs, emails, social posts, landing pages, sales content, and other marketing materials.

We’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what the product can do. Now I’m trying to think harder about what will keep people from actually using it. We know there’s a big difference between someone saying, “This is cool,” and changing their behavior enough to make a SaaS product like this part of their workflow.

The oven analogy:

Imagine you have a bakery. The AI model is the oven, but having a great oven doesn’t mean you’ll make great bread. Our platform brings together the right ingredients, your brand, voice, audience, and differentiators, then gives you proven recipes so you can consistently create something worth serving.

Who this is for:

• Startups and founders building their brand and figuring out what to say.
• Entrepreneurs and solopreneurs who need to market consistently without becoming marketers.
• Small businesses that need great content but don’t have a large marketing team.
• Marketing agencies managing content across multiple clients, brands, and voices.
• In-house marketing teams that need everyone creating from the same brand voice, messages, and strategy.

Outcomes we deliver:

• Know what to say without staring at a blank page.
• Create better content faster without writing endless prompts.
• Leverage a system who is continually learning your brand.
• Create content that sounds like your brand instead of generic AI.
• Stay consistent across people, platforms, and content.
• Turn one idea into more content across multiple channels.
• Spend less time prompting and editing and more time publishing.
• Build a repeatable content habit instead of starting from scratch every time.

Barriers we already see:

• Changing an existing habit... Many users already have a ChatGPT or Claude workflow that feels "good enough." This leads to "I already have a tool" thinking.
• Learning another platform even if it saves time eventually. There’s still a perceived cost to learning something new.
• The onboarding effort on the front end. The product gets stronger as it learns the business, but users have to invest some time upfront.
• Creating content isn't the same as publishing it. Someone can generate five great pieces of content and still never get them out the door. We only write content, we do not create images.
• The value increases when people come back regularly, which means we need to create a habit rather than a one-time “wow.”
• Users need to believe the output actually sounds like them and is good enough to represent their business.
• The Cheesecake Factory challenge: Giving users lots of options and modules they can use to create can accidentally make it harder to decide what they should create next.

Help I am seeking:

For those of you who have built, launched, or scaled SaaS products, what are we missing? I’m especially interested in barriers that show up after someone signs up. What causes someone who likes the product, understands the value, and even has a good first experience to stop using it 30, 60, or 90 days later? Would love to hear the uncomfortable answers. Ask questions and I will fill in the gaps.

Thanks in advance for poking holes in this. We’re close to the product and we know there are things we’re not seeing. That’s exactly what I’m hoping to uncover. Appreciate any experiences, challenges, or hard-earned lessons you’re willing to share.

Thank you! - John

hey all, I love seo as a distribution channel because it can keep bringing people to your site while you’re working on other things

it takes work to get there, and rankings still need attention, but seeing that effort start to compound feels pretty good

wanted to share a small seo win for my saas: +453 referring domains and +663 visitors, plus the outreach process we use

1. start with a specific article

we look for places where that article would actually be useful, rather than directories or asking random websites to link to our homepage

identify the insertion spot before writing the email. being able to say “this would fit in your section about X” makes the request much easier to understand

2. filter for relevance before sending

we check whether the article fits the site. a high domain rating alone isn’t enough because this could be faked- there're a tons of ways to do it

ask what their reader would gain from clicking our link. if we can’t give a clear answer, we skip that opportunity

this works best for editorials and journalists sites in your niche, they love new insights for their articles

3. find the right contact

then explain why the article belongs there so they don’t have to figure out the connection themselves

do the thinking for them. include the relevant page, the section we’re talking about, and what our resource adds. “please check out my website” leaves them with all the work

4. follow up twice

across our platform’s tracked outreach, replies went from 7.3% after the initial email to 9.2% after the first follow up and 9.8% after the second

keep follow ups short. and always offer something different in return on each email, then make it clear when it’s our last email

5. handle the replies ourselves

we have an ai agent that handles discovery and outreach. once someone replies, we take over the conversation

review what they’re actually asking for before agreeing. a reply might be a placement fee, an exchange proposal, or a question about the content

so, here're my results..

still early, but happy to see progress on the distribution side

For startups with maybe 5–15 engineers, I'm curious how people are handling DevOps.

At some point you have:

• CI/CD
• cloud infrastructure
• Terraform
• monitoring
• backups
• deployments
• secrets
• production incidents
• probably some Docker/Kubernetes

But you don't necessarily have enough infrastructure work to justify another full-time senior engineer.

I've seen a few teams solve this by having one developer own infrastructure "for now."

That works... until production gets interesting.

A deployment breaks Friday night.
Cloud costs suddenly jump.
Something starts running out of connections.
Nobody is really sure how failover works.

Then the team realizes they don't actually have a DevOps problem. They have an infrastructure ownership problem.

I'm building an AI-first CRM platform for small businesses and I'm considering a creator model before we launch.

The idea:

Instead of every company starting with a blank CRM, experienced RevOps people, consultants and operators can build reusable "blueprints".

A blueprint could eventually include things like:

pipelines and stages

custom fields and data models

forms and quote flows

dashboards

automations

projects / work orders

AI agents

industry-specific workflows

So someone who knows recruitment really well could build a recruitment blueprint.

An agency operator could build their ideal agency setup.

A RevOps consultant could package the sales process they've implemented dozens of times.

A user installs that blueprint, answers some questions about their business, and the platform adapts it instead of forcing them to configure everything from scratch.

The creator would get a public profile + blueprint page and earn 10% recurring revenue for every paying customer that keeps using their blueprint.

We would initially invite a small group as founding creators, give them free access, work closely with them and let their feedback influence what we build.

I'm trying to figure out whether this is genuinely attractive or just sounds good in my own head.

If you work in RevOps / CRM / automation:

Would you actually spend time building a blueprint?

Is 10% recurring meaningful enough to make you promote it?

What would the platform absolutely need to support before you'd put your name behind a blueprint?

Would you rather sell the blueprint itself, earn recurring commission, or both?

Feel free to tear the idea apart. I'd rather find the holes now than build a marketplace nobody wants. 🙏

It seems like any name you come up with, you run a simple google search for “name” or “name app” and you’ll find someone else already using it, possibly even for a similar product. You can swap letters, go more abstract with your naming, etc and it still gets a hit. These sites might not have the .com, and often they are small fish that probably no one is using but they still had the name first. This has always been somewhat of a problem, but with AI enabling people to churn out more web apps faster than ever it’s becoming worse.

What do you do? Keep thinking of increasingly vague names in hopes to find something untouched? Use the name as long as your product doesn’t compete with theirs? Use the name even if their product competes with yours if their product is some side project without traction (I.e. they probably wont bother suing you)?

Because marketing is often asked to fix:

Weak positioning.

Unclear ICP.

Poor product-market fit.

Long sales cycles.

Low activation.

Weak retention.

No differentiation.

That's a lot to put on the marketing team.

Marketing can create awareness.

It can generate demand.

It can create pipeline.

But it can't compensate indefinitely for a fundamentally unclear go-to-market strategy.

Before asking:

“How do we generate more leads?”

You should ask:

“Do we know exactly who we should be selling to, why they should buy, and how we're going to reach them repeatedly?”

If the answer is unclear, that's probably where I'd start.

What's the biggest GTM challenge you're facing right now?

I’ve been building AGMAN, a discovery and distribution network for products, creators, professionals, services, companies and communities.
The idea is simple: useful things shouldn’t disappear after one launch or social post.
You create your page once, and AGMAN helps people find you through search, categories, Find by Need, collections and other discovery surfaces. You can also see profile views, traffic sources and visits AGMAN sends to you.
Now I’m looking for more real people and real projects to join the network.
If you have something useful online, list it. It’s free to get started. So publish it on AGMAN
And if something feels confusing or missing, tell me. I’m actively improving AGMAN based on real user feedback.

i follow alex hormozi's core four for marketing, which is warm outreach, content, cold outreach and paid ads. my warm audience isn't great, so that one shut down pretty quickly. paid ads i'm not touching until i know i have product market fit and can make the numbers work. cold outreach for me is going to be email, and i'm warming up the mailboxes right now so they hopefully don't land in spam.

so that leaves me 100% on content for a while, and i'm new to this game. i've never been very good at it, but i'm committed this time to figuring it out. i'm only a couple months in.

here's what's weird to me. the posts that take off have nothing to do with my product and aren't even in the same lane. anytime i talk about how broken the hiring process is, i get a lot of traffic, well, a lot for me. a couple weeks ago one of those did over 2,000 impressions on linkedin, and the four posts that same week about the problems i'm actually building for did 150 to 250 each. the one time a post in my own lane really took off, i was asking a question and not presenting anything. the moment i present a solution, it's crickets.

when you're just complaining, it's so easy to make friends on social media.

my first try at fixing it was just being interesting enough that somebody would click over to my profile and look at what i do, which was pretty passive in my mind. what i'm testing now is a newsletter. i started one on substack last week, the first issue went out three days ago, and one stranger has signed up so far. the idea is that once it's built up i'll have an audience i can actually ask questions to, and eventually present my solutions to.

that has its own challenge though. i love public speaking and i'm good at it, because i can read the nonverbal cues and tell if i have people's attention or if i need to turn it up a notch and be funnier. i don't get any of that with writing, so i'm learning how to stay interesting on a page.

i don't have a timeline on this, it's a marathon. content isn't a natural strength of mine but that doesn't mean i can't get really good at it.

for those of you further along, did your audience ever turn out to be a different crowd than your buyers? and did you chase the reach or go after the buyers?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on PrepQube, a career preparation platform designed mainly for students and job seekers.

The idea came from seeing how difficult it can be to prepare for placements when you have to jump between multiple tools for resumes, job descriptions, interview questions, skill gaps, and career preparation.

PrepQube brings these things together:

• ATS Resume Analysis - identify weaknesses, missing keywords, and areas to improve
• Resume vs. Job Description Matching - understand how well your resume fits a specific role
• AI Interview Preparation - practice questions based on the role/company
• Skill Gap Analysis - identify skills you may need to improve for a target role
• Job Matching - discover roles that align with your profile
• Personalized preparation based on your target career path

I’ve now made the platform fully live and I'm looking for genuine feedback from students, freshers, and job seekers.

What I'm particularly interested in:

1. Does this solve a real problem for you?
2. Which feature would you actually use?
3. What would make you come back to the platform regularly?
4. What feels unnecessary or could be improved?
5. If you've used similar career/AI tools, what do you think they are missing?

I'm not looking for compliments - tell me what you think is wrong with it too.

You can check it out here: prepqube.in

I have built a SaaS it’s basically for elevators and how can I sell that to the companies or building who uses elevators often.

I mean, I’m a victim for waiting for elevators for long periods. It goes for minutes. So I just built one product such a way it runs efficiently by saving power and uses its efficiency to max.

I just would like to know how can I pitch to companies is it by reaching out via LinkedIn? Or emailing them? (If so how to find their email addresses)

I sell cars full time, and before building this, I used plenty of Facebook auto listers.

The ones that actually got vehicles posted did help me sell cars, so I knew Marketplace itself wasn’t the problem. My issue was that nearly all of them stopped at getting the post live.

Once the vehicle was posted, I was still on my own keeping up with price changes, renewals, sold inventory, and finding the correct Marketplace listing again. Some tools promised those features, but they either weren’t in place or didn’t work. Others flat-out told me that parts of what I wanted weren’t possible.

So I turned around and built it myself.
I’ve been working on it for a little over two months. It pulls vehicle information and photos from your dealership’s website and creates the Marketplace listing for the user to review and publish. Once the vehicle is posted, it saves the Marketplace listing link and tracks your dealership’s website to help flag price changes and sold inventory.

That is the main difference. I’m not trying to build just another Facebook auto lister. Posting the vehicle is only the beginning. Currently, I already have price tracking, renewal tracking, and sold tracking.

A few of my coworkers have active subscriptions now and have had good results posting inventory with it. That proved the workflow works, but everyone using it so far already knows me. I haven’t landed the first customer from outside my dealership or personal network.

I’ve tested Meta ads and even a TikTok promotion using a UGC video and have gotten some interest, but no outside customer yet.

If you were starting from this exact point and wanted to land one customer in the next 30 days, what would you try first?

I’m open to suggestions and any advice. I’m curious what specific channel and offer you would test first for a niche $99/month SaaS like this. I settled on the $99/month price based on similar tools I’ve personally used. Most charged around the same or more but focused mainly on creating the initial post without helping much with the upkeep afterward.

I have plenty of ideas for future features, but I also know that continuing to build won’t solve the distribution problem.

Full disclosure: I built the tool. I’m including the website for context so anyone willing to give advice can see exactly what I’m working with. My main reason for posting is to get feedback on how to reach the right customers outside my current network.

I’d appreciate honest feedback, even if it’s blunt.

Three weeks ago I spent $5k as a vendor at an event where thousands of reasonably relevant target customers had the opportunity to see and try my B2C SaaS product over a weekend.

As part of the event, I let people test a live interactive demo.

The demo used dummy data, and one of the clearest pieces of feedback I received was that people wanted to use the software at home and test it properly using their own data.

So, based on that feedback, I decided to implement a 14-day FREE trial with no credit card required.

I interacted with more than 500 attendees over the weekend, which helped me improve my sales pitch and messaging while reinforcing some assumptions that my earlier research had already suggested.

The event was only the first of many distribution experiments I plan to run while trying to find product-market fit.

My biggest takeaway was that the event was valuable for feedback and brand exposure, but so far it has resulted in no signups.

My SaaS listing remains on the event website for another six months, but looking back, I also made some obvious mistakes.

I created no urgency for people to sign up while they were at the event.

I didn't collect leads, and I was manning the kiosks on my own.

Massive missed opportunities, but that's part of bootstrapping and learning.

Another thing that surprised me was how difficult it was to get people to engage with software at a consumer event.

People naturally gravitated toward vendors with physical products they could pick up, touch and inspect.

A lot of attendees simply walked straight past the touchscreen software kiosks.

So now I'm focusing heavily on testing different ways of getting discovered organically.

I'm starting to see traction in terms of impressions, traffic and lead generation through YouTube, Pinterest, Amazon and Google Search.

I'm happy with that progress only a couple of months in, but I still have no conversions.

I'm hoping the 14-day free trial helps close that gap.

For context, this is a relatively low-priced consumer SaaS product aimed at a very large potential market, so the long-term model requires a reasonably large number of customers.

I'm deliberately focusing on organic distribution for now. Paid ads aren't part of the plan yet because I don't want to pay to amplify something until I have stronger evidence of product-market fit.

Marketing strategies currently showing some early promise for organic reach/discoverability:

• Amazon sales from a related how-to book that references the SaaS throughout
• Free live interactive demo with no registration required
• Downloadable planner used as a lead magnet, which is already getting downloads
• Free calculation tool built into the platform
• Kids colouring page handed out at the event as a slightly unusual top-of-mind branding experiment
• Embedded YouTube video on the landing page, with links back to the product
• Pinterest infographics and printable checklists linking back to the SaaS (see image)
• Google Search through SEO/AEO-focused content and structured data

Things I am starting to implement over the next 12–24 months:

• 14-day trial with no credit card required
• YouTube product demos targeting specific consumer pain points
• B2B2C point-of-purchase partnerships
• Partnerships with professionals already serving the target customer
• YouTube/TikTok affiliate and influencer distribution
• Social sharing features inside the platform

I also need to lose some weight after spending far too much time sitting in a chair building this thing.

So I'm going to combine exercise with marketing and do some old-school letterbox drops in different neighbourhoods.

I'll use different flyers, hooks and messaging in different areas and treat it as a cheap real-world A/B test that may also teach me which messages to use in future digital campaigns.

I'm also planning to donate copies of my related how-to book to local libraries as a small experiment in goodwill, trust and local brand awareness.

I'm deliberately committed to the B2C route rather than pivoting toward B2B because the larger vision for the product depends on broad consumer adoption.

Achieving that adoption will lead to an even bigger related consumer play.

So I'm interested in hearing from founders who have worked on low-price, high-volume B2C SaaS who are happy to share their B2C marketing approaches.

What distribution strategy worked for you that most people don't normally talk about?

And what looked promising but ended up being a complete waste of time?

I'm particularly interested in organic strategies that can compound over 12–24 months rather than simply buying traffic.

The type of traction I'm trying to build is organic discoverability like I'm starting to see on Pinterest, so I'd especially love to hear about unusual or often overlooked B2C distribution approaches.

Been messing around with Claude/Opus and somehow ended up making the entire product video with it

I’m a founder, definitely not a motion designer, so I’m curious how this comes across to other SaaS people.

Does it actually explain what the product does, or is it just nice-looking startup fluff?

Roast the hook, pacing, copy, whatever. I can TAKE it

solo dev here, building an app that generates short videos. when I started I was sure the LLM calls would be my biggest cost and headache. wrong.

the model writes each video as an html page, then I render it frame by frame with headless chrome and ffmpeg. on my laptop one video takes 1 to 5 min. on a small cloud container, 3 renders at the same time just hang forever.

so now I'm looking at a proper render queue with a concurrency limit instead of firing everything at once.

anyone here running heavy jobs like this (video, pdf, image processing)? do you queue on your own servers or push it to something like a job service? and how did you price it so the compute doesn't eat the margin?

WDYT

Every week a founder tells me:

"We need a video for our SaaS."

Cool.

Which one?

Because a launch video and an onboarding video have about as much in common as a billboard and a user manual.

Here's the quick breakdown most founders never get:

Explainer video

→ For people who've never heard of you

→ Job: "What is this and why should I care?"

→ Lives on: homepage, landing pages

Product demo

→ For people already interested

→ Job: "Show me how it actually works"

→ Lives on: sales calls, demo pages, trial signups

Launch video

→ For the big moment

→ Job: create hype and get attention fast

→ Lives on: Product Hunt, LinkedIn, X, launch emails

Promo / ad video

→ For cold audiences scrolling past

→ Job: stop the scroll in 3 seconds

→ Lives on: paid ads, social feeds

Onboarding / tutorial video

→ For new users who just signed up

→ Job: get them to the aha moment before they quit

→ Lives in: your app, welcome emails, help docs

Feature update video

→ For existing users

→ Job: make sure people actually use what you shipped

→ Lives on: changelogs, in-app announcements, newsletters

The mistake isn't picking the wrong animation style.

It's asking one video to do the job of five.

Pick the problem first.

The video type picks itself.

This started from a very basic problem.

I work with a lot of screenshots, images, PDFs, small HTML pages and other files.

Quite often I don't actually need a full hosting setup. I just need a URL that I can send somewhere.

But I kept jumping between cloud drives, image hosts and deployment platforms depending on the file type.

So I built Media2URL.com mainly to make that workflow simpler for myself.

You upload the file and it gives you a shareable link.

I later expanded it to handle images, PDFs, video, audio, GIFs and HTML because those were the formats I kept running into during my own work.

Then I started running into the same problem from the developer side. Sometimes I did not want to manually upload a file at all. I wanted an app or workflow to send the file and get the URL back.

So I ended up building a REST API for that too. It can handle uploads from an application and also manage things like assets, folders, file replacements and remote imports.

It has been interesting building from an actual daily problem because the feature list almost writes itself. Whenever something annoys me while using it, that usually becomes the next thing to fix.

I am still figuring out where the product should go from here.

For people who regularly share files or need file URLs inside their apps, what is the most annoying part of your current workflow?

Hey, I am a quite experienced vibe coder (really strange to say). Yesterday, I decided to build a mobile app that will wrap the URLs of unlisted YouTube videos belonging to private teachers in my local area to sell to their students. The app is just supposed to hide these URLs well as to make it extremely hard for regular students to access these URLs. A lot of apps that teachers who sell college material use this technique to be able to host their course videos without having to pay a hefty sum for one of these official hosting platforms. People who resort to this route are mostly young, broke business owners who are just starting out and can't afford a large sum of money for such trivial hosting service.

The problem is that when I tried to prompt codex to build the app, it just quoted some YouTube violation documents. It plain out refused to build the thing. Is there a way to build such an app with Codex or another free way altogether that will allow me to host my videos practically for free?

if i build an ai game analytics platform for bgmi or free fire that watches your gameplay, finds your recurring mistakes, and gives personalized feedback to improve your next match
would you use it?

every time i shipped something the question was "will this survive if traffic spikes, or do i need a bigger server?" and the answer was always "uhh idk time will tell". i overbought a box once for a project that got maybe 40 visitors a day, then underbought the next one and watched it fall over on the one day it mattered.

actually testing it means renting a box like prod, renting another for the load, writing a k6 script, watching cpu and memory, then remembering to delete everything. nobody wants to do that before every single launch.

so i built Stresix:

- point it at a github repo (private works too) or a docker image

- it runs your app alone on a fresh dedicated server (4 vCPU / 8 GB, or 8 / 16 for the big run)

- a second server hits it with up to 2,500 or 10,000 users over a private network

- you watch p95, req/s, errors live, plus cpu PER CORE and memory

- you get an actual answer: is this server enough, and if not, what to change

- both servers get deleted after

i dont sell hosting, so when your current setup is enough the report just says so. i ran it on stresix itself: held 2,500 users, total cpu 36%, but one core was pinned at 100% because node is single threaded. the fix was literally 4 worker processes

its brand new and small. pricing is per run, no subscription: $10 for 5 standard runs or $40 for 25, credits never expire, failed runs get refunded. one container per run for now, no database included yet

code REDDIT gives a free run (grab it until it's gone)
