The operating system for your next big idea.
Capture, evaluate, and pursue startup concepts in one private workspace. Built for founders, operators, and product teams who turn signals into shipped work.
Completely free budget tracker
My completely free budget tracking app just hit 12,000 daily active users. No subscription, no premium tier, just a simple budget tracker that works. Built it because every other app wanted $10/month for basic features.
Tinder but for music
Swipe on songs to discover new music. Right for vibe, left for skip. The algorithm learns what you actually like (not what Spotify thinks you like). Bonus: match with people who have similar music taste. Could be a dating thing or just finding concert buddies.
Goal tracking for friends
Goal tracking for friends - shared progress, reminders, celebrations. My best friend and I live in different cities. We want to stay accountable to personal goals but weekly calls are hard to maintain. An app for mutual accountability.
Photo cleanup as TikTok feed
Turn boring photo cleanup into a TikTok-style random memory feed. Instead of scrolling through 10,000 photos to delete duplicates, just swipe through random photos. Swipe up to keep, down to delete. It's actually fun and you rediscover old memories.
Bulk email unsubscriber
Connect your inbox, see all newsletters you're subscribed to, one-click unsubscribe from everything you don't read.
Friend therapy app for men
What could help men open up and talk to their friends more? Women seem to do this naturally. Started doing 'friend therapy' sessions with my buddies after we all had an injury - weekly talks helped way more than any self-help book. An app to help other guys initiate these talks.

IdeaBase turned my scratch pad into a real pipeline. The AI evaluation surfaced positioning I'd completely missed.
