It's hard to take something like that seriously. However, if that's something that people like nowadays, more power to them.
What are your plans on developing this further? Who do you see as a potential user of this product? How does the product intend on making money and remaining profitable?
The challenge being that this type of app isn't well known, so has been difficult targeting ads / SEO. I'm also finding the usefulness of other notepad calculators being that that they're desktop apps, so I'm investigating creating an Electron desktop app (plus gives the advantage of the App Store as another channel)
In terms of monetisation, most probably a freemium model where a user can create 5 sheets, and if they want more it could be a $5/month product. If it gets in an organisation it could scale but one step at a time ;)
I've also optimised those templates to be indexed as landing pages so if there's enough traffic, advertising could be another option.
Finally, has been in the back of my mind but potentially trying to hit the education market, though I'm not really familiar in the space so that's a bit further down the list.
It's a little hard to explain but I've got some examples which are hopefully relevant to the community
- https://www.figr.app/s/RUNWAY - An example to work out your burn rate / runway - https://www.figr.app/s/LTVCAC - An LTV/CAC calculator
Has been a fun project to work on, and a great way to see where modern web stacks are currently at. Of course opened to feedback, whether it be technical or product related.
Thanks!
Edit: I wonder if it can display into charts, or work with date and time, or send notifications.
For example:
Netflix $5 - Due every 5th of month - Alert me on email / sms
Laundry - Due every monday
Exercise - Every day 7pm
Didn't think about notification though but sounds like a good idea!
I also created a roadmap too in case anyone wants to have a look
