Day 8: Solopreneur ride along @smoothapp
Rewrote onboarding. Users can now try a conversation before they create an account. Let’s see if this helps with the numbers
Day 7: Solopreneur ride along @smoothapp
Going through analytics I have found a big drop off between first open and sign up. I believe users don’t want to create an account on an app without first trying it out. I will have to probably solve for this
Day 6: Solopreneur ride along.
Today went into engagement farming on reddit and warming up social media accounts. My mistake was to not have already done this beforehand and been ready. Oh well…
Day 4: Solopreneur ride along.
Analytics report 50 users created an account, 3 deleted and a total of 60 conversations. Safe to say at least every user tried 1 conversation. The majority of usage seems to be in negotiating salary.

Day 3: Solopreneur ride along.
I am going to try to document my journey with launching my own apps. I will do my best to stay consistent.
It is day 3 since I launched https://t.co/XEQFzkwLOY. The launch itself happend on @ProductHunt after which I made a few posts on indie subreddits.
Some things I learnt and changed:
- $15 was too high a price point for monthly subscription. I have changed that and I am now experimenting with $10
- I had kept detailed conversation analytics behind a paywall but users wouldn't know what was available without seeing it once. Complete conversation analytics can now be seen only once in the onboarding flow
- Most users opted to try out asking someone out on a date closely followed by asking boss for a raise or negotiate their salary
we're live on Product Hunt and the response is already incredible
reading every single comment. replying to all of them.
if you haven't checked it out yet — would genuinely appreciate your support today

Smooth Operator is LIVE on Product Hunt
practice any difficult conversation with AI before it happens:
- salary negotiations — stop leaving money on the table
- workplace confrontations — stay calm under pressure
- dating scenarios — build confidence before the real thing
- boundary setting — learn to say no without the guilt
AI plays the other person realistically. then coaches you on what to improve.
built solo. shipped with love.
