I had a desire to create a SaaS application even before I started programming, that is one of the reasons why I ventured into the world of web deve...

Great job well done!
I'd say I'd like to understand the pricing before signing up for an account, even if it is free. I would not have signed up had I not read this post with that information lacking. I find the layout clean, but the black-and-white palette is rather jarring.
Thank you for your feedback @miketalbot, much appreciated!
I will add a pricing on landing page, that's a great point!
And yeah I need to add some colors, you are right on that.
Thank you.
As another frontend developer I love the UI and how simple you have kept things on the UI side of things. They are IMO exactly as they should be. Also, seems like you have done your homework regarding marketing stuff too, since you have correctly positioned all the important stuff that represent what your app does right at the top of the page, as it should be.
One suggestion I could make is to offer API support. So I can utilize your service to connect that with other services. That will increase the market for your app right away and you can keep selling credits just because of external services integrated with yours.
I tried keeping the UI as simple as possible to not confuse users, I thought it was too simple so thanks a lot for your comment. And I guess I did research marketing stuff regarding a landing page, I hope it converts visitors to registered users and maybe even to customers if they like the product.
API support is a brilliant idea, thank you. I will have to expand to it once I get some more AI models running.
Cool AI site. I would prefer to have the vertical sidebar on the right side. Would be interested to see the detailed API usages on the UI. Also, if you would provide an API for the consumers, that would be really awesome. Please note that there is a huge business for the API. But you need to do it right by building the SDKs and also more than anything, you should provide the free credits based on the month-to-month basis, so the users are encouraged to try more. Not to mention the marketing techniques to grab the users :)
I highly encourage you to please prepare a nice blog post and also a detailed write-up on theresanaiforthat, so everyone is aware of your AI startup.
Competition
I see a tough competition or a challenge in the AI world as there are ton of 3rd party services and apps already available.
So the challenge for you is, if someone or a startup could easily do a single click deployment via Vercel or host it by themselves is a big question?
Please find the open source options.

I really have to figure out the way to provide API and I am putting that on my roadmap.
Thank you for letting me know about the AI website. Do you know if google picks up this post and the one I write for "There's an AI for that" for SEO ranking?
Yeah there's a huge market for this AI service, but I am planning to expand with other AI services and some other cool stuff that'll separate me from the market, and make users keep using my app instead of going on multiple different apps. And other than that not everyone has technical knowledge to deploy the app by themselves nor they have time, so I guess that's a plus for me. It all depends to who I market the app to.
Thank you a lot for your feedback @ranjancse.
You would have to come up with a ton of blog posts marketed via your domain for Google to build organic search results. Any other aspects are just alternatives which you have no control.
Something unique with the API is highly recommended. When I mentioned the single click deployment, technically speaking those are not users but instead small to mid-scale companies who could easily spin up :) Unless you bring out some unique thing in the market with the mix and match of other useful ones for the users to stick to your website or a platform makes sense.
Okay, I understand. Thank you for explaining and thanks so much for your feedback.
I will prioritize an API on my roadmap.
Yeah you're right, it's even tougher to make users pay for a package I offer. But yeah my goal for now is just to get 100 people and get some feedback.
And yes, AI model does need some work.
Thank you for your comment.
Congrats lunching the product, I know from personal experience it's a proud moment. Few things I suggest:
I tweaked the css quickly, here's the result (the gradient in the bg could finish quicker at the top though)
Thank you for your feedback.
Design does need some improvements, you are right on that.
But can you please tell me how did you open this website in light mode?
I hope for everyone else is in dark mode, because that's how it is supposed to be.
It opened in light mode for my by default. I don't have anything that's forcing light theme on my OS, and I can get to dark mode via DevTools.
Okay thanks @motorhead777 and @andyjud for help. This is going on top of my todo list. I had no clue this was happening.
I see it on white background too, not dark. Dark looks better.
@geniot and @corners2wall after further inspection, I think the AI model looks like it does at the moment because I broke it with compression. That was the last thing I was doing because I needed page to load faster and files to be small.
At least I hope it's the problem 🤞🏼Working on it right now.
Thank you for letting me know 😊
Good luck
Thank you a lot!
Hi, nothing to say about the layout, pretty clean and into the standards and perfectly functional, thought the test I have done didn't modify the image, probably there wasn't anything to fix 🙂.
Maybe it lacks a bit of an identity (logo is not very noticeable).
I wanted to ask you the choice of using the Google auth provider only, doesn't restrict it too much users? Or is it on your roadmap maybe .. I guess you used next-auth.
Congrats anyway!
Hey, I have had some issues with AI model and just pushed some changes so maybe your image will get modified now.
I could add a logo somewhere on the main screen of the app, that is a great idea actually. It will look much better and professional.
I have used NextAuth, you are correct on that. Since it's my first time tinkering with it, and connecting to the database and all that fun stuff, I have decided to use only Google provider for now. But I will definitely add some more options in the future, as soon as my app becomes stable, especially the AI part.
Thank you so much for your comment 😊
No magic. Just see IMAGE DITHERING. It's simple algo that looks like magic.
Yeah AI model does need some work indeed. Thank you for your comment.
Good job! Apparently a bit slow to load, have you tried the chrome lighthouse?
That could be due to cold start on GCP 🫣
I do plan on turning that off sometime soon.
Congratulations 🎉, it looks fantastic,
You choose right stack for this project, because I am also working on my first SaaS app which is powered by AI.
Although my app is currently available on convoform.com, I still want to make more improvements before releasing it. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
I also created one Frulow.com. Feedback appreciated. Stack remix, react
