Along with a friend, I made an app for getting team feedback after the team meetings. It was done in short span during holidays for a hackathon. Also submitted here. Got some feedback but not many sign ups. Since I am not good at marketing what I did, we dropped the idea.

Had some pivot plans to change it to be a customer feedback platform for folks who are always mobile and dependent on their calendars while meeting with their customers. Not much enthusiasm left, hence dropped.

Every now and then would see something and get inspiration to reignite this but didn't go back.


I had done couple of projects before and one of them was somewhat successful. I made around $1.5k from that. Giftcardzilla an aggregator for discounted gift cards. I had to shut it down after Google Penguin update.

Currently building AppsUlagam.com (apps world) as a mobile app discovery site for apps with Tamil language content.



Senior BI/ETL Engineer working with DataStage and OBIEE.

Working on www.appsulagam.com : "Tamil language" content based mobile app discovery site. Learning Python, machine learning and text analysis for this project. Would appreciate any feedback/comments/help.

Interesting. What you did for marketing this?


Thanks for comment :-)


Can you please elaborate on privacy issue? We are capturing the responses in a way that the managers will not know who gave the response. Only aggregated responses are shown to the team managers.

Of course, this will only work with a team size more than 5 people.


Our intention is to ask for the survey after your daily sprint status meetings or the weekly status update meetings.


Thanks for your motivating feedback. I haven't put a lot of effort on the website and had put up a basic site.


I hope I didn't sound derisive. Your target market is HR/PI departments in small to medium sized companies and your website should reflect that. The kind of developers that are in a position to implement this type of solution don't work at the kind of companies that need it.


Honest & constructive feedback are always welcome.

You made a good point. We are trying to target the team managers who want to take control of their team's productivity by monitoring their happiness metric.
