Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

We are building Data-Oauth, the next version of Oauth/Public SSO. We are first creating a Data Repository from the existing online footprint, then storing this data in Data Pods, and then creating a lot of User-generated Data packets, where users can transfer their data/interests with their consent to other platforms.
As this is uncharted territory, I want some feedback and suggestions on this.
PS: Thanks in Advance.

Hello guys need some feedback on stealth Product(Data-Oauth)

Hello guys need some feedback on stealth Product(Data-Oauth)- Grapevine

I am running a bootstrapped B2C startup, and our Product(app) is in the market, the domain is pure tech, like productivity tools for end users, One thing we are facing problem is acquiring users, as our product is not based on dopamine release we are unable to get good organic growth, I have tried google and Facebook ads but conversion is very slow and not good, as we have also marketing budget concerns due to bootstrap.
Here is more detail of our product: https://grapevine.in/post/2cd2f9d5-b706-4fc2-b13a-33395eca3b6b
I need some actionable advice from fellow tech-enthusiastic people, on how to get users.

PS: We are based in India, and we are providing our APP is free.

Hello guys need some feedback on stealth Product(Data-Oauth) - Grapevine

Need Advice to Get Users for my B2C startup.

Well I am the founder of C2B unfunded startup, we had earlier options to raise funding but investor reputation was not good, right we are not looking for funding and focusing more on generating revenue, our biggest problem is getting organic users because i don't have enough money spent on ads, i know it will be unclear to you guys suggest as you don't know the product, but what the best organic/ cheap ways to get new customers?
PS: Thanks in Advance

How to grow C2B unfunded startup

We already have many platforms which do the same thing but their major problem is wrong/fake data. So one more similar platform is not going to change anything.

It would be revolutionary, if you guys could come up with a way to verify the salaries.

Otherwise it's just adding more noise to the already existing junk data. 

Requesting everyone to please suggest ideas for the same.

Looking for a B2B Saas marketing agency.

Growth Manager

So I have been unemployed for ~2 months now and wanting to do something on my own that is fun, fulfilling and has a scope for monetization

I realised during my job hunt that most recruiters (3P) are clueless about the hiring requirements of the job and usually cold call/ randomly generate leads through basic LinkedIn search. Most of the folks eventually don't hear from them later because they profile didn't fit the need( obviously!)

While not doubting their skills, I realised head hunting could be much more targeted through better classification of JDs and candidates and recruiters could save time both for them and candidates through better screening while improving conversions...

I'm planning to build a marketplace of sorts aimed at matching jr to mid level tech talent  with JDs( you know how generic and open ended they can be!)
I want to start this entire service as free for the current yr at least given the job scenario and later monetize through recruiters and TAs

I have mostly figured out most of the workflows and can get the MVP ready in a couple of days worth of dev work but what I'm skeptical is whether candidates might feel data security as an issue( something that leads to a shrinking candidate pool to pick from)

Feel free to leave your thoughts/ critiques/ feedbacks; good or bad both are welcome

Thanks for your time and double thanks if you took time to comment :)

Suggestions please/ PMF for a Hiring Platform

All the people working in startup in stealth mode how much confidence do you have in your company products? And what is the motivation to join stealth startups ?

I am very serious about this one idea and I think it would be very useful for me and my family.

So, I want to ask the founder and the pms here "How can I validate this idea".

I don't want to jump right into creating this product without some validation.

There is a global competitor for this idea, but they have very small download number around 15k downloads across both platform (apple+android).

I have a budget of 5k ruppee to validate this idea.

How do I validate my idea?

Hi, 
I resigned from my job to do startup. I have no good Idea now.

Anyone have any idea that you really believe will work but you don't have time , energy or motivation to work on.

Can you share it if I also believe in that idea i will work on that. 

If the idea do well or I get funding. You can join me as Co-founder and we will make it big.

Software Developer

I am PM with around 5 yrs of experience. I’m struggling to take my skill to next level. always receive feedback from management that output isn’t good, mostly that UX isn’t good. what can I do to improve my work?

1. Read books ? 
2. Study successful products from outside ?
3. Listen to podcasts 
4. Work with great product people? but hardly these exist 
5. leave this field altogether?
6. Just have patience and keep learning everyday?

Can experienced people share what has worked out well for them? or point me to some directions?

Associate Product Manager

i am product manager with 6yoe and with some good brands. but lately i am wondering if this is peak and future demand of software product manager with no hands on coding experience will keep declining 

i sometime feels that either i have to learn coding (which i am learning) or else find a hard core industry like EV, renewable energy, batteries, semiconductor etc 

whats your thoughts? super curious to learn what you all feel about digital product manager?

also one question where i appreciate your feedback - I have not done MBA yet but contemplating it now to make switch industry to non software. I know this is very non traditional but would love to hear feedback

is software product manager role over?u

What started as an Instagram-inspired social experiment has turned into a startup idea. (Refer: Men https://grapevine.in/post/808462ef-8ae0-4269-aaa3-c683ba1194bb and women https://grapevine.in/post/6bcaeffa-0cac-44a2-98a5-fc7a14786e85 survey)

Few observations:
1. Our generation has moved on from orthodox thinking (baring few people) to more emotional compatibility
2. Men have more worldly expectations, while women seek spiritual features; none are right/wrong as long as they find each other.
3. Very glad that no one 'expected' the partner to take up gendered roles as dictated by society

So, coming to the matchmaking platform. The idea is to have all aspects of life considered - personality, profession, family, demographics, physical attributes, etc. and have a weighted scale against them.

Though I have my doubts here
1. An Introvert will need an extrovert to seek them but will be drained of social battery later. How do they match?
2. Physical attributes pull down people who aren't confident with their looks; that doesn't relate to how good/bad they are as partners. But without pictures, it will be a risky surprise element.
3. Prevent parents from creating accounts on children's behalf. Probably a social media log-in

Share your thoughts on the compatibility algorithm and the problems we may face.

P.S. I am not a techie, will need someone to actually build this. Will take care of marketing.
Let's help someone find their soulmate ❤️

P.P.S. If this takes off, I will change my username to TimaSaparia

[Hypothetical] What creative ideas can the GV team implement to utilise Grapes?

I think hope, aka hopium, works well as a product and a business in a country like India. Example are Naukri.com, shaadi.com, jeevansaathi, dating apps etc etc. 

The current wave of hope in this country is validation that whatever I am doing (be it in my job, startup, business, partner, or health) is correct, and some players have worked on this insight and made a decent business out of it.

Working on the same insight, I have built an astro bot to do customer research and gather feedback. It would be very helpful if the community could share feedback and be ruthless about it. 

https://wa.me/message/XQ6DYPPUJYZCC1


I am looking for feedback on the entire flow (dead flow), output, and concept in general. My DMs are open to anything and everything you can think of in this space.

Even better if you are convinced that a decent business can be built out of this insight or in this industry.
