One of the reasons I add the free membership is to make WIP available to a wider audience.

With regards to purchasing power parity, I wonder to what extent purchasing power of indie makers correlates with their geographic location.

On the one hand we have many people from affluent countries traveling to those with a lower cost of living, and other hand the people that grew up in a poorer country still compete in the same global market for the same customer dollars.

✅ You can now mute users. Might add projects/keywords later if muting users isn't enough

I see. That would indeed require a many other data sources as well. Not sure that's a direction I'm willing to go, but perhaps I can provide WIP as a data source so service offering these kind of services. (I think ChatGPT will do this at some point)

Ah i see. Hmm for WIP data related questions, I can think of: how much % tasks spent on coding vs marketing, which time of year am I most productive, any patterns of highs and lows of work, which product has the best streaks, what kind of tasks i do the most, are they busy work or work that moves the needle on revenue. "I have this problem, who else had solved it or working on it before." "I have an idea, how many other WIP indies had built it, launched it, made it profitable."

Ah right. Yeah that's what I'm getting at with this post. What questions would you ask this WIP AI?

Will crunch numbers and find patterns, like how much time spent marketing vs building, revenue ups and downs, who are my customers, how much they spend, how often, how many recurring, from which countries, which profile spends the most, which plan has most customers, was there a spike in traffic when i tried this marketing hack, did this feature bring more customers etc etc. Do foresee might haver to upload or sync other data like from stripe or analytics to be able to answer those questions

What does this mean? 😅

@marc You know how you can upload an excel sheet and chat with gpt about it, ask it to crunch numbers and analyse, spot opportunities ? Imagine uploading the entire logs of a product and asking wip ai anything related to it

Haven’t noticed anything myself, but will keep an eye on this thread. Thanks for the heads up 🙏
