Compare this to what https://quartr.com/products/quartr-core is offering for $20/month.
I know how difficult it is to build a tool like this and you've done a decent job. Just doesn't make sense to me to price it like this.
This doesn't say anything. Exactly how much have you tested and what were the results?
Btw, I see that my original comment has been flagged (not saying that it was you kiez). Maybe because it was low effort? Understandable if that's the case. I figured "This is extremely uncomfortable to read." would make sense for anyone that saw the sharp pink and yellow backgrounds combined with grungy text. I'm pretty sure I have photosensitivity though, so maybe this is not a widespread issue.
> Ben: He's gregarious. Anyone who's ever met Steve or seen a video of Steve, you are well aware that this man has a presence. But the thing that people don't know about him is he is so unbelievably analytical. Steve is the guy that outscored Bill Gates on the Putnam exam.
There is also paddle, which has been around for a lot longer: https://developer.paddle.com/classic/api-reference/4c7d88de5...
I looked at paddle initially, but was not too happy with their chat support. The content of the support was great but the response time was about 1 day, which made it difficult for a chat type conversation. In retrospect, I could've tried writing longer messages.
So I was looking for an alternative and found LemonSqueezy. One of the founders actually helped me onboard, which I was very grateful for. At the beginning the support was great, but it has degraded a lot since. If you go to their slack, you would notice many people complaining about issues being unattended to for weeks and months. I've had first hand experience with this too. I suggest you go to their slack and check out the state for yourself.
In contrast, paddle's response time was better and higher quality too. I'm strongly considering switching to paddle at this point.
I also have had several instances where iCloud Drive would take forever to sync. The most recent time got so bad (100% cpu usage that persists after killing the process when I added 5KB worth of files) that I stopped using it completely. Tried Microsoft OneDrive instead and it synced at good speeds and gave me no problems.
Saw that your screener filtering is instant. Do you have everything loaded to the client side? If you want some feedback, I think the filter slider for the active rule could use a bit of a redesign. The magenta color is too vibrant for me and the actual bar itself is barely visible (could use more contrast against page background).
For data providers, have you looked at EODHD? They are a bit more expensive compared to FMP but the data is a lot higher quality from what I've seen and they have 24/7 live chat support. I don't know if it would fit your budget but could be worth to ask their support. Disclaimer: I build something similar in this space and I'm currently trying to migrate from FMP to EODHD.
Always fun to see others build tools like this. Would love to chat more on discord if you are up for it. Just followed you on twitter so we could go from there. glhf
