How did you come up with the idea for your product or service?

Love this question! Whenever a Powerball lottery jackpot grows, two things always happen: 1) A conversation ensues about how astronomical the odds are, and 2) someone always wins. In 2019, I started studying lottery data patterns for games with lower odds. Currently, MyLottoData has ALL US historical lottery data since 1979, and over 1000 active subscribers. Goal: 1,000,0000 active subscribers.

When I started Thirdwork (a freelance talent marketplace), two things helped: 1.) I've worked as a freelancer before, but also hired dozens of freelance writers, designers, developers, brand strategists, and marketers over the course of my career. That at least gave me some intuition around the pain points I should understand. 2.) We scheduled over 50 structured product feedback sessions with founders, builders, and product leaders (all of whom were open and interested in hiring freelancers for their teams). We did all of this before writing a line of code. This allowed us to ask questions, understand which messages resonated (product-message fit matters!) and test hypotheses without any preconceptions, which was hugely helpful.

I productise a consulting service that I was offering to make it more accessible: QApop 2.0

Recently I launched a micro tasking platform (Digital WorkerBees) where individuals and businesses can get their work done with help of number of people worldwide. It's kind of employer-workers model, where Employer will post a job by putting their requirements, and instruct users about what do they want exactly, for quality check they can ask for some work proofs at affordable prices. Worker will do the listed tasks on base of their choice, performs each instructions step by step and complete the task by providing proofs asked by employer. They will get real bucks when their submission is approved by the employer. To monitor such conversation and transaction admin will take of everything. If someone is spending their time and putting efforts to get their work done accurately, they must be get paid. So here admin is the lord of justice! ⚖️ The better part is, no technical skills required for this website (digitalworkerbees.com) to use. Everyone can join it for free and start making money by completing the tasks or get your work done ASAP with help of crowd.

With evoke-app.com, one of my friends found it hard to set up stable diffusion on the cloud to make an app, and other API providers being slow or pricey. So we set up to make a stable diffusion API for app devs. We'll also host more open source AI in the future, but stable diffusion and related models are our current focus

I did a market research prior to launching it, which helped me change some aspects before its final launch.

We have been transforming one product into another. Communicating with clients and analyzing their requests, we have created a universal product that has been placed under a separate logo and is developing it.

Identified a pain that I was fighting with all the time, then decided to build a solution

I wanted to comment on a podcast - Tried going to 3 different communities of the podcast, but no one had a post by the creator on the episode I wanted to comment on -Tried Reddit community, but I had to clarify exactly what's the context to my comment. I felt it was overcomplicated, must be a better way to do that. -Designed 1st Podiz version, tested with users, failed. - Designed 2nd Podiz version, tested with users, failed. - Designed the 3rd Podiz version, tested it with users, and it worked great. Fantastic feedback and 90%+ success rate in all tasks, authentic enthusiasm. The idea wasn't found as much as it was sculpted from the problem. I'm sure we have a long way to go...
