Slick landing page design, well done and congrats on your hard work.

As others have said the market is saturated and engineers would implement this themselves. Don't let that deter you, though, there's still room for innovation.

If you can get user feedback I'm sure you can find a niche or killer feature that makes your product worth paying for. For me, I have two things I'd like to see in a paid service:

1. Allow scheduling support for seconds. Obviously you'd have to get creative on this one.

2. Allow conditionals with rules-based triggers that are easily configured in a UI

Those would require you create something more akin to Laravel's Console setup instead of working directly with Cron directives, but that's something worth considering! In that setup, a Cron is pointed at the Laravel configuration and it runs every minute: https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/scheduling - ultimately for #1 you'd want to take inspiration from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9619362/running-a-cron-e...

Good luck, have fun :-)



Your approach on providing feedback is clean, to the point, and most importantly, encouraging. Well done, Zachary.


Thank you! :)
