Hello HN,

We are building a note-taking app with OCR to save quotes from paper books, organize them with tags and write down summary of each book. There are several other apps on the market but they focus only on OCR with no notes features - I believe that usually for each book a user makes a file with notes/ideas, not only quotes.

The plan is to integrate with audiobooks companies (to transcribe audiobooks quotes) and to integrate with ebooks.

It's free to use (paid is text formatting and tags).

I hope you like it! Any feedback is very welcome!

I feel that my work relationship is like partnership: I provide some value for some cash.

If the company wants to set 'work from office' culture and my WFH attitude will be hard for them, my position will have 'negative effect on the team'. I think it's always better to understand all the effects beforehand to better negotiate.

In the end of the day it's all about the value your team provides in the long term. If you sells that it'll be only increased, so the negotiations will be easier.

That's normal unfortunately. I know cases when employees trying to sue the company but usually the company is well-prepared for such cases.

My personal takeaway: choose the founder you trust. Even after such issues, I will be able to communicate with founder and get some justice.

I don't feel support is a big part of the game if you build it right. B2C need some virality as user churn is higher. Anyway, good luck, my friend )

That's a great idea! I have thought about it and planned to build some kind of betting game: everyone pays $10 on day 0 (let's say 1k users) and camera proves that you are doing exercises. On day 30 $10k ($10*1k) is divided between everyone who is still active. Motivation tool.

I assume SAAS is one of the best model for independent developer. If you build a helpful product, users will stay for a long time.

If you build it well, it'll probably be alive for a long time. (low daily expenses needed)
