I Review Indie Apps Like a Founder — Not a Blogger
Growth, revenue, onboarding, and real-world business impact — honest reviews of SaaS, mobile apps, AI tools, and indie products.
Why This Site Exists
Most app reviews talk about features. Founders care about users, revenue, retention, and growth. At sminrana.com I review indie products from a business-first perspective: does the onboarding convert? is the pricing smart? can this realistically grow? What would I fix as a founder?
This blog is for indie hackers, startup founders, solo developers, and product builders who want customers — not just downloads.
How My Reviews Work
- Founder-first analysis: I analyze growth, pricing, and onboarding — not shiny features.
- Actionable feedback: I give clear, founder-ready suggestions you can use right away.
- Real verdicts: Would I bet real money on this product?
