marcelkalveram··on Show HN: Get candid feedback from your friends, family and coworkers
This is so useful! Thanks for actually recording this and walking me through your thinking process.

I'll probably make some adjustments to the tool next week because I've been receiving some really cool and candid feedback on this here on HN.

Keep up the great work. I think what you're doing is really valuable for people with new product ideas.

Good point! Makes perfect sense. I’ll take care of that so it’s easier to visualize the user journey.

Interesting link. I had not come across this tool yet. Thanks for the hint!

Seems like the creators of this have a very similar goal in mind, but looks like it got created before LLMs were a thing. I think adding AI to the mix makes this even more interesting.

Thanks! That's really helpful feedback.

I agree, getting people to respond is not an easy challenge. I have some ideas in mind but first wanted to gauge general demand for such a tool.

I've been frustrated lately by how rarely people give honest feedback. Most of the time, they’re too afraid of hurting our feelings. However, feedback is incredibly valuable for both personal and professional growth.

Inspired by the concept of Radical Candor (popularized by Kim Scott and Reed Hastings), I wanted to create a way for people to feel less hesitant about sharing candid feedback more openly.

The idea behind this tool is to gather feedback from multiple sources, then use AI to combine and anonymize it. This way, the feedback isn’t personally identifiable, making people more comfortable sharing what’s really on their minds.

Please give it a try, and let me know if you have any ideas for improvement.

Thanks, Marcel

Thanks a lot for your feedback! I'll add that to our backlog. We're aware of a few UI-related issue already and will hopefully be able to tackle them next month.
