PingBeacon Live

100% free & open-source uptime monitoring — status pages, Slack + email alerts, SLO tracking. Unlimited monitors.

Monitoring · Next.js · Supabase · 2026
Details

The problem

Synop Open Source

AI utility that turns hour-long YouTube videos into actionable, high-signal summaries in seconds.

AI · Next.js · Prisma · 2026
Details

The problem

Long videos bury the signal. You shouldn't need an hour to extract the few ideas that matter.

What shipped

  • YouTube → high-signal summaries
  • Actionable takeaways, not fluff
  • Built with Next.js & Prisma
  • Open source

The Roast Index Live

Roast your own website — publicly, by choice. Community-driven site feedback with teeth.

Community · Product · 2026
Details

The problem

Polite feedback is useless. Builders need honest, public critique they opt into — not silent bounce rates.

  • Opt-in public website roasts

Principles

01

Agents execute. You own.

Define the plan, review the output, ship the product. Agents are leverage — not a substitute for taste.

02

Ship weekly.

Momentum compounds. Small releases beat perfect plans. Public progress keeps the bar honest.

03

Focus over features.

One sharp product beats ten half-finished ideas. Say no until the yes is obvious.

04

Build for builders.

The best users are people who make things. Design for their speed, not for demos.

05

Architecture is the product.

Clean systems age well. Messy ones cost more every week. Own the design.

06

Stay independent.

Revenue from users beats revenue from investors when you want freedom to build.

About

I'm Sharad — an indie hacker and agentic engineer.

I build software where AI agents do the heavy lifting. I define the plan, agents execute, and I own the architecture, the review, and the final product. That's how one person ships what used to take a small team.

When I'm not shipping, I'm testing new ideas or iterating on tools that already exist.
