A dashboard for solo founders and side-project developers to systematically pause, document, and later safely resume personal projects. It captures the current state, required next steps, dependencies, and personal context to solve the 'What was I even working on?' problem and reduce restart anxiety.
目标用户
Solo SaaS founders and side-hustle developers working on 2-4 active side projects concurrently, who frequently have to pause work for weeks or months due to life events, burnout, or main job priorities. They are active on r/SaaS and r/startups, complaining about restart friction and lost momentum.
核心差异点
It doesn't try to auto-discover project state (which is complex and unreliable). Instead, it provides a fast, structured, user-driven ritual for pausing that forces clarity, making the resumption process 10x smoother by giving the user exactly the notes they wish they had taken.
解决方案
A web app where users manually create a 'pause snapshot' for a project. A structured wizard prompts them to: 1) Define the project's current state (git commit hash, deployed URL). 2) Outline the next 3 concrete tasks. 3) List key dependencies or setup steps. 4) Jot down personal context/mental models. Data is stored privately. The dashboard shows all paused projects, and clicking 'resume' displays the snapshot. Built with Next.js/React (frontend), a Node.js/Express or Python FastAPI backend, and PostgreSQL/Prisma.
关联痛点
Founders experience burnout from side projects and uncertainty about managing equity and legal structures (like LLC formation) while protecting personal information.
MVP 范围
Manual project creation and pause snapshot wizard (4-step form).
