In the last 10 years, I have heavily used open-source software, especially in managing and consulting tech. This has given me lots of experience and a vast database of great open-source software.
I wanted to keep them in a clean database, but I couldn't find something that worked for me, so I built it.
Open Apps is a directory that:

I don't see a point. If you are trying to spam the internet to grow your following, it is fine I guess however, if you will be interacting with your followers with AI, how you are going to sell them?
What do you think about AI comments?

Any book recommendations for about funding for startups?
I am interested in reading and learning more about startup funding. Different funding models, perhaps can go into some details on finance and equity structures and investment.
My main challenge is to find something for startup oriented not a general finance book.
Any recommendations I can check?

Can AI really help your sales?
I want to take a step back and breathing from all the AI conversations. I am an engineer not marketing. Due to my positions though I am mostly in the receiving end of sales, where vendors are selling their product to me.
Most of the time I made the decision to buy was:
1. I know the product already from my own daily studies
2. I have a good relationship with the sales, they know my problems...

Definitely not. Ideas are everywhere. The important part is execution and marketing.
Would you buy a business idea?

In my experience freemium model rarely works especially if you are not ready to support your free users.
In most B2C apps I worked with, there is a really small percent updates to paid tier.
30 day trial was much more profitable.
For a SaaS, is a freemium plan a game changer or not?

Both has its own community. Depends on what you want to do.
I am active in both but X Is more about communication for me and LinkedIn is more business networking.
Which one is better LinkedIn or Twitter?

Development became easy these days, libraries, SASS but there is no real time saver for marketing.
The bigger challenge - Marketing or Dev?

Definitely not, I actually would love to see it replaced. It is will be an opportunity to grow into another level.
Do you think the job you are doing could be replaced by robots one day?

Inside the team only people relevant with what meeting is about. Though I am trying to avoid meetings as much as possible.
How do you decide who to invite to a meeting?

I was following this from X. This is one of the AI projects that make sense.
