I was a tab hoarders. It was inconvenient to group my 100 tabs into one or track my time on the Internet. I know there are solutions out there but they are small apps, not includes all the feature that I want. So I made one. The app is TabHub (https://tabhub.io/)

I am solving my personal problem. When I started my first startup I faced the challenge of setting up my financial model. There were two reasons for that. First I had to provide numbers to the investors. Second I needed to understand if my business model makes sense at all. So I googled and couldn't find a tool to do financial projections out of the box. It took me several months and 2-3 financial consultants to build an XL. So I thought that others might have the same issue and started doing custdev. The results proved that I was right. So now I am building a tool that solves all these problems. This is my biggest motivation: to help others.

@elenat It's great to see how you're turning your own challenges into a solution that can help others. I'm curious to know more about how you developed your tool. What kind of features does your tool offer that make it stand out from other financial modeling tools?

Solving a pain I had. And I suppose, if I have this pain, maybe others will have it too.

The motivation for creating A product: We wanted to do it and we want to move our business model over to making most of our money from our products. The motivation for creating THIS product: We want it ourselves and nothing like it existed (and still doesn't). Being your own customer makes it easier to make all of the thousands of tiny decisions that go into building a product in a way that it will actually serve real users. I is also much more motivating to push through the hard parts to actually arrive at something special.

@kevin_brendel A unique blend of business strategy and personal drive. Nice! The intersection of business needs and genuine personal use often yields some of the most impactful products.

Sorry I don't have a very nice answer. I live in Brazil where the salary is very low. I'm studying to be a developer. The answer to your question... for me is MONEY!.

@italo_costa then that's a good reason! No need to be ashamed :))
