Hi, I'm [FOUNDER_NAME]
I built Rendr because I was tired of the existing dashboard tools.
The Story
I'm a developer who's spent too many hours trying to add simple dashboards to my projects. Every time I needed to show users their data in a nice format, I'd hit the same wall: existing tools were either way too expensive (looking at you, $299+/month BI tools) or required so much configuration that I might as well have built it from scratch.
After the third time going through this pain, I decided to build what I wanted to exist: an API-first dashboard platform that developers could integrate in minutes, not weeks. Something that looked good by default, didn't cost a fortune, and just... worked.
So I started building Rendr. Nights and weekends, between my day job and life. It's been a labor of love (and coffee), but I think I've created something genuinely useful.
Why Rendr Exists
To solve my own problem
I needed dashboards for my projects and nothing fit. So I built what I wanted.
To make it affordable
Not everyone has enterprise budgets. Side projects and startups need tools they can actually afford.
To keep it simple
Dashboards shouldn't require a PhD to set up. API-first, well-documented, copy-paste ready.
Mission
Make dashboards not suck for developers. Simple as that.
Vision
The go-to tool when you need dashboards but don't want the BI headache.
Where we are right now
Stage: Pre-launch, actively building and testing
Team: Just me (solo founder), building this nights and weekends
Funding: Bootstrapped. No investors, no pressure to charge insane prices.
Looking for: Early adopters who'll try it out and give honest feedback
Promise: I respond to every email. Really.
My Background
[Add your background here - developer experience, what you've built before, why you're qualified to build this, etc.]
Professional developer by day, indie hacker by night. I've built [X number] of projects, most of which needed some form of data visualization or dashboards. This is my attempt to build the tool I wish existed all along.
I believe in building in public, being transparent about progress (and problems), and creating products that developers actually want to use.
What's Next
Launch beta
Get the first version out there with the core features working well
Find early adopters
Looking for 20-50 people willing to try it and provide feedback
Iterate based on feedback
Build what users actually need, not what I think they need
Hopefully, go full-time
This is a nights-and-weekends project that I hope becomes my full-time thing
