Average time Sonaur listeners spent with each sonic palette during the past week: 1. Ethereal: 45 minutes/session 2. Golden Ratio: 38 minutes/session 3. Lush: 10 minutes/session What's your favorite palette/location combo?

Testing the new @sonaur.app Health Mode: ambient soundscapes that reflect & adapt to your physiological state in real time. I can literally hear myself settle into calm, or react to stress, as I breathe. #indiedev #buildinpublic #ambientmusic #focusmusic

Well, well, well... what do we have here? Ambient music that feels your heartbeat. Coming soon.

I built @sonaur.app by relentlessly chasing an idea instead of following a roadmap adjustafresh.medium.com/sonaur-chasi...

I've composed & added a new sonic palette to Sonaur: "Golden Ratio" Drawn from the structural proportions of the universe. A waking dream that pulls you deeper Coming soon to iOS, but you can experience it now at www.sonaur.app

In case you missed this over the holiday break... Sonaur is live in the iOS App Store 🎉 If you’re into ambient music, generative systems, or the idea that some songs are meant to be heard, others feel like places you can stay, I’d love to hear what you think #ambient #buildinpublic #indiedev

Sonaur v1.0 is officially submitted for iOS App Store review. I've been on the design side of iOS & Android apps for several years, but this is the first time I've done everything soup to nuts (that's a weird expression). The web app is available now www.sonaur.app #buildinpublic #ambientmusic

Based on user feedback & analytics, I've completely remade the Ethereal palette in the Sonaur web app. If you enjoy #ambientmusic while working, meditating, or just existing, put on some headphones and give it a listen 🎧 And the iOS version is available for TestFlight builds 😎🔜 www.sonaur.app

Sonaur composes ambient soundscapes driven by real-time weather data with samples composed by humans (not AI). Like wind chimes it's unpredictable, meditative, and ever-changing. Not recorded music, but a living, ambient soundtrack www.sonaur.app 🎧 #ambientmusic #focusmusic #ambient #experimental

I love listening to music, but sometimes it's too distracting and working in silence is no fun. Sonaur takes weather data and transposes it into a unique, dynamic ambient soundtrack Throw on some headphones and give it a try 😇 www.sonaur.app #buildinpublic #ambientmusic #webapp

This is a cool project if you're looking for some peaceful ambient background music that doesn't distract while working. The binaural beats are also a plus for focusing while you're wearing headphones 🎧

Do you work better with background sound, but find music too distracting? I made Sonaur for you! Choose from 2 ambient sonic palettes generated by weather data. No repeats, no lyrics, no skips, no thought required. Just focus. Give it 5 minutes: sonaur.vercel.app Early feedback appreciated. 🌊

How much of your user research actually influences product decisions? Nearly half of teams we surveyed admit their decisions are based on assumptions. The problem often isn't the research quality—it's buried & inaccessible user research files www.rooost.co/playbook/why...

What if anyone on your team could chat with your users anytime? Rooost turns your user research into secure, dynamic, chat-ready personas that strengthen & evolve as you gather more data Check out the product demo: app.supademo.com/demo/cmh59dv...

I've been dragging my feet to create a quality product demo for @rooost.co, and I have to give a shout out to supademo for making the process super easy! Seriously impressed #buildinpublic app.supademo.com/demo/cmh59dv...

Sonaur is a digital art experiment that generates bespoke, ambient soundscapes driven by real-time weather data. The experience is designed to be enjoyed in the moment—not recorded music, but a dynamic, ambient soundtrack Grab some 🎧, try it out, and let me know what you think! sonaur.vercel.app

On Monday, I was inspired by an interview I heard with Brian Eno where he mentioned wind chimes. I thought... what if I could build something that uses data sources to create random, ambient music? I started brainstorming #buildinpublic

If you're paying thousands of dollars for persona development and community management resources & tools but product decisions still lean on gut instinct—you're not getting your money's worth. You're engaging in user research theater www.rooost.co/playbook/mak...

Anyone who’s worked with me knows: I’ve never been the biggest fan of creating personas. Not because personas are a bad idea per se, but because the way most teams create and apply them is broken. www.getpixelperfect.co/pixel-perfec...

The bottleneck isn't development capacity anymore, it's how quickly product teams can align, adapt, and learn from users in real time www.getpixelperfect.co/pixel-perfec...

AI speed means everyone can build fast. The teams that win are the ones that learn fast—the ones who turn every experiment into momentum and every failure into insight. www.getpixelperfect.co/pixel-perfec...

When user research becomes conversational and accessible, product teams make faster, more confident decisions and spend more time building the right thing www.rooost.co/playbook/why...

Is your user research being ignored? Maybe it’s a usability problem

The best user research in the world is worthless if no one can find or reference it when they need it www.rooost.co/playbook/why...

AI is fundamentally rewriting the rules of the staffing, tools, and process that enable teams to design, develop, and deliver their products www.getpixelperfect.co/pixel-perfec...

Next time you're stuck deciding between features: 1. Talk to users about their frustrations (not feature preferences) 2. Quantify the impact of their current problems 3. Map solving problems to potential business value 4. Consider features that may solve those problems www.rooost.co/playbook/fea...

New in the Playbook: More features isn't the answer. Solving the right problem is.

We don’t need more folders. We need answers. Rooost turns your research into real-time, first-person insight. When your VP asks “what are users struggling with?”... you actually have an answer. Watch how it works 👇

Once sales saw how user insights helped them close deals WITHOUT random, risky promises, everything changed 🤝 www.rooost.co/playbook/sal...

When to Use ChatGPT vs. Rooost ChatGPT is my product & market consultant. Rooost is my user on speed dial Use ChatGPT when you need to think broadly. Use Rooost when you need to think specifically about YOUR users www.rooost.co/playbook/roo...

The unexpected benefits of using @rooost.co to invite your users into your executive stakeholder reviews: 1.

Today's focus: create a new semantic analysis utility that will compare uploaded research against existing research using Pinecone embeddings to determine new vs validated insights from uploaded research documents.
