OwlEars – Raw feedback, straight from your customers' minds
Hello everyone Years ago, I built a personal feedback platform called Sarahah that got famous but was eventually removed from stores. One unique aspect of Sarahah was its simple, plain message box. Now, I'm using this concept to help businesses gather raw feedback (yes, just plain free text) from their customers. This approach contrasts with guided surveys that can often frame and limit responses. On the business side, we use AI to analyze this feedback and provide valuable insights and recommendations.

Backsy.ai2025 · backsy.ai · ▲11I got tired of endless survey forms that nobody wants to fill out. So I built Backsy, an AI-powered feedback tool where people can just type (or speak) their thoughts, and AI auto-scores the relevant product attributes—no need for structured forms or manual analysis. Backsy also works with bulk feedback (think scraped Reddit threads, support emails, app reviews, etc.), making it easy to extract trends from raw user comments. Would love to hear your thoughts—especially if you’ve struggled with feedback fatigue or collecting useful insights at scale!

Hey HN, I've been making products for almost a year now. I always started projects and stopped after 2 weeks because I lost motivation. But this time, I’m determined to release it – even if it’s not perfect yet! Let me introduce Feedlyst: a customer feedback tool where you can create boards, let customers submit & upvote feedback, and turn ideas into action. I hope this tool will be helpful for you! Would love your feedback! Raphael
