sweepstakes + Twitter = TweetStakes

A friend of mine and I were talking a while back and we realized that it would be cool to run some sweepstakes on Twitter. We put up a sign up page for a while to collect some emails and we got 200 sign ups. Once we received some sign ups we got together about 2 weekends ago and we put together a web application that lets people create sweepstakes on Twitter by counting the mentions and picking winners etc. I want to get your opinion on the site before we let those 200 people know that we are ready for beta. I would very much appreciate your feedback. Thanks in advance. The url is:…

    Hey, I'm Stan and I made a app called Contestit. It's a social media giveaway app that let's users create giveaways. It gives the user a link they can share to their followers. What I always disliked or found annoying about giveaways is the fact that they were all the same, here's the prize. All you got to do is like, follow, and comment to be entered. That always bored me so i wanted to make it more interactive. Here's how it works: Users still get a shareable link for their giveaway, but after people sign up, they can play games to earn more entries instead of just waiting around. Right…

    Me and my buddy made $20 with a Stripe link and a Tweet2023 · ▲7

    Hi there, So a buddy a couple of days ago came up with the idea for a new SaaS product regarding gpt and image generation.
