Zigpoll

Hey everyone I’m a solo founder and developer, and I’ve been building software since 2011. Over the years, I watched customer feedback tools go from simple and focused to bloated, enterprise-heavy platforms. Tons of features, endless configuration… and yet I kept using maybe 10% of what was there. The rest mostly got in the way. So I decided to build the feedback tool I actually wanted to use. That became Zigpoll — a fast, focused survey and feedback platform designed for real-world businesses. It does the essentials really well: post-purchase surveys, attribution insights, customer feedback…

Zigpoll launched on May 14, 2019 with 73 votes, #568 of 3,072 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 7 years on.

What it does

Zigpoll is an embeddable polling widget that can live on any page within your website. It lets you easily collect feedback, emails, and sentiment from your visitors so you can make better business decisions.

Find out why customers buy — and why they don't. Post-purchase, exit-intent, and email surveys with 50% average response rates. Free forever, no credit card.

One-click Shopify install, an embed code for any website, or native iOS and Android SDKs. Pick from proven templates or build your own. Most stores go live in under 3 minutes. AI analyzes responses automatically. Get actionable insights, not just data. 10+ question types designed to maximize engagement. Our customers see a 50% average response rate - 10x the industry standard. Use branching logic to dig deeper on specific answers. Offer discounts or incentives to boost completion rates. Every answer is tied to a real Shopify order, so you see revenue, AOV and repeat rate by channel - not click counts. Compare against Meta, Google and GA4 and put budget where customers actually come from.…from zigpoll.com

    Hi HN, I started building this around 6 months back. Having a full-time job makes it difficult to work on a side project. People say the hardest part is marketing but repetitive development is very boring. I will definitely choose a fun-ner side project than this if this fails. It's such a tiring journey as a solo developer/founder/marketer. The tech stack is Node.js and Angular. Daspoll is a survey builder for everyone.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
