Show HN: Baqqer – Equity Crowdfunding for Makers, Inventors, Developers and You
Hey HN!
I left my previous job three months ago, decided to die going broke and homeless building products I loved. I saw some awesome platforms out there, but nothing that really captured how I felt as a builder. I wanted something I could use to share what I'm working on, engage my audience in my building, raise some money, sell the stuff I made, and basically figure out a way to help me keep producing more of what people want.
I built Baqqer as this idea of folding in my audience into the every piece of the pipeline towards building a company. Maybe it's a radical take on transparency all the way from discover, to prototype, to market, and beyond.
Here is this baby. Give me some feedback. This is v1.0 so hook me up with your insights.

- tixocloud 11y agoBased off of your website, I can't really see the difference between Baqqer and all the other crowdfunding websites. You should definitely explain your idea of engaging your audience through every piece of the pipeline up front. I think that's what makes you different from every other crowdfunding website around. Also, as a maker, it's not that I want to "Crowdfund my Passion". What I would really love to do as an inventor is to bring "My Idea to Life" and hopefully be successful at it. The fact that I don't see any projects and I don't know how much I could potentially raise is a red flag to me. Good luck!
- lowglow 11y agoCool. I agree. I'll surface those things to the front. Thanks!
