Last week’s premium drop was for indie builders trying to sell better and scale smarter:

  1. One for template sellers who want previews that actually convert

  2. One for app devs stuck localizing the slow, painful way.

Both are problems people are already googling, and both have room for small, fast extensions to sneak in and win.

Idea #1

A Chrome extension that saves your Spotify taste buds from your children’s music phases

My plea to @spotify : please make a "my kids asked
me to play this" button that doesn't affect our
algorithm.

It adds a simple “Kid Request” button right inside the Spotify web player. Tap it, and the track plays instantly, but Spotify’s algorithm ignores it.

So your Discover Weekly doesn’t get hijacked by “Baby Shark” or the 47th remix of the Minecraft parody your kid is obsessed with.

Behind the scenes, the extension spins up a temporary session or tags playback as “non-algorithmic,” so Spotify won’t train on it. Parents get peace of mind, kids get their songs, and everyone’s playlists stay sane.

Keywords to rank for:

  • Spotify parental control

  • Spotify kids mode

  • How to play kid songs on Spotify without changing algorithm



Idea #2

A Chrome extension that tells you the best time to post on Reddit

⚡️ I MADE A THING

Reddit removed the ability to check avg active users via API…

So I made my analytics EVEN better:
- Tracks posts + comments per hour in each subreddit ⏱️
- Shows the best times & days to post 📈

(Maybe soon: highlights of the most popular posts) 

Took this tracking to a whole new level 🚀

It tracks when each subreddit is buzzing, then overlays that intel straight into the UI.

So instead of guessing, you’ll know that r/Entrepreneur spikes around 7 PM with ~120 interactions, while r/ContentMarketing peaks at lunchtime.

You can get alerts for your optimal posting windows, look back at historical patterns, and even run lightweight trend analysis, all without wrestling with Reddit’s locked-down API.

Built lean enough to stay under Chrome’s 10 MB limit, but powerful enough to keep you from posting into a dead zone.

Keywords to rank for:

  • Best time to post on Reddit

  • Subreddit activity tracker

  • How to find best posting times on Reddit
