For 6 months, I was that person with 15 browser tabs open just to publish one YouTube video. vidIQ for competitor research. Runway for video generation. Descript for voiceover. Canva for thumbnails. Buffer for scheduling. ChatGPT for scripts. $127/month in subscriptions. 20+ hours/week in busywork.
Got fed up and spent 3 months building one tool that automates the entire workflow.

## My Question for This Community:
As fellow YouTubers—would this actually help you? Or am I solving my own weird workflow problem?
Specifically: - What would you actually USE vs what's "nice to have"? - Is $79/mo fair to replace vidIQ ($39) + Runway ($30) + Descript ($30) + Canva ($13) + Buffer ($15)? - What am I missing that would actually matter for your channel?

## Full Transparency:
Solo dev, first SaaS product Built it for myself first, now testing if others need it Just launched this week—some features still rough around the edges I use it for my own channel (eating my own dog food) No fake testimonials or "make $10k/month" claims Early beta, bugs exist, support is slow (it's just me)

I'm not here to sell. Genuinely trying to figure out if this is worth continuing or if I should pivot/kill it.
Honest feedback appreciated, even if it's "this is stupid and here's why." Thanks for reading viralvelocity.app
