I think in our day to day lives we all have aspects we wish we could automate and in startups thats especially true, for me I think it would be the entire design side. A.I please make a solid Figma design generator

@mekkiebansil We were using a hodge podge of tools: Asana, Google Drive, Figma/Miro, & Slack notes. We got most everything migrated into Notion, but it's been a chaotic process and I wish I had some more regimented structure if that makes sense?

The tasks I would like to automate are not easy ones like chasing unpaid invoices for a B2B SaaS. Requires lots of manual work and some companies have bizarre payment procedures that also change every time.

Customer service around operations - when customers want you do something that your app isn't built to do, but you feel like you have to do it because you are early stage and you want to accommodate them (like changing a class time or processing refunds)

Product feedback and testing Of course there are tons of product around feedback but being able to automatically filter out the data should be easy. Even same for testing.

Would be nice to Figma to Angular components! Or generate a name and buy domain, create emails

@david_sipos Name generation for sure, its hard thinking of the perfect name!

@david_sipos We will consider Figma to Angular components. We are providing Figma to HTML/SCSS and Flutter so far.
