When and how did you get your product idea?

Question

When I worked at a company, we used multiple tools for communication and project management: Slack for messaging, Jira for task tracking, and Google Meet for video conferences. This diverse set of tools often led to misalignment within my team.

To address this issue, I developed Swatle, where users can

Chat personally and in groups
Manage tasks efficiently with AI
Schedule and conduct discussions, with a lot of awesome features

I got the idea for my product while working at my previous job. We used a bunch of different tools like Slack, Jira, Google Meet etc and it was always a hassle to keep everything coordinated. I thought there had to be a better way to have messaging, task management, scheduling and video calls all in one place. That's how the idea for Swatle was born, to bring all those key features together in a more streamlined way. Would love to hear how others came up with their product ideas too!

Answer

I got the idea for my task management app Taskhero when I was struggling to keep all my projects and to-dos organized across Trello, Google Tasks, and random notes. Having everything scattered was super inefficient. So I decided to build an app that brings tasks, notes, and chat all into one unified workspace. It's been a game changer for my productivity! Would love to hear what pain points inspired others' product ideas.
