@mogabr We have incredibly ambitious plans, and Product Hunt has inspired us to keep bringing them to life! ✨
Thank you all for your support, friends! 🤝
This has been an incredible journey packed into one day! 🏆
@jan_ber Thank you, but I clearly understand that there is also a serious challenge in the good implementation of such an idea. No wonder the "big players" do not make such a visual style. So far, our idea is the core around which the project is being built. And we will try to do the best we can!
@vit_aver @elaineluyi Yes, Layer allows you to add notes or comments at the board level, providing context or instructions for the entire project 🙌
@elaineluyi 👋 Hi and thanks! I wrote down this idea, there really is no such functionality now! But this really needs to be implemented!
Congrats on your launch! I love your tagline of being inspired by how the brain works. I am curious - what are the main ways you have incorporated that next to the mind-map like branching of points?
@alexanderfarr In general, the idea of the organization arose at the moment when I was managing the launch of three IT products. And my brain was literally boiling. We are planning to implement many tools for visually balancing the map with their release into tasks. You can now try clicking on the 3rd icon at the top left - inside the board with blocks. If you have blocks with the status "today" then the layer will delete everything and put only them on the boards. Perhaps I answered very confusingly? )))))
Layer’s visual roadmaps and mind map trees are a fresh, intuitive way to organize tasks and goals—excited to see how it enhances productivity! 💡
@paul_malaj Hey! I actually use your service for icons))) Thanks for the support. After the launch, we had a lot more work to do. We are thinking how to overcome everything)
First thing first, Congrats on the launch 🚀
The features you've created are 60% of the reason why I use Miro, this seems to be more focused on the mind maps and making the most out of them.
In comparison to Miro's Mind Maps, how does your product stands out?
@davisnz Oh, I totally get why Miro’s awesome—it’s great for brainstorming and whiteboarding. But Layer takes mind maps and gives them a whole new level of purpose. While Miro’s more freeform, Layer’s designed to connect your ideas directly to actionable tasks and long-term goals. You’re not just throwing ideas on a board; you’re building a system that helps you organize, prioritize, and execute.
Layer’s focus mode is another standout—it lets you zoom in on just one section of your mind map so you can concentrate without distractions. Plus, the AI assistant helps you streamline projects and even suggests ways to organize your work better. It’s all about turning those creative brainstorms into real results. And let’s not forget—Layer’s got gamification too, so productivity actually feels fun.
So yeah, if you love the creative side of Miro but want something more structured and goal-oriented, Layer’s your tool.
Hey Vitaly! It looks like you're changing the task management game and I hope every founder can take the most of it, cause you're doing an impressive job there. Wish you all the best!
Congratulations on the successful launch!
The interface is highly responsive and swift, and the interaction design and breakdown approach are very innovative. However, there’s a bug with the Chinese input method, making it impossible to type in Chinese.
@gofurther Hello! Thanks for your feedback! We'll try to solve this with the tech team in a couple of days! There really is some kind of problem with Chinese! Thank you for writing to our tech support. The question is under control. In what way do you think the concept of our project would be useful for you as a founder? (if I read the role from your profile correctly)
@xiaoluoboding Heh, thanks! It's nice to hear, in general, in 3 years this is our 4th version of the design :)
Layer Brain-Inspired Planner looks like an innovative tool that could revolutionize the way we approach task management and productivity. I'm excited to see how it leverages AI to enhance our planning capabilities!
Great! I like these kind of management projects cause it helps you to organize all your schedule.
@larryjones0709 Greetings and thanks! Did you manage to try deeper functions? Or create your first tree in a layer?
@vit_aver I’m on the premium plan but can’t find any menu to manage my subscription. The product has great potential, but there are several issues that need attention. I’ve already encountered quite a few bugs in a short period of use.
@biswarupadhikari We will refund all funds shortly, 🎁 and open the PRO version for free. Contact me to include your difficulties in our work plan! On the main page of the project we have a Tech Support Muse - write her your contacts - they will be passed to me personally!
Hi Vit and the Layer Team! 👋🏻
First off, a huge congratulations on the launch! 🎉 I’m already on the premium plan and super excited about exploring all that Layer has to offer. The concept is fantastic, and I’m loving the visual approach to productivity—it’s a game-changer!
While exploring, I noticed a quick issue that might need your attention. In the Tasks list, when I assign a task to a board, I receive a notification saying, 'Task assigned,' but the task doesn’t actually get assigned to the board. Upon refreshing the page, the task still appears unassigned. The same behavior is happening when setting deadlines for tasks.
I was testing this on the following URL: https://app.layer.cafe/4e29ea03-....
If this could be resolved quickly, it would be fantastic! 😊 Let me know if you need any additional details from my end.
Thanks, and looking forward to seeing Layer get even better! 🚀
@biswarupadhikari
1️⃣ Thank you for your trust and patience! After the launch of the product hunt, we were literarily speaking drowned. First of all, our AI servers died from overloading and we still can't get them back up 😭
2️⃣ On your question we will soon be preparing a large update of the screen of all tasks. According to user reviews it is not convenient. The design is beautiful, but usability suffers
3️⃣ On the main page of the project we have a Tech Support Muse - write her your wishes or your contacts - they will be passed to me personally!
🎁 🎁 🎁 In the coming hours we will open the ➡️ PRO version for free for all users and will seriously focus on improving usability features based on the feedback received!
🏆 All will be done. I promise that in the next 7 years it will be the best visual system for managing tasks and goals. Thank you for your trust ❤️
Big congrats, team! Will there be templates for different tasks, like in Notion? 📋
@kate_ramakaieva Thanks for your support! Yes, Layer offers a variety of templates to help you get started with different types of projects and tasks.
Exciting launch! Layer’s approach to visual roadmaps and mind map trees sounds like a game-changer for productivit. Congrats!
@ikalimullin Thank you for your support! The launch and feedback from new users made it clear that we still have a lot to improve. Our team is currently discussing the next steps, and we might even consider pausing the paid subscription temporarily to focus on refining the product. Excited to keep pushing forward! Tell me your opinion about our paid subscription, is it understandable and does it have value in your opinion?
@samalyx Hello and thanks for the feedback! One of the inspirations was the concept of "second brain" - from the 📚 book tiago forte! Our product will act as a tool with one goal - to unload from the brain as much information about the stages of the project or goal as possible! And even if you do not work on the project for a long time and then return to it - the graphics will help you instantly remember the vector of movement and the situation within the project. Next, we want any information to be quickly and clearly visually presented in a line-view. And not only presented but also then managed. I looked at your project too - socialbu, very interesting, I want to try it. And what software do you generally use for the basis of your management activities? Can y share?
@thehirenthakkar I 🤝 shake your virtual hand! Thank you for your trust! If anything, I'm in touch!
@madzem Totally. Layer’s intuitive enough for beginners and for your tech pros, it’s loaded with advanced features to keep them happy. Everybody wins!
Layer is awesome! I’m impressed by how it combines visual organization with task management.
@victoria_wu Thank you! Yes! We plan to develop this side of the product as much as possible!
