I’m exploring *FileDelay*, a tool that solves a niche problem:
*Problem*: - Developers/freelancers often miss deadlines due to scope creep or underestimation. - Submitting placeholder files damages credibility.
*Solution*: Generate corrupt files indistinguishable from real corruption: - Reverse-engineered headers (PDF/DOCX/ZIP, and so on). - Custom metadata (author, creation date). - Error type simulation (CRC, encryption, etc).
*Offer*: If this solves a pain point: - *Reply here* → Get 3 months free + early API access. - We need brutal feedback on: - Technical implementation risks. - Ethical boundaries (non-critical use only). - Willingness to pay at 4€/month.
*Why?* - Could pivot to QA testing tool if unethical for deadlines. - Goal: Build something useful, not exploitative.
Zero spam. Pure validation.
