##Concept
GitHub Burndown Chart as a service. Public repos are free, for private access auth via GitHub and pay.
##Notes
- payment gateways in Canada: Shopify, Chargify list; I get free processing on first $1000 with Stripe
- start people on a Community plan showing them a comparison table to upgrade to a better offering
- community (open source, local storage), business (private repos, firebase)
- keep discussion going via gitter or have people comment from the app via helpful
- credit card form ux from Designmodo
- workers: using a free instance of IronWorker and assuming 5s runtime each time gives us a poll every 6 minutes. Zapier would poll every 15 minutes but already integrates Stripe and FB.
- worst case scenario I provide even Small Business plan for free and provide a better experience
- $2.5 Node.js PaaS via Gandi with promo code
PAASLAUNCH-C50E-B077-A317
. - let people vote on features they want to see fast: tally.tl.
- use readme.io for documentation
- have people pay outright or call me instead telling me what they'll use it for and they will get 6 months free; the idea is to get feedback from them; also, if they want to leave/close account/have not used app in a while, give them more free months for their feedback on how to make the app better; feedback is more important than money in early stages
##Plans
###Community
- your repos are saved locally
- no auto-updates to milestones, everything fetched on page load
- no private repos
###Business
- you need to pay for a license to use the app for business purposes
- repos, milestones saved remotely
- auto-update with new information
- private repos
