When you are bootstrapping, money and hours are both limited. Paid ads cost money before you know what message works, and content takes time to compound. Replying to people who are already asking for what you built is one of the few channels that costs mainly attention, and it teaches you how your customers describe their problem.
What Distrarc does for a solo founder
- Reads your website and drafts a description of who your product is for, which you can edit.
- Searches public sources that suit your audience for people describing the problem you solve.
- Shows each conversation with a link to the source, its date and the reason it fits.
- Drafts a reply that answers first and discloses that you built the product.
You decide which conversations to join and post the replies yourself. Nothing is posted or sent for you.

A sustainable routine
- Review new conversations at a fixed time, so it does not take over your day.
- Reply only where you can genuinely help, and disclose your affiliation.
- Note which replies led to real conversations or sign-ups.
