WillTheyConvert

Just three months ago, I had no idea what GitHub even was. I wasn’t a developer, and all that coding stuff seemed like a whole different world. I had tons of ideas I wanted to bring to life, but no idea where to start.

Then, I stumbled upon AI coding tools and NoCode platforms and started experimenting. I managed to create one cool app already, and now, it’s time for a second, more serious one. That’s how WillTheyConvert came to life.

I built this app in just three days during the holidays—using AI-powered tools and NoCode platforms. WillTheyConvert lets indie hackers and entrepreneurs validate their product concepts in minutes by simulating payments and account sign-ups. No need to build the entire product first—just validate your assumptions quickly and easily. It’s the perfect tool to help you make data-driven decisions, save time, and avoid building something no one actually wants.

🔍 How It Works:

With WillTheyConvert, you create a “fake” version of your product's core action—just enough to simulate interest. Here’s how it looks:

A “Subscribe” button that doesn't link to a working product, but mimics the real thing. A pricing table with fake “Buy” or “Start Free Trial” buttons. A pre-order form for something that hasn’t even been built yet. A referral program invite that simulates what a real referral program would look like. A discount or early access page to measure FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). A newsletter or waitlist signup form to gauge interest before you start. Full subscription flows and payment simulations to test your conversion rates.

You customize these test pages inside the app and publish them in minutes. Then, you share them with your audience—whether it’s through social media, an email list, or a Reddit post. WillTheyConvert tracks how many people click, sign up, interact, and where they drop off. It even lets you redirect people to your own landing page (like a Notion page, custom website, or email collector).

🧠 Why Use It? Because guessing sucks. You know the pain of building something for weeks or months only to realize no one actually wants it, right? I’ve been there too. 😬

That’s why this method—called Fake Door Testing—is so effective. It’s the same approach that companies like Airbnb, Dropbox, Product Hunt, and Groupon used.

They created the illusion of a product, tested if people were interested, and then only built what had real demand. If it worked for them, why not for us?
