DeadlineDrift
Why This is an Opportunity
Every freelancer has rage-tweeted about undercharging. The build is a clean CRUD app with some satisfying data viz, and the 'accuracy score' mechanic is genuinely addictive — people love quantifying themselves.
Key Pain Points
- •Quoting 10 hours for a project that always takes 30, then wondering why you're broke
- •Having zero data on your own patterns so you just guess every time
- •Existing time trackers are built for billing clients, not for learning where your estimates go wrong
- •That sinking feeling on day 3 of a '2-day project' with no way to course-correct
Original Discovery
Freelance designers and developers are terrible at estimating how long projects actually take — and they never learn because they never track it. DeadlineDrift is a beautifully simple time tracker that compares your original estimate to reality, builds a personal accuracy score over time, and shows you exactly which types of work you consistently underquote. It's like a fitness tracker for your terrible scoping habits.
