Roastboard

Why This is an Opportunity

Design feedback is broken everywhere — it's either too polite, too scattered, or too late. A focused tool that makes internal critique fast, anonymous, and structured is something every design team would try immediately. Fun to build because the UI itself needs to be gorgeous.

Key Pain Points

  • Figma comments become a graveyard — 47 threads, half unresolved, nobody knows what's decided
  • People sugarcoat feedback when their name is attached, so bad designs slip through to clients
  • There's no quick way to get a gut-check from 5 teammates without scheduling a meeting
  • Client-facing review tools exist but internal team critique tools are basically nonexistent

Original Discovery

Design agencies and freelancers need honest, structured feedback on work-in-progress designs from their team before showing clients — but Slack threads and Figma comments are chaos. Roastboard lets you drop a screenshot or URL, your team scores it on specific criteria (clarity, brand fit, wow factor), and you get a clean scorecard with anonymous hot takes. It's like a private design crit room.
