hiFred
Turn discovery into specs, specs into handoffs, chaos into clarity
About
hiFred is an AI copilot built by product people, for Product Managers. It works across every stage of the PM workflow - discovery, spec writing, engineering handoff, and team alignment - so PMs spend less time on coordination and more time on strategy.
hiFred introduces Live Specs: PRDs that evolve with every decision and conversation instead of going stale. Engineers get frictionless handoffs, cross-functional teams stay in sync automatically, and nothing slips through the cracks.
hiFred connects to your existing stack (Jira, Linear, Notion, Figma, Slack, GitHub), requires no migration, and is model-agnostic - use any LLM or bring your own tokens.

Specificity → visible outcomes → stronger bonds → retention
The retention engine of a paid micro-community isn't "more content" — it's visible wins by members. When every win is on-thesis (someone shipped, someone made their first dollar, someone hit the next stair-step), other members see themselves in it and the trust compounds. Design rituals that surface those wins publicly inside the community: weekly progress threads, win channels, founder shoutouts. Visibility of progress IS the retention mechanic.
if they X out of this paywall or escape it will take them to a transaction abandoned paywall which is basically just a discounted offer for only $20 a year
Use an Abandoned Paywall to Capture Price-Sensitive Users With a Discount
Evan runs a two-tier paywall: the primary offer is $40/year or $7/week with a 3-day free trial. Anyone who exits without converting is immediately shown a 50%-off fallback. This salvages revenue from users who balked at full price without cheapening the main offer for users willing to pay it.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
