TuningMac
A system-wide equalizer and per-app volume mixer for Mac, in your menu bar.
What is TuningMac?
TuningMac is a Mac app that lives in your menu bar and gives you a system-wide equalizer and a separate volume control for every app. Shape the sound of Spotify, YouTube, Zoom, games and anything else that makes sound, with nine presets or your own parametric EQ of up to 20 bands. Headphones can be tuned with an imported AutoEQ correction for your model.
It can also play through several outputs at once, such as AirPods, speakers, a TV and your Mac, each with its own volume and EQ. Music fades down automatically when a call starts in apps like Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Discord, Slack and FaceTime.
TuningMac also offers noise cancelling and transparency controls for supported Sony, AirPods, realme and OPPO headphones, right from the menu bar. It needs no virtual audio driver, kernel extension or admin password, and it is private, with no account and no analytics.
It is a one-time purchase with a 7-day free trial and free updates included for life. Requires macOS 14.2 Sonoma or later.

When I had the idea for resend I knew this is the type of business that requires capital I really believe I need a generous free tier because I want empower other indie hackers and I know that when they're just getting started they need a way to try it out and then if it plays out okay this is good then they'll start paying later
Pick the funding model that fits the business, not the tribe
Zeno ran Dracula Pro as a lifestyle business on Gumroad — it couldn't scale into infrastructure. Resend was different: a generous free tier for indie hackers required capital up front, so VC was the right fit. Match the funding route to what the business actually needs, not to tribal allegiance about 'bootstrappers vs VC.'
I had only like $1,000 left and I didn't want to go work on like shitty jobs like I did for I don't know six or seven years to pay like for everything else. My girlfriend I remember she was paying the rent, she didn't believe in me anymore. An unfair advantage I would say that you can have when you launch a company is if you're among the target audience of what you're building, because if you're using your product daily then the pace at which you improve the product is 100 times better.
Bootstrap From $1,000 By Being Inside Your Own Target Audience
Down to his last $1,000 with his girlfriend covering rent, Guillaume bootstrapped lemlist without outside money. His unfair advantage was being his own target customer, which compounded product quality faster than any cash injection could.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
