dropanda

I sold digital products before I ever wrote code — coloring books and activity books on Amazon KDP. Good products, zero traffic. Nobody finds you unless you already have an audience, and platforms like Gumroad and Payhip are excellent at checkout but offer zero discovery.

When I started building software, I saw the same gap everywhere: templates, courses, UI kits, and SaaS tools with real value, sitting invisible. So I built Dropanda — a free discovery marketplace where creators list for free, and buyers find them organically.

The differentiator is a transparent pay-to-rank leaderboard instead of an opaque algorithm — anyone can see exactly what the top spot costs and decide if it's worth it. Built solo from Dhaka, Bangladesh.
