Thanks for jumping in, @derwiki! I'm not a programmer but love this concept. It reminds me of the professional editing services @natekontny has built into Draft (http://draftin.com). What type of people are using it now and how are they using the product? P.S. ironically, @leemunroe posted a similar/complementary product, CodeShare.io (http://codeshare.io) earlier today: http://www.producthunt.co/posts/...

@derwiki - you're the man! Hopefully you don't get too inundated with requests (we're on the front page of HN right now). How are you acquiring customers today?

Oh where are my manners? If you mention "ProductHunt" in your review request, we'll give you one hour of expert review for free :)

Hey everyone, I've been building this product out for the last four weeks. I know there's a need for this service, I just need to find potential customers and make sure the web site looks appealing to them. I'd appreciate any feedback or suggestions you have!

@rrhoover I started using Draft yesterday :) Professional editing on demand is nice, but having a writing equivalent of Pull Requests is the killer feature for me. Currently, the use case has been reviewing code written by contractors. But my sample size is still small CodeShare.io looks neat, but also closer to my friend's CoderPad.io than matchmaking software experts. Definitely an overlapping set of interested users though, I would suspect.

$50/hr is more than a lot of good programmers think they're worth and is completely reasonable compared to what expert consultants pay. I still haven't decided if all review costs the same, or if different experts can set different rates.

@rrhoover none so far. I'm working on setting up a newsletter so I can add a quick "Sign up for announcements and promotions" to capture people who like the service BUT don't currently have a need for it.

@derwiki - yup! Perhaps you guys should partner. :) How did you decide on pricing?
