Next Saturday, my Substack Saturday newsletter will officially turn four months old. Wow.

From forming the idea, to reaching out to the first guests, to slowly realizing how much effort actually goes into producing one final piece, I’ve learned so much along the way.

More than anything, I feel incredibly grateful.

I’ve reached out to many founders, and most of them have been so kind, helpful, and responsive. I can’t really offer them much in return, yet they are still willing to spend their time writing thoughtful guest posts and sharing the messy, honest parts of their journeys with me.

There have also been a few situations I genuinely cannot wrap my head around on Reddit.

I once reached out to someone through DM. They immediately agreed to participate. Then, while I was trying to set everything up, they suddenly deleted their entire account.

I still have absolutely no idea what happened.

Anyway, four months later, I’m still here, still learning, and still looking for interesting people to feature.

The newsletter is called "They Moved the Needle". I invite founders who have actually gotten paid customers to share how they did it, what didn’t work, what they learned, and what finally moved the needle.

Here is the latest issue:https://xianli.substack.com/p/how-he-built-a-reddit-company-to

If you’ve built a SaaS, physical product, course, coaching business, service, app, newsletter, or honestly anything that someone has paid you for, I’d love to hear your story.

You don’t need a huge business or an impressive revenue number. I’m much more interested in the real journey behind getting someone to pay for something you created.

If you’d be interested in writing a guest post, feel free to DM me. :)

Kia ora HN,

I built Spread, an API for New Zealand grocery data.

https://spread.butterup.app

Groceries are really expensive in New Zealand and there is barely any competition in the supermarkets monopolies that control the whole grocery market

I was originally collecting grocery pricing data for ButterUp.app, a supermarket comparison app I’ve been building for NZ.

At some point I realised the data layer was probably useful on its own, so I pulled it out into a separate API. So, that anyone who is building a business to open a grocery supermarket in NZ, they can get latest prices of their competitors and based on that they can price their own products.

Spread currently covers products and pricing from Pak’nSave, New World and Woolworths (the giant supermarkets over here in New Zealand).

It gives you:

* product search * current price observations * competitor price comparisons * structured API responses * API keys and usage limits * MCP support for AI agents

The main use cases I had in mind were price comparison apps, grocery analytics, AI shopping tools, businesses adjusting their prices based on grocery market conditions, and anything else that needs NZ supermarket data without having to build the collection layer from scratch.

It’s still early.

There’s a 7-day free trial if anyone wants to play around with it.

Would be keen to get feedback, especially from people who have built data APIs, scraping pipelines, MCP servers, or developer tools.

Happy to answer technical questions about how I’m collecting, normalising and serving the data.
