oos

What It Is

oos (오늘의 서비스, "today's services") is a Korean site that picks two apps and web services worth trying every day. Each pick gets a one-line summary, a short description, three situations where it helps, its price, Korean support and the devices it runs on, all on one screen. It is free.

The Problem

New apps and web services appear every day, but most introductions are in English or stay inside developer communities. To find out whether a service is useful, works in Korean or costs money, a regular user has to open each official site. oos does that checking and shows the answer in short Korean.

Who It Is For

• People who like new tools: they enjoy trying things but have no time to hunt for them
• Students and office workers: looking for free apps for study, work and hobbies
• Social media readers: people who enjoy short recommendations on Instagram and Threads

How It Works

1. Today's two: the home page shows the screens and one-line summaries of today's two picks.
2. Details: open a pick to see its price, Korean support, devices and three use cases.
3. Try it: "Visit site" goes to the official site or the App Store.
4. Find it again: past picks are grouped as recent picks and by month.

Features

• Two a day: two new services every morning. A service is never picked twice.
• Apply with your own service: Mr. Latte members can apply by email to have an app or web service they made featured. Applications are judged by the same standards as every other pick.
• Facts at a glance: price, Korean support, devices and three use cases shown as tiles.
• Real screens: the first screen of a web service or App Store screenshots of an app.
• Past picks: recent picks plus monthly pages.
• Social cards: each pick becomes an Instagram and Threads card.
• RSS and site summary: an RSS feed and an llms.txt summary for AI search.

Product Decisions

• Facts only from official sources: each write-up is based only on the official site or App Store listing, and is checked again for features or prices that the source does not mention.
• Clear picking rules: is it useful for regular users right away, can it be used in Korea, can it be started for free. Banking, shopping and store apps, and services everyone already knows, are left out.
• Games and maker launches live elsewhere: GameSnapshots covers games and StartupXO covers products posted by their makers.
• No login to read: public pages need no account.
• Tiles, not walls of text: rounded tiles of different sizes hold the screen and the facts so a pick can be skimmed in seconds.

Revenue Model

• Free: there is no payment. The screen shown before leaving for an external site carries the family's shared ad slot.

Next Hypotheses

• Whether the two-a-day rhythm brings people back.
• Whether Instagram and Threads cards become an entry point to the site.
• Which categories (AI, productivity, learning) get opened most, to refine the picking rules.
