    Most people are not validating their ideas before start building it! I am a 5th time tech founder, gaming included and I built & managed startup accelerator programs. I know lot of things about early stage founders and their pains as I have been there. That is why I am building Foundera. It’s an AI-Native Accelerator for tech builders. Today the problem is; most of the AI coding tools opens with a chat and asking “type your idea and start building”. This is wrong! I want to reduce the time and money spent on ideas that nobody asked for. Try it at https://foundera.app and give me…

    I made this for people like myself who keep a list of ideas for apps / startups. I also made it for people who are curious to see what projects others have "in their drawer"... and who may want to have a say in which idea should see the light of day. https://ideas.dynamate.io/ The site allows creators to anonymously showcase their idea: Title. Description text. Maybe some mockups... I've tried to make it so that it's quick and easy to just dump an idea in there that's been sitting on some list of yours for months - and hopefully get some feedback on it. If someone else on…

    Hey HN, I’m Kyrylo. I recently created a small tool that lets you gather, refine, and validate SaaS/startup ideas using AI. I used to jot down my product ideas in a note apps, but it wasn’t very practical for collecting feedback or refining them. So, I built this tool to make the process easier. Here’s how it works: 1. Enter a brief description of your idea. 2. The app uses AI to generate project details. 3. Share your idea via a link that includes a feedback form. It’s pretty straightforward, and I’d love to hear your thoughts or any suggestions!

    Hi Hackernews! My name is Sokrates and today I am launching indiebackers.dev I started working on Indiebackers once I realized that a lot of people (including myself) do all the heavy lifting, such as - A brand and logotype - Buy a domain - Make a landing page - Deploy a website - Coding if necessary All that jazz all to validate an idea? Existing platforms today focus primarily on launching. Indiebackers focus on the shaping of the idea until it's a MVP and ready to launch. Why would anyone want to become a early bird or adopter? What do indiehackers get from early birds and what do they…
