GTM iteration is slow by nature. Test the price, wrong. Fix the message, doesn't convert. Try a new audience, wrong segment. Pick a channel, no traction. Each mistake costs a month. By the time you've iterated to something that works, the market has moved - especially now, when AI is reshaping what buyers want every quarter. We built RightSuite to compress that cycle. Describe your offer and target audience. The system runs it through a synthetic buyer population and tells you what's likely broken before you go live. It won't replace talking to real customers. Nothing does. But it means you…

Hey HN, I kept seeing the same question asked over and over in startup communities: "What tech stack should I use for my SaaS?" The answers were always scattered, opinionated, and never accounted for budget or team size. So I built appstackbuilder.com — you tell it your monthly budget, app type, team size, and skill level, and it recommends a full stack (auth, database, hosting, payments, analytics, etc.) with actual pricing for each tool. A few things that make it different from generic advice: - It accounts for team size when calculating costs (e.g. Clerk charges per user, Linear charges…

For the last few months I have been analysing Peter Lynch’s books on stock picking and doing prompt engineering to check if AI could create useful stock analyses. To my surprise it started making reports that allow me to understand companies much faster with well cited sources. I hope you find it interesting and useful :) Perter Lynch’s books I analyzed: Learn to earn, One up on Wall Street, Beating the street

I’ve been experimenting with a graph-based approach to a classic trading problem: why most dip-buying strategies can’t tell the difference between a temporary overreaction and a genuine structural collapse. Most systems treat a −5% move the same regardless of context. My hypothesis was that where a company sits in the market’s structure matters more than the price move itself. The engineering idea I built a knowledge graph of the U.S. public markets with ~207k edges across ~21 relationship types, organized into four layers: Operational: supply-chain relationships (SUPPLIES_TO, PRODUCES)…

I've been lurking on HN for years. You know the drill: interesting headline, 200+ comments, you dive in thinking "I'll just skim for 5 minutes"... and an hour later you're 36 chambers deep in a thread about memory allocation patterns in Postgres and you've completely forgotten what the original article was about. I don't just want a "summary" (which usually just shortens the noise). I want the meta-consensus: "What is the actual trade-off being debated? Who is winning the argument? Why does this matter?" So I built HNSignals. Think of it less like a "summarizer" and more like a Chief of…

As a consultant I foot my own Cursor bills, and last month was $1,263. Opus is too good not to use, but there's no way to cap spending per session. After blowing through my Ultra limit, I realized how token-hungry Cursor + Opus really is. It spins up sub-agents, balloons the context window, and suddenly, a task I expected to cost $2 comes back at $8. My bill kept going up, but was I really going to switch to a worse model? No. So I built l6e: an MCP server that gives your agent the ability to budget. It works with Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Openclaw, and every MCP-compatible application.…

I used to run a startup back in 2018 where I built highly relevant prospect leads for companies manually. This is an Ai agent that does what I used to do manually - source, curate, enrich, qualify leads, and find the right decision makers with contact information. The Ai agent builds a custom database of leads automatically We just upgraded the new UI as well as made our agents smarter. Check out the new website: https://kurationai.com/ Demo: https://youtu.be/KmlGnP3dzkE?si=N6FZwNubi70hS4nJ Use "PHK15" to get 15% off on any plan. Thanks, Aurelien, Founder,…

Hi HN community, We're developing a free tool that aims to help founders and product teams estimate the costs of developing an MVP versus a full-scale product. Here's the gist: 1. You input a description of your idea into our AI Estimator. 2. It provides you with two estimates: one for an MVP and another for a complete product. We're sharing it here because we value the critical and insightful feedback that the HN community is known for. The tool is in its early stages, and we're looking to refine its accuracy and user experience. If you have a moment, please try it out:…

Hi everyone, Review here: http://www.adopilot.info Like any other field I believe that the numbers game of Facebook advertising is best left to algorithms. Yet very few people rely on Ad Automation for managing budgets, ROI, ROAS etc. In the dropshipping industry, people often use intuition to judge how much an ad should be scaled to. So, beginners often scale an ad by 10x, and see their CPC skyrocket by 5-10x. Frightened, they cut back their ad spend and conclude that FB ad spend doesn't scale. A systematic way of increasing ad spends by 10-15% per day while weeding out poor…

I posted this a few weeks ago and the server died under the traffic. Fixed that by adding an in-mem caching layer with Redis/valkey and added CloudFront caching for static content. Also upgraded the server. Also fixed the Firefox bugs, trying again. It's a research tool for US stocks. Financials for ~10k companies pulled from SEC filings. You can chart any metric across companies, filter news by ticker, ask questions in plain English and get a chart back. There's also SQL console against the whole database, which is the part I like to use together with the AI chat (generates an SQL…

Hello Folks, I am an indie developer, For the last 5 months I was freelancing by building GPT-powered chatbots. One of the challenges I faced was not having visibility into my OpenAI costs. This is why I have built a dashboard to get a complete breakdown of my OpenAI API usage through network calls from OpenAI. Please give it a try & help with feedback on how I can further improve the product,which can really add value and save some money. Note: 1)I found this API through the network logs of the billing screen. 2)The tool stores the OpenAI Key locally on the browser.

Hey HN, For the last couple of months, we have been building an AI agent for continuous statistical analysis, and we're looking for feedback while it's still early in development. We call it BIGWIG - an autonomous agent that is specialised, and very good at, performing advanced statistical analysis, through long traces of iteration and reasoning. As it builds statistical models it also "emits" outputs back to the user that you can then interact with, iterate on and schedule for follow up analysis. While we're still in BETA, we've launched a public analysis site that showcases some of the…

Hi! My OpenAI costs started going up recently and I hated how I couldn't figure out which model was costing me more? The OpenAI usage page (https://platform.openai.com/account/usage) gives a nice overall breakdown, but it doesn't go into detail about cost / model, token usage, and # requests. So I reverse engineered their API to make a better dashboard, and then made it free to use. Try it out and let me know what you think. Also please tell me what other features you wish existed here https://platform.openai.com/account/usage but doesn't yet.
