    I posted this yesterday and kept building. Original post got some good feedback about wanting more domain-specific personas beyond the generic analyst/contrarian archetypes. So I added them. 35 personas now, organized into actual professional structures: Law Firm — Litigator + Corporate Counsel + Compliance Officer + Junior Associate, synthesized by a Senior Partner Hospital Team — GP + Specialist + Pharmacist + Medical Ethicist, synthesized by Chief of Medicine Editorial Team — Reporter + Editor + Legal Reviewer + SEO lead, synthesized by Editor-in-Chief Corporate — CFO + CTO + CMO +…

    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!

    i made a council of advisors to help me code. as a self taught dev, ive been heavily reliant on ai for the past two years. found myself often prompting claude to take on different personalities, so i built a web app. it's great for the step before telling cursor what to do and reviewing prs once theyre ready.
