FoundersWall▲35I used to be just a blogger. Now I build internet products, still without code, using AI, design, and taste. I was building in public on X for last 2 months. And honestly, I got tired of how it became performative and started to feel fake. I shipped 2 products. Both failed to get any real traction. I kept sneaking into popular builders’ profiles, hoping to learn how they do it. One thing I kept seeing everywhere, product launch directories. I thought here is the scope. So I started building one. Same UI like the rest. Nothing special. Suddenly one day when it was half built, I realized…

hey y'all -- can you please tell us if our job search tool sucks? :D we built it using an investor platform called Harmonic.ai to gather startup data, then contextualize it so that job seekers could find out about the most exciting startups hiring first (like if they just raised, growing headcount fast, have an ex-unicorn founder, etc). pretty sure we're the first platform doing anything like this. anyway, let me know what you think. really excited to launch this thing soon! getting feedback from the hn community first is really fun :)

Hey HN, I'm Aydin, a 13-year-old developer and indie maker looking to improve the world with my small startups. Recently, I built 2 micro SaaS projects. I spent days & weeks coding features, always telling myself that after coding one more feature I was for sure to get traction. This never happened. The reason: I never launched. With IndieReq, you can launch your startup fast and get real user feedback so you know exactly what features to ship and improve. All you have to do is sign up for free, create a feedback board, and share the public link with your users. It's that easy! If you've…

Claim.Watch▲21Today I received the official confirmation: Claim Watch just won the Best Product Award at the Half Baked x Bolt Founder Hackathon. There were 20,000+ participants globally. I made the TOP 5, and then 130,000 people voted for Claim Watch to win first place ($7,500 prize). First-week impact: 1,000+ active users 1,000+ settlements identified $800k+ recovered for people I built this during the hackathon, and now it seems to be turning into a real product. Happy to answer questions about the tech, stack, or how the system works.

Hi HN. I'm a founder working on a sales tool. I found my own pitch was a major weak point, so I created a 10-point framework to grade it objectively based on best practices (value prop, social proof, etc.). I'm trying to validate if this is a problem other founders face. The scorecard is just a simple page with the checklist. Any feedback on the framework itself would be really appreciated.

I'm tired of seeing founders building stuff for months and years that nobody would ever pay for. They just don't see it, like most other founders learn to do. Business validation = making money, and nothing else really. If you really wanna make money this year, I can help you do it.

I build a lot of small products myself and I realized how many indie founders want an exit that doesn’t involve platforms charging large commissions or requiring big revenue numbers. Sometimes a project makes $50/month, sometimes $500, sometimes $0 but has a great codebase, and that’s enough value for someone else. So I built buy-startups.com, a very simple, privacy-friendly marketplace for buying and selling small online startups. It’s not fancy. There’s no commission, no listing fee, no hidden funnel. Just a straightforward way for indie devs and bootstrappers to list a project and…

Hey folks. I have been working on Unsolved.xyz for a bit now. The idea was to help idea stage entrepreneurs make progress using a combination of a self serve game and Founder to Founder problem solving 1. Automated To-Dos that help them make progress from one level to the next 2. As you progress you get access to a network of high reputation founders 3. You gain reputation by helping other founders solve challenges and getting unstuck Reputation is live, but not the To-Dos. It looks a little like a mashup between product hunt and stack overflow. But it is for ideas I really was hoping you…
