Hi HN, Last year, we launched a non-profit AI research lab called AI Grant (http://aigrant.org). Our goal is to fund promising people around the world working on AI. No strings attached. We've since given away over $100,000 to 30 teams working on different projects. You can see some of them here: http://aigrant.org/#finalists. We just started accepting applications for our third batch! The academic grant application process is burdensome. It's only avalible to a choice few. Applications take days to complete. AI Grant is open to anyone on the internet. You can apply…

Student debt is troubling so many recent graduates that we decided to graduate debt-free from the university. We launched FundingFyre - a database of startup pitch decks, pitch videos and investment memos… all together 1,500+ items. You can filter the resources by funding round, size, etc. Many of you might be raising Seed or Series-A funding and these resources would be immensely helpful. We kept it a paid service to earn enough to pay our tuition fees and cover living expenses. But for the HackerNews community, we have a 50% discount, please use code “HN2022”. We’re four students (Grade 12…

As a founder without an audience, building great products is no longer enough. It is difficult to find first paying users, grow, and discover where and how to reach them. You have to find the right people through the noise. As a founder who likes to break the rules, I discovered a method. I unlocked reaching 10.000+ real potential customers as low cost as $50 with 90% successful targeting. Solution: Twitter custom audience lists. This is the Holy Grail. you can turn it into a lead generating machine by using custom audience list. Twitter lets you use lists to target. But there is more…

Hi HN, I've built a grant discovery tool to help researchers speed up the grant application process. You can try out the grant search engine without signing up but for the personalized email newsletter but you will have to sign up and create a profile with your research interests. Please let us know if you have any feedback :) Background: My co-founder and I come from research backgrounds and one of the most common complaints we heard is how much time PI's spend finding and applying for funding (up to 50% of a researchers time) It currently takes 2-3 weeks to find the right grant to apply…

Hey HN, I’m a solopreneur and have been in the SaaS space for the past 3 years. My last 3 startups failed, and a common challenge in all of them was figuring out how to reach my audience. Recently I started with cold outreach (its a struggle, since I dont have much experience with marketing). I am finding leads mainly using exa.ai websets (web vector search, extremelly good for multiple use cases, recommend checking them out) and then sending them through smartlead. I ran the campaign for the past 30 days and 12-15% emails always bounced. This wasted my email credits & chances of reaching…
