    I've launched on Product Hunt, Beta List, Peer push and similar platforms but the problem is they only show top 5 on on first page view you have to click "see more" and scroll to see the next 10 products, also total products are up to 100+ especially product hunt, usually people don't scroll that deep if your product is above top 20 you're much likely invisible and buried down the list, On top of that, paid Ads occupies 30 - 40% of the screen, what about the small startups and solo makers who just getting started and wants to get their first users and don't have budget to advertise? It's…

    As a founder, I've always had the hardest time building landing pages. You either buy a template and spend hours editing, or scream at Cursor to "make it beautiful". It's exhausting and waste of our time as founders. We simply need AI to generate beautiful landing pages that we can ship. I'd been working on this problem statement for a while and was able to get great results when I provided AI with a detailed design system to follow. So I ended up building a collection where I've curated 100s of design systems for AI tools to use. Now, after launch of Nano-Banana, I updated our flow to first…

    I use AI agents to build UI features daily. The thing that kept annoying me: the agent writes code but never sees what it actually looks like in the browser. It can’t tell if the layout is broken or if the console is throwing errors. So I built a CLI that lets the agent open a browser, interact with the page, record what happens, and collect any errors. Then it bundles everything — video, screenshots, logs — into a self-contained HTML file I can review in seconds. proofshot start --run "npm run dev" --port 3000 # agent navigates, clicks, takes screenshots proofshot stop It works with…

    Hey HN, I’m a product designer on a payments team. Every time we were close to shipping a feature, we’d run a bug bash in a giant Google doc or spreadsheet: copy the spec in, write the test cases, ask people to mark Pass/Fail, paste screenshots, then manually turn everything into Jira tickets. It worked, but it always felt a bit painful. Instead of another heavy test management tool, I wanted something that feels closer to the tools we actually like using. More Linear/Notion, less old-school QA. With Preflight, you paste your product requirements and Figma link and get an initial…

    Last week I wrote about building a scanner that writes its own exploits. A cron job runs Claude Code every night, it reads new CVEs, writes proof-of-concept checks, tests them against vulnerable and patched Docker instances, and opens PRs. I review and merge in the morning. That post was about how t

    Prexist▲15

    Hey HN I built Prexist, an AI-powered tool that helps founders, PMs, and VCs quickly find out if their startup idea already exists, across 8 major platforms like Product Hunt, YC, GitHub, Crunchbase, and the App Stores. Until recently, running searches across all these platforms in parallel took ~60 seconds. We’ve just integrated Exa AI for search orchestration, and it’s now 3× faster while returning more relevant, semantically matched results. What it does: - Uses AI to understand your product idea and generate smart search queries - Searches 8 discovery and innovation platforms…
