RankAI▲581Hey HN, we are building Rankai (https://www.rankai.ai), an AI agent that pushes SEO blogs and code fixes automatically to your site. My teammate previously scaled a product to 4M users via organic traffic and SEO. And we understood the importance of driving SEO traffic for small businesses. But after we talked to a lot of small businesses and startups, we realized that majority are not doing SEO at all. For them, learning and doing SEO weekly is too time-consuming, and no way they'd hire an agency for $4k+. So we tried to automate each step of SEO process in an agentic way using…

Influencer AI▲272Hi HN, We’re a two‑person team (Anika & Zeeshaan) and we’ve spent the last 8 months building The Influencer AI: https://www.theinfluencer.ai What it does: Spin up a consistent AI persona from either a handful of trait sliders or ~10 photos of a real person (yourself, a model, a client). Use that same "AI influencer" to generate: - photos & virtual try‑ons - talking‑head video reels (image‑to‑video + voice) -ad creatives in any pose, setting or style. All assets come with full commercial rights. How it works under the hood: Frontend: Next.js 15 (static where possible) Backend /…

Person search APIfree▲790Hi HN! We’re Abhilash Chowdhary, Chris Pisarski and Manmohit Grewal. We built Crustdata (YC F24). Today we’re launching our web search API for AI agents, which not only returns the most relevant documents from the web but also maps them to the correct entity (person, company or event). Demo video here https://youtu.be/IouWW97hBN8 If you run agents at scale, tokens become a line item. The web data is the worst input: long pages, repeated content, mixed entities, stale claims. The usual web search -> scrape -> summarize + structure forces the agent to spend tokens doing…

As a founder, finding early customers is always a challenge. I'd come up with specific guesses for people to talk to - such "VCs that used to be startup founders" or "Former lawyers who are now CTOs." Running those types of searches typically involves opening dozens of LinkedIn profiles in tabs, and looking at them one-by-one. And, it turns out that going through LinkedIn profiles one-by-one is a daily job for many people. I started building Find AI to make it easier to search for people. I initially started just having GPT review people's LinkedIn profiles and websites, but it cost…

Linkeddit▲618The tool actually hit Product Hunt #1 back in February. Since then I’ve added a bunch more on top of the original version. Now you just describe the intent or goal for the leads you want, and it searches based on keywords and a bunch of other signals to surface the best ones for you. I also added a Reddit-powered content writer. Basically, you pick a topic or category, and it pulls the top posts from Reddit, analyzes what made them go viral, and helps you write content using the same patterns. Reddit is super underrated for content. If something blows up there, it almost always spreads to…

Gro▲373Hey HN, I am Leo Jiang, founder of Gro. I built this to solve the problem of fragmented sales stacks where teams waste hours between lead databases and outreach tools. Gro is a unified AI sales agent that combines a 1b+ contact database with AI propensity scoring and automated outreach across Email and LinkedIn. By putting prospecting and engagement into one workspace, we eliminate manual data hunting so sales reps can focus on closing deals. I would love your thoughts on our approach to automated B2B growth.

mention.click▲161I built mention.click to help founders and marketers find real business leads, feedback, and opportunities by uncovering the right discussions on Reddit, without the hassle of keyword research. Backstory I was trying to prove ideas and products, I didn't like existing tools like ReplyGuy, Gummy search, while being cool, didn't work for me. I needed a specialized solution to find conversations where I could speak about my project, driven by AI (Not really) just filtering out extra noise. How it works You give a link to the website. mention.click uses AI to extract keywords and context. It…

Hey everyone! I’m excited to announce the release of my last project, MiniSearch. I admire Perplexity.ai, Phind.com, You.com, Bing, Bard and all these search engines integrated with AI chatbots. And as a curious developer, I took the chance and created my own version. Using Web-LLM and Transformers.js to provide browser-based text-generation models on desktop and mobile, I built a minimalist self-hosted search app on which an AI analyses the results, comments on them and responds to your query summarising the info. In the backend, it still queries a real search engine, but besides that,…

Hey HN! My name is Christian, and I’m the co-founder of https://frigade.ai. We’ve built an AI agent that automatically learns how to use any web-based product, and in turn guides users directly in the UI, automatically generates documentation, and even takes actions on a user’s behalf. Think of it as Clippy from the old MS Office. But on steroids. And actually helpful. You can see the agent and tool-calling SDK in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPe0t3A1Vpg How is this different from other AI customer support products? Most AI "copilots" are really just…
