CREAO▲738Hi HN! I'm North, DevRel from the CREAO team. We are a 15-20 person startup, and we spent a couple of months building this vibe coding product. We've been exploring the possibilities of how agents should assist people's work for productivity in various scenarios. Three months ago, we noticed that all small teams and companies are struggling with subscribing to multiple SaaS tools that never fit their exact needs. Pretty much all founders and SMB professionals need customized productivity tools that fit their daily work routines, but they don't have developers to build these lightweight tools…

Hey HN friends, I keep getting distracted working from home and always end up watching youtube, browsing blogs like HN or just mindlessly scrolling then I feel like crap because I didn’t do enough. I went through dozens of productivity tools but they’re quite overwhelming to use and none of them actually helped me focus. So I built http://complish.ai, a web-based sidebar that helps me focus on one task at a time. I launched it last month and have over 3,000 users now and I’ll be keeping it free. Would love for you all to try and give some feedback!

WorkFlawless▲22When I started building WorkFlawless, I wasn’t trying to launch a product. I was simply trying to solve a problem that was slowing us down—every single day—in my current company. My current company was trying to scale. And when you scale, a whole new set of problems comes at you. I realized most of them had to do with processes. Undocumented company processes were creating so much chaos and disruption. They lived in someone’s head, or worse, in outdated docs buried in random Drive folders. Onboarding was inconsistent. Everyone had their own slightly different way of doing things, which made…

Hi HN, I'm Cristina from CommandBar (YC S20). You've heard how lack of focus kills startups. We were afraid of this too. So for the past 3 years, we built “user assistance” tools for desktop and web apps only. (Stuff like an embedded Copilot trained on your product, cmd+k search, nudges, etc.) It took a lot of self-convincing but we’ve decided to finally launch all of this for mobile today too. In hindsight, we actually regret not doing it sooner. The more we dug into customer feedback, the more we realized how much more pronounced the problems we're solving on desktop are on mweb and native…

We created Slash (https://getslash.co/hn) after realizing that todo list apps are hopelessly broken. They're great at making lists, but offer you no help in crossing them off. In fact, they often create even more stress when you're staring at a list 100 items longs. Slash is a task "do-er" that helps you CRUSH your list by focusing on one task at a time. Quickly enter your tasks, hit 'Start', and the window shrinks down to a small always-on-top window that shows your current task and how long you've been working on it. When you're done, hover over the task name and click…

Hey hackers, Like many of you, I'm always trying to optimize my productivity, and I have tried a lot of apps out there to do so. I didn't find the exact one that I could use, so I built one for myself. Check it out and let me know if you have any thoughts!

I am working on this because I am always afraid of building things that people don't actually want. I let agents role-play analysis the idea, quote and debate with each other. Still working on the output quality, every feedback is priceless. Pls try it out!

In my long career as an “almost digital entrepreneur” (a fancy way to say I’ve tried a thousand things online without making a single cent), I never really felt that “this is it, I’m so close, I’ll finally quit everything and update my passport: job title? SaaS founder.” (Small detail: I don’t even have a passport. But I like to imagine that if I did, I’d want something cooler than “unemployed creative” written on it). For years, I collected side projects, hobbies, half-dead MVPs, and random nonsense, all with the same ending: super hyped at the beginning, burned out in the middle,…

b4zero▲7It started out when I thought about how to help founder to validate their idea, not just coming up one but how to turn the idea into real business by not relying on AI but making them more involved into their product, understand the market by doing research, check what user want. It's like a checklist, a step for someone who want to get start. This is not an AI to go tool, it's a tool to drag user back to reality, simple but important. I don't think I'm gonna make money with it so I decide it will be a free to use. Use referral code "beyondzero" to sign up. Thanks

A couple of weeks ago I was listening to a conversation with Elon Musk where he mentioned something that stuck with me. At Tesla, they don’t run every possible simulation. They focus on the ones that produce real signal. The branches that generate learning. The boring ones get pruned because they teach nothing. That idea kept rattling around in my head. If we take the simulation hypothesis seriously (as he does), maybe the same applies more broadly: only timelines that produce learning are worth exploring. The ones where people take clear positions, make bold calls, and are willing to be…
