Blink Ideas
Over this past weekend I built a web app called Blink Ideas. It finds customer complaints and feedback on places like HN, StackExchange, app store reviews, and more. Then it generates real startup solutions, scored with their investment opportunity based risk, market appeal, scalability, and other major factors. It provides a solution, MVP, and even competitor list to help you gain insights before building. Now more than ever, starting a business or building an app is the easy part. Creating something that makes money that people actually want is the hard part. That's why I built this app.…
Blink Ideas launched on August 3, 2026 with 3 votes, #2,940 of 23,274 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.

In the maker’s words, at launch
I built an idea machine that finds customer complaints, reviews, and requests and turns them into real startup ideas. Now you don't have to keep building products or services that people don't use, no more guessing, just winning. These are real requests, from real potential customers, and they are grounded in their…

Hey HN, I’m Kyrylo. I recently created a small tool that lets you gather, refine, and validate SaaS/startup ideas using AI. I used to jot down my product ideas in a note apps, but it wasn’t very practical for collecting feedback or refining them. So, I built this tool to make the process easier. Here’s how it works: 1. Enter a brief description of your idea. 2. The app uses AI to generate project details. 3. Share your idea via a link that includes a feedback form. It’s pretty straightforward, and I’d love to hear your thoughts or any suggestions!
My startup-idea scanner scored 500 ideas; the best got 6.3/10Aug 2026 · 1mil.app · ▲8I built a tool (https://1mil.app/hn) to help me test my intuition about various weird business ideas that were on my mind. Initially, I wanted to create a database with 1 million business ideas (hence the name - "1 million opportunities"). But turned out to be a dumb idea already. So instead I built this tool that returns only 10 ideas. It's all based on your input, market + your background. The first release scored on demand only and it gave false confidence. So I rebuilt the the scoring around "winnability": can a solo founder with a specific background "win" against what…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
