Equanimity Engine

Know your Leverage Score. Stop needing your job.

What it does

Most financial tools show you a dashboard and leave you to figure out the rest. Equanimity Engine diagnoses your specific bottleneck — dependency ratio, savings velocity, cash runway, or income concentration — and tells you exactly what to fix first. Three outputs: a Leverage Score, your #1 bottleneck, and a personalized 12-month action blueprint. No generic advice. No jargon. Just your numbers and a sequenced plan. Built for high earners who feel trapped despite earning well.

    I quit coding years ago. AI brought me backJan 2026 · calquio.com · ▲314

    Quick background: I used to code. Studied it in school, wrote some projects, but eventually convinced myself I wasn't cut out for it. Too slow, too many bugs, imposter syndrome — the usual story. So I pivoted, ended up as an investment associate at an early-stage angel fund, and haven't written real code in years. Fast forward to now. I'm a Buffett nerd — big believer in compound interest as a mental model for life. I run compound interest calculations constantly. Not because I need to, but because watching numbers grow over 30-40 years keeps me patient when markets get wild. It's basically…

    We used investor tools to find the best startups to work at2022 · joinmaasive.com · ▲29

    hey y'all -- can you please tell us if our job search tool sucks? :D we built it using an investor platform called Harmonic.ai to gather startup data, then contextualize it so that job seekers could find out about the most exciting startups hiring first (like if they just raised, growing headcount fast, have an ex-unicorn founder, etc). pretty sure we're the first platform doing anything like this. anyway, let me know what you think. really excited to launch this thing soon! getting feedback from the hn community first is really fun :)

    My side project is helping me manage my finances2023 · financemadelovely.com · ▲9

    For years, I have struggled to understand my cash flow and save for the future. In addition to that, my wife has many credit cards and accounts that complicate matters. I am building a tool that connects all our accounts, helps us create a budget, and tracks and adjusts expenses on the fly. I am also sprinkling some AI magic on it for financial suggestions. I am looking for feedback on the implementation. More importantly, I am looking for more beta testers to improve the product.

    Dealwise, an investment bank that scales with AI instead of analysts2024 · godealwise.com · ▲15

    Hi hacker news, We’re a former PM and software engineer from Robinhood who decide to start an investment bank for startups. In 2023, we had just shut down our previous YC-backed startup Psychic (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36032081). We were one of many startups building generative AI infrastructure long before it had become apparent what the applications were going to be, and it turns out the bet we made was wrong. This might sound familiar to anyone who’s been through the web3 hype cycle, but it was a big learning for us. Around the same time, we noticed a lot of…

    We’re Scott and Sunny—two long-time personal finance nerds. When we met 6 years ago we compared our personal finance spreadsheets. Ours were packed with macros, scenarios, and tax modeling—but even then, found they were not complete. Planning for financial independence is hard, and the cost of mistakes is high. So we built the tool we always wanted: MoneyOnFIRE. MOF calculates a personalized, tax-aware roadmap to financial independence—across account types, life goals, and withdrawal strategies. It shows you not just if you can achieve financial indepdendence, but how, when, and what to…

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
