Founderly – an AI cofounder to take you from idea to launch

Hi HN, I’ve been building www.founderly.xyz — a tool to help founders turn ideas into actual products. The problem: a lot of people have startup ideas but get stuck because they don’t have a technical cofounder or the resources to hire one. The approach: Founderly acts like an AI cofounder. Instead of being just one “assistant,” it spins up domain-specific agents (tech, design, marketing, legal) to guide you at different stages: • From rough idea → actionable plan • Plan → MVP • MVP → launch and early traction We are opening early access soon. If you’re curious, you can join the waitlist…

    Most people are not validating their ideas before start building it! I am a 5th time tech founder, gaming included and I built & managed startup accelerator programs. I know lot of things about early stage founders and their pains as I have been there. That is why I am building Foundera. It’s an AI-Native Accelerator for tech builders. Today the problem is; most of the AI coding tools opens with a chat and asking “type your idea and start building”. This is wrong! I want to reduce the time and money spent on ideas that nobody asked for. Try it at https://foundera.app and give me…

  • Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…
