FoundersDeck

EU-native founder toolkit — monitoring, status pages & more.

What it does

Most monitoring tools are US-hosted — CLOUD Act, VC pressure, data leaving the EU. FoundersDeck is built differently. We're building a 5-in-1 founder toolkit, hosted 100% in Germany. ✅ Uptime monitoring (HTTP, Ping, Keyword) ✅ Public status pages with custom domains ✅ Multi-channel alerts 🔜 Changelog & release notes 🔜 Feature request & feedback board 🔜 Privacy-first analytics One EU-native platform instead of five separate tools. Free tier available, no credit card required.

My goal was to create a tool with a solid essential feature set, and to make it easy to self-host. I welcome any feedback or suggestions.

    StartupList EU – A public directory of European startups2025 · startup-list.eu · ▲14

    I’m from Europe, and when I spent a summer at Stanford, I saw how different the startup ecosystem is in the US. Everything there feels connected. In Europe, it’s scattered. Hard to discover early-stage startups unless you’re in the right city or network. So I built StartupList EU, a public directory where anyone can list or browse European startups. The goals is to contribute to the EU startup ecosystem more accessible and transparent for founders, investors and operators. What it does: - Founders can submit their startup for free - Each profile includes data like team size, category,…

    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.
