Gigacatalyst – Extend your SaaS with an embedded AI builder
Hi HN, I’m Namanyay from Gigacatalyst (link: https://gigacatalyst.com/). Gigacatalyst allows sales, CS, and users to build one-off features, so your SaaS can support long-tail customer workflows and engineers aren’t pulled away from the roadmap. When you sell software to large businesses, you realize that each customer needs their own workflow and features. Traditionally, this either means long engineering roadmaps or the customers end up using workarounds. But what if everyone could build their critical missing features just by talking to an AI? That’s what we do at…

CREAO2025 · creao.ai · ▲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…

Would love your feedback pls. Anyone…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
