Viable Launch

Prove it. Before you build it.

What it does

Viable tests product ideas, messaging, and features with real and simulated users so you can see what people actually respond to — before you invest.

Validate product ideas with AI through user testing to understand what resonates with your audience before making investments.

Viable tests product ideas, messaging, and features with real and simulated users so you can see what people actually respond to — before you invest. Quickly validate product ideas, messaging, and features using real market behavior - not assumptions. Use your own audience, upload a customer list, or let Viable identify the right people to test with. Create landing pages and ads to see how people respond to your idea, messaging, or feature. Track clicks, engagement, and conversions to understand what people truly want. Generation alone doesn't reveal what customers actually want. Viable detects the behavioral signals that matter. This isn't research. It's a system. A continuous loop that…from getviable.ai

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    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…
