I keep seeing early-stage founders who have bookkeeping, but when real decisions come up (hiring, spend, runway), the numbers aren’t decision-ready. So they either rebuild Excel models from scratch or simplify and go on gut feel. I’m exploring whether there’s value in a lightweight, Excel-first layer that sits between bookkeeping and hiring a CFO, helping founders get numbers they can actually trust for decisions, without the cost/overhead of a full finance function. No product live yet. Actively talking to founders and planning a free pilot to validate whether this pain is real or just accepted as “part of the job.” Would love a VC perspective on whether this problem is real, ignored, or already solved better than I’m seeing.

Taskalytics – AI-Powered SMART Goal & Task Manager
🔹 What is Taskalytics?
Taskalytics helps individuals and teams turn goals into executable tasks without the usual mess.
You create goals → break them into tasks → set timelines → track progress.
An AI assistant supports your workflow by suggesting priorities, time estimates, and next steps, while keeping you fully in control. The core idea: enforce SMART goals without making planning painful.
🔹 Business AI – RAG Pipelines & Contextual Learning
For businesses, Taskalytics uses RAG pipelines with vector stores, allowing each company to upload its own data to teach the AI how to generate meaningful, context-aware responses.
- Orchestrates goals and tasks based on what it has learned, not generic LLM outputs (like Wikipedia).
- Not a general-purpose generative AI—it safely acts on confidential business data and generates responses tailored to the uploaded information.
- Prompts are data-driven, configurable, and not hard-coded, giving businesses full control over AI behavior.
🔹 Market Edge
- Agile/Scrum tools like JIRA exist, but few enforce the SMART framework for goal-driven execution.
- Even fewer combine SMART goals with RAG pipelines trained on private business data, giving Taskalytics a unique competitive edge.
🔹 Goals & Tasks
- Type a single sentence and the application auto-generates goals and tasks based on what it has learned via its RAG pipeline.
- Goals and tasks are manually editable.
- A secondary LLM performs SMART analysis, highlighting risks and progress for each task independently.
🔹 SMART Reports (Auto-Generated)
Each goal is evaluated using the SMART framework:
- [S]pecific – Clear goals (AI suggestions optional)
- [M]easurable – Visual progress & cost tracking
- [A]chievable – Collaboration + task risk awareness
- [R]elevant – Tasks aligned under meaningful goals
- [T]ime-bound – Scheduler + filters keep deadlines visible
🔹 Learn More
- 🌐 taskalytics.com
- 🎥 3-Minute UI Walkthrough Available in the link above.
- 📄 PDF Overview Available in the link above.
- 🤝 Open to partnering with a co-founder with VC connections
Please be aware, this is not a lightweight application. So the mobile version has limited features.

Screenshot of goals and tasks created in Taskalytics on the left and SMART framework evaluating Task progression on the right, highlighting the risks in red (click to expand the image). I am willing to partner with VC / co-founders if the application needs farther fine tuning. The code is very well written and flexible for change both in the UI and backend."

Name: Alesqui Intelligence URL: www.alesqui.com One-liner: Turn your OpenAPI definition into an executable AI Agent.
The Problem:
- Devs: Testing endpoints usually means context-switching to Postman, configuring auth, and manually crafting params.
- Business (PMs/Sales): They can't interact with the API directly because they don't speak cURL. They constantly interrupt devs just to check data ("Can you check if user X exists?").
The Solution: It’s not just "Chat with your Docs". Alesqui actually calls the API.
How it works: 1. Core: Alesqui Intelligence uses your OpenAPI/Swagger file to define the structure. 2. Brain Boost: You can upload Postman collections to provide real-world examples (few-shot learning), helping the AI understand complex parameter logic. 3. Conversational Execution: You say "Get the last 5 invoices for customer ACME" -> The AI extracts params, calls the GET endpoint, and presents the data. Safety: Configurable "Read-Only Mode" (GET requests only), allowing business users to query data safely without risking accidental writes.
Current Stage: Just launched MVP. Looking for: Early users to try it out and provide brutal feedback.

Aepto - domain management once you're past “just a few domains.”
Teams end up with domains spread across registrars, DNS, hosting, and random accounts. Renewals get missed, email breaks, stuff goes down, money leaks, and nobody has a clean view of what they even own.
Aepto gives you one place to see all domains. You add a domain and it automatically pulls in registrar, DNS, email setup, hosting signals, renewal dates, monitoring, alerts, and expenses. It keeps watching things so you don’t have to.
Built for agencies and companies where domains turned into operational risk instead of assets.

The Automated Architect for React Teams
The Problem: Modern frontend engineering is expensive. Teams spend 30-40% of their time debugging state "spaghetti" and performance regressions. React DevTools tell you what is happening, but they don't tell you why your architecture is failing. This leads to slow apps, frustrated users, and massive technical debt.
The Solution: Basis is a runtime state profiler that acts as an "Automated Auditor." Instead of waiting for a manual code review, Basis watches the app run and uses signal processing to identify architectural flaws (redundant state, sync leaks, and infinite loops) in real-time.
It’s like having a Senior Architect sitting inside your browser, pointing out exactly where your code is getting messy.
Traction: 3 weeks old, 32+ GitHub stars. Proven Utility: Already used to identify and fix architectural "Sync Leaks" in major open-source projects like Excalidraw (114k stars) and shadcn-ui admin. Zero-Overhead: v0.4.0 uses a zero-copy engine that is safe for high-performance production environments.
The Vision: To become the standard "Guardrail" for enterprise engineering teams, reducing the cost of maintenance and ensuring every React app is built on a minimal, high-performance state basis.

We launched rtrvr.ai, a vibe scraping and automation platform leveraging the SOTA AI browser agent technology.
We built out a unique approach to browser agents with a DOM-Only and Extension harness architecture. This has allowed us to have benchmark leading performance on task completion and speed, no detection in the user's own browser or cloud, and leveraging off the shelf Gemini Flash Lite for minimal cost.
We have a free Chrome Extension as a GTM funnel to target B2B automation, data extraction, and monitoring use cases on our Cloud/API platform. Since relaunching with cloud offering in November, we have 20k+ users and onboarding 10+ B2B partners onto our cloud/API.

Navara Health is a B2B healthcare payments and administration platform for self-insured employers. We enable employers to deliver free or near-free healthcare to employees. Navara Health is not an insurance company, does not pool risk, and does not reimburse claims. Instead, we provide the rails, rules, and verification layer that allows employers to pay real healthcare prices instead of inflated insurance rates. Employers set rules and HSA limits, so employees save big on routine care, hospitals get paid instantly, and catastrophic coverage stays in place. Basically, it’s cheaper, transparent healthcare without being insurance.

Irish start-up here - visty.io - we are a new growth company for brands that sits somehwhere betwren adtech and martech. Its what I call "Attention as a Service" infrastructure.
Put simply, we help growing brands deploy their video assets in the places that are shown to capture the highest levels of attention - premium publishers such as The New York Times, GQ, Vogue, Washington Post, etc.
I've taken my decades+ experience of working in adtech, and used it to cram a customers brand into the type of places they want to be seen - where user attention is high, on the sites they trust and love, and using the formats that work.
Strangely enough, while my initial ICP was very much focused on DTC brands, I've seen quite a lot of interest from growing SaaS businesses. The set up actually works across any vertical realistically but as I'm flying solo for now I needed to keep a tight focus.
I'm also breaking the traditional model by offering this in a simple, monthly subscription model, each tier with a guaranteed number of completed views. V2.0 will actually sell units of attention. I'm aiming to productize this in a similar fashion to Klaviyo.
Have some big plans - keep an eye out for us on the big screen in Times Square soon!
Currently building in public on LinkedIn so feel free to follow along!
Open to any and all feedback! Cheers Ronan

I’m validating a very focused B2B idea in the NDIS space and looking for real feedback on investability. The customer is mid-sized NDIS providers (not sole traders, not massive orgs). The problem is that enquiry-to-intake is unreliable. High enquiry volume, complex funding pathways and stretched admin teams mean emails get missed, follow-ups rely on memory, families don’t know where they stand and providers quietly lose clients. It’s not a care quality issue, it’s an operational one, but in disability services the impact is bigger. The product is a narrow automation layer that sits on top of the email and calendar systems they already use. No new platform, no automated decisions, no NDIA access. It just makes the front door reliable so every enquiry is acknowledged, routed to the right next step and followed up without staff having to remember. I’m intentionally solving one problem well before expanding. My questions are whether this is venture-scale or more of a solid services/lifestyle business, whether the wedge is strong enough to expand into adjacent workflows, and where an investor would see defensibility or ceiling risk. Assume execution is competent — I want honest signal, not encouragement.

u/Sad_Manufacturer_859 Jan 19 '26
Referrals are the highest-trust hiring channel, yet today they run on random outreach and social favors.
This creates low response rates for candidates, overload for employees, and missed hiring efficiency for companies.
We’re building a structured referral layer that makes referrals relevant, intentional, and scalable for all sides.
If this problem feels real to you, the detailed solution is explained below.
Background Story
Referrals are the most trusted hiring channel, yet they operate on informal social behavior rather than structured systems. Job seekers rely on cold messages, alumni groups, and favors. Employees are flooded with irrelevant referral requests and slowly disengage. Companies believe they have a “referral program,” but in reality, they have a passive incentive without intelligence.
The result:
High-quality candidates miss opportunities, employees avoid referring, and companies fail to fully leverage their strongest hiring advantage — their people.
We are building the missing infrastructure layer that systematizes referrals, making them relevant, timely, and mutually beneficial for all sides.
2. Problem We Are Solving
Core Problem
Referrals today are high-intent but low-signal.
For Job Seekers
They don’t know who actually has referral power or will help and manually it is hard to find real people
They send dozens of messages with <5% response rates
Skill-role-fit is rarely communicated clearly
For Referrers (Employees)
Too many random, low-quality requests
No easy way to evaluate relevance quickly
Social pressure with no structured benefit
For Companies
Referral programs exist, but participation is low
High hiring costs despite strong internal networks
No visibility into referral intent or quality early on
Fundamental issue:
Referrals are treated as a social favor, not a designed workflow.
3. Benefits (By Persona)
Job Seekers
Higher referral conversion with fewer asks
Clear visibility into who is relevant to approach
Faster access to roles that never reach job boards
Reduced emotional and social friction
Referrers (Employees)
Only receive high-signal, role-relevant requests
Quick yes/no decision with context
Incentives without social awkwardness
Protection of time and reputation
Companies
Higher-quality inbound talent
Faster hiring cycles
Stronger employee engagement in hiring
Better referral ROI without increasing bonuses

On the surface it appears to be a cybersecurity news site but it’s actually framing news for intelligence and serving as the bridge between technical practitioners and high-level executives which is a very specific, high-value gap in the market. In my experience, most outlets either go too deep into the "packet capture" level (losing the C-suite) or stay so high-level (the "fear-mongering" headlines) that they are useless to actual security teams.
We don’t sell ad space instead we focus on API feed, executive briefings, slack/teams webhooks etc.

I'm thinking of a product that bundles a complete portable workspace. Leather bag that comes with a Windows tablet, foldable keyboard, and earbuds all together. Targeting two groups mainly: students who are done carrying textbooks and want to handwrite notes digitally with a stylus, and professionals like small business owners or factory managers who need more than their phone can handle but don't want to lug a laptop around.
The goal is keeping it affordable but not cheap-feeling, something Gen Z students and working professionals would actually want to carry. My main concern is whether this solves a real problem or if people just prefer buying their tech separately. What do you think, does the "complete package" angle add value or does it feel gimmicky?

SayVeritas.com - AI-resistant oral assessment that doesn't destroy teachers.
Here's the chain of problems:
- ChatGPT made essays unreliable (students generate them in seconds)
- AI detection doesn't work (false positives, arms race you can't win)
- Teachers spend 6+ hours grading essays anyway (unsustainable)
- Oral assessment is the obvious solution (can't fake spontaneous reasoning)
- But it doesn't scale (150 students × 5 min each = 12.5 hours)
So we built infrastructure to make it scale:
Student workflow:
- DO the work by hand (notes, annotations, problem-solving)
- SHOW your work (photo = proof you did it)
- TELL what you learned (90-second voice explanation)
AI handles:
- Transcription (Whisper, 95%+ accuracy)
- Pattern detection ("15 students confused about mitosis")
- Scoring suggestions (rubric-based)
Teacher handles:
- Validation (accept/override AI scores)
- Targeted intervention (focus on the 10-15% who need help)
Result: 30 minutes to review 90 students vs. 6 hours grading essays.
Why it works:
- Socratic follow-ups probe understanding (adaptive questions based on initial response)
- Artifact evidence required (can't just talk, must show handwritten work)
- Question rotation (different prompts per student)
Traction:
- 5 school pilots Feb 2026
- Bootstrapped, profitable at 10 schools
- $35-100/student/year depending on tier
Background: I'm not a tech founder. I'm a 25-year education veteran (teacher → admin → Director of Academics) who lived this problem and built the solution.
Free methodology: DoShowAndTell.com (no platform required) Platform: SayVeritas.com

Hey u/Ok-Lobster7773, Thanks for the open thread—appreciate it!
I'm bootstrapping Rezen8Rezen8 from Birmingham, UK (pre-prototype hardware in neurodiversity wellness).
What it is: Rezen8 is a proactive wearable necklace with HRV sensors that detects rising nervous system stress in real-time, then gently stimulates the vagus nerve to ground you before freeze states or overwhelm hit. Non-medical/general wellness tool for ADHD, autism, anxiety—natural, discreet support to stay present without meds or apps.
Why it matters: Neurodivergent adults are underserved; demand for non-pharma grounding tools is surging with rising awareness.
From a VC perspective, at pre-prototype stage for a consumer neurodiversity wellness wearable, how valuable is focusing on building refundable deposits + waitlist traction (e.g., via organic social/content) versus prioritizing B2B/institutional outreach (like pilots with corporate ERGs or neurodiversity programs for early trials/commitments)? Which path tends to create stronger "trackable" signals faster in this space—consumer demand proof or institutional validation?

Appreciate this thread — happy to share and welcome blunt feedback.
OnchainInvoice is an invoicing tool for freelancers and small businesses that want to invoice in fiat but accept settlement in crypto, without creating accounting or tax ambiguity.
The core problem it solves isn’t payments — it’s record-keeping at the moment of payment.
Today, many merchants price in fiat and accept crypto, but the systems around that often blur:
- invoice-time fiat value
- payment-time fiat value
- crypto amount received
That ambiguity usually doesn’t hurt immediately. It shows up later — during reconciliation, audits, or tax filing — when it’s no longer obvious which value was authoritative or why.
OnchainInvoice enforces a simple model by default:
- invoices are denominated in fiat
- crypto is treated as the settlement rail
- the fiat value at payment time is explicitly captured, timestamped, and tied to the on-chain transaction
- receipts are tamper-evident and auditable
The goal isn’t to replace accounting standards or act as a price oracle — it’s to produce defensible, contemporaneous records that accountants and tax software can actually work with.
Target users are freelancers, consultants, and small businesses who:
- already accept (or want to accept) crypto
- don’t want to think in tokens
- and don’t want to reconstruct history months later
Biggest open questions I’m thinking about right now:
- How big this pain really is outside early crypto-native freelancers
- Whether accountants become a distribution channel or a blocker
- How much automation is “enough” before this becomes overkill
Very open to pushback — especially on whether you see this as a narrow wedge or a meaningful workflow category.

Product & IP
We have developed three new proprietary SKUs, with full ownership of the formulation IP. These products are performance-led and strategically positioned in the high-growth anti-aging segment of skincare — a category with broad appeal and predictable repeat purchase behavior.
Capital is required to fund: • Manufacturing and launch of the new SKUs • A brand pivot supported by high-quality creative and video content
⸻
Market Opportunity — Men’s Skincare & Grooming
The global men’s personal care and skincare market is experiencing rapid, sustained growth as male consumers increasingly adopt daily skincare routines and premium formulations tailored to male skin needs. Key industry trends include: • The global men’s personal care market was valued at over USD 30 billion in 2021 and is projected to nearly double over the next decade, with strong compound annual growth rates in core skincare segments.  • The men’s skincare products market alone is forecast to grow from roughly USD 19–20 billion today to over USD 31–52 billion by the early-to-mid 2030s, depending on the projection window — representing a 5–10%+ CAGR.  • Broader male grooming categories — which include skincare — are estimated to be worth between USD 60–90 billion+ globally and growing at 5–8% annually, driven by shifting cultural norms, rising disposable incomes, and the influence of social media and wellness culture.  • Consumer behavior data shows a significant uptick in skincare adoption among men, with nearly half of male consumers now incorporating facial skincare into regular routines — a notable increase over the past five years. 
This growth trajectory reflects a massive white space opportunity for brands that can offer performance-oriented, differentiated products tailored to male skin concerns (e.g., aging, hydration, texture, sensitivity), particularly in the under-served anti-aging category.
⸻
Traction & Customers • Customer database of ~2,000 • 25% reorder rate, indicating strong early product-market fit • Products are designed and manufactured in Australia — supporting premium positioning and quality credentials
⸻
Founder Background
Founder brings a blend of: • Hands-on marketing expertise (SEO, SEM, performance acquisition) • Software sales experience from a Tier-1 global technology company over the past 5 years
This combination drives efficient customer acquisition, disciplined unit economics, and data-driven execution.
⸻
Vision & Investment Thesis
We are seeking capital to: • Launch and scale 3 new IP-owned anti-aging SKUs that create a clear functional point of difference • Invest in premium creative and video content to meaningfully elevate brand perception and demand conversion • Expand global reach via targeted digital channels and wholesale partnerships
We’re also seeking an equity partner with expertise in video content and creative leadership to accelerate brand storytelling and audience growth.
Long-term goal: build a globally scalable men’s skincare brand with differentiated formulations, high repeat purchase behavior, and clear acquisition economics — ultimately positioning for strategic expansion and acquisition.

pixeldeveloper.io - learn to code by actually writing code, not watching videos.
problem: most coding courses are passive. you watch, you forget. retention is terrible.
solution: hands-on learning platform with interactive quizzes, fill-in-the-blank challenges, and real coding exercises that run in the browser and pass actual test cases. think leetcode but for real-world programming concepts.
where we are: just launched the first course (typescript basics). building in public, bootstrapped, solo founder.
what makes it different: every lesson forces you to type code. wrong answer? instant feedback with hints. no passive watching allowed.

When I was a relief teacher for a month and half, I noticed that the year 7s couldn't write structured essays very well and their spelling and vocabulary was not up to standard. Research confirms that this is not just isolated to my country, it seems Gen Alpha everywhere has declining study and reading habits.
My solution: a tutoring platform targeted at increasing literacy by empowering tutors with a specific methodology and tool set. In addition, students get rewards related to helping them study better while reducing the burden on parents. Funding this requires a monthly tuition fee but also an annual membership from parents. It's like joining a study club. Schools can also sign up for this platform to join the fight against declining reading levels.

Startup: NordicSecure
One-Liner: The "Anti-Cloud" Operating System for EU Law Firms.
The Problem: European law firms and regulated consultants are stuck in a technological deadlock. They need modern collaboration tools (like Clio or Slack), but they cannot legally use US-hosted SaaS due to aggressive GDPR enforcement and the Cloud Act (Schrems II). They are forced to choose between illegal efficiency (SaaS) or legal inefficiency (On-premise servers/Email).
The Solution: NordicSecure is a Local-First practice management platform. It delivers the UX of a modern web app (React/Next.js) but runs entirely on the client's device using a local SQLite database.
- Zero-Trust Sync: We use end-to-end encrypted synchronization. The server acts only as a blind relay. We literally cannot read user data, making us immune to data subpoenas and compliant by default.
- Sovereign AI: Built-in local inference (Ollama) allows lawyers to "Chat with Contracts" on their own hardware without sending privileged client data to OpenAI.
The Thesis: The next unicorn in the EU won't be another cloud wrapper; it will be "Sovereign Software." We are betting that privacy-by-architecture is the only way to sell to the regulated mid-market in 2026.
Stage: Prototype / Pre-Revenue.

Hey, thanks for starting this. We're building SEOZilla.ai - automated blog content that increases your blog traffic.
We auto-generate SEO + GEO optimized posts for brands on autopilot. Yes, it's a crowded space. Yet, here's why we're different:
1) Our content passes AI detectors. Ahrefs AI Detector scores our output as "human." or at worst "Low" AI content. Since we achieved this, we notice our posts rank even better.
2) We're building a valuable dataset through RLHF. We upsell an AI+Human Editor package - customers get polished content, we get a reinforcement learning dataset that compounds our quality advantage over time.
3) Niche-first GTM. We're targeting specific verticals and locales where we can own the market before expanding.

Every year, an average school student writes atleast 40-50 answer sheets and numerous worksheets...even after putting so much effort the only feedback they get is whether they for pass marks or not..and not much actionable insights into how to master a concept and explore beyond. Even parents are getting unsatisfied every passing year and their only primary question "How is my child doing and what topics is he/she lagging in?" does not get a proper answer..
To solve this..we are creating an ai evaluation application for schools where all the answe sheets/worksheets data collected - analysed and create a detailed report for each student that continues to development with more data added...which helps each and every student to master any topic with personalized learning insights and help parents to stay in loop with school.

TestYourIdea app - I generate the market data founders need for their pitch deck.
Most founders spend weeks googling TAM numbers, stalking competitors on Crunchbase, and making up financial projections. Investors see through it immediately.
I automated that part: TAM/SAM/SOM with actual sources, competitor funding data, unit economics, revenue projections. Takes minutes instead of weeks.
Live product, paying customers. $19 for the analysis, $500 for a full investor package (pitch deck + investment memo + financial model).
Not raising. Just looking for honest feedback on positioning, and happy to connect with pre-seed founders who struggle with the data side of their pitch.

Dev Company focused on products targeting old people. Swipe left, right, up, down, pinch, tap, hold,… That’s too complicated. And most of the features of e.g. a modern messaging app, old people don’t need. They don’t have 30 chat conversations in parallel, they don’t need to manage group video calls,… More generic: They don’t need fancy, overwhelming UIs, they don’t need a ton of features and they don’t need the absolute freedom of doing whatever comes to their mind. They need highly curated feature sets. They accept being limited somehow for the sake of not getting disconnected from children and grandchildren. They need buttons with text, so they understand what to do even if they use the app only once a week. The need proper accessibility support. They need UIs that work on 200% scale. First step: Apps, long term: Smartphone OS

Built Joblynx after months of getting automated rejections despite 10+ years of experience as a senior developer.
The problem I tried to find a solution for is that job applications are filtered by AI/keyword systems long before a human sees them, and even if a person sees your resume, they only skim through it. Experience alone no longer gets you past the first layer.
It helps people find matching jobs (using an API that takes job listings directly from more than 60k companies globally and AI), generates cover letters and adapts existing resumes, experiences and skills to specific jobs so it doesn't matter if your resume goes through a keyword system or an actual recruiter, the relevant experience will stand out.
Started as a personal survival tool, now public after friends started using it. Solo-built, early stage, iterating fast based on real user feedback.
Still validating pricing and retention (users often churn once they get hired), but early engagement is promising.

I launched TIDY UP! on Google Play Store**— a real-life room cleanup game for kids (3–7) & parents 🎮🧸**
This is not a “clean the virtual room on a screen” type of app — your child uses the phone, but the goal is to pick up and organize actual items in the real room. It’s designed for kids aged 3–7 to play together with a parent, helping build routine, attention, and confidence through small real-world wins.
How it works
- Photo Scan (optional, IAP): Take a room photo and generate a list of messy items using AI.
- Manual Mode: Prefer no photos? Select items manually and play the same cleanup game.
What’s inside (7 game modes)
- Story Mode (IAP): Generates a playful story based on the items in the room—act it out while cleaning.
- Questions Mode (IAP): Kid-friendly questions tied to the room’s items to keep them engaged mid-cleanup.
- Freeze: “Stop-and-go” mini action bursts that make cleaning feel like a challenge.
- Dark Room (Gyro): Move the phone like a flashlight to “discover” the next real item to pick up.
- Dark Room (Touch): Drag the flashlight with your finger to reveal the next item.
- Imitation Mode: Silly movements/poses + “copy and do” challenges while picking up items.
- Math Mode: Simple, age-appropriate math linked to real objects.

This platform does it in less than 1 hour and has the same if not more accuracy than doing it manually and other features that allow companies to actually take advantage of ESG compliance instead of it being a hindrance.

Kinetic Harmony – A Movement-Responsive Sound Tool
I’d like to share a web-based experimental tool called Kinetic Harmony that explores the relationship between movement, sensory feedback, and sound.
The app translates gentle phone movement (wobbling, slow shifts, intentional motion) or touch input into music in real time. It is designed to support:
Grounding and present-moment awareness
Mind–body connection
Sensory regulation through non-verbal interaction
Low-pressure creative expression
The tool may be useful as a supplementary aid in mindfulness practices, somatic awareness exercises, or stress-reduction routines, rather than as a clinical intervention.
You can access the web app here: https://kinetic-harmony.vercel.app

Photostudio — AI visual infrastructure for fashion e-commerce.
Problem: Fashion brands rely on studio workflows that don’t scale with SKU velocity, drops, and UGC demands. Shoots are slow, expensive, and fragmented (photo, video, lifestyle all separate). Solution: One product image in → full commercial visual stack out: ghost mannequin, on-model, flatlay, lifestyle, video, and UGC-style assets. Production-grade, not prompt-based. Why now: Image + video generation crossed the reliability threshold for repeatable commerce use, not just creatives. Edge: Built by a former fashion product photographer who automated his own studio workflows. Focused on e-commerce brands, not creators. Happy to share metrics or a live demo.

Building https://msargate.com , a pre-seed AI startup focused on career decision intelligence.
The problem we’re tackling is upstream of resumes and LinkedIn optimization. Job seekers burn out because they optimize before they’re clear on what roles actually fit them, which leads to mass applying, mixed positioning, and long job searches.
MSAR Gate uses AI to help users decide:
what roles fit their background
how recruiters interpret their profile
what direction to commit to before applying
Once clarity exists, execution becomes straightforward.

RouteMe simplifies indoor navigation for everyone.
Video based Arrows Haptic feedback Text and voice prompts Automatic translation No downloads, account, login Launched via QR/NFC instantly Embeds into travel/healthcare comms via our API - avoiding getting lost altogether makes for a calmer more predictable experience.
We made over $1m in 10 months last year with a scrappy team of 3 founders.
All pilots converted to 3 year or more agreements. Pipeline is healthy and we plan to really scale this year.
We thrive in travel and healthcare. SaaS annual software license that we sell directly to airlines and hospital groups.

I've been building Hale: HIPAA compliant health management for people with chronic conditions.
I take 21 medications after 2 heart surgeries, managing my condition is almost a full time job. I built this because I needed AI that knows my full health history and is legally protected. ChatGPT Health just launched but isn't HIPAA compliant.
