Ask HN: International Student Founder in the UShttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25884142I am currently an international student in the US majoring in CS and minoring in Entrepreneurship. I am currently working on a side-project that allows students find affordable housing and roommates. International students are on a F1 status(which is the student visa for US). However, there are many restrictions that prevents international students from making money on their idea or grabbing good opportunities such as raising funds. Is there any international students who built a startup in the US? What can international students do about this? Please let me know your thoughts.

Show HN: Self-Hosted Social Media Agents with Raspberry Pihttps://www.microphone.computer/A while back I posted about a project I was working on for a real-time voice agent that runs ads on Meta to build conviction and prioritize side gig/business ideas (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48900788); you yammer away and it automates market research, problem statements and hypotheses. I've been working with some folks from HN on the app since then.What we've been focused on building is a modern solo-founder GTM tool -- figuring out how to triangulate aspiration, problems only you can solve, and organic distribution in one solution. So, not building apps; but rather helping you figure out what you like and then connect you with the right people that can help you on your journey and find the communities to help you distribute it.For the latter, I was impressed by the recent Grok bot launch; but didn't want Elon accessing all of our accounts to train on -- so I set-up dockerized social media agents that run at home on a Raspberry Pi. They'll do the same job as Grok for this bu

Show HN: Active Source of Truth for Your Coding Agentshttps://meetless.aiHowdy! Happy Saturday everyone!As a solo founder, I have always tried to maximize my speed by letting coding agents build as much as possible in parallel. However, as an engineer, I don't trust that AI will always make the right decisions and work with the right context. In the past, I always needed to click through my sessions to glance at the AI's output, try to understand what it was doing, and hopefully steer it or stop it in time.As a result, the maximum number of concurrent sessions I could manage at once was only 4. I didn't want to be the bottleneck, so I built Meetless Agent (MLA). It basically does what I had to do manually before:- Monitors the coding agent's tasks and actions to supply it with the correct, up-to-date context.- Continuously reconciles running information (such as provided/tagged documentation, the agent's output, and the agent's decisions) to actively maintain the source of truth at all times.- Keeps track of the current rules for the repo, and if an action

Show HN: Proliferate- open-source, self-hostable Codex for any coding agenthttps://github.com/proliferate-ai/proliferateHi HN- I'm Pablo, the founder of Proliferate (YC S25)!Proliferate (https://github.com/proliferate-ai/proliferate) is an open-source, self-hostable AI IDE that lets you work and automate tasks with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, and Grok in one place.Here's a quick 2m demo of how we use Proliferate to build Proliferate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGNX0oaWmBYI started building Proliferate after my team onboarded to OpenAI Codex. Within days, we were using it for everything: using computer use instead of navigating websites ourselves, having Codex coordinate other agents, and setting up automations for recurring work. We really never needed to leave the desktop app to get work done.If my team’s experience is anything close to representative, a Codex-like app (a horizontal agent with a beautiful UI) is the main interface every company is going to use to get work done. That is perfectly in line with OpenAI’s mission to make Codex the everything app (see: https://news.ycombinator

Show HN: Praxos – team messaging with built-in memoryhttps://www.praxos.ai/Hey HN! What does a regular workflow at a startup look like?Probably like this:> One founder talks to customers> Another founder builds> A customer asks for something. The first founder explains it to the second. The second founder explains it to Claude> Two weeks any one of the founders asks one of the following questions: \* Why are we building it this way? \* What happened here? \* What did we promise ACME we’d do? \* How far along are we on X? > Then you scream on the inside because you have to figure out what happened...Before agents, the person who did one part of the work usually held a mental map. They could share the context with other people. Increasingly, they can’t.Small teams can run far more work in parallel than ever before thanks to AI, but someone now has to connect all that context manually. The reasoning behind one product change might now be scattered across a customer call, two emails, a Slack thread, and four Claude conversations.Praxos is a team messaging app.It

Show HN: AI-Native Accelerator that helps builders make something people wanthttps://foundera.app/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 your feedback so that I can help more people.

Launch HN: Vendo (YC S26) – Let users build features on top of your producthttps://github.com/runvendo/vendoHi HN, we’re Yousef & Nour, founders of Vendo (https://vendo.run). Vendo lets users create new features inside the software they already use. A user describes the dashboard, workflow, or small app they need, and Vendo builds it on top of the product’s existing data, API, and interface.Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdpHehY64lsWe built Vendo because every SaaS eventually faces the same problem: every customer needs something slightly different. One wants a new report and another needs a workflow that only makes sense for their team. These requests either sit on the roadmap, become one-off engineering work, or force the customer into spreadsheets and external tools. We wanted the user to be able to create the missing feature themselves, without leaving the product.Here is how it works:- npx vendo init reads the product's API surface, theme, routes, and more. These are used so that the apps Vendo creates (1) look on-brand and native and (2) have the ability to read data and perform
