Show HN: Open-source Deep Research across workplace applicationshttps://github.com/onyx-dot-app/onyxI’ve been using deep research on OpenAI and Perplexity and it’s been just amazing at gathering data across a lot of related and chained searches. Just earlier today, I asked “What are some marquee tech companies / hot startups (not including the giants like FAAMG, Samsung, Nvidia etc.)”. It’s a pretty involved question and looking up “marquee tech startups” or "hot tech startups" on Google gave me nothing useful. Deep research on both ChatGPT and Perplexity gave really high quality responses with ChatGPT siding on slightly larger scaleups and Perplexity siding more on up and coming companies.Given how useful AI research agents are across the internet, we decided to build an open-source equivalent for the workplace since a ton of questions at work also cannot be easily resolved with a single search. Onyx supports deep research connected to company applications like Google Drive, Salesforce, Sharepoint, GitHub, Slack, and 30+ others.For example, an engineer may want to know “What’s happe

Aries could be 'Unity for fintech'https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43108102Just found this super interesting project called Aries Engine. They're pitching themselves as the Unity/Unreal of fintech, which caught my attention. The idea makes sense - before Unreal, game devs would burn cash just building physics engines before touching actual gameplay. Similarly, fintech startups often die dealing with:Regulatory compliance Market data fees Infrastructure/broker-dealer setup They just got SEC and FINRA (FINRA stands for Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. It's a private, non-governmental organization that regulates the U.S. securities industry) approval and are launching an open development platform that supposedly handles a lot of this. They have built two reference apps they're open-sourcing:An infinite canvas trading platform (widgets + TradingView/Discord integration) Mobile trading app Tech stack includes the usual suspects: commission-free trading APIs, options chain data, real-time feeds, etc. Team apparently built APIs for major brokerages before.Th

Offering pro bono software help (Kiwi developer living in Latam)https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42318258Hey HN,I'm a software developer from New Zealand, recently relocated to São Paulo (Brazil), where I'll be based indefinitely -- at least until January.I've spent most of the last year working full-time as a founding developer at a high-growth startup, so I'm taking a break before my next full-time gig.As a result, I have a lot of free time, and I want to use it to broaden my skills and help people I usually wouldn’t.So, I’m keen to get involved in anything with an cool, experimental or socially-beneficial angle.Non-profit/open-source is preferred, but I’m also happy to help with people’s sidegigs or early-stage startups.I’m looking for diversity — I want to do a bunch of small hackathon-style projects, quick fixes, etc.Does anyone have (or know someone who has) a project that I could help with?I'm good at most technical things:- Websites incl. basic SEO/SMO- Shell scripts and automation- DNS & domain management- Proofs of concept and MVPs- Technical writing incl. tutorials & translatio

Show HN: Rankai – Automated SEO with AIhttps://rankai.ai/Hey HN, we are building Rankai (https://www.rankai.ai), an AI agent that pushes SEO blogs and code fixes automatically to your site.My teammate previously scaled a product to 4M users via organic traffic and SEO. And we understood the importance of driving SEO traffic for small businesses. But after we talked to a lot of small businesses and startups, we realized that majority are not doing SEO at all. For them, learning and doing SEO weekly is too time-consuming, and no way they'd hire an agency for $4k+.So we tried to automate each step of SEO process in an agentic way using LLM. How it works: 1. Crawl through website pages to understand the business 2. Suggest SEO code fixes based on Google SEO Guide 3. Research target keywords tailored to the business 4. Crafts keyword-optimized SEO content 5. Publishes the code changes and blogs to the website via CMSGetting the blogs written correctly with the right sources and visuals is the hardest part. And tbh the current version isn't ready

Launch HN: GPT Driver (YC S21) – End-to-end app testing in natural languagehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41924787Hey HN, we are Chris and Chris from MobileBoost (https://mobileboost.io/). We’re building GPT Driver, an AI-native approach to create and execute end-to-end (E2E) tests on mobile applications. Our solution allows teams to define tests in natural language and prevents test flakiness by taking a visual approach paired with LLM (Large Language Model) reasoning. This helps achieve E2E test coverage with a fraction of the usual effort.You can watch a brief product walkthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-Ge2fqdlxcIn terms of trying the product out: since the service is resource-intensive (we provide hosted virtual/real phone instances), we don't currently have a playground available. However, you can see some examples here https://mobileboost.io/showcases and book a demo of GPT Driver testing your app through our website.Why we built this: working at previous startups and scaleups, we saw how as app teams grew, QA teams would struggle to ensure everything was still working.

Typical Startup Mistakes – A YC-Collectionhttps://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1R4Ze7qKB5sNO1olteAPOzYnqgbAlfRvXOFLsTCQ1Ksk/editHi HN,I was the technical co-founder of a couple of startups that showed early promise but didn’t ultimately succeed. After my last attempt, I started digging into the reasons why, and found that YC pretty much has all the advice I wish I had from the start.One thing that really stood out was their list of “What not to do as a startup” (aka “Typical Startup Mistakes”). It’s a goldmine of advice that could have saved me a lot of headaches.I’ve put these insights together in a presentation and thought this would be the right place to share them.--- For convenience, I’ve added the presentation content as text below. ---Y Combinator Advice Authors - Michael Seibel (YC Partner and Managing Director) - Paul Graham (YC Co-Founder) - Jessica Livingston (YC Co-Founder) - Dalton Caldwell (YC Partner) - Kat Manalac (YC Partner) Definition of a Startup - "A startup is a temporary organization in search of a scalable, repeatable, profitable business model."

Seeking Feedback: A Platform to Discover Indie Hackers Building in Publichttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41755036Hi HN,Over the last two years, I’ve been working hard to build my career in web development. I landed a number of positions at agencies and startups, but I quickly realized that working in those environments has its limits. In my efforts to become economically independent, I started looking at people who were already doing what I aspired to—indie hackers and solopreneurs building their own projects.What I noticed is that success often comes from solving a real problem that people have. In my own search to find a problem I could solve, I realized I had one right in front of me: I needed a place where I could easily find examples of indie hackers who were documenting their successes, failures, and personal journeys as they build products, apps, and businesses. So, I took it upon myself to start collecting these links.After curating over 350 URLs, I now have a comprehensive list of indie hacker websites and blogs where creators share their personal journeys. Some of these sites focus on p

Ask HN: Is It Time to Retire Open API Spec for JSON API?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41487501Hello HN, I am planning to develop a new API Specification format that’s tailored for code generation and schema first design because I find Open API Spec and the surrounding toolchains frustrating to work with.I am seeing a lot of new startups trying to solve existing problems surrounding Open API Spec. Speakeasy, Fern, and Liblab are all trying to generate state-of-the-art client SDK using Open API Spec.I want to take a different approach. I believe the reason why the experience surrounding the Open API toolchain is subpar is because Open API Spec is designed to be an API Documentation format, not for code generations.I build Json APIs mostly. I need a quick and easy way to write a spec for my APIs, and generate server request/response models and http clients to get end-to-end type safety across my services. If I can get API documentation out of this process, even better.Instead, doing what is supposed to be simple proves to be nearly impossible with Open API Spec.First, I have to st

Ask HN: Looking for advice on going back to schoolhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41183337M28, Software Engineer with 3.5 years of experience, working full-time in a third-party software house (consultancy) in Italy. My long-term goal is to become a tech entrepreneur, possibly in the startup landscape. My short-to-medium goal is to enter the internal job market (remotely or by relocating), ideally in an early startup or scale-up to gain insights from the inside. However, I’m feeling stagnated: my positioning isn’t great and my professional network is minimal.In retrospect, I am trying to understand my next move, and an alternative that came to mind is going back to school. I’m considering joining a 1-year Master’s program (or similar) in a European tech hub, which I believe would be beneficial in terms of networking and positioning, more than the hard skills acquired. I have a Master’s in Computer Engineering, so I would be more interested in something related to entrepreneurship or startups. I don’t feel an MBA would cover my interests, but it could be good for networking.

Ask HN: Before launch – everybody says "dont connect the trading engine" – why?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40552021Hi HN Community,during the last couple of weeks i spend a lot of time on building a fully automated trading engine. Some kind of "disclaimer": im now in the financial space since ~13 years, working for startups, creating new banks and working for them.While i'm not an "equity guy", i thought there should be some potential when playing around with some of the data feeds: it should be possible to build a fully automated bot, which is just a simple trend-following model and the system should just jump on running trends on whatever mega-corp stock, go with them some days and then exiting.So i started to build an engine which contains all the things i learnt during this interesting journey: the system reacts dynamicly depending on different market structures, it also integrates events (like earnings dates etc), it goes long and short, it captures trends for only 2 - 3 days sometimes.Now, im that convinced that this application should work under real market conditions; during development, i

Ask HN: Idea Validationhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40314582Disclaimer - the goal isn't to build a fully fledged company from this. Rather build a project that developers/startups will find useful as well as generate some income for myself.I’m working on a project to streamline the setup of tech stacks for startups. There are countless free repos on GitHub designed to help startups hit the ground running, but they usually just give you the code, leaving a lot of configuration work to be done. My solution is different: I want to offer a unified platform that integrates with a range of 3rd-party vendors and automatically sets up their cloud environments using API keys or OAuth.The Vision: In my dashboard, users will provide the necessary API keys, and we'll take care of the rest, automatically configuring and deploying the entire tech stack. At the end of the process, they'll have a backend and frontend deployed on AWS, a working RDS, and everything fully terraformed.

Show HN: A self-published art book about Google's first 25 yearshttps://www.damaia.com/googleThis took me 3 years to finish. (It is 100% self-published, not endorsed by Google.)So… I wrote a book. It’s a different book with a unique approach. It’s not a novel or a technical book. It’s a biography, a company’s biography. My hope is that it serves two purposes: to inspire founders and to captivate interior designers.It all started three years ago. My wife and I were discussing interior design for our living room and she brought up what beautiful coffee table books should we have. After looking at her favorites I realized there’s nothing like this for tech startups. Digital products are intangible, how cool would it be to make them tangible and a beautiful art/decor book for your home office or living room?This idea of consolidating my particular interests with my wife’s decorative goals got stuck in the back of my head for a while. I searched and searched. I could only find these kinds of books related to design, architecture, fashion, or travel. Nothing about tech startups. The

Show HN: ChatGPT taught me how to code – I made a daily movie song guessing gamehttps://www.needledrop.meBackstory: I'm a product designer who's mostly worked for startups and now big tech, and I haven't really touched html/css for nearly a decade. I've worked closely with engineers my entire career but never really rolled the sleeves up and dived into a scripting language. I'd seen some engineers playing around with CodeGPT over a year ago when it launched–we huddled around a screen and tried to decide how quickly our jobs would be replaced by this new technology. At the time, we weren’t in any real danger, but I caught a glimpse of how well it understood prompts and stubbed out large amounts of code.For the past four or five years, I've played a hacky trivia game with family and friends where I play a song, and they have to guess the movie that features the song; Guess the Needle Drop. After many passionate debates and over-the-top celebrations fueled by my generation’s nostalgia for popular classic songs and films, people often told me that I needed to “build an app for this.”I started
