Show HN: A tool for services businesses to improve their customer experiencehttps://sashy.ai/demoI took a 9-week Data Science bootcamp last year, having previously had no formal software development education. My previous jobs had been mechanical product development and business development.During the course, I came up with the idea to extract valuable information from natural language. Online reviews seemed like a good place to start.Unlike other platforms that pass reviews to an LLM and get it to output the sentiment, I came up with a formula for calculating how much each individual review comment affects the business's overall Google rating (see Reviews page of the demo).The 'impact' values are then added up to tell business owners where they are doing well/poorly in terms of customer experience and suggests prioritised improvement actions (see Actions on Dashboard page) so that they know where to focus their attention.So far, 25+ businesses are using the platform, mainly restaurants and food & beverage consultancies, but also cleaning services, bakeries.I built the product mysJul 1, 2025 4:41 PM

MVP in 15 days and why strangers became angelshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44402928How we leveraged Events, LinkedIn, Open-source, free accounts. With 0 Strategy. Just plain curiosity to learn & solve a problem.Curiosity > StrategyWe didn't know words MVP, pitchdeck nor about fundraise, co-founder. Startups, VC, angels world was alien to me....So here's how we started. We would ping strangers on LinkedIn & events that I joined. I even spent Indian Rupees 1L ($4900 in PPP terms) on paid events/niche trainings.I’ve never hesitated to spend on my Curiosity. It pays back in long run.We helped strangers without expectations. Still ppl won't respond... I wondered why? These people posted they needed help.But this pain paid back in long run. You learn this is how the world works. You reach 20 — if 2-5 respond, you're lucky.Deal that crashedI helped 1 wanna-be US VC raising $100M fund, 2 wanna-be startups & 2 folks with overlap to our idea. Since we weren't sure about any idea — VC thing looked exciting.We helped with what we know best — tech, connects — without even knowingJun 28, 2025 7:45 AM

Show HN: Cutmuse – AI tool for haircut recommendations by face shapehttps://www.cutmuse.com/Hi HN,A few months ago, I started building Cutmuse after hearing the same thing over and over from friends and family:“I never know what haircut suits me.”The idea was to create a tool that uses AI and facial analysis to recommend personalized haircuts, hair colors, and even glasses based on each user’s unique features.You upload a photo (no login required or payment for the free version), and within minutes get a custom style report that includes:Haircuts that fit your face shapeHair color suggestions based on your skin toneEyewear styles that match your proportionsAnd optional grooming/skincare tipsThis isn't like Instagram filters or beauty apps that overlay random looks. What makes Cutmuse different is the depth of the analysis. It applies real visagism principles — a method used in professional image consulting — combined with facial landmark detection and color analysis to give you results that are not just aesthetic, but structured.We're currently live with users in 10+ countrieJun 22, 2025 4:56 AM

Show HN: MyLineArts – Turn Photos into Bobbie Goods-Style Line Art for Paintinghttps://mylinearts.comHey HN, I built MyLineArts (mylinearts.com) for anyone who wants to paint their own art but needs a clean, inspiring starting point. It’s a simple web app that takes any photo you upload—your kid’s drawing, a family portrait, a cool landscape—and transforms it into a minimalist, Bobbie Goods-style line art outline, ready for you to paint or color by hand.I love the flowing, single-line vibe of Bobbie Goods but found it tricky to create those outlines without pro-level art skills. MyLineArts does the work for you: upload a photo, adjust line style or detail if you like, and download a crisp PNG outline in seconds. It’s about giving you a canvas to make something uniquely yours with paints, markers, or crayons.You can:Turn your child’s sketch into a paintable masterpieceConvert a favorite photo into a fun coloring projectDownload a PNG ready to print and paintI’ve been tweaking this for months and finally got it ready to share.

Show HN: I made SEO backlink exchange platform using vector embeddingshttps://www.babylovegrowth.ai/Hey HN,I’m a solopreneur and have been in the SaaS space for the past 3 years. My last three startups failed, and a common challenge in all of them was figuring out how to reach my audience. SEO always seemed like the answer, but I didn’t know where to start. It felt overwhelming...Soo many technical terms like keyword research, clustering, SERP, semantics, topical authority… I could go on.That’s where my idea for my next startup came from -> building SEO tool which runs on auto-pilot. The complexity of SEO is hidden behind a simple UI and everything happens automatically behind the scene, even publishing and backlink exchange! I have been working on it for the past 8 months and already have 500+ registered users (not all paying ofc) (mainly got them through reddit)My biggest bet (and competitor differentiator) is the ABC backlink exchange platform we just launched. With it, we are getting our customers 4-7 backlinks per month, naturally placed within articles. No more paying for backlJun 16, 2025 7:48 AM

Launch HN: BitBoard (YC P25) – AI agents for healthcare back-officeshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44237769Hi HN! We’re Connor and Ambar, and we’re working on BitBoard (https://bitboard.work). We build AI agents that handle repetitive administrative tasks in healthcare clinics like filling out intake forms, prepping charts, or managing referrals.We were early employees at Forward, which provided primary care across the US. To scale this, we relied on thousands of remote contractors to do repetitive administrative work like reconciling patient records, and scheduling follow-ups based on care plans. It was a huge bottleneck—expensive, error-prone, and always pulling attention away from clinical care. Our software solutions were always too brittle, never managing to handle the variance of clinical data we oversaw.AI, when applied well, is capable of performing a lot of the tasks we manually did. So we decided to take another crack at the problem by building today what we would have liked to have back then, and to help clinics use it.Clinics send us their SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures—forJun 10, 2025 3:09 PM

When a Giant Sells You a Ghosthttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44050279In today’s tech-driven economy, high-performance computing systems are the beating heart of innovation — from life sciences to automotive AI. Yet behind the polished marketing campaigns of some major global suppliers, there lies a darker and more troubling reality.A small British innovation company recently found itself in an impossible position.They had entered into what appeared to be a promising deal with the UK subsidiary of a large US-based enterprise technology manufacturer — a household name. The agreement involved financing the acquisition of a specialised high-performance server, sold as new, state-of-the-art, and mission-ready.What they received was a system that, within days of installation, failed to operate as advertised. Investigations revealed indications that the equipment had been previously used, and internal communications suggested that even the supplier’s own staff were aware of problems.But here’s the true outrage: the financing contract — designed by the supplierMay 21, 2025 11:22 AM

Feedback on Tool I Created?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43871726Hey- I've been working on a minimalist tool called QuickPoint — it’s a minimal tool for quick text-first creation and sharing structured thoughtshttps://quickpoint.meBut rather than push a vision, I’m here to learn what people actually need. I built a rough prototype and are watching closely how (or if) people use it.I’d love your honest feedback: Please feel free to tinker about- and say whatever comes to mind. If you need to structure your feedback - I put some questions below. However- I'd rather just hear anything you have to say.Does it feel like it solves anything you’d do in real life? What’s your first instinct about what this tool is for? What’s good and what's missing or broken in the concept itself?Not trying to pitch- just trying to listen.
