@shriyash_soni thankfully, someone has finally built this. It’s genuinely important for a specific set of segments in the space. I just hope it doesn’t get flooded with low-quality AI startups.

We built India's own YC directory. Before YC Bangalore & Vibecon — every Indian startup, listed in one place. No gatekeeping. No application. Just builders. → List your startup → Discover who's building what → Connect directly with founders If you're building something in India — you belong here. Launching soon 🇮🇳 @ycombinator @emergentlabs @Razorpay @ZeptoNow @_groww @Meesho_Official @cred @MyNykaa @zomato @Olacabs @PhonePe @slicebank @Khatabook @zerodha @Lenskart_com @getpostman #YCBangalore #Vibecon #IndiaStartups #BuildInIndia

I cracked the code to finding ideal customers on Reddit. Building my free eSignature tool, I stumbled onto something nobody talks about. Instead of posting random content and hoping for the best, I found a way to surface the exact Reddit threads where people are already searching for what you sell. Not random traffic. Buyer intent. So I built a tool that does it for you. Drop in your product URL → it surfaces viral Reddit threads that already rank on Google, tied to real demand. The bonus nobody talks about: Reddit is now one of the top sources for AI-generated answers. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, they all pull from Reddit heavily. More Reddit visibility = better odds showing up in AI answers too. The tool is completely free. Like and reply "REDDIT" and I'll send it your way (please keep DMs open).

@edmundyong What is the market size for such a specific use case? I’m curious to know whether you’re planning to expand beyond it as well, and what your revenue model looks like.

Introducing: Fluently - Accurate Subtitles & Translations for YouTube I watch a lot of foreign YouTube content. Most of it doesn't have good English subs. And I found YouTube's auto-translate/dubbing is inaccurate and unpleasant to use. So I built Fluently, which skips YouTube's caption system entirely. It uses dedicated transcription & translation models to process the video's raw audio, which results in far better accuracy. Plus, you can see both language tracks side by side, and perform Q&A with AI if you are a language learner. Free to try. Would love feedback on UX & accuracy across different languages.

Most consumer brands don’t lose money from ads. They lose it from bad decisions. Pricing. Offers. Discounts. Retention. Lexsis is an AI engine that predicts which decisions will actually drive revenue. Just dropped the demo 👇 cc - @trylexsis

We're looking for more great teams and startups to join Lovable. Many of the people in key roles at Lovable were founders right before joining us. We've built our culture in a way that makes founder-types thrive internally, being able to act autonomously and drive initiatives. If you've built something interesting and want to keep building at scale, reach out to @daniellot_theo.

It’s time AI stopped being a “technical club.” Agree with Paras, it’s mostly people with coding or basic tech skills who truly benefit. But what about the people who keep everything running? Teachers shaping young minds, nurses on overnight shifts, small business owners juggling inventory and cash flow, farmers tracking unpredictable weather, delivery drivers navigating cities in real time… Millions rely on technology every day without needing to understand what’s behind the screen. AI should work for them too: simply, intuitively, and powerfully. Let’s build and push for that future, together.

@reach_vb @gabrielchua @romainhuet We are exclusively focussing on using Codex App, hence the name Codexhead Anonymous. Any tips on how can we make this workshop better? Most of our audience comes from non-tech background, so we plan to focus on helping them get over the hump to kickstart their journey in using Codex App. We got a lot of ideas from our audience on what they want to learn, ranging from 'how do i start building software' to 'how do i organize my life using agentic ai'. Planning to cover a lot of that. If all goes well, we also want to organize a hackathon for the same folks.

👾 Non-technical builders and vibe coders, read this carefully. Who is actually benefiting from AI right now? Mostly the technical people who already have the know-how. And the people building the tools. Everyone else is still stuck trying to figure out where to begin.

If we model AI too closely on humans, replicating not our strengths but also our flaws, how can we expect it to surpass us? Mirroring us and patching weaknesses risks capping machines at our limits. The goal isn’t imitation, but systems that go beyond human constraints.

@cory Would love to work there next semester. I’m currently working at an incubation centre in Mumbai, and this opportunity would be a great transition into early-stage VC. in.linkedin.com/in/khanafan

@yoitsmanan The only real bottleneck will be pricing, nothing else. We can all build and launch the same thing with about a week of non-dedicated effort. That’s the only differentiator. Wishing you luck.
