New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Find AI – Perplexity Meets LinkedIn

Show HN: Find AI – Perplexity Meets LinkedIn
16 by philip1209 | 10 comments on Hacker News.
As a founder, finding early customers is always a challenge. I'd come up with specific guesses for people to talk to - such "VCs that used to be startup founders" or "Former lawyers who are now CTOs." Running those types of searches typically involves opening dozens of LinkedIn profiles in tabs, and looking at them one-by-one. And, it turns out that going through LinkedIn profiles one-by-one is a daily job for many people. I started building Find AI to make it easier to search for people. I initially started just having GPT review people's LinkedIn profiles and websites, but it cost thousands of dollars per search (!). The product we're launching today can now run the same searches in seconds for pennies. Find AI is Perplexity-style search over LinkedIn-type data. Ask vague questions, and the AI will go find and analyze people to get you matches. The results are really impressive - here are some questions I've used: - Find potential future founders by looking for tech company PMs who previously started a company - Find potential chief science officers by looking for PhDs with industry experience who now work at a startup but have never founded a company before - Find other founders who have a dog and might want my vet app product The database currently consists of tech companies and people, but we're working to scale up to more people. The data is all first-party and retrieved from public sources. Our first customers have been VCs, who are using Find AI to keep track of new AI companies. We just launched email alerts on searches, so you can get updates as new companies match your criteria. Try it out and let me know what you think.

Show HN: Flowery – Vocabulary builder powered by LLM and spaced repetition
12 by the_florist | 8 comments on Hacker News.
Dear hackers: Whether English is your first or nth natural language, you may be familiar with this vexing experience: You encounter a flowery word in a book, podcast, or HN comment; you endeavor to memorize it to hone your speech and writing; you purge it from your synapses by the next day. Flowery ( https://flowery.app ) streamlines vocabulary building by: • Rendering a typographically pristine Oxford dictionary and thesaurus. • Conjuring up the stochastic parrot to eliminate the tedium of flashcard creation. • Scheduling the flashcards with a spaced repetition algorithm. About the tech stack: The server is built on Rust, Axum, and PostgreSQL. The client is built on Google’s Lit. We are betting the farm on the web—you won’t find Flowery on any app store. We have gone to great lengths to polish UX, especially on iOS where we rolled our own virtual keyboard, textboxes, and text selection. We strive to make Flowery an exemplar of the quasi-native web app. Non-obvious features to try: • “Add to Home Screen” on iOS. • “Add to Dock” on macOS Sonoma. • Install on Android and desktop Chrome. • Append an ellipsis to search by prefix. • Touch a flashcard’s blank for a hint. • Keyboard navigation inspired by the one true editor. Give it a whorl [sic] and share your thoughts! Florally yours, The Florist
