We recently launched CapitalReach.ai - https://capitalreach.ai We built it to make fundraising easier for founders, it uses AI to help you:

1. Find and match with the right investors automatically 2. Personalize and automate outreach campaigns 3. Track investor responses and manage your fundraising pipeline in one place

The goal isn’t to replace the hustle, just to remove the repetitive parts so founders can focus on building relationships.

Would love honest feedback from fellow founders and investors here:

Does this solve a real pain point for you?

What feels missing or unnecessary?

How do you currently manage investor outreach today?

A mechanical keyboard with too many fancy switches and lights. I thought it would make coding feel better, but it just ended up being noisy and distracting. I went back to a simple, quiet one and realized comfort matters way more than looks.

I wouldn’t recommend it at that age. ChatGPT can sound confident even when it’s wrong, and kids might take answers at face value without questioning them.

It’s also easy to get distracted or rely on it too much instead of developing real problem-solving skills. Better to wait until they’re a bit older and can use it critically with proper context.

Totally fair concern. Sharing code publicly can feel risky, but it’s also one of the best ways to learn and build credibility. If plagiarism worries you, start by open-sourcing smaller or older projects, or parts of a larger one that aren’t critical.

People rarely gain much from just copying code; what stands out is your process, documentation, and improvement over time. Eventually, the benefits of visibility usually outweigh the risks.

Exactly. Early execution speaks volumes - even a rough prototype shows they’re serious and capable of turning ideas into reality.

How long until LLMs learn not to use em-dashes? Literally 100% of the comments on this account have an em-dash in them.

Absolutely. A tangible product, even if rough, shows execution and commitment. Ideas are easy -prototypes prove there’s real traction.

This looks great - Trello’s 1D limitation always felt constraining. Love the “row dimension” concept and the minimalist stack. Please share when it’s live - would love to try it out early!

Will do!

FWIW, multicardz is actually n-dimensional. Not that many people will use it.

Whereas yours is a redundant reflection of a reflection. As LLM-composed text often tends to be. Is there even a human behind this post or is it all autonomous already?

It's pretty damn absurd for a person to reach out for real human-to-human communication on HN only to set up a Rogerian-level bot for autoresponses.

It's disappointing to see their responses. All obviously LLM. I'm assuming there's a real person behind the original post as that doesn't feel like LLM and maybe they're just not sure how to respond.

For the OP, if you're truly asking the question, respond using your own words. The LLM responses are devoid of any value.

“Solo, together” - I really like that framing. It captures the best of both worlds: independence without isolation. It’s almost like the modern-day version of guilds — individual creators building side by side.

Is this a real question and you are using AI just for the comments or even the post was AI-generated? Are you a bot or someone that used AI to "proofread"?

If you are feeling lonely, using AI in place of genuinely engaging with people won't help.
