Testing and Evals

Thank you, Ryan and the Lounge team, for the trust.
My goal is to bring local founders, entrepreneurs, and people building with AI together to exchange ideas, share challenges, and build meaningful connections.

I’m preparing our first in-person meetup for 15–30 people, with the date and venue to be announced once confirmed.
Based in Montréal-Nord or the Montréal area? Leave a comment or send me a message if you’d like to join. I’d love to hear what you’re building!

Everyone is racing to add AI to everything.
AI agents. AI wrappers. AI copilots. AI-powered everything.
But here's what I find interesting: two founders can have access to exactly the same models, tools, and APIs, yet one builds something people love while the other builds something nobody uses.

The difference isn't necessarily the technology.
It's understanding people, identifying real problems, and building an experience worth returning to.
We're entering a world where building software is getting easier every month.
So, if everyone can build, what actually separates great founders from everyone else?

I'd love to hear some genuinely unpopular takes.

Hot take: 90% of AI startups are building features, not companies. Better question: If OpenAI, Google, or Anthropic can ship your entire product as a feature tomorrow, what exactly are you building that will survive?

Quick update: AI-Atlas is officially live on Product Hunt today!

Some of you have already followed my journey building it independently, and I genuinely appreciate the feedback I've received here.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the launch, especially whether the product's value and evaluation methodology come across clearly.

If you have a minute, I'd really appreciate your feedback in the Product Hunt discussion. And if you think the project deserves some support, that would mean a lot too.

Yesterday I announced the GSR Network Android app. Then I spent a good chunk of the day watching the download count.
Seven in the first six to eight hours. Ten by late afternoon.
I gave every place I posted it its own link so I could see where downloads came from. X sent zero. Lounge AI sent zero. LinkedIn sent one.

And 10 isn't even 10 people. GitHub counts every time the file gets pulled down, repeats included, and a few of those were me testing it. It can't tell me how many people installed it, how many different people grabbed it, or whether anybody is actually using it.

Part of that is how I shipped it. It's a free direct APK, signed, with the checksum published, but there's no Google Play listing. You tap the link, your phone throws up a security warning, and most folks stop right there. I'd probably stop too.

So here's what I took from yesterday. Putting a launch in front of strangers is not distribution. I knew that already. Yesterday I watched a counter prove it.

The number I care about now is whether a specific person I named opens it. One download from a buyer I can name is worth more to me than 10anonymous ones.…

Hey AI builders,
After using a number of MCP servers on my machine I've realized that I don't need to keep them running always. And I was looking for ways to manage my MCP servers per client app easily. I didn't find exactly what I had in mind, so I've built it. Maybe you'll find it useful also.

It's a tiny macOS utility that shows up in your toolbar. It allows you to enable/disable a specific MCP server for a specific AI client in one click. No need to manually edit the config. which is very convenient.

Check it out and give it a try: github.com/yurist38/macos-mcp-manager
Cheers!

Hi everyone, I’m Haiyun, founder of HPSILab, a live AI-native financial intelligence platform providing real-time market data, APIs, a Python SDK, and MCP integration.

🌐 Website: hpsilab.com/
🤖 Claude Directory: claude.ai/directory/hpsilab

I’m looking for a business-focused co-founder to lead go-to-market, sales, partnerships, and distribution, while I focus on product development and technology.

I’m also open to strategic partnerships, investment, and potential acquisition opportunities.
Beyond HPSILab, I enjoy turning promising ideas into real products through AI, full-stack development, APIs, and automation.

If you have strong business development, sales, or distribution experience and want to build something together, I’d love to connect.

Hi fellow founders!

I'm Muhammad Mamduh Saffin, founder of TGPU Digital Ecosystem and TGPU Gulf Advisory in Malaysia.

I'm currently building GCC Match, an early-stage platform designed to help businesses discover and connect with potential partners between Malaysia and the GCC.

Our biggest challenge now isn't building more features. It's validating demand and attracting genuine business users.

I'd love to learn from founders who have built B2B marketplaces, matching platforms, or cross-border business networks.

Three questions:

1. How did you find your first 10 genuine business users?
2. What worked best for building trust between buyers and suppliers?
3. Would you recommend starting with manual qualification and introductions before scaling automation?

I'm also looking to connect with 2–3 UAE-based founders or business operators who would be open to providing feedback or exploring a small pilot collaboration.

Our platform: match.tgpugulf.com

I'd genuinely appreciate your insights and would be happy to exchange perspectives on the Malaysia–GCC market.

Thank you!

Building a project on GitHub shouldn't require complicated Git commands for every file upload.

That's why I build Treeporter, an open-source tool that lets you upload files, folders and ZIP archives to GitHub directly from your browser.

🎯 The goal: make sending files to GitHub simpler, faster and more accessible.

I develop Treeporter as part of Wiyotl, my independent technology brand.

I'm currently improving the project and would love to hear from developers and builders:

• What would make a tool like this genuinely useful to you?
• What features or pain points should I focus on next?

Try it out and share your feedback:

GitHub: github.com/Wiyotl/Treeporter-main

Live demo: wiyotl.github.io/Treeporter-main/

Simple. Fast. Treeporter.

Hey everyone! 👋
I'm building AHMII LABS, a tech initiative focused on AI-powered products, web applications, automation, developer tools, and cybersecurity solutions.

As I continue building and improving my projects, I want to hear from people outside my own circle. Fresh perspectives can help me identify what works, what needs improvement, and what I should focus on next.

I’ve created a page where you can share your feedback about AHMII LABS.
🔗 Review & Feedback: ahmiilabsreview.edgeone.dev/
If you have a moment, check out AHMII LABS and share your honest thoughts. Whether it's positive feedback or constructive criticism, both are valuable to me.

Thanks to everyone supporting independent builders and early-stage tech projects. Every genuine suggestion helps me improve. 🤝

Built with ambition. Improved through feedback. — AHMII LABS

My background is in banking, data analytics, reporting and operational improvement. After more than a decade working with business processes and data, I founded TechTyra in 2026 to build practical AI tools for small businesses and individuals.

Our approach is simple: if existing software doesn't solve a problem properly, explore building something that does.

What I'm building:

• MoneyRescue: An AI-powered financial assistance tool developed for the DeveloperWeek New York 2026 Hackathon.
• ComplaintMate: Helping consumers prepare, manage and follow up on complaints.
• ReelUnpack: Turning online videos into useful, searchable information.
• ChatPrune: Organising AI conversation histories into useful knowledge. This project has been part of two hackathons.
• Bespoke AI solutions: Exploring workflow automation and practical AI tools for small businesses.

What's working:
AI-assisted development has allowed me to turn ideas into working applications without a traditional development team. I'm learning a lot about product development, testing, integrations and cloud infrastructure along the way.

What I'm looking for:…

Last week, I shared my goal of finding five people to try KlirProspect, a tool designed to help small agencies find local businesses for their outreach.

We’ve recorded activity from four accounts outside our testing team. I’m now confirming whether they belong to four different participants and collecting their feedback.

During each 15-minute guided demo, I want to learn:

• Were the results useful for your prospecting?
• What was difficult or unclear?
• Could you find your saved prospects and follow-up information?
• Would you use KlirProspect again?

If the four accounts belong to four different participants, we’ll need one more agency owner to reach our goal of five guided trials.

If you run a small agency and would like to take part, comment below or send me a message. Your honest feedback will help us understand what’s useful and what needs improvement.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this first step!

Three days ago a cybersecurity professor critiqued my project in public: an agent-security audit log is self-attestation — the system investigating itself writes its own evidence. He was right. As of tonight it's closed.

Chain heads are now anchored to custody sinks the system can append to but never rewrite — a git repo plus RFC 3161 timestamps — with verification that re-walks the store against the anchors without trusting the system. A rewrite-and-rehash attack (modify a record, recompute every hash consistently so the internal verifier passes green) is caught by the external anchors as a contradiction.

That exact attack is executed by CI, and the run records are frozen in the repo. Critique, design, implementation, attack, detection — all public, all this week.

If governance for autonomous agents is your lane, I'm looking for design partners who'll try to break it.

I'm building NEX-AI at AHMII Labs — a personal AI assistant project focused on making AI more useful beyond ordinary conversations.

My vision is to bring together AI assistance, task-oriented agents, automation, and persistent memory in one connected experience.

I'm especially interested in making AI systems more reliable: remembering useful context, handling tasks carefully, and knowing when to ask for clarification instead of guessing.

NEX-AI is an ongoing project, and I'm continuing to develop and improve it step by step. Building in public helps me learn from other developers, founders, and AI enthusiasts along the way.

I'd love your feedback: What capability would make a personal AI assistant genuinely useful in your daily workflow?
