YC cheat code

gm legends, happy Wednesday.

Here’s the midweek arsenal: a phone that dares to be transparent instead of blending in; a one-keystroke clip tool that turns any screen into your personal brain dump; and a browser-based video editor you drive by typing your own commands.

Grab your mug, fire up these tools, and own the day.

P.S. Launching soon? We’d love to hear about it → editorial@producthunt.co 🫶

Nothing Phone 3 keeps the quirky see-through back and Glyph lights you love, upgrades to sharper cameras, longer battery life and a snappier processor, all wrapped in that oddly hypnotic design language.

🔥 Our Take: The Nothing phone has stood out in a sea of space grey bricks for a few years now with its quirky design. This third iteration doubles down on the weird see-through vibe and gives you legit camera upgrades, but you’ll still field sideways glances when you pull it out in public, it’s eye-catching but that is part of the charm.

Tailored Labs runs in your browser. Drop in raw footage or record clips, then type instructions like trim dead air, add a lower third or find highlights and watch a rough edit appear.

🔥 Our Take: Video editing used to eat up my weekend, scrubbing through every second. Now I type “trim silence” and get back a rough cut in moments. It still misses a clip now and then, but swapping hours of timeline torture for quick text commands feels like a win.

Lazy 2.0 gives you one keystroke to grab context from any window, email, PDF, tweet or video, and drop it into a live chat where you can riff on your own notes without ever leaving flow.

🔥 Our Take: Quick as it is, Lazy forces you to face your backlog sooner. Some mornings I open the app and find twenty random clips I barely remember grabbing. Still, catching a lightning-fast idea before it vanishes beats scrambling through tabs later.

Mike Stachowiak, a three-time founder and YC alum who backed early bets like Zapier and Clever, jumped into the forums offering free, no-catch pitch-deck feedback for founders gearing up to raise. He’ll tear into your deck’s story from an investor’s POV and in return asks just a few quick questions about your fund-raising wins and pain points. This thread is your chance to get brutal, battle-tested advice straight from someone who’s been both sides of the table.

So the bigger question: when was the last time you let an investor rip apart your slide deck before your real pitch?
