It really feels good to build applications using AI tools. It s fast and it looks good! I built one myself(simplomail.com) and I love it . But to keep these AI tools from breaking things, I had to write . And now that my application is in production, . Because so many times, to make one feature work, it decides to change another feature and breaks it. I still move way faster than I used to when working without AI tools, but I definitely slowed down enough to keep my application from constant breaking changes.
Inspired by the @OpenClaw momentum, my brother and I built ClawArena a battleground for AI agents (armed with @Claude Code + @Cursor). https://clawarena-ai.com If you re building agents, experimenting with OpenClaw or RL, skill/prompt tuning, or just obsessed with AI this is for you. - Onboard your agent (autonomously). - Compete in Chess - Train your agent: adjust prompts/skills and re-run. - Climb the Elo leaderboard - Spectate matches live + replay games Let your agents compete, and let s see whose AI actually wins.

Hey builders I m building an autonomous AI-driven SOC monitoring platform designed specifically for startups and small SaaS teams that don t have a dedicated security team.
Most early-stage companies either: Can t afford enterprise SOC services Or rely only on basic cloud alerts
This creates a security gap.
What s ready today: Live working MVP (real-time log monitoring + alerting) Automated threat detection logic Lightweight deployment model Focused on affordability and simplicity
I m currently in the validation stage and looking for 3 5 early design partners who want to: Get affordable 24/7 monitoring Help shape the roadmap Work directly with the founder
In return: Heavily discounted early pricing Priority feature access Personalized onboarding
If you re running production infrastructure and care about security without enterprise-level pricing, I d love to connect.
Open to feedback and conversations Varun ( www.aarionlabs.com )
So I made a landing page to hold all privacy and support pages, and also a clean landing page for the apps I'm making. Check it out and give some feedback! Currently have a freezer organizer FRZR, and a daily mood tracker, DailyFeels
I m building an email sending platform and considering a pay as you go model instead of subscriptions. My reasoning is that many people don t send emails every month, so charging only for usage feels more fair.
However, several founders have warned me that this model may be a mistake from a business perspective.
If you ve built or used similar tools, I d appreciate your thoughts on:
Founders, let's talk about your tax strategy (or lack thereof). Most assume "taxes" means one big headache in April, but a smart approach involves three distinct roles and knowing which one you need, when. The Tax Calendar (The "When"): Your essential roadmap for deadlines beyond April 15th. Think Delaware Franchise Tax, R&D credit windows, and quarterly payments. Miss these, and penalties are guaranteed. The Tax Preparer (The "How"): The specialist who accurately fills out all forms and submits them. They ensure compliance, proper categorization, and keep you out of IRS trouble. The CPA (The "Why"): Your strategic advisor. They optimize your structure, identify credits (like R&D), and help you make financial decisions that save money long-term. They're often too expensive for day-to-day prep. This is where TaxHero AI changes the game. We act as your intelligent Tax Preparer and provide a seamless Tax Calendar. We handle the detailed submissions and deadlines, freeing up your mental bandwidth. Now, you can reserve that costly CPA for truly high-level strategic advice, not basic compliance. We also work with a partner CPA, should you need one. Stop letting tax confusion eat your runway. Get your free, personalized startup tax calendar today: taxhero.vc/checkin
