We made a thing today 👉 ancher.ai
I've spent 15 years in media—making stories go viral @HuffPost @YahooNews , and turning @newsbreakApp into America's most popular news app. I've worked through generations of algorithms to help content find people.
Things changed. Thanks to AI, today finding something new has never been easier. The hardest thing right now, ironically, is to find something you've already found. What?!
@OpenAI @claudeai know almost everything—except what you saw on X or YouTube last week. Where the hell did it go?
@mem0ai @supermemory call it a “memory layer.” It's a chat log—full of things I asked a bot to do, not the things I found worth keeping.
We believe the missing piece is everything that happened BEFORE THE PROMPT. What you read, watched, and chose to keep.
Later, just ask ChatGPT/Claude or whatever you use: "What was that thing about...?" Get back the exact sentence. The exact moment in the video. With the source.
Try Ancher 👉 ancher.ai
GStack is a god-send for non-technical builders.
One week in, I shipped Gmail integration, document insights, and rolled out agent prototypes that had been sitting in my Claude Cowork for MONTHS.
My technical co-founder reviewed the work. He wasn't expecting to be impressed, but he was. Didn't take him long to approve it either.
THANK YOU @garrytan and all the contributors. You handed non-technical founders a real superpower.
As one of the early accountant partners working with Kick, we’re excited to see the Kick × FreshBooks partnership officially go live! 🚀

My 4-yo built a story book app using @Base44. Hope this video brings a smile to your face.😊 youtube.com/watch?v=a3PfwUF7…
I made a little activity dice for my kids.
Roll it and it tells them what to do for the next 30 min.
No arguing needed here, I am not the dice. 🎲
Made it public in case it saves another parent: kidsfun.getgears.ai/

🚀 Today we’re launching the @collov_ai Design Center —the world’s first interior design AI agent built for #realestate.
Not a tool.
Not a filter.
An AI agent that understands space, style, and intent.
Are you a founder looking for a wholesome CPA experience for 2026? Join the 20 founders who switched to us this week on our latest OS! 🎉
What they love: fast quote turnaround, real-time project updates, reminders on compliance due dates. Full visibility, zero guessing game.
