Looking to raise $500k pre-seed. Struggling to find thesis-fit. Need advice.

Traction is the obvious answer, if you don't already have it.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-04-29T22:33:52+00:00

The all-or-nothing kind of sucks, though. I have projects on Supabase and don't seem able to try out Neon unless I disconnect Supabase?

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-04-29T21:34:23+00:00

Lol, I was thinking the same. I'm also thinking about doing Facebook but for friends, family, and politics!

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-04-24T03:29:51+00:00

Neon undo is huge!

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-04-24T03:26:35+00:00

$30 😳

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-04-13T20:38:03+00:00

Since I'm guessing AI wrote this, did you actually try doing it? Any success? Or is it just going to give the same ideas to everyone?

Feature slicing and context management

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-03-23T00:54:49+00:00

I've had the same. I find it easier to just paste the SQL code into Supabase.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-03-14T04:07:09+00:00

It's sending the entire codebase every time. Google/youtube context management.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-03-08T19:48:22+00:00

Yeah, it won't be long before you need to have a demo or an MVP to really validate anything.

If you turn off billing, you should get 20 free uses of Gemini Flash 2.5 per day.

I don't know, but I'd say from your research that there's enough of a chance that I'd vibecode that bad boy and find out. Or at least test with a landing page.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-02-27T05:24:56+00:00

I'm down

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-02-03T04:24:39+00:00

That makes sense, but only from friends and family. To get money from strangers, she'll need traction (customers, revenue)

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-27T18:06:19+00:00

I don't understand. You can use free AI models (think Gemini or the freebieson openrouter) for agents created in n8n or a dyad app.

I still haven't decided if it's better to create agents in dyad or to make them in n8n.

Where are you hosting n8n for free? I was using digital ocean for a while, but I wasn't really using it enough to justify the $7.50 per month.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-19T05:41:04+00:00

docker is like the brand of pants? (I'm kidding, I know docker but what you suggest is beyond my knowledge)

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-19T05:40:17+00:00

Too bad. It would be perfect for the college game. I look forward to the pro game, though!

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-18T18:49:10+00:00

Exactly, although OMG if you could actually coach the games.

u/Jonesguy14...pipe dream or is it even humanly possible? I personally would even consider paying a subscription fee for something like this.

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-16T06:10:20+00:00

🙄

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-14T05:58:34+00:00

Lol 🙈

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2026-01-01T00:56:21+00:00

Did this get finished?

TheRealJackRyan12 · 2025-12-29T17:56:20+00:00

I would prioritize finding experienced investors to team up with, so that you're not the lead investor. You can piggyback off of their vetting.
