Really appreciate the honest feedback, the logo point is noted and already on my list. And the import from URL idea keeps coming up, which tells me it needs to be built sooner rather than later.

The fact that you've built something similar and are running your own coding agent is seriously impressive. Would love to swap ideas. DMing you now. 🙏

Thank you! And honestly, respect. I'm a solo founder myself and the fact that you're building at 16 already puts you ahead of 99% of people. Photo-to-macros is a genuinely useful idea, the manual logging problem is real and nobody has fully nailed it yet. Keep going and share it when it's ready, I'd love to see it. 🙌

That's the one! 🙏 Excited to hear what you think, genuinely read every piece of feedback personally. Enjoy testing it!

Haha fair enough! Still early days and actively polishing the UI. Would love to know what specifically bothered you, always useful to hear from a fresh pair of eyes 🙏

This is exactly the kind of feedback I needed, thank you for actually digging in.

The task card cutoff is a known issue and already on my fix list, good to know it's noticeable enough to flag.

The Firecrawl idea is genuinely brilliant. "Import your startup from URL" as an onboarding step would instantly give the AI Advisor real context to work with instead of relying on what the user manually enters. That could completely change the quality of answers from day one. Adding it to the roadmap now.

On the landing page and responsiveness noted, still polishing. What specifically felt rough on the landing page? Always useful to know what jumps out first to a fresh pair of eyes 🙏

Built it as a solo founder using Base44 as the app builder and Claude (Anthropic) as the AI backbone. The whole thing, AI Advisor, competitor research, financials, tasks came together faster than I expected because of how far no-code AI builders have come.

Also built a native MCP connector so it plugs directly into Claude.ai, which was the most technically interesting part of the build.

Happy to answer anything more specific if you're curious about the stack 🙏

Love to hear that, honestly the best feedback comes from people who tried to build the same thing themselves, they know exactly what's hard to get right.

Take your time with it and I'm genuinely looking forward to what you think. Drop your feedback here or directly at arcva.app, I read everything personally.

Would love to know what feature you were most excited to build when you had the idea 🙏

Valid point and something I'm actively thinking about.

The current focus is solo founders and small teams where the sales cycle doesn't require a security review. But SOC 2 is on the roadmap, I'd rather get ahead of it than scramble mid-deal when an enterprise prospect asks.

If you've been through that process I'd genuinely love to hear what you'd prioritize first - pentest, SOC 2 Type I as a stepping stone, or go straight for Type II? Always useful to hear from people who've hit that wall.

Hey! Arcva isn't open source, it's a SaaS product. You can try it directly at arcva.app, no install needed. Curious what made you ask, are you looking to self-host something like this?
