🚀 AI tools for Startup founders and indie hackers

Ship a product, learn what users do, and support them, without a team. This is the smallest stack that covers all three.

  1. 1

    Lovable

    Builds a working web app from a description, so you can test an idea in days

    How to start: Describe the core screen and the one job it must do; ship that to 10 users before adding features.

  2. 2

    PostHog

    Shows what users actually do: analytics, session replays and feature flags

    How to start: Add the snippet, then watch 10 session replays a week to find where people get stuck.

    Crisp ● Live

    Live chat and a shared inbox to support users, with AI answers

    How to start: Put the chat on your app and answer every early user yourself; it is your best research.
