AskIndra is live today — early experiment in environmental decision support
Hi Product Hunt 👋 Sharing a quick self-promo post for a project we launched today. AskIndra is an early experiment in translating environmental data (air quality, weather, local conditions) into clear, everyday guidance rather than dashboards and numeric indices. The goal is to help people move from information to decisions without needing to interpret charts or scales. This is one of the first...
What’s the most frustrating part of planning a trip today?
Before building Triloka, we kept running into the same problem: too many tabs, conflicting advice, and a lot of effort just to feel confident about a plan. We’re curious - Is it deciding where to go? Figuring out what’s worth skipping? Balancing budget, pace, and interests? Or something else entirely? Would love to hear what part of travel planning you wish worked better, and how you currently...
How do you actually use environmental apps day to day?
Many people install weather or air-quality apps, but over time their usage patterns change: some check them daily, others only during extreme conditions, and many ignore notifications altogether. As we worked on AskIndra, we tried to understand these real usage behaviors rather than ideal ones. From your own experience: When do you actually check environmental apps? What makes you ignore or...
How should environmental data be translated into everyday decisions?
Many tools today surface environmental information (air quality, weather alerts, heat, UV levels) through dashboards, indices, and numeric scores. While this data is accurate, people often struggle to translate it into concrete decisions in daily life (when to go outside, whether to exercise, what precautions to take). As we prepare to launch AskIndra, we’re thinking deeply about this...
Barring the US, where is the best startup eco-system?
We’ve worked in two other eco-systems (India & France), and each has clear strengths and trade-offs in terms of talent density, cost of building, access to capital, speed of decision-making, and openness to risk all vary a lot. Curious to hear from founders and operators who’ve built outside the US: Which ecosystem punches the most above its weight today? Where do you see the best balance...
A 10–15 minute 2025 review for founders and builders who actually ship
As the year wraps up, I’ve been thinking about how most founders know reflection is useful, but rarely do it properly. Either it’s too vague (“we’ll grow more next year”) or too heavy to finish. Inspired by Dickie Bush & Nicolas Cole’s Yearly Review, I adapted a short 10–15 minute version specifically for founders, builders, and Product Hunt community members: Here’s the structure if you want...
