We finally launched our new product after the pivot!

I pivoted Orango to MCP-USE and launching soon 🚀

I was building Orango to allow AI agents to use any software product.

Then, MCP came out.
Model Context Protocol is the new standard for connecting LLMs to external tools, data sources, and environments.

So we started building mcp-use, the open-source library to interact with MCP servers with custom agents.

Are GitHub stars important for YC applications?

Hello PH

We applied to Y Combinator few days ago and we ve had a few spikes in GitHub stars after sharing our open-source project with dev communities.

But we re wondering: how important are GitHub stars when applying to YC?

Also curious to hear from fellow open-source builders:

Which European countries do you consider pro-startup?

In my opinion, the startup scene is not evenly supported, and some countries are not so passionate about business. I'm from Central Europe, and I don't feel any extra entrepreneurial spirit here.
From my observations, countries like France, and Germany (maybe Poland) have always been mainly startup-oriented.

In terms of more favourable taxes for entrepreneurs, Cyprus and Estonia came to mind.

But maybe I'm wrong and I'm overlooking local communities.

A story on how users didn't get our product right away that you'll relate to! 😅

Hey PH! I'm Luigi, and I've got a story you'll relate to.

Ever built a great product that left users scratching their heads?

I spent 2 years at Morgen Calendar.

What do you think the future looks like for developers when it comes to AI?

ICYMI: @levelsio shipped a flight simulator game last week. It's pretty fun, it's got some low poly / minecraft-esque graphics, pretty good physics, a turbo boost, and even PvP. The kicker is he built it, at least the version one anyway entirely by prompting @Cursor.

It got me thinking about a question that a ton of people have tried to answer in the past few years; What does the future look like for someone getting into development?

I'm the Product Hunt CEO, and I've launched 8 times on PH. AMA (unfiltered)

Product Hunt changed my life. A year ago I stepped in as CEO, and a couple weeks ago we launched Product Forums (which you're reading this on!). Before that I founded and launched @Tandem (virtual office - YC S19), and @Cryptagon.io.

Ask me anything about Product Hunt, launching, startups, YC, or what we're trying to do with forums!
