One thing I ve been thinking about while building is that our real competitor often isn t another startup. It s the spreadsheet someone already has, the manual process that s good enough, the employee who s always handled it, a messy collection of tools, or increasingly, just opening ChatGPT and asking it to figure something out.
So I thought it could be fun to turn that into a little product arena.
The real cost of compliance isn't the price tag it's the deal sitting frozen for 3 6 months while you scramble to get audit-ready.
I kept watching promising contracts stall the moment a buyer's security team asked for SOC 2 or ISO 27001. The process was brutal: gather evidence manually, write policies from scratch, coordinate with an auditor all while trying to actually run the company.
I am building Anotee after watching client feedback get scattered between email, chat and shared review links.
The premise is simple: every note should stay attached to the exact timecode and video version it refers to. I am looking for ten editors or small production teams to try the workflow on a real project and tell me where it fails.
This is my product, not an independent recommendation. If you use Frame.io, email, WhatsApp, or another tool today: what breaks first when a third review round begins?
Token Calculator (tokencalculator.ai) is a free tool developers use to estimate and compare token costs across every major model GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and Perplexity. Every person who lands on it is doing one thing: pricing an LLM API right before they build.

Hello everyone, I'm building Motionly, an open-source motion graphics editor that helps you quickly create and refine animations for content creation.
Instead of generating a finished video that you cannot change, AI can help create an editable project that you can open in Motionly and visually adjust. You can tweak timing, movement, fonts, colors, assets, and layouts before exporting the final result.
I did not expect this platform to do what it has done for me the last two weeks.
I have spent hours commenting on other people's launches here, mostly because I like thinking through other people's problems, not because I expected anything back. A few of you took the time to actually argue with me, update your product off something I said, or just answer honestly instead of leaving a one line thank you. That kind of attention from someone who owes you nothing is rare, and some days it has meant more to me than I expected a forum comment to mean.
