Voice-Generate Startup Hypotheses and Test Ads
Kriptering · hn · 2026-07-14
This is a Hacker News "Show HN" post for a product called Microphone, where the author launched the beta for trie.dev.
The product concept: users speak their side project or startup ideas into their phone, and the system organizes these verbal inputs into hypotheses. It then filters for problems "only you can solve" based on user experience and reachable distribution channels. It can also directly generate creative assets and test these hypotheses via Meta ads, aiming for zero-config validation entirely on mobile.
The author mentions it was originally built as a "pre-launch intake form" for themselves and friends. A waitlist is now open, with TestFlight access available.
