Most AI assistants sit there, cursor blinking, waiting for you to type something. [Lindy](https://www.lindy.ai) flips that entire dynamic on its head. With the launch of Lindy 3.0, the team behind it — led by Flo Crivello — has built something that genuinely feels like having a sharp, tireless executive assistant who already knows what you… Continue reading

If you’ve been anywhere near [Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/products/starnus) on February 13th, you probably noticed [Starnus](https://starnus.com/) sitting right at the top with 417 upvotes. That’s not easy to pull off, especially in the crowded world of B2B sales tools. So naturally I had to dig in and see what all the fuss was about. Here’s the pitch:… Continue reading

If you’ve spent any time in B2B sales, you know the drill. You load up a list of thousands of contacts, blast out templated messages, and then sit around hoping someone, anyone, bites. It’s exhausting, it’s lazy, and honestly, it barely works anymore. That’s exactly the problem [Gro](https://thegro.ai/) is going after, and the way they’re… Continue reading

Everyone in AI is talking about scaling transformers bigger, training on more data, squeezing another few points out of benchmarks. And then there’s [Stanhope AI](https://www.stanhopeai.com/), a deep-tech spinout from UCL and King’s College London, quietly building something that comes at the whole problem from a completely different angle — one rooted in how the brain… Continue reading

There’s been a lot of noise in fintech this week, but [Meridian’s debut](https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/11/meridian-ai-raises-17-million-to-remake-the-agentic-spreadsheet/) caught my eye for a specific reason — they’re not just slapping an AI chatbot onto Excel and calling it a day. Meridian is building a standalone financial modeling IDE, basically treating spreadsheets the way Cursor treats code. Instead of bolting an… Continue reading

There’s no shortage of “top startups” lists out there, but most of them are based on funding rounds, press coverage, or plain hype. [Unicorne](https://www.unicor.ne/) takes a completely different approach — it ranks the top 20 fastest-growing tech startups based on actual, verified revenue data. Not self-reported screenshots. Not projections. Real payments confirmed through Stripe, Paddle,… Continue reading

If you’ve been anywhere near tech Twitter or [Bloomberg](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-12/ai-startup-nabs-100-million-to-help-firms-predict-human-behavior) in the past 24 hours, you’ve probably seen the name [Simile](https://simile.ai/) pop up. The company just emerged from stealth on February 12 with a $100M Series A led by Index Ventures, and the whole thing feels like a sci-fi plot that somehow became a real business.… Continue reading

Okay, this one genuinely caught me off guard. [The Biological Computing Co.](https://www.tbc.co/) — or TBC — just came out of stealth with a $25 million seed round and what might be the wildest pitch in AI right now: using lab-grown living neurons as a compute layer for frontier AI models. Not simulated neurons. Not “brain-inspired”… Continue reading

I stumbled across [OpenHarness](https://openharness.dev) on a [Show HN post](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46982105) yesterday and honestly had to read the pitch twice. The concept is wild: you submit an open source project idea, the community votes on it, and if it hits 100 upvotes, AI coding agents — we’re talking Codex, Claude, Cursor — just… build it. For free.… Continue reading

I’ve been following the AI video space pretty closely, and honestly, [Runway Gen-4.5](https://runwayml.com/research/introducing-runway-gen-4.5) caught me off guard. Not because another model dropped — that happens every other week — but because this one actually delivers on the hype. With an Elo score of 1,247 on the [Artificial Analysis Text-to-Video leaderboard](https://artificialanalysis.ai/leaderboards/video-generation), it sits above Google’s Veo… Continue reading
