Beau ( https://beau.to/ ) is a no-code tool that helps businesses automate customer interactions and onboarding. Customers use our software to collect documents, manage payments, send messages and more. For example, tax advisors use Beau to collect documents and send reminders, and immigration consultants use us to automate repetitive client-facing processes. Currently, businesses use a mix of form builders, website…

> immigration consultants use us to automate repetitive client-facing processes

Yes! I couldn’t believe how inefficient the process of sending dozens of documents over email to my immigration lawyers was. Glad to see someone working on that problem.

Beautiful landing page, too.

Shimmer ( https://shimmer.care ) offers guided video support groups for people struggling with their mental health. Shimmer matches members with shared identities and experiences and places them in small groups that meet for weekly support sessions along with a qualified peer coach. During the rest of the week, members have access to our Community Platform (a mobile app and web app) to leverage resources like communi…

This is really great! A friend of mine recently stayed a clinic for two weeks for a mental health issue, and she said the best part was that she could talk to others in the group who had similar problems.

The best of luck!

Hi HN, we're Bianca and Fernando, founders of Portão 3 ( https://portao3.com.br/ ). We help companies in LATAM (Latin America) with their corporate travel, expenses and payments. We traveled a lot to visit clients in our previous companies, and realized that the corporate travel market had a lot to evolve technologically. Latin America didn’t have a startup helping companies and work travelers with a real all-in-one…

Congrats on launching, it is always nice to see more startups in LA. The first question that came to my mind seeing your landing is that it's everything in Brazilian Portuguese. Your market now is only BR? Because the rest of the countries in LA speaks Spanish (with a few colony exceptions). Are you planning to open to the rest of the countries? Have you already customers in Chile, Argentina, Mexico? Thanks!

hluska is right, you can use the globe at the top to change languages.

I have to say this is not intuitive and we actually purchased new domains for other countries yesterday and we will have dedicated websites for a lot of countries coming this weekend.

But yes, we do have customers in Brazil where we were born, but Chile, Argentina, Mexico, Colombia and Peru too!

As a previous corporate traveller, I agree with your value proposition. As a software engineer I was astounded by the very lacking systems we have here in South America. Most of the travel stuff was managed via email!! I absolutely hated every single second of having to manage my travels while working, since it meant digging through emails and even spam folders...

On another note, I'm based in Chile, and already have good connections with managers in key companies that may be interesting for you. If you're looking to expand to Chile, let me know so we can setup some talks ;)

My linkedin is in my profile.

Hey friends, congratulations on your launch! I really dig what you’re doing and enjoyed reading your website. Excellent work!

Thanks for the support hluska!

We are building ContainIQ ( https://www.containiq.com/ )! We provide Kubernetes native monitoring instantly with pre-built dashboards and easy to create monitors. A one-line install that takes 5 minutes to set up and it just works. By using eBPF we’re able to correlate kernel-level metrics with Kubernetes objects. Our current users are using our product to track and get alerted on things like p95/p99 latencies, Kuber…

Congrats on launching! One question about containiq though which I could not figure out with the skimming of the link. How it compares to (istio + prometheus + grafana)?

Thanks for reading! Our goal was to create an out of the box solution that didn't require on-going maintenance. Another goal was to make something that all engineers on the team would know how to use.

The amount of 1/2 broken prometheus/grafana setups we see is crazy.

From a feature perspective there is some overlap (ex pod/node CPU and memory). But we have features that you can't get from the solutions you mentioned (ex service latency, latency by URL path (coming soon!). And have a lot more in the roadmap too. :)

We are also housing and managing the data for our users.

Hey XzAeRosho! Bianca and I did a lot of corporate travel too, so we do feel your pain as well. I'll definitely reach out to you now, thanks for all the kind words!

Telmai ( https://www.telm.ai/ ) is a real-time data quality monitoring platform that can automatically detect and investigate data quality issues as data is getting ingested. Our tool uses a statistical and ML engine that helps data product owners understand data anomalies and intuitively define correct versus incorrect data. These definitions are then used to proactively monitor and alert on data quality problems. W…

Congrats on the launch!

I wanted to give some feedback on the pricing page: it's very vague, to the point I don't know how much I will end paying if I go over the 500k values (is that the free tier?).

Also, this is only for data monitoring, or can be used for stuff like server monitoring too?

Hey HN! We’re Daniel and Brian from Sitenna ( https://sitenna.com/ ). Sitenna is a marketplace connecting wireless carriers, tower providers and real estate owners. Think booking.com for telecom cell sites. Currently, it takes wireless telecom carriers up to 24 months to deploy a site because the process is based on screenshots, maps, emails, PDFs and spreadsheets. This is a particular issue with the advent of 5G whi…

Hi Daniel, congrats on the launch!

Is Sitenna US only? My FIL works on the telecom industry in South America doing location scouting for antennas, data centers, etc. He would really love something like this.

Hi YC, We’re Darrell, Jibril, and Robrecht, the co-founders of Appollo ( https://www.tryappollo.com/ ). Appollo is a single API to launch your app to all eCommerce platforms. Appollo enables you to create 1 app with our APIs and launch it to all the eCommerce platforms while also letting you maintain it as 1 app. Previously, you had to create and maintain an app separately for Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommer…

Hey! As someone who isn't super familiar with this space, I'm a bit confused about who your target user is. At first I thought it was for people who have a mobile app and want to publish it on a bunch of stores, but the APIs are all about querying products and customers, so I guess it's for integrating with eCommerce platforms? A concrete example use case on your website would help explain this to me a lot!

Browsing a bit through the doc I believe this is targeted to developers that build "apps" that online merchants can (buy and) use on their e-commerce website. I agree with alex: a sample app would probably make it more clear!
