Hi HN, we're the founders of Filadd ( https://courses.filadd.com/ ). 80% of students in LatAm (Latin America) need private tutoring classes to prepare for university admission exams. The system is centralized and extremely high-stakes: exams only happen once a year and based on your score on the exam you can basically choose your university. If you don’t get the desired score, go home and come back the next year. So…

Congrats on the launch!

Fantastic website by the way. How are you planning to reach out to students in high school? The Pre-U market in Chile at least is brutal, and there are so many competitors that I imagine it might be hard to get some market-share.

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…

Sounds interesting! I’m on GKE. How does this compare against Cilium and the new Dataplane V2? https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/containers-kubernetes... Sounds like you have more work curating dashboards at the least. And maybe this bolts on to the standard kube-proxy dataplane so folks don’t need to change that?

Cilium has traditionally focused more on the security and performance side of Kubernetes networking. Cilium’s Hubble product more closely aligns with what we are trying to achieve, but with ContainIQ we simplify visualization, setup and host the data for you. Hubble currently sends the data to Prometheus, but we wanted to remove the headache of managing your own monitoring platform.

Exactly we bolt on to the standard kube-proxy setup. We put a lot of effort into ensuring that everything works right out the box.

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 XzAeRosho Brian here Im the Sitenna co-founder and CTO. As you can see this is a worldwide problem that we want to solve! We will be expanding globally but the initial rollout is US and UK focused. We would definitely love to hear from your FIL on what he is working on at the moment to see how we might be able to help.

> 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.

Thank you, glad to hear!

Just some quick feedback on your mobile site with iPhone Safari:

“Send a clients” typo on home page. Client should be singular.

Pricing page: not clear I could swipe plan cards to right. When attempting to swipe, could not get second card to come into view. Recommend letting them flow beneath.

Hey, we have been operating in Chile for the last year, and we aquire users mostly with ambassadors. They refer our product and earn a commission. Most of our ambassadors are followers in IG (https://www.instagram.com/filadd.cl/). Most of our competitors are Tradicional academies that are losing more a more share with new Covid Paradigms

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 looks great, and clearly addresses a serious need. I'm curious about your plan for scaling. It seems like finding qualified group leaders would be a limiting bottleneck.

How will you continue to find and supervise good group leaders as you draw more users?
