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 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?

Currently we've adopted the requirements and interviewing strategies from leading support groups such as Mental Health America.

Surprisingly there are a lot of thoughtful people out there with solid experiences facilitating discussions/conversations and this has not been a bottleneck for us!

$50 a month is a lot of money for a lot of people with mental health issues. I get it's a lot cheaper then normal care by going to see a professional but I was expecting the student pricing I guess

From an American viewpoint at least, this is actually very reasonably priced. Paying I have never pursued therapy but I'm sure it would be a minimum of $30 per session with insurance, if not more.

Not to say it couldn't be better, but at first glance this is a _great_ improvement from the status quo.

I'm wondering what sort of "app" would be deployable to all these platforms? Any examples?

Is Shimmer a health care provider?

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?

Thank you so much for this feedback. Regarding the pricing page we will tighten it and also add calculator, please stay tuned. For now the way it works is after first 500K values we charge $150 per 1M attribute values/month.

We dont monitor server or any infrastructure, we are designed for data quality monitoring we can flag issues like missing data, volume drifts, schema mismatch and where we stand out is monitoring actual accuracy of data at record value level. Example : We can flag anomalous titles, emails , overrepresented phone numbers etc

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…

As a fellow brazilian I'm happy for you guys. I don't know very much about corporate travel, but I loved the idea behind Anywhere Office. If it's any help, there's some text color issues on your website header, and the language dropdown is breaking on larger options.

Hey Vini! Thank you for the kind words. That actually helps a lot, working on it now.

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 your launch. Your site was a little light on details. Could you say how your product compares to Pixie which is also Kubernetes-native and uses eBPF? https://pixielabs.ai/

Thanks so much!

The initial version of ContainIQ is in a similar space to what pixie has built, but our eventual vision has a few differentiators. I believe Pixie was built using BCC (an assumption based on the 2GB requirement and their BPF trace tooling) which requires llvm and the kernel headers to be installed on every node. This ends up requiring a lot of ephemeral storage. Since Kubernetes is most commonly used for stateless applications this ends up being a problem, because the default node storage allocatable is relatively low. We’re in the process of migrating out from BCC to libbpf which should alleviate a lot of the issues associated with the larger storage/memory footprint of BCC. We also have a few unique features in the pipeline that I believe are unique to our product (EX: P95, P99 http latency by microservice endpoint).
