An experiment: funding an independent dance theater piece like a startup
Hi HN,
I’m a dancer and small business owner who runs a Pilates studio in NYC. Recently I decided to do something slightly irrational and produce an evening-length dance theater piece independently.
Normally projects like this rely on grants or institutions, but I’ve been curious whether it’s possible to approach funding a piece of art more like a startup experiment.
The “product” is the performance itself. The costs are things like rehearsal space, paying the second performer, costumes, and building a small set.
Instead of waiting on grants, I started trying to raise the budget directly from people who believe in independent work.
It’s an unusual experiment and I’m learning a lot about what it takes to make something exist without institutional backing.
If anyone here has thoughts about creative funding models or ways artists might approach this differently, I’d genuinely love to hear them.
And if you’re curious about the project itself, I’m happy to share more.
Thanks for reading.

Show HN: Chrome extension that tailors your resume to a job posting in one click
Job tailoring advice is everywhere but it all bottlenecks at the same place: actually doing it 50 times. Copy resume, paste into ChatGPT, rewrite bullets, reformat everything that broke, repeat. Ajusta sits on the job page (LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.), reads the posting, and rewrites your resume against the JD without touching your formatting or adding anything that isn't already there. The output is your resume with tighter language and better keyword alignment, not a new document built from a generic template. The constraint we cared about was hallucination. A lot of resume tools will invent responsibilities or rephrase something so aggressively it no longer reflects what you did. Ajusta only works with what's already in your resume. Still early. Would genuinely like feedback from anyone who tries it, especially on edge cases like non-standard formats or roles with heavy technical terminology.

20yrs later short history of B2B sales enablement knowledge management BizSphere
Show HN: I built an AI-assisted roadmap tool to prioritize SaaS features
I build SaaS products and WordPress plugins. One recurring problem kept coming up.
Feature requests everywhere.
Twitter replies. Emails. Support tickets. Random Slack messages. DMs from users.
The problem is not collecting feature requests. The problem is deciding what actually matters.
Votes alone don't solve that. The loudest users win.
So I built BuildVote.
It is a public roadmap + feature voting system, but with an intelligence layer that tries to understand the context behind feedback (yes, it is a constant improvement of teaching the system).
Instead of only counting votes, the system analyzes comments and feedback signals to help identify patterns and priorities.
The goal is simple: Help product builders prioritize features with better signal, not just noise.
Current features: - Public roadmap with feature voting - Context-aware feedback collection - AI-assisted prioritization insights - Changelog and roadmap transparency - Simple embed / hosted roadmap
The target users are: - Indie SaaS founders - WordPress plugin developers - small product teams
I built it because I wanted something I would actually use for my own products.
Still early. I'm still working on many things. In fact our product roadmap is the show-and-tell of the product.
I would love feedback from builders here.

Show HN: Automated Testing for AI Agents
Hi Hacker News! We're launching Zalor, an agent testing platform.
Agents often break when you tweak system prompts, swap models, or add tools. Zalor automatically generates test scenarios and evaluates your agent so you know it's reliable before deploying to production.
We currently support the OpenAI Agents SDK and are onboarding other frameworks. A GitHub integration is coming so you can get feedback on every update.
Looking forward to hearing feedback from people building agents.
