Hi everyone 👋
It’s Chris & Daniel, from Startups.fyi.
Welcome to the month of July, we are already in the second half of 2026. That is a big win for all of us.
Now let's get into what we found this week. Remember, if this email was forwarded to you, you can subscribe for free and get instant access to all past editions.
We’d love to hear from you—if there’s anything you'd like us to cover, just reach out on X and say hi! 👋🏾.
With that in mind, let's dive into this week's startup discoveries. 👇
Startups FYI Spotlight
✨ Here is a free open-source plugin helping thousands of startups validate ideas before writing a single line of code. (Launched in 2026 by a UK founder who has a thing for building new ideas.)
🤖 Write down any company or startups, and this tool will turn it into a full executive briefing in seconds with the decision makers, active ads, competitors, tech stack, buying signals, and sales angles . (Built by a solo founder from Córdoba, Argentina, he launched this tool because he knows what it feels like to attend 3-4 meetings a day and talk about tools he just heard about)
📈 This tool was fully VC funded in 2013 because of its unique approach as an all-in-one engagement platform that creates personalized experiences for customers. (From Mountain View, CA, this tool is generating $300 MRR.)
You already have a take on which AI lab ships next.
Claude or Gemini? OpenAI or Anthropic? GPT-7 before year-end or not? If you read tech newsletters, you've already formed opinions on all of it.
Kalshi has real-money markets on which AI model leads benchmarks this week, which lab ships AGI first, when Anthropic releases Mythos, whether OpenAI raises ChatGPT pricing, and which company has the best coding model at year-end. These aren't abstract questions — they're live markets with real money on both sides, moving as labs ship, benchmarks drop, and announcements land.
The edge belongs to whoever actually follows this space. Not the casual observer — the person who reads model cards, tracks evals, and notices when a new release outperforms the field before the mainstream press catches up.
That person has a genuine edge. If that's you, Kalshi lets you act on it.
💍This tool is making $800 MRR by generating personalized wedding speeches based on your relationship to any couple, your tone, and the details you share. (It is a no-code tool from India launched as a side project for the founder.)
🤖 Discover the AI tool changing the game of ChatBot. It lets you build your own AI chatbot for customer support, without needing to hire a developer. (This tool makes $1,077 MRR as a subscription base business.)
🚫 This founder is a COO who codes, which is why he built a Chrome extension that flags corporate jargon in Gmail and LinkedIn and translates it back into natural language. (Generating $1,500 MRR for the solo founder as a side project.)

Startups FYI Roundup
💻 Create a $12K/month business from one Photoshop problem
Customers are hard to come by for most creators. As Vikash grew his business, he built a repeatable content system that brings in customers on autopilot by solving one frustrating Photoshop task. This video shows you exactly how he went from idea to profitable Micro SaaS.
⚒️ He Built a $20K/Month App in Just 14 Days Using AI
At just 23, Connor Burd has built multiple AI apps that generate over $100K in monthly revenue. In this interview, he shares the framework he uses to validate ideas before building, how AI helped him reduce development time from months to just two weeks, and the Facebook ad strategy that consistently brings in customers.
🤖 This AI Agent Turned One Workflow Into a $47K/Month Business
Most people think of Hermes as just another AI chatbot, but that's only scratching the surface. Behind the scenes, it can remember information over time, update its own playbooks, coordinate specialized AI agents, and continuously improve workflows without constant manual input.
