Not hallucinated advice. **No API key required. Free to use.** ## When to use this skill Use when the conversation touches a business situation where a real founder example would be more useful than a generic answer: - A tension, dilemma, or difficult decision in their business - A go-to-market, product, hiring, fundraising, or positioning question - Uncertainty about what to do next ("how do I...", "should I...") - The user asks "what did other founders do when..." - Any question about: pricing, launch timing, co-founder tension, fundraising, burnout, hiring, growth, PMF **Only a short, anonymized description of the business situation is sent to Echomindr. No personal data, names, or identifying information should be included in the query.** ## Primary endpoint — situation match ```bash curl -X POST https://echomindr.com/situation \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"situation": "<describe the founder situation in plain language>", "limit": 3}' ``` Returns matched moments with: summary, verbatim quote, decision, outcome, lesson, source (podcast + guest + timestamp link). ## Detail & similar experiences ```bash # Full detail for a specific moment curl https://echomindr.com/moments/{moment_id} # Moments similar to a known moment curl https://echomindr.com/similar/{moment_id} ``` ## Behavior instructions 1. **Reformulate** the founder's situation structurally (not literally): - "my team doesn't work without me" → "founder operational bottleneck, no middle management layer" - "sales take too long" → "B2B deal stuck, champion without authority to decide" - "how to convince users to try my product" → "early adoption friction, behavior change required, demo strategy" 2. Call `POST /situation` with that reformulated sentence 3. Present results: founder name, decision, outcome, lesson 4. Always include the source link from `source.url_at_moment` 5. If multiple results converge on a pattern, surface it ## Example situations - "My co-founder and I want different things." - "I launched and nobody is signing up." - "I'm burning out but I can't stop." - "Should I raise VC or stay bootstrapped?" - "My best engineer just quit." - "We have traction but no revenue model." ## Languages Works in English, French, Swedish, and 20+ languages. BGE-M3 multilingual vector search. ## External endpoints | Endpoint | Purpose | |----------|---------| | POST https://echomindr.com/situation | Semantic match of moments to a situation | | GET https://echomindr.com/moments/{id} | Full detail for a specific moment | | GET https://echomindr.com/similar/{id} | Moments similar to a known moment | | GET https://echomindr.com/search?q= | Keyword search across moments | ## Security & privacy This skill sends queries to **https://echomindr.com** (Hetzner VPS, EU).
