AI Assistant for Indie Hackers

Keep shipping while support and launches stay on track. GAIA drafts support replies, coordinates launch posts, and watches your PostHog metrics.

Indie hackers build, launch, market, support, and grow products single-handedly. Every operational task you handle manually is time not spent shipping features or talking to users. The most successful indie hackers automate relentlessly. GAIA acts as your AI co-founder, handling customer emails, monitoring product metrics, managing your social presence, and keeping the operational side of your business running while you focus on building.

Challenges Indie Hackers Face Every Day

−

Customer support emails compete with development time, and both suffer

−

Launch coordination across Product Hunt, Twitter, HackerNews, and Reddit requires simultaneous attention

−

Product analytics monitoring and metric tracking happen sporadically instead of systematically

−

Marketing and community engagement feel like separate full-time jobs on top of building
