ArchiLabs is building an ai copilot for architects, with the eventual goal of building a full AI architect that can work alongside architecture teams. We are a team of CMU engineers with deep construction experience looking to make the lives of architects easier. We have good initial traction and want an engineer who is excited to make a massive impact on a legacy industry.
I built out a few helpful SQL tools (some AI, some not) that I wanted to share with the community. The goal is for these tools to help in the process of learning SQL, organizing SQL, optimizing SQL, and picking up an existing SQL project.
SQL Tutorial – a fun, interactive tutorial for 30+ SQL statements[0]
SQL AI Optimizer – optimize your SQL statement[1]
SQL AI Explainer – explain your complex SQL in plain language[2]
SQL Formatter – format your SQL nicely[3]
Let me know what you think, would love feedback on how we could build these tools to be more helpful
Currently no per user limits today (other than 60 min per audio file which is built into the API). I may need to add per user limits in the future to be fair to everyone, depending on usage. I initially loaded about 3,000 hours of audio credit into the service to see how that goes; I’m more than happy to increase that if it gets good, organic traffic.
No big plans for the free transcriber at the moment other than to share it with the community and improve SEO.
My goal is to grow the API service and the best way I could think of is to unobtrusively build add on tools and well-researched blog posts to create community value that hopefully drives some API sign ups.
I did my best to add some helpful but not overly sales-y copy to the free speech to text tool page (I targeted about 500 words, most after the tool itself in case people didn’t want to scroll). Any suggestions for copy improvement?
These kit homes definitely exist -- the big problem is that the site work is often 50%+ of the actual costs of installing the unit. We definitely intend on bringing down site costs as we make our units lower impact on the property on which we build.
We don't see bankruptcy as quite inevitable as you do :) In all seriousness, as written somewhere else on this thread:
"We will need to eventually give custodial ownership to a larger entity (think big bank) in the medium term to mitigate the risk of our company going under for the homeowner, such that, if the worst-case scenario happened to our company, the homeowner continues to make rental income as usual."
Hi there -- this is Brian from Rent the Backyard. What we are doing here is finding a synergy between homeowners and renters, allowing for people to profit off their unused backyards while increasing the housing stock. Airbnb started the trend of being able to monetize your home in the form of rental income and we see ourselves as an extension of that phenomenon. In our case, homeowners give up zero privacy to make meaningful extra income. We help existing homeowners stay in their homes amidst rising costs in the Bay Area.
Hi there! You can always choose to buy us out of the contract whenever you want -- we just ask for people to pay for the equity they have yet to earn in the unit. We will need to eventually give custodial ownership to a larger entity (think big bank) in the medium term to mitigate the risk of our company going under for the homeowner, such that, if the worst-case scenario happened to our company, the homeowner continues to make rental income as usual.
Absolutely nothing. There are two things that we provide that going directly to a builder can't get you:
1) No upfront costs. We pay for the entire unit without asking our homeowners to put any money down.
2) Turnkey solution. We do all of the building and rental management for the homeowner, allowing them to sit back and see rental income coming in.
