Hey HN, we created Nanoblog because we wanted to keep our users up to date on our progress but found long-form blogging too time consuming. Nanoblog supports automatic posting from a buffer and crossposting to Twitter so it’s easy to write posts in batches.

We’d love for you to check it out, and give us any suggestions for improvements. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. We’re in the process of updating the GitHub repo. We’ve responded to a number of user comments and issues via email and we’re syncing the repo soon.

The organization thing may seem sketchy, and the only reason it’s setup that way is to keep the different repos we’re creating separate so they can be (theoretically) managed by different maintainers in the future.

Thanks for the heads up, we'll update the links now.

Sorry for any confusion, we tried to be clear but must have missed the mark :)

Here's how it works - Create an account, import your YC application or enter information about your startup manually, then send the shareable link for your startup profile to investors by Twitter or Email.

Hey HN, my co-founder and I created this little service after Thanksgiving to help founders share their startups with investors. We’re using the tool ourselves and figured other people might like it too.

We don't inspect or log any customer traffic, and we treat your VPN server as private and confidential. We aren’t currently able to sign a HIPAA BAA, but we’re working on being able to do so in the future.

The biggest difference is that you really do get your own private server running the OpenVPN and WireGuard daemons. Your team members get accounts on your server but no else does. Your server has a dedicated IP address for whitelisting, auto-scales with usage, and has no artificial limits on number of users you can add (though we do have recommendations for performance).

We're also adding site-to-site links with AWS/GCP VPC very soon and have transparent pricing.

The consumer VPN providers are pretty good for what they're designed for but are generally lacking the features businesses need. And the business VPNs are generally much worse to buy and use. We're working to build a consumer-quality business VPN.

Thanks for the question!

Yes, that's right. We're referring to IP whitelisting there. We're also adding (very shortly) site-to-site VPN connections, so users can link their AWS/GCP VPC or even a traditional office/datacenter LAN.

Even with a VPN, any sensitive services should have their own auth and logging enabled. Requiring a VPN doesn't remove the need for other forms of security, but it does add a very effective layer of security. We also have a strong business incentive not to violate the trust of our customers. We're hoping to prove that we can be trusted over time, and to use technology to reduce the need for trust.

Hi everyone, Co-founder of Portal Cloud VPN here.

Thanks for checking us out! We're about halfway through YC Startup School, and it's been an incredible experience so far (particularly getting to know/learn from our group). We just launched Portal Cloud VPN two weeks ago, and our goal is to enable teams to securely access private company resources (internal web apps/production servers etc..), and help remote employees or contractors secure their internet traffic.

We think all professionals & remote employees should be using a business-quality VPN, and would love to hear what you think (positive, or critical).

Thanks, Jeff@portal.cloud
