I Built IdeaBridgeHub in 4 Months with AI & Zero Coding Experience — A Proof-First Founder OS. Private Beta in ~1 Week.

Hey IH đź‘‹
I'm Prav — a regular 9-hour day-jobber with no traditional coding background.
Over the last 4 months, I’ve built IdeaBridgeHub almost entirely using AI tools (ChatGPT and Cursor).

I wanted a place where an idea could grow through real validation, become real proof, and bring a team together around it — so I built one.

Now it's just one week away from a small private beta—polishing the final touches:
A proof-first Founder OS that turns scattered validation into credible assets for attracting co-founders, collaborators, and professionals.

🎯 The Problem
Early founders do interviews, surveys, prototypes, landing pages…
and everything ends up buried in WhatsApp, Notion, Sheets, screenshots.
Then they pitch a co-founder:
“Trust me, I validated this.”
But there’s nothing structured to show.
IBH fixes that by turning chaotic validation into reusable, versioned, structured evidence.

🚀 What IBH Actually Does
Validation
• 7 guided sprint types (Interview, Survey, Landing Page, Prototype, Pricing, Usage Metrics, MVP)
• AI converts messy interview notes into structured insights
• Every sprint generates versioned evidence
Proof
• Evidence Ledger with visibility control (private / team / public)
• One proof per sprint — always versioned and traceable
Optional Expert Reviews
• Professionals can add reviews or co-signs (never mandatory)
• Credibility only when founders want it

Collaboration Workspace:
Inside each idea:
âś” Kanban tasks
âś” Real-time team chat
âś” Files & shared docs
âś” Sprint + evidence timeline
âś” No more 6 disconnected tools

Co-Founder & Professional Discovery
• Search by roles, skills, and interests
• Profiles backed by actual validation work, not vague claims
Thesis: Validation work should compound into trust — not disappear into documents.

✨ What Makes IBH Different
Other tools let you log learnings.
IBH is aiming to be a Founder OS:
Idea → Sprint → Evidence → (Optional Expert Reviews) → Team → Professionals → Progress
Your validation becomes an asset.
Experts build dynamic, evidence-linked portfolios inside IBH.

đź’Ľ The Professional Portfolio (What Makes It Unique)
Not a simple profile page — it’s a living validation résumé:
• All ideas they reviewed/advised
• Structured review fields (methods → confidence → insights)
• Evidence they've co-signed
• Track record across founders
• Skills, industries, expertise tags
• Reputation signals tied to real proof
• (Coming in beta) advisory calls, research support, MVP-building services

👥 Who IBH Is For

Founders:
• Validating solo but need credibility to find a co-founder
• Want structure instead of scattered apps
• Want to show progress, not explain it

Professionals:
• Want portfolios built on impact, not fluff
• Want founders to discover them through real work
• Want their advisory contributions to be visible and measurable

🎯 The Bet I’m Testing
Does proof-first founding actually work?

• Will founders run structured sprints if it helps them recruit?
• Will co-founders choose people with evidence over promises?
• Will professionals prefer portfolios built from their contributions?
• Does a Founder OS centered around proof solve a real pain?

Private beta opens in ~1 week.
First 50 get “Founding Member” status + priority onboarding.

    Love this, Prav : really resonates.âś…

    I’m in a similar boat: I can read code but barely scratch the surface, so I rely on AI as my co-pilot. My flow is usually Claude as project lead, Gemini for secondary tasks, and Cursor to tie it all together.

    Spent months building an AI job-search assistant that never got traction, and now I’m fully focused on tiny apps, small, fun tools where even a handful of engaged users feels meaningful.

    AI + a clear workflow reall
    y turns “mediocre dev” into something that can ship fast.

    1. 1

      Thank you so much, this really means a lot.

      Your workflow sounds very close to mine. I’m also someone who can read code but not go very deep, so AI became my actual team, ChatGPT for the thinking, Cursor for the building, and small tools in between to keep everything moving. It’s amazing how far that combo goes when there’s a clear structure to follow.

      And what you said about AI + workflow turning mediocre dev into someone who can ship fast is exactly how IdeaBridgeHub happened for me. I needed a place where interviews, insights, and small experiments wouldn’t get lost across WhatsApp, Notion, Sheets, and screenshots.

      Once I built that structure, everything clicked, and one big thing I wanted was a shared workspace, so the moment a founder gets real proof, their team can actually work around it together chat, tasks, alignment score, everything in one place instead of scattered conversations.

      I'm about a week away from having the private beta ready, just polishing stability and the final touches now.
      Really appreciate you sharing your experience, it’s encouraging to hear from someone on a similar journey.

        Keep us updated! Looking forward to seeing where this goes. You’re proving that clarity an d the right tools can turn ideas into reality. Keep shipping! 🚀

          Thank you. I really appreciate the support. I’ll keep sharing as things move, the last few pieces are coming together now.

    RECOVER YOUR LOST BITCOIN // WITH THE HELP OF GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER

    I’m Thermos Lucas. I'm here to tell my testimony about how. GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER enabled me to recover my stolen BTC. A few months ago I lost $673,000 worth of BTC to a fake investment company. I don’t know how they got my email but I received an email from Investment Bank with a good proposal on how I could make millions out of my investment with them. I was convinced when they showed me profits from other clients that had invested in their platform, I began investing with them. When it was time to withdraw my profits, their website was shut down and I tried contacting them but they wanted me to pay a huge amount of fee to be able to withdraw my funds which I did until they cut me off and stopped all communication with me. I was shocked and devastated, I realized there was nothing I could do to recover my funds, I had gone to the authorities but they couldn’t assist me. I did some research online and I came across a post about GEO COORDINATES RECOVERY HACKER Their professional team was super and it took them less than 48 hours to get my funds back from these scammers. Geo Coordinates Hacker is here to provide that service for you. I highly recommend their services to everyone.

    Love this. What stands out isn’t just that you built it with AI, but that you focused on the validation workflow — the part most founders skip and then regret later.

    Turning messy interviews, notes, and prototypes into structured, versioned proof is a huge unlock. Tools that make founders look credible instead of “trust me, bro” feel overdue.

    Excited to see where this goes. Proof-first building feels like a trend that’s about to explode.

    1. 1

      Thank you . You summed up the whole purpose of IdeaBridgeHub better than I ever could. Most founders jump into building and end up with interviews in Notion, screenshots in WhatsApp, insights in their head… and nothing connects.

      I wanted a workflow where interviews → insights → small experiments → evidence → shareable proof all stay structured in one place.
      And once you have proof, your team can actually work on it together, there’s a built-in workspace with chat, tasks, and collaboration tools so everyone stays aligned on the validation, not just the building.

      If you’re open, I’d love to include you in the early private beta — your perspective feels exactly right for where this needs to go.

      Thanks again
