I built Valoris Research to solve a problem I kept running into: there’s a flood of brilliant AI research on arXiv every day, but very little of it makes the jump into real, venture-backable startup ideas.
Valoris Research is a daily feed that:
- Scans the latest arXiv AI papers
- Evaluates them for market potential, customer pain points, and venture readiness
- Publishes concise, human-readable venture ideas inspired by the most promising works
Think of it as a bridge between emerging academic research and practical innovation — built for founders, investors, and technologists looking for their next big idea.
I launched this as a side project a few weeks ago and have been shipping daily. I’d love feedback from the HN community — especially around:
- Usefulness of the venture idea format
- Gaps or improvements you’d want as a founder or investor
- Whether there are other research domains I should cover beyond AI
Happy to answer questions about how I evaluate research, pick ideas, or scale the pipeline.
