Brutal honesty, served fresh
Watch openGlad tear apart an idea in real-time inside Claude. Full pipeline: pattern scan, loss simulation, revenue gate.
An AI-powered MCP server that creates structured doubt. It doesn't help you build faster — it stops you from building things nobody wants. Powered by Reddit, Hacker News, GitHub, and Polymarket.

What It Does
openGlad is not an acceleration engine. It's a friction engine. Every tool is designed to block premature building and force revenue validation first.
Detects overbuilding drift, monetization avoidance, idea hopping, and prestige bias in how you talk about your idea.
Three-scenario prediction (Best / Likely / Worst) with quantified expected loss in hours, money, and missed opportunities.
Locks the build phase until you prove willingness-to-pay. You don't get to write code until someone will wire you money.
Real-time data from Reddit (11+ subreddits), Hacker News, GitHub, and Polymarket prediction markets. Overcrowding detection, tarpit alerts, and late-entry risk analysis.
Can't decide between two ideas? Parallel multi-source analysis of 2-3 ideas simultaneously. One ranked verdict. No excuses.
Clinical scoring across execution stability, revenue health, burnout risk, and distribution discipline.
Every analysis ends with confrontational closing sentences that reflect your behavioral flaws back at you. No sugar-coating.
Market Intelligence
Every market-facing tool aggregates data from all four sources in parallel, deduplicates cross-source results, and ranks by engagement — not just recency.
11 base subreddits + dynamic topic expansion. Engagement-ranked results with per-author caps to prevent single-voice dominance.
Free · No KeyAlgolia API searches the last 30 days of HN stories. Technical founder consensus — a completely different audience than Reddit.
Free · No KeyPublic search API surfaces competing repos by star velocity and recent push activity. Shows whether developers are actually building in your space.
Free · No KeyGamma API surfaces real-money prediction market odds. The most honest signal available — people betting their own money on outcomes.

How It Works
Connect once, get friction forever.
Add the openGlad endpoint to Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client.
Tell the AI what you want to build. openGlad intercepts and fetches data from Reddit, HN, GitHub, and Polymarket in parallel.
Cross-source duplicates are removed, results ranked by engagement, and evidence synthesized into a grounded market picture.
Get a brutal diagnostic: behavioral risks, failure simulations, and a locked build gate until you prove revenue.
13 Tools
Seven friction tools and six diagnostic tools, all designed to prevent you from wasting your time.
Pattern Scan + Loss Simulation + Revenue Gate with multi-source market data.
Parallel friction analysis of 2-3 ideas. Ranked verdict on which one to pursue — if any.
Catches overbuilding drift, prestige bias, and monetization avoidance.
3-scenario simulation with quantified expected loss, grounded in Reddit + HN + GitHub + Polymarket.
Locks building until you prove someone will pay.
Overcrowding detection, tarpit alerts, late-entry risk — across all four data sources.
Broad trend analysis with sentiment and red flags from Reddit, HN, GitHub, and Polymarket.
Auto-routes to friction pipeline or diagnostics based on input type.
Commit cadence, deploy failures, tech debt scoring.
MRR trajectory, churn, CAC/LTV, burn rate analysis.
Work patterns, cognitive load, recovery signals.
Channel health, funnel leaks, organic/paid balance.
Comprehensive diagnostic across all four dimensions.
