Show HN: A fitness tracker for social health

Hacker News - Tue, 04/29/2025 - 7:33pm

Hi HN - a while ago I became interested in the rising rates of loneliness and mental health issues among young people. I read some really interesting research showing that short in-person interactions, even seemingly trivial ones between strangers, can provide a significant boost to mood and well-being. So, with some others, we built 5 and Go! to help people increase the frequency of their interactions with friends and those around them.

While we have gotten some incredibly positive feedback from a small number of users, we have struggled to build a user base and retain users (even those who reported a significant improvement in their mental health after playing for 1 week).

Any feedback would be really appreciated.

iOS only. We have just started testing a subscription model, but you can get a year for free with this link: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=1628590307&c...

Thanks!

How to Register a U.S. Business Remotely (Even If You're Overseas)

Hacker News - Tue, 04/29/2025 - 6:55pm

If you're a founder outside the U.S. but want to tap into its massive startup ecosystem, here's a practical guide to registering your U.S. business—without ever stepping foot in the States. Why This Matters The U.S. is still the world’s most attractive market for launching and scaling startups—thanks to better access to funding, legal protections, and massive consumer potential. And now, you can set up your company from anywhere. What You’ll Need (and How to Do It) Choose a Structure: Most non-residents go with an LLC or C-Corp.

Pick a State: Delaware and Wyoming are top picks for tax and regulatory reasons.

File Your Company: You’ll need a U.S. registered agent, and file articles of incorporation.

Get an EIN: This is your company’s tax ID. You can apply online through the IRS.

Open a U.S. Bank Account: Look into fintech platforms that allow remote setup.

Build Business Credit: Use Net 30 vendor accounts that report to business credit bureaus.

Tools That Help Baxiq offers a full-service startup toolkit—from incorporation and legal support to pitch decks and branding.

Red Spectrum helps you build business credit fast, especially if you don’t want to rely on your personal credit.

Bonus: What the Data Says 5.5 million new U.S. businesses were registered in 2024 (U.S. Census Bureau)—many by international founders. Legal + financial infrastructure is becoming more remote-friendly. TL;DR You don’t need to be in the U.S. to start a U.S. business. With the right tools, EIN, bank account, and credit-building strategies, it’s fully possible—and increasingly common.
