Vanka AI describes an “autonomous company OS” where a founder starts from a short problem/solution statement and gets a structured startup package: business strategy, go-to-market framing, visual identity system, user journey, technical architecture, UI spec, and component library, plus an initial GitHub repo scaffold (and even entity-formation workflow) to hand off to vibe-coding tools or dev partners. https://www.vanka.ai/

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

A key design choice is to treat the company as an agentic system with shared context: Discord becomes the control plane, with AI “executive agents” that iterate plans, draft docs, and keep operations consistent across marketing, customer support, and finance. The pitch is less “let an LLM write your app” and more “keep cross-functional intent and constraints synchronized,” so execution doesn’t drift as the project changes in real time today.
Later in the interview (filmed at Web Summit Lisbon 2025), co-founder David Lee frames this around a “post-employment” shift: more people will need to validate ideas quickly, assemble teams selectively, and outsource what they can’t or shouldn’t do. Vanka asks for a founder profile and tries to flag likely shortfalls (security, positioning, distribution, customer experience, delivery risk), nudging you toward outside help instead of pretending one person plus AI can cover every discipline on day one here.
Pricing is described as $200/month, with multiple “runs” so you can compare concepts and see low-fi artifacts before committing engineering time. They also describe a monthly pre-seed selection of one idea for $20k total support ($10k in platform usage plus $10k cash), arguing that AI leverage changes what “enough” early capital can look like when the bottleneck is planning, iteration, and execution speed on a modern roadmap.
On reliability, the conversation leans on ontology and precision retrieval as guardrails against context loss and hallucination when automating money- and customer-impacting actions. Vanka says it acquired Fluxoid AI in November 2025 to add a precision, multimodal retrieval layer for more accurate recall inside each company’s knowledge base, and to bring Fluxoid’s founder Satoshi Kataoka in as technical co-founder/CTO to strengthen grounding in the loop.
