PDR AI – Open-source startup accelerator engine for non-technical chaos

Show HN: PDR AI – Open-source startup accelerator engine for non-technical chaos (marketing, PRDs, onboarding)A couple weeks ago I shared PDR AI as an open-source tool for startup doc mess. Since then I've doubled down on the core vision: it's not just another RAG chat—it's an AI-powered accelerator engine that helps technical founders skip the non-technical pitfalls and move faster. As a solo technical founder, I wasted too much time on fragmented marketing plans, incomplete PRDs, onboarding docs, legal templates. PDR AI centralizes it all in a self-hostable knowledge base and actively accelerates progress by: • Document Sanity Chekcer (Verifying the content validity and consistency in the documents, extracing key information) • Marketing pipeline: Content ideas/trends for Reddit/X/LinkedIn/Bluesky, optional web-enriched analysis. • Team acceleration layer: Role-based access, invites, approvals, audit trails—great for small teams or accelerator cohorts reviewing docs. • Real-time dashboard: Tracks usage, accuracy (~99% on samples), compliance gaps, productivity. • RAG basics done right: Upload PDFs/Notion/Slack/GitHub exports, OCR support, pgvector semantic search, page-level citations, fast responses. Fully open-source (MIT), self-host via Docker/Vercel, bring-your-own LLM keys (OpenAI/LangChain now; Ollama/local coming soon). No lock-in, full privacy.

What marketing/product workflows hurt most? • Contributors: PRs/issues welcome, especially agent improvements or integrations
