TheHog.ai is an AI-native go-to-market intelligence platform that helps teams find the best way to reach customers. We unify your internal and external GTM data into one command center, then orchestrate specialized AI agents to surface prioritized actions, monitor competitors, and translate insight into clear next steps your team can execute. Built for modern, lean teams, TheHog acts like a Head-of-Growth co-pilot. It continuously maps your ICP, channels, and opportunities, spots shifts in the market, and stack-ranks what to do next based on goals and constraints. Instead of scattered dashboards and guesswork, you get focused recommendations, crisp briefs, and repeatable playbooks you can run across paid, content, outbound, and partnerships. What you can do with The Hog (today): - Identify where your ICP actually spends time and how they behave - Run market research and trend analysis with plain-language insights - Monitor competitors and your category daily - Listen across Reddit, LinkedIn, X, forums, and review sites - Refine strategic messaging and positioning - Plan SEO and PPC with keywords, budgets, and content drafts - Auto-draft posts, comments, and replies for social engagement - Power founder-led thought leadership and brand awareness - Orchestrate multi-channel acquisition beyond crowded defaults

Course Finders mission is to provide students with as much information as possible during the course registration process. This includes publicizing past student performance on specific courses, professor ratings, and registration tools such as scheduling and planning. Course Finder was started at the University of Washington and, upon launch, had over 4,000 students using the website with over 40,000 course searches. Course Finder is now actively expanding to other schools and the universities, with the goal of becoming the #1 resource for students during their course planning and registration path.
