About

Hi HN!<p>I’ve always found it hard to explore the Mahābhārata and Rāmāyaṇa online. Most content is either long-form or scattered, and understanding a character like Karna or Bhishma usually means opening multiple tabs.<p>I built <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ithihasas.in&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ithihasas.in&#x2F;</a> to solve that. It is a simple character explorer that lets you navigate the epics through people and their relationships instead of reading everything linearly.<p>This was also an experiment with Claude CLI. I was able to put together the first version in a couple of hours. It helped a lot with generating structured content and speeding up development, but UX and data consistency still needed manual work.<p>Would love feedback on the UX and whether this way of exploring mythology works for you.

AI Score Reasoning

Ithihāsas is a well-executed side project addressing a specific UX gap in cultural content, but it currently lacks the scalability, moat, and monetization potential required for venture capital investment. While the use of AI for rapid development is a positive signal of builder efficiency, the project remains a niche utility rather than a high-growth startup.
