Investing involves a ton of repetitive tasks. What if I could vibecode a tool to automate them? This morning, I built an app on Lovable to research founders.
Here’s how it works…
Building Founder Intel
I started with a simple prompt…

In minutes, Lovable created a nice-looking UX. Founder Intel is born!
This makes you wonder about the future of Figma. What’s the point of a mock-up when you can pop up a real product so quickly?
Lovable asked me if I wanted to connect the application to an LLM so it can find real data.
Weird question, right? Why wouldn’t I want real information?
Vibe coding still struggles to understand user intent.
I told Lovable to hook me up. Lovable connected to Gemini, and I was ready to test my tool for the first time.
Taking My New App for a Test Drive
I used Founder Intel to look up Christina Cacioppo, the founder of the awesome SOC 2 platform, Vanta.

It came up with good, accurate information about Christina, providing a clear explanation of what Vanta does. It also included the Series C she raised from Sequoia.
But the info is a little dated. It didn’t mention the Series D, raised last July.
All in all, although Founder Intel is a cool little product, a good LLM would have done a better job. If I put Christina’s name into Grok 4.20 Beta, I get up-to-the-minute info with elaborate sourcing.
Wrap-Up
Even if the output wasn’t perfect, making Founder Intel was fun! If you have folks on your team that are struggling with AI, a vibe-coded tool could be a great way for them to interact with it.
This little app is as basic as it gets. I’m looking forward to creating more complex automations that can make my work easier.
What are you guys vibecoding these days?
