Ask HN: What avenue should I use to find help to fight Covid

1 point

Hello All!! I recently decided to share my app for free (will be SaaS) to medical equipment companies that are in the fight against this virus.

The MVP was outsourced since I'm code inept. When hospitals start using it, I'm not sure I can maintain it and keep it from crashing. The testing I have done seems like it works great but its an n of 3. I am a one-man band with no revenue at the moment. I did post it on LinkedIn along w/ a request for help.

Any other ideas on where I can find more tech savvy people like y'all?

The idea behind sharing it is that most of the equipment is repaired by specialist. This requires a phone call but the call centers are already falling behind. PLUS as more shelter in place restrictions and operators get sick it will slow the system even more. My app sends an email with images of anything broken or error codes and its sent directly to the repair company.

Happy to answer any other questions.

Thank you!! Tracy
