Askfully.
Google for polls.
A global polling platform: anonymous polls with demographic breakdowns by age, gender, and country — cold-started with AI-seeded data.
The story
Polling platforms have a chicken-and-egg problem: nobody answers polls on an empty site, and nobody posts polls where nobody answers. Most polling startups die in that loop before they find out whether the product works.
Askfully attacks the cold start directly. AI-generated seed responses model realistic demographic distributions — sliced by age, gender, and country — and are clearly separated from real votes, so a brand-new poll already tells a story while organic responses accumulate. The result reads like "Google for polls": ask anything, see how the answer breaks down across the world.
The platform shipped in 48 hours as a complete product: Next.js and PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM, NextAuth with Google OAuth for zero-friction voting, and the Anthropic SDK powering the seeding engine. It runs on its own VPS with CI/CD and nightly backups — production infrastructure, not a weekend demo.

AI-seeded cold start
New polls are never embarrassingly empty: synthetic seed responses model realistic distributions until real votes arrive.
