24 alternatives to A Simple Inbox for Your Exceptions and Odd Events
Hi HN, Our Slovenia-based team has worked on numerous projects over the years, and we kept running into the same challenge—handling rare exceptions, edge cases, and one-off manual workflows. Instead of rebuilding the same tooling every time, we decided to create a dedicated solution: Exceptions Inbox. It's a container for your exceptions, rare manual workflows, or events that don't have an obvious home. You can submit an exception with a single HTTP request and get notified when they are collected. Take a look: https://wt.tools/home/exceptions-inbox Let us know if you…

Hello Inbox▲283Hey HN, I built an email deliverability SaaS with a RAG system. It's trained on all my knowledge and hundreds of real deliverability use cases from 4+ years experience as an Email Deliverability Specialist on Upwork.

Hey HN! We’re open-sourcing highlight.io (https://github.com/highlight/highlight), a session replay and error monitoring tool. Highlight.io gives you a high-precision video-like replay of what users are doing when an error or exception occurs in your web app, along with a full-fledged error monitoring experience (similar to bugsnag, rollbar, etc..). The main value prop of highlight.io is that we help you understand the full context surrounding an error and allow you to drill down to the code path that a user invoked (i.e user clicked button X, sent network request Y, and…

Most feedback tools are built like people actually want to report bugs. They don’t. Unless you make it dead-simple, or better yet - a little fun. After shipping a few SaaS products, I noticed a pattern: Bugs? Yes. Bug reports? No. Not because users didn’t care but because reporting bugs is usually a terrible experience. Most tools want users to: * Fill out a long form * Enter their email * Describe a bug they barely understand * Maybe sign in or create an account * Then maybe submit it Let’s be real: no one’s doing that. Especially not someone just trying to use your product. So I built…

Hello HN! I wanted to share something we at Good Enough (https://goodenough.us) built over the past year: Jelly! https://letsjelly.com Jelly is a simpler shared inbox for small teams (like us) to answer team email. We had just been sharing a login to Fastmail previously, but as email started getting busier, that really started to stink as a solution — no one knew who was going to answer what, if someone else saw an email or not, etc etc. And a Google Group would prove to be worse, as replies too easily got lost to personal inboxes if someone accidentally didn’t “Reply…

Hi HN! We’re Aleem, Chris, Borys, Meichen and Zach from Streak (YC S11) and today we’re open sourcing our InboxSDK https://www.inboxsdk.com, which makes it easy to build apps for Gmail.

InboxSDK gives you a high-level, declarative API to insert your UI into Gmail without having to directly manipulate the DOM yourself. End users install a browser extension to use your app. The SDK can add UI to multiple areas of Gmail. For example,…

Just launched Errorception http://errorception.com/ yesterday. Errorception is a error tracking service which catches and reports in end-users' browsers as they happen. I built Errorception since I couldn't didn't find any error reporting system that (a) didn't rewrite my JS, (b) didn't modify the browser runtime by overriding common functions, and (c) had a zero performance cost, especially with regards to blocking script tags. Would love your thoughts. Site: http://errorception.com/

Incident/Ops▲59I've been an on-call engineer at startups where "incident management" meant someone panic-creating a Slack channel called #fire-fire-fire, or all incidents handled in the #incidents channel at the same time... and the postmortem was whatever someone remembered to write in Notion three days later. So I built a Slack bot to fix my own workflow. Figured I'd share it. What it does: "/incident start sev2 API latency spike" creates a dedicated channel, invites whoever's on-call, pins the details, and starts recording a timeline. When you run "/incident resolve", it uses GPT-4 to analyze…

I’m thrilled to finally be able to show everyone what we’ve been working on for the last 2 years. We’re re-inventing the email experience to help you email smarter and faster, so you can get more done, and maybe even actually enjoy your inbox. When we launched Firebase here 10 years ago, HN was tough but fair, and I expect no less this time around! I hope you’ll check out what we’ve built and share your feedback. I’ll be around here all day and am happy to answer any questions. Let us know what you think!

Hi everyone, I built a runtime to isolate untrusted code using wasm sandboxes. Basically, it protects your host system from problems that untrusted code can cause. We’ve had a great discussion about sandboxing in Python lately that elaborates a bit more on the problem [1]. In TypeScript, wasm integration is even more natural thanks to the close proximity between both ecosystems. The core is built in Rust. On top of that, I use WASI 0.2 via wasmtime and the component model, along with custom SDKs that keep things as idiomatic as possible. For example, in Python we have a simple decorator:…

Hi Hacker News! We’re Vadim and Chris from Highlight.io [1]. We do web app monitoring and are working on using LLMs/embeddings to add new functionality to our error monitoring product. Given that there’s a lot of founders/engineers using LLMs in their products, we figured we’d share how we built the new functionality, their impact on our workflows, and how you can try it out. Our goal was to build two features: (1) tagging errors (e.g. deeming an error as “authentication error” or a “database error”); and (2) grouping similar errors together (e.g. two errors that have a different…
