24 alternatives to Chatter.Plus
Hello HN, I built Chatter because I was spending too much time copy-pasting feedback from my Discord channels and GitHub issues into a spreadsheet. I realized I was reading the same bug report 50 times, just phrased differently. The Problem: When you have a community, feedback is fragmented. A user complains on Discord, another opens a GitHub issue, and a third emails support. It’s hard to see the magnitude of a problem when the data is siloed and unstructured. What I built: Chatter is an aggregator that listens to these channels via webhooks/API. instead of just listing the messages,…

Integral ▲760i've been a power user of slack/discord and etc. since i was a kid and i dont like the fact that they get unusable/noisy after 20 members join. so i designed integral to get rid of the 2 biggest causes of noise on slack/discord and similar apps: 1. channels 2. recency based feed i've replaced these 2 with a few subtle features (different approaches for business vs communities). check it out and let me know what you think :)

A few days ago, I responded to a comment by bloggergirl offering to read anyone's web copy and help. I shot off an email hoping for a paragraph or two of feedback on my startup's copy. Instead I received a professional, detailed deck of tons of invaluable well thought out feedback. It must have taken her an entire afternoon. Here's a link to it: http://www.slideshare.net/shereefb/recommendations-for-bettermeans To top it off, this isn't someone with a lot of free time on her hands, she's only days away from launching her own startup (page99test) This community blows my mind!

It works on top of the open-source workflow engine windmill [1] that you can easily self-host on a tiny server or a large k8s cluster. You will also need pgvector (here hosted on supabase) and of course a GPT4 api key. It showcases an approval step so that you only provide answers you are confident giving to your users, which feels less robotic. All the building blocks are scripts that you can reuse outside of windmill and you could build this in any other workflow engines (although less conveniently). We use it for our own needs on discord [2] and thoughts this was a common need for any…

Ably Chat▲73Hey HN, Staff Engineer at Ably here. Over the past few months I've been speaking to engineers building AI assistants, copilots, and agentic workflows (over 40 companies at this point), with particular focus on cloud-hosted agents. I expected the hard problems to be in model selection, prompt engineering, and orchestration. Instead, the same infrastructure challenges kept coming up: realtime sync between agents and end clients is surprisingly painful to get right. - Managing and scaling WebSocket or SSE connections between agents and clients - Buffering messages server-side and implementing…

Hey HN, I'm Andrei, and together with my co-founder Roman have been working on a tool called Reviewradar. Working with startups, doing interviews and sifting through endless software reviews are daunting tasks. So, we built a chatbot that lets you chat with over 3 million reviews from more than 100K SaaS products. With Reviewradar, you can ask questions like: - create a comprehensive SWOT analysis for both Notion and Obsidian - give me negative feedback and complaints you have about Postmark - summarise the reviews you have on products in the OCR category I would love to get your feedback on…

Bindly▲76Hi HN, I’m a product designer by background, not a traditional software engineer. Over the last year, tools like Claude and ChatGPT completely changed how I work. I started with small internal tools, and now I’m “vibe coding” multiple highly personalized apps. As I iterated between Claude Code (implementation) and ChatGPT (ideation / thinking), I kept running into the same problem. To think clearly, I had to repeatedly re-explain: - what the code currently does, - what changed recently, - and why certain decisions were made. That re-summarization step became a real bottleneck. So I…

Ryva▲5Hey HN, I built Ryva because I kept seeing the same problem across dev teams. The actual state of the project lives across commits, PR discussions, and Slack threads. Nobody pulls it together. So teams hold a daily standup to reconstruct it verbally instead. Ryva connects to GitHub and Slack, reads those signals, and generates a written project state showing what changed, what decisions were made, what decisions are still missing, and what needs attention next. The goal is not to summarize activity. It is to replace the reconstruction meeting with something that already exists before the…

Hi HN, For years I’ve missed the feeling of an always-on chatroom without the silos and social overhead of Discord. So I built Together: a single-room, no-signup group chat that you join with one click. No channels, no rules (yet), no onboarding flow. Everyone lands in the same place and can start talking in under a second. Why I made it - Forums and blog comments are great but slow; Discord/Slack feel heavy for casual drop-ins if you aren’t already a member of a community. - I wanted the simplest possible space where ~100 people could idle, share shower thoughts, and keep the…

So I've been obsessed with a weird question for the past 6 months, what happens to SEO when everyone starts asking ChatGPT for recommendations instead of Googling? The answer, apparently, is chaos. And maybe opportunity? I built FirstClick because I noticed something strange. My previous startup was getting zero traffic from AI assistants, but our competitor (objectively worse product, sorry not sorry) was getting mentioned by Claude and Perplexity constantly. It drove me crazy. So I reverse engineered why. Turns out there's a whole new game being played and most founders don't even know it…

Howdy, Open Notes co-founder here! At Open Notes, we're building a system for community-driven constructive moderation and annotation that can be added to anything. Under the hood, we're using the open-source Twitter/X Community Notes algorithm (though that doesn't really kick in until you've got some scale). We're interested in providing everyone with tools for managing discourse that go beyond traditional moderation. Discord is the demo/reference integration, but we want it go anywhere and everywhere. Part of our thesis is that we want to get to where people are already talking…

Hi HN! I built this bot that allows you to chat with your technical documentation! It’s been pretty nifty so far on our Discord help forums, and it’s open-source so I figured I would share! Cheers.

This weekend I finally shipped Gryt, a project I’ve been building since 2022 — an open-source, self-hostable Discord-style app focused on reliable voice chat + text. I’m the creator. I started it after getting fed up with Discord disconnects/paywalls and wanted something self-hosted and auditable. I started on this in 2022 and had an early proof-of-concept working back then (auth + friends list), but I quickly realized WebRTC voice isn’t something you can duct-tape together. I spent a big chunk of the next couple years learning the stack (ICE/DTLS-SRTP, NAT traversal, SFU design),…

We are a small team and my standup workflow was: open Linear, find who's working on what, switch to GitHub, check PRs, switch back, share my screen, ask people to give updates they could've just typed. All so I could answer "what's everyone doing and is anything stuck." So I built a thing where I just ask. "How's the team" pulls up an overview. "What's Avi working on" shows their issues sorted by status with their PRs. "Anything at risk" shows stale and unassigned work. It renders actual interactive components, not chat responses, I can filter by status, priority, repo, whatever. The whole…

I’ve spent the last 2.5 months building a product that runs LLM-powered code reviews on my pull requests — and I just launched it. The tool is built specifically for solo developers. You install it on your repo, trigger a scan by creating a pull request, and it leaves structured review comments using OpenAI under the hood. Funnily enough, I used the dev version of this app to review its own pull requests while building it. It helped me spot bugs, simplify structure, and keep quality high — all with minimal need for another human in the loop. Things I want to try out in the next months : -…

Hi HN - I’m excited to share a fun side project we built recently CodebaseChat.com is a tool for building a GPT chatbot for any GitHub repo in 30 seconds It can be helpful when onboarding to new codebases, when needing help understanding system design, asking for less technical explanations of functionality We’ve been heads down building Context.ai, the analytics platform for LLM products. When OpenAI released GPTs earlier this month, we built one to answer questions about our growing codebase. It worked so well that we decided to open source the utility for other dev teams How it works: -…

Hi HN, I’m building Hideout, a small web-based chat app inspired by Discord-style rooms, but stripped down to the minimum. I started this project because I was curious about one specific problem: how do you make a real-time chat app feel alive with very few users? Right now: Hideout has ~35 users One main room Text chat only No moderation tools, bots, or servers to configure The app is intentionally simple. When someone joins, they’re dropped directly into the active room so conversations aren’t fragmented. The hardest issue so far has been the cold start problem — users joining at different…

Hi HN! Few months ago I've shared a new kind of markdown editor that we (a team of three from the Czech Republic) have been working on (HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46144801). What resonated with folks the most was Kraa's unique ‘real-real-time’ chat feature. We have now acted on this feedback, improved the chat features, and made what we call Kraa Trees. Trees allow anyone to create a light-weight community / chat channels. It would be a stretch to call it an alternative to Discord, yet, but we hope that the frictionless nature of Trees will make them…
