    A few months ago, I was developing a bookmark manager for https://fika.bar. I needed a way to fetch metadata, screenshots, and markdown content from websites. Since Fika is a donation-based product, I couldn't afford any of the providers out there, so I decided to build instead of buy. "Easy," I thought. But weeks later, I found myself building data pipelines, implementing proxy rotation schemes, and dealing with TLS fingerprinting. Not fun—and definitely not how I wanted to spend my time. My product was a bookmark manager, not a data extraction service, yet most of my efforts…

    I'm a control freak, the thought of having AI auto-replying to emails is ridiculous. Every founder I've met are the same way, just typing the words "Put your support/sales on auto-pilot" makes me cringe. I built min. to help me and my teammates with emails. Who should read it, who should reply, when to follow up, etc. min. is: - A simple email interface to manage both private and team inboxes. - An AI-native inbox that sorts and prioritizes messages into custom labels and folders. - A replacement for patchwork of CRMs, helpdesks, and spreadsheets with just… email. - Conversational…

    Hi HN, Tanooj and Aziz here from Nerve. We’re building a work AI that handles full end to end workflows rather than just chat replies. It starts with proactively figuring out what’s important to you - anything you need to take action on or updates on any projects - and then moves all the way through the process. Nerve gathers the relevant information, drafts documents, writes jira tickets, sends emails, etc. What this looks like in practice is: say an account executive has a sales call that gets recorded into Gong, Nerve automatically picks up the call, and extracts the next steps. Users can…

    Hey everyone, I made this thing: https://tryflux.ai/. Here's a demo video: https://screen.studio/share/1y2EnC26 Context: I've tried probably 15 different AI apps over the past year. ChatGPT, note-taking apps, productivity apps, all of it. But most of them are just clutter on my iphone. They live in some app I have to deliberately open. And I just... don't. But you know what I open 50 times a day without thinking? iMessage. So out of mild frustration with the "AI app graveyard" on my phone, I built Flux. What it does: - You describe a personality and what…
