Products that do what Gulp, our take at incident response does
Hi HN! We're excited to share Gulp — an open-core platform for incident response and threat hunting we've been building for the past 2 years at Mentat(https://mentat.is), a small Italian cybersecurity company. The problem: We were frustrated with existing IR tools. They're either too slow, make real-time collaboration painful during live incidents, or force you to fight with different log formats instead of actually investigating. What Gulp does differently: - Visual timeline analysis — Our color-coded timeline visualization lets you spot anomalies instantly. Instead of drowning in…

Hi. We just open sourced Bullet Train, a Feature Flag and Remote Config platform. It's a collection of tools: server API, admin front end and clients for a bunch of different platforms. Together they allow you to control feature flags and remote config across projects, environments and users. We realised that we were building ad-hoc feature flag stuff into individual projects over and over, so we had a look around to see if there was a way of doing this in a more formal manner. There are a few commercial solutions around but they were quite expensive and seemed to be aimed more at the…

I built IncidentPulse after the classic "Slack-on-fire, status-page-outdated" outage chaos. It's a clean, self-hosted tool to track incidents, responders, and updates. Live Demo: https://incident-pulse.vercel.app GitHub: https://github.com/bhoyee/IncidentPulse I'm at a crossroads and would love your blunt feedback on one question: What's the ONE feature that would make you actually switch from your current process (be it PagerDuty, a messy Slack channel, or nothing) to a tool like this? Other things I'd love thoughts on: Is the webhook setup (with HMAC,…

We’re George and Ann, and want to share a Hacker News specific browser extension that we have been working on. We all love the rich discussions in HN, but navigating long posts with multiple threads can sometimes be challenging. You get lost in the depth and breadth of the discussion. There are a few AI-based summarization tools, but they typically focus on summarizing the article rather than the comments, and thus miss the essence of threaded discussions. So, we built Hacker News Companion, a browser extension that makes it easy to navigate discussions and understand diverse viewpoints…

Former investigative reporter turned developer. I built a simple breaking-news monitor because tracking events across platforms is a mess now that Twitter’s unreliable. Bluesky is the backbone (a fraction of twitter, but still lots of journalists and OSINT folks), plus RSS, Telegram, Reddit, YouTube and Mastodon. Everything is one chronological feed with no algorithm, clear source labels, and lightweight activity detection when a region spikes above baseline (frequency math, not LLMs). But we do have a (hopefully non-obtrusive) AI-generated recent/post summary. Been building for a…

I just want to share this little weekend experiment. I used gource (usually intended to show git repo changes over time) with web server logs. Video is at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqV8wqy0v7w It's showing the web server activity for a non profit, requesting and receiving payments, accepting new members, as well as having the two admins making changes around. This is actually surprisingly easy to do with gource by just providing a log file in a pretty simple format instead of providing the git repo. This is a low traffic server but I find it quite interesting as a way…

I wanted to share something I've been working on recently: Statum, a handy web analytics tool. https://github.com/extractumio/statum The journey began when I found myself frequently needing simple web analytics for my projects. I tried Google Analytics, especially GA4, and realized it was quite complex and, at times, not very accurate, especially when I wanted to view stats for the current day or recent hours. Then I tested a few fancy startup solution but ended up with way too expensive plans the expect me to subscribe (I'm not that rich to pay $99/month for every…

Hey HN, I got tired of rewriting the same event handling code, so built a more permanent solution for myself. The idea is something happens here (a signup, a failed payment, a support ticket, an error) and three things need to happen there: a Slack message, a row in a database, an email. Every time it's a new handler in code (maybe even retries, a queue, etc.) and maybe even more work integrating with Customer.io, Zapier, and so on to "get it there". So I built my own, re-usable solution that handles the above. You build a pipeline, throw events at it (SDK or HTTP), and it runs on every…

There is too much of everything in cybersecurity. Noise, FUD, unfulfilled sales promises, incidents, things to address, information to process, technologies to look at, people to educate. I am working as a CISO and it's mostly my job to raise awareness, understand all the risks, track all current issues and prioritize them, and be able to communicate all that with proper references and examples to our management team. I've been building and dogfooding a tool that ingests much of the noise and provides focused notifications per cybersecurity topic and regular awareness texts. The idea was to…

I've tracked the top 3000 subscribed (and some subreddits that I visit frequently) subreddit's active user over time, so you know when to post to get the most feedback! I come from a nodejs background, and this is the first time coding with Go, so the structures might not be standard. But feel free to give me any feedbacks!

Hi HN, The two of us are working on our real time analytics service Worldlogger for two-an-a-half months now. Today we rolled out a new version. It still has some bugs here and there, but it works :) Worldlogger kind of does what Chartbeat and Getclicky are doing, but we try to mix the best from both worlds ;) Curious what you think about it! http://worldlogger.com/ Cheers E

A few weeks ago I got rejected from a role and the feedback was that I needed a deeper understanding of FAISS and LlamaIndex. So I built triage.flow — an AI assistant that lets you explore and understand GitHub repositories through a chat interface. It clones a repo, indexes it using FAISS + BM25 + tree-sitter parsing, and powers a full UI where you can: - Ask natural-language questions like “how does auth work?” or “explain @src/components/Modal.tsx” - Mention specific files/folders with @filename.ts (autocomplete supported) - See how the agent thinks in real time (Thought →…
