Hi HN! Last year the project I launched here got a lot of good feedback on creating speech to speech AI on the ESP32. Recently I revamped the whole stack, iterated on that feedback and made our project fully open-source—all of the client, hardware, firmware code. This Github repo turns an ESP32-S3 into a realtime AI speech companion using the OpenAI Realtime API, Arduino WebSockets, Deno Edge Functions, and a full-stack web interface. You can talk to your own custom AI character, and it responds instantly. I couldn't find a resource that helped set up a reliable, secure websocket (WSS) AI…

Hey HN, we've been working with OpenAI for the past few months on the new Realtime API. The goal is to give everyone access to the same stack that underpins Advanced Voice in the ChatGPT app. Under the hood it works like this: - A user's speech is captured by a LiveKit client SDK in the ChatGPT app - Their speech is streamed using WebRTC to OpenAI’s voice agent - The agent relays the speech prompt over websocket to GPT-4o - GPT-4o runs inference and streams speech packets (over websocket) back to the agent - The agent relays generated speech using WebRTC back to the user’s device The…

Hey HN! Built this because I was tired of waiting hours for transcription services and didn't want to upload sensitive recordings to the cloud. Real metrics from my M1 Max: 4.5hr video file transcribed in 3 minutes 32 seconds. Works completely offline. First 5 HN users who click the button on the page get it free. Literally promo code straight to the app sore Key differences vs Rev/Otter: - No 2-hour file limits (handles any length) - Timecodes stay accurate on long files (no drift from chunking) - Supports MP3, WAV, MP4, MOV, M4A, FLAC - Exports to SRT, VTT, JSON, PDF, DOCX, CSV,…

Hyper▲93Perfect memory for every real-world conversation

My friend built this and I'm blown away with how much fun it is and the high level of polish. It renders 9 different strange attractors (Lorenz, Rössler, Aizawa, Chen, etc.) as particle systems — thousands of particles tracing chaotic paths in real time. You can rotate and zoom with touch/trackpad in 3D. The sound is the part that surprised me. It's not a soundtrack — the audio is generated from the motion itself using spatial audio, so tones shift as the attractor's behavior changes and the sound moves around you as you rotate the form. Put on headphones. The Playdate version uses the…

Hey HN, we're building Hyper: an iOS voice recorder for the conversations that matter too much to pause and take notes. 1:1s with your cofounder, coffee chats, standups, whiteboard sessions. One tap to record, and when you're done you get a summary, full transcript, and tappable action items (calendar events, reminders, email drafts) — no notes needed. We built this because at our last company (a robotics startup), the most consequential decisions happened spontaneously — in hallways, over lunch, on walks. None of it got captured. Every recorder we tried was built for scheduled Zoom calls…
