Products that do what I made an extension for ChatGPT that lets you track changes does
I’ve been using this for my own workflow and friends suggested I share it with them so I quickly threw together my first chrome extension! As an ex-editor, I think chatGPT is overlooked as an editor with everyone jumping straight into writing. Editing is essentially giving it as comprehensive a writing prompt as possible. Playing with the actual prompt also gets you a wide range of different results that grammarly/other apps cant really do. The x% has been changed tool was the first thing I built to see how intrusive chatGPT's editing was at a glance. My biggest struggle was trying to…

Hey HN, Like many of you, I’ve been using ChatGPT to brainstorm, debug code, and even plan projects. But as the number of conversations grew, I found myself scrolling endlessly trying to find old chats. It was frustrating and unproductive. So, I built PinFold – a Chrome extension to help manage and organize ChatGPT conversations. With PinFold, you can: Pin important chats for quick access. Organize conversations into folders (e.g., personal vs. work-related). Declutter your ChatGPT history and boost productivity. It's privacy-focused: no data is sent to external servers – everything is…

Everyone's favorite ChatGPT tool is the one they created themselves! Here's mine, a text editor for power users of ChatGPT, inspired by the flexibility of SQL workbench. I despise constantly switching between ChatGPT and VSCode just to copy and paste text for further editing. Lexeme is my attempt to solve workflow issues like this, along with a few other improvements. You can easily start a chat with ChatGPT by highlighting any text. Lexeme allows you to create multiple chats within the same document, keeping each chat context separate to support an iterative writing process with the help of…

I’ve created two sets of ”ChatGPT Custom Instructions” for folks using ChatGPT’s web interface (i.e. not via API). They aim to dramatically improve the quality, depth, nuance, and utility of all ChatGPT responses. Both of them instruct ChatGPT to begin its completion with a preamble designed to take advantage of how the attention mechanism attends to recent tokens. They relieve the user of having to determine a task-specific prompt, and turn even the simplest questions into high quality context for ChatGPT to attend to. The first (“Standard Edition”) is for both free and paid ChatGPT…

I built this using semantic search and the ChatGPT API, which was just released the other day. What makes it special is it not only understands the code you're debugging, but also pulls in additional context like relevant documentation to help answer your questions and suggest code changes. Ultimately, my goal is to take the hassle out of pasting error messages into Google, finding a vaguely related StackOverflow post, and manually integrating the solution into your code.

Hi friends! I've been waiting for ChatGPT Code Interpreter access for so long that I decided to just build my own. I figured maybe some of you are in the same boat so decided to do it as an Open Source project.

Hi everyone, I’ve been using ChatGPT to analyze my journal entries and to reflect with. It works great, I really liked it. I’ve managed to gain some good insights about myself and made improvements. However, there are a few problems: - ChatGPT only remembers key facts about you, it has limited memories - ChatGPT couldn't recall the content of conversations you had with it - For individual ChatGPT products, your private conversations might be used to train future models (see: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/5722486-how-your-data-is...) So, I decided to build my…

I kept running into this annoying problem: I’d remember a really useful answer, but not where it was. ChatGPT? Claude? Gemini? No idea. So I’d end up digging through all of them or just rewriting the prompt. Built this to fix that. It’s a Chrome extension that indexes chats locally and lets you search across them all in one place. Once it’s indexed, search is basically instant. Still early. UIs change and break things sometimes, so it’s a bit fragile in places. Curious if other people have the same issue or if it’s just me jumping between tools too much.

Was getting annoyed copy-pasting stuff from websites into ChatGPT all the time, basically wished Cursor's CMD+K worked everywhere. So I built a little Chrome extension, InPageAI, that tries to do just that: https://inpageai.com Hit a shortcut on any page, it grabs the context automatically, and you can ask AI to summarize, explain, etc. You can also use it to write directly into input fields/text boxes. It's pretty early days, but give it a try? Would love to hear what you think, or if you find places it breaks!

I was frustrated with how I share ideas online. LinkedIn/X forces you to compress everything into hot takes. Research papers require months of work. And posting on social media increasingly feels like trying on outfits in ChatGPT until you find one that "fits" – performance over genuine thinking. I wanted something in between. A place where: - Half-formed ideas are okay - Thinking evolves over time (with revision history) - Garbage gets pruned naturally through format itself and status tracking (exploring → resolved → abandoned) So I built Kwegg. How it works: 1. You're in ChatGPT or…

Hey everyone, I built a small Chrome extension that automatically removes em dashes from ChatGPT responses. It uses a few regex rules to guess the appropriate replacement punctuation (usually commas or periods). Goodbye AI slop!

It has been a while since I have shared my app, that I made to be able to practice my Danish while chatting with my grilfriend - I often used GPT to write as much as I can in Danish, and I replaced the words I didn't know with {Englis words in curly braces}. While this was great, it was rather annoying to type the prompt always, so I figured a GPT wrapper would work well here. Last time when I launched, it went viral! I was super happy (and grateful!) for all the feedback and excitement — but it also meant my tokens disappeared fast, and many people ended up trying an app that no longer…

This is far from complete, and I am far from an elisp genius, but this is an Emacs package to help you write code or text or whatever in your favourite operating system slash text editor. It's got a couple of useful functions like inserting at point with local code context, querying about something and putting the output in a temporary buffer, passing the current major mode to ChatGPT, contextual system prompts, and so on. Some small demos in the readme. Some of you may enjoy the deep magic this might unleash, so I'm posting it here. And feel free to add pull requests if you are a better…

Hey HN, As a heavy ChatGPT user, I often want to explore my chat history, look for things I've already asked, keep favorite chats, and much more. ChatGPT doesn't even offer search capability (except in mobile version). So I decided to build one myself. It runs locally, so no sensitive data leaks. You only need to export your ChatGPT conversations, and put it in the `data` folder. Optionally setup OpenAI API key and it will create embeddings for semantic search. *Important* - it's not a desktop app (at least, not yet) - it's a python code with a browser interface that I've only tested on…
