Life Note▲467I'm excited to share Life Note with you. I'm the maker and have spent the last seven months working on it. Inspired by Tim Urban's Life Calendar idea, I wanted to create something to help people make better life decisions at pivotal moments. After a few pivots, our users' favorite feature turned out to be journaling with AI Mentors, leading to the creation of "1,000 Great Minds." I've experimented extensively with prompt engineering to make AI Mentors' responses personal and valuable through techniques like chain prompting, conditional prompting, and personalized prompting. I believe it's…

Frederick AI▲140Hey HN, I quit my 9 to 5 to join an accelerator. Let's say things didn't work out there. After launching my fourth startup and failing miserably again I decided to work on Frederick AI. I realised a lot of the early stage processes from idea to startup are the same and we can use AI to automate a lot of it from the way we come up with an idea to how we run startups. Frederick AI is a set of tools for early stage founders we collect Market Data 24/7 to detect consumer, business and government problems for other startup founders to go and solve. We then create a business plan and a…

SourcePilot▲158It’s been a while since I’ve started to write a book . The process of creation of it has not been easy , first because I’m not a writer , I’ve created well though out internet posts here and there, which ended up creating my first book. It was a good experience , but then I’ve started to think that a book that just gathered my thoughts online it’s not entirely “writing” a book , I needed more. And than I’ve opened google docs and start typing. Then I started to figure out what I wanted to write: should it be a fantasy story, a self-biography, or an observation of the world? I believe most…

Lore▲130I built Lore because I kept losing knowledge — curl commands, quick notes from standups, and that one thing I told myself I'd remember. It lives in the system tray, a global shortcut pops it up, you type naturally, and it stores or retrieves automatically. Everything runs locally via Ollama + LanceDB — no cloud, no API keys. It classifies your input (thought, question, todo, instruction) and uses a RAG pipeline to answer recall queries from your own stored context. It's free and open source under MIT license, and even though its in very early version me and my friends have been using it for…

Atomic▲106Hey HN - I first posted about my knowledge base product, Atomic, here around a month ago; since then, a viral tweet by Karpathy has produced a torrent of AI powered knowledge base projects. meanwhile I've been shipping like crazy, here are some of the new features shipped in the last month: - Rebuilt the iOS app with an Android app on the way - expanded both the MCP and internal agent chat toolkit immensely - A custom, CodeMirror6-based markdown editor with obsidian-style rendering - A dashboard view that provides a daily summary of atoms created or updated in the last day And many bug fixes…
