    With AI, it's faster than ever to ship a marketing site... but most of what gets generated is slop that was never built to be found. Plus the tools meant to catch that fall short: most SEO auditors cost money, don't play nicely with your agents, or tell you what's wrong without telling you how to actually rank for SEO and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization: being cited by AI search like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews). crawlie fixes that! It's 100% free, it's local-first, it's agent-native (MCP baked in!), and every issue it finds comes with why it matters and how to fix it.

    I tend to use AI to brainstorm domain names, but I kept wasting time pasting each idea into Namecheap to see if they were available. So I built DotComBuddy - it generates ideas (using DeepSeek V3 - switched from GPT-4o after realizing quality was just as good) and checks availability in real time via Name.com’s API. Built with Next.js and Vercel’s AI SDK, the app gives you a table of available domains with their price. 10 free searches to try it out, then $9/year (what I’d pay to never do this manually again). Sharing this for anyone else tired of switching tabs to check domains. Happy…

    Hi HN, I built Get AI Perks to solve a problem I faced myself: keeping track of free credits, grants, and deals for AI tools is painful. Most "perk" lists are hidden behind expensive paywalls or buried in incubator intranets. I wanted to make a clean, public dashboard where developers can easily find valid offers for tools like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Deepgram, and others. Key Features: - Approval Index: I try to track how likely you are to actually get the perk (High/Average/Low approval rates). - Search & Filters: Filter by category or provider (e.g., "Free", "OpenAI",…

    Hi HackerNews, Ruslan here. I once posted here a story how I got AWS $4k surprise bill for one day (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31907374), which is why I built DollarDeploy. I believe 95% of apps don't need complicated AWS infrastructure and can be hosted using simple server from Hetzner, Digital Ocean, etc. Today I am launching an AI agent on DollarDeploy. The AI agent can automatically build and deploy your NextJS/React, Go, Rust, or other types of apps to your own servers, running all commands via SSH on your server. You just type your commands or paste your…
