I'm currently reading the almanack of Naval Ravikant. So I built a QA bot using GPT to ask questions as I review its content. Stack used: * LangChain (framework + QA agent) * Steamship (AI Infra) * Vercel (Front-end)

Many people subscribe to email newsletters curated by a human on a specific topic. What if you could create a news brief for any topic, with AI? I'm Chris, and I created Bullet Points, an AI-assistant to help you stay briefed on any topic in the news. You give Bullet Points a topic, and it shows you the top stories related to that topic, with AI-generated summaries and links to the underlying sources to dig further. If you like what you see, you can subscribe to daily or weekly briefs for that topic, delivered to your inbox. Whether you're a professional keeping up with industry news, a…

Hi HN! My name is Aymen, and I'm here with Kenichi. Some years ago, I launched a side project. A newsletter called DevOpsLinks, then a 2nd newsletter (Shipped), then a third one (Kaptain). These 3 newsletters are now part of a bigger project that I called FAUN (https://faun.dev). We have newsletters, a Slack team chat, and a job board, but I had a feeling that something is missing... it's a podcast, right :) Last year, I discussed the idea of creating a podcast with a member of FAUN (who is Kenichi btw), but we were not really ready. That's why it took us some months to start…

We did a livestream on Facebook where our model is running in real time on the interview. https://www.facebook.com/udotong/videos/10214047632934326/ Thoughts on where this would be the most valuable?

We knew we were going to get a bunch of press today after releasing the news of closing our round -- so we decided to build a custom landing page for folks coming from the publications that ran stories about us. (You can see it here: edulender.com/march8. Our normal home page is here: edulender.com/) We will publish some summary stats here in an update in the next day or two -- but we'd like to know what y'all think about this method. Wise or unwise? Enlighten us.

Hey all. Today the book on remote working that I wrote for The Pragmatic Bookshelf has gone into beta. It's called Effective Remote Working. I didn't plan on writing a second book, but 8 months ago during a conversation with the publisher we agreed that it was the right time for a book like this. My first book was Become an Effective Software Engineering Manager, which I did a Show HN on before: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22033129 That book has so far been successful with lots of great reviews and over $100,000 in net sales. A beta book with PragProg means that you…

I'm trying to get the motivation up to actually finish building out a "real" product, and I found myself needing a "win" to keep my momentum up. So, I hacked out a little one sentence journal app last night. I experimented with a few UI things (e.g.., the autosaving of the sentence for today and so on), so it was a good learning experience also. You can check it out at: http://osod.im

Recently, I was exploring the idea of using AI agents for real-time research and content generation. To put that into practice, I thought why not try solving a problem I run into often? Creating high-quality, up-to-date newsletters without spending hours manually researching. So I built a simple AI-powered Newsletter Agent that automatically researches a topic and generates a well-structured newsletter using the latest info from the web. Here's what I used: - Firecrawl Search API for real-time web scraping and content discovery - Nebius AI models for fast + cheap inference - Agno as the…

Hello HN, My name is Deepak. I've created this platform (https://stackcrunch.io) where developers can share their experiences in form of short stories linked to real-world practical solutions on Q&A platforms. This project is currently in early access mode, where you can check out the platform & start writing your stories. Also, please do check out the launch article and how to create a story at https://stackcrunch.io/posts I'd love to hear back from the community. Warm Regards, Deepak

Hey, I want to show you my demo AI-powered app that helps summarise someone's recent tweets to help you decide whether to follow them. It'll give you an idea of the tone and languages they use too, If you don't want to spend time scrolling through Tweets, let AI tell you what someone's been Tweeting about recently! Built with Haystack: https://github.com/deepset-ai/haystack It uses text-davinci-003 from OpenAI (for now) with a custom Haystack PromptTemplate. You can check out the source code here too: https://github.com/TuanaCelik/should-i-follow

Hey HN, I’m a solopreneur and have been in the SaaS space for the past 3 years. My last 3 startups failed, and a common challenge in all of them was figuring out how to reach my audience. Recently I started with cold outreach (its a struggle, since I dont have much experience with marketing). I am finding leads mainly using exa.ai websets (web vector search, extremelly good for multiple use cases, recommend checking them out) and then sending them through smartlead. I ran the campaign for the past 30 days and 12-15% emails always bounced. This wasted my email credits & chances of reaching…

I built Read Fast after realising I was saving hundreds of things to read and reading almost none of them. It automatically turns saved content into a scheduled briefing and sends it to my inbox at whatever time I choose. New version since last post actually allows you to bulk upload URLs. So you can just dump links here and Read Fast will scrape and brief for you. Great for actually reading the things I want to. Curious if that resonates with people?

Hi everyone, I read HN every day, but there was always more great content than I had time to read. I know there are already several HN summarizers on GitHub, and I tried some of them. They just didn't fit the workflow I wanted, so I decided to build my own. My project is a self-hosted app that automatically fetches top stories, summarizes them with AI, translates them into your preferred language, and prepares a personalized daily briefing in a nice customizable UI while you sleep. Maybe I'm not the only one who wanted this kind of workflow. I'd love to hear your thoughts, especially on what…

I'm founder and creator of LaunchVitamins (https://launchvitamins.com/). Inspired by a tweet by Shaan Puri and a Brainstorms.io newsletter, I created Launch Vitamins. The premise is pretty simple, receive a daily SMS message to help keep you productive and accountable. It's a real human (me) on the other side. We are more productive when someone is watching, so if you are starting a side gig or deep in work in something established, check out my site. I'd really appreciate it! Craig Tweet mentioned:…
