TL;DR▲199I love Hacker News but I rarely have time to read full articles / comments, so I built a simple site to summarize the top posts & comments to make it easier to get a big picture. A few implementation details: - It pulls the top stories from the HN Firebase API (`/v0/topstories`) - Filters stories with >200 points - Uses Claude Sonnet for post + comment summaries - Tries to capture the sentiment of the comments (still working on improving this) - Refreshes both posts + summaries hourly It has already helped me I hope it helps you! Please let me know if you have any feedback --…

VoteVid▲106Hey, I am Victor, a french student. I was tired of getting really bad recommandations from the algorithm, always the same videos, same topics. So I created a community-driven recommandation tool, with upvotes like Product Hunt or Hacker News. Looking for something to watch or want to share something you liked? Feel free to check the site, it's free, no account needed (unless you want to share or upvote a video).

Claim.Watch▲21Today I received the official confirmation: Claim Watch just won the Best Product Award at the Half Baked x Bolt Founder Hackathon. There were 20,000+ participants globally. I made the TOP 5, and then 130,000 people voted for Claim Watch to win first place ($7,500 prize). First-week impact: 1,000+ active users 1,000+ settlements identified $800k+ recovered for people I built this during the hackathon, and now it seems to be turning into a real product. Happy to answer questions about the tech, stack, or how the system works.

Hi HN, I built WhatHappened (whathappened.tech) because I have a love/hate relationship with this site. I love the content, but the "wall of text" UI gives me FOMO. I was spending too much time clicking into vague titles ("Project X") or wading through flame wars just to find technical insights. I built this tool to act as a filter. It generates a card for the top daily posts with a few specific features to cut the noise: 1. AI Summaries: It generates a technical TL;DR (3 bullet points) and an ELI5 version for every post. 2. The Heat Meter: I analyze the comment section to visualize the…

Hello, I made this site to combat misinformation on the internet by allowing users to prove that their claim is valid by linking multiple sources and combining them in a single link It's very early stage so I would love feedback on: - What types of claims would be most useful to you? - How can I make verification/sourcing more robust? - Any features that would make this actually useful vs just interesting? Thanks in advance, feel free to roast :)

Hi HN, This is Aki, a technical founder having previously shipped products to 1B+ people (I launched the heart button on twitter). I built Credible because I wanted a way to know whether something I'm about to read would be worth my time. I also got tired of context-switching to verify what I read. Credible is a Chrome extension that displays instant credibility scores directly into the pages you browse, including HN itself. ** How it works ** On HN Home: You see a credibility score next to each link. On HN Comments page: You see the full analysis of the linked article. This includes the…

TrueSift▲7Hey HN! I got the idea for this during the Lovable AI competition and decided to turn it into a Chrome extension. TrueSift helps verify the accuracy of online content in real time. What it does: - Uses AI to analyze text on any page and highlight questionable claims. - Provides quick fact-check summaries and trusted sources without leaving the page. - Lightweight and privacy-conscious (no unnecessary data collection). Why I built it: Misinformation spreads fast, and I wanted a tool that makes truth-checking effortless for readers, journalists, and researchers. Try it out: truesift.dev I’d…

Hey HN, v0 of a small experiment: a script that counts your page views (done so many times) but exposes them on a public URL so traffic becomes third‑party and linkable instead of “here’s a screenshot of my analytics”. Adding trust & shareable I’m curious if this is actually useful for you: For blogs/directories/communities that sell “exposure”, would public verified views help you prove you send traffic? For projects, would you use a simple public stats page in launch posts, open‑startup pages, or as a trust badge? What must be on that page (just views, growth chart, referrers?),…
