thisorthis.ai▲135Hey HN — I'm Parth, I built thisorthis.ai because I was tired of copy-pasting the same prompt across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini tabs to figure out which model actually gave the best answer. What it does: You type one prompt, pick 2–6 models (we support 47 text models and several image models across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Meta, Amazon, Mistral, Cohere, AI21), and see every response side-by-side. There's also a feature called SmartPick that uses an LLM evaluator to score each response on Clarity, Accuracy, Completeness, and Helpfulness — useful when you're comparing 6 models and…

Hey HN — 2 months ago we shared our first product with the HN community (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43362535). Despite receiving lots of traffic from HN, we didn’t see any traction or retention. One of our major takeaways was that our product was too complicated. So we’ve spent the last 2 months iterating towards a much more focused product that tries to do just one thing really well. Today, we’d like to share our second launch with HN. Our original idea was to help software engineers build high-quality LLM applications by integrating their domain knowledge into a…

Hey HN, After GPT-3 created waves in the tech industry, a lot of AI tools were emerging and with that, some AI website builders But the results seemed way too generic to us. It felt like the developers were rushing to catch the wave instead of building a proper tool We took our time, did months of RnD and finally came up with something better than what others in the market are doing. It’s got better design output. While it’s still in beta, I wanted to show HN what we did. Will appreciate the feedback when you guys try it out. Here is the link to signup for the beta:…

Over the last 3 weeks, I built a website to organize 70+ AI tools into a searchable, reviewed, and categorized hub. Use case: I was constantly sharing AI tools with friends & colleagues, but the available directories felt outdated, shallow, or spammy. So I built my own: - Tools are categorized (e.g. writing, voice, code, automation) - Marked clearly as free/paid - Includes brief reviews, ROI notes, and usage tips - Fully searchable and updated daily - Working on tool ratings, comparisons, and a “trending” leaderboard Website: https://www.toolsverse.tools/ I’d love…

aifeed▲10Hi HN! I built aifeed as a simple, real-time feed for AI-related links. It's meant for following new tools, articles and projects as they appear. You can also save interesting links to your favorites so they don't get lost. Submissions are community-driven, with light moderation and a small fee to reduce spam. Happy to hear any feedback.

Heuristica▲34Hi HN! I have built an AI-based content creation tool called Content Explorer. Instead of writing to create the best content, it allows you to iteratively discover it by offering a bunch of operators that modify and enhance your initial input. The node-based interface allows you to easily visualize the result of your operations and compare and contrast different versions. I like the mental model of Large Language Models as word calculators. So I have built this word editor that works like an image editor since we can now process language just like we have been processing images. You can use…

I made this tool to get some better intuition on how neural networks/backpropagation worked, but I'm really unsure what to do with it now, so I've put it up on github, and I wrote a little primer on backprop and neural networks to showcase it. Really curious to hear any thoughts you might have, or anything I got wrong in the write up!

Hello everyone, I doubt this would be relevant to the kind of person who uses HN, but I thought I could share for some feedback. I built this site because there is a whole world of people who believe in new age spirituality and I am very much one of them. It is a site where you get the users gender their goals and their images and use AI and psychology to generate images of them in the process of achieving their goals. I am so deeply struggling with how to get this highly on Google. I don't even know if that is important anymore. What are your suggestions with distribution and getting in…

Hi HN — we’re building high-level capabilities for AI applications at Gensee: packaged tooling + infra that remove brittle low-level plumbing so teams can focus on their product’s real job. After speaking with many AI developers and experiencing it ourselves, we found that building agents requiring web content is often bottlenecked on the “search” part, as it involves iterations of search, crawl, extract, re-query, and error handling. We package all these search-related low-level details in an efficient and more intelligent way, so AI builders can get back to work on their core agent ideas.…

Think of HackerNews, but only for AI content. Did build this out of the wish for easier discoverability of new technologies in the AI/ML space. Obviously, so far only a tiny small community, but maybe a few of you find it nice to be around and want to post a link there every now and then :)

Hey HN, when building ML systems for industrial AI, we have learned that data inspection is critical during the ML development process. We are also big fans of the Hugging Face ecosystem. That is why we built an integration to our data exploration tool Spotlight that allows you to interactively explore Hugging Face datasets with one line of code. Spotlight lets you leverage model results such as predictions and embeddings to gain a deeper understanding in data segments and model failure modes. Currently, many many NLP, CV, Audio and multimodal datasets are supported both locally and on the…

StayUpAI▲11Hi HN! I just launched StayUpAI, an all-in-one platform to stay ahead in the AI world. It aggregates AI news from multiple sources (articles, research papers, YouTube), then uses AI to summarize all news daily or weekly. Core features: - Unified AI news feed (with source/language/theme filters) - Daily & weekly AI summary emails - Summaries for each news item (papers, YouTube, articles) - Multilingual news (with translation) - Free to start, no personal info needed for a quick test I built this because tracking AI news is overwhelming, and I wanted a tool that does the curation…

Hey HN - We're building wispbit (https://wispbit.com/) - a tool that lets you build your own AI code reviewer. We built this because we worked in big and complex codebases where we kept hitting booby traps - often the same ones. People forgot things, or quit altogether, amplifying the problem. We looked for other ways to fix this, but the solution is usually a combination of: - Writing a linter rule - too difficult and time consuming. - Writing docs and having frequent meetings on alignment - basically a full time job. - Using plug and play code reviewers - too generic and…

AI Things▲10I built aithings.dev to make it easier to find good AI stuff — not just tools, but also books, videos, tutorials, and communities worth joining. The goal is to have one place where builders, learners, and founders can explore what’s happening in AI without endless scrolling or random links. It’s still early, but it’s growing fast. There’s also a newsletter that curates the best new AI tools and resources every week.

Koubou▲9Hey! I saw this post a few days ago on HN [1] about the new Nano Banana model and decided to play with it. It's incredible (Mostly for editing IMHO)! The thing is, Google AI Studio is great for chat... for images, the UI is not ideal. So I decided to make my own thing: an infinite canvas for AI image exploration. :) Right now it only supports Nano Banana, but the plan is to include OpenAI, Replicate, and fal.ai this week! Would love to hear any feedback. Feel free to propose changes as well! Github: https://github.com/za01br/koubou [1]…

NanoLab▲8Hi HN I built MonkeyAI — a site that curates creative templates and examples for AI image generation, designed to help artists and designers find inspiration faster. When experimenting with different image models, I noticed that generating great visuals often depends on how the prompt is structured — the tone, subject, and composition details matter a lot. But most prompt libraries are either overwhelming or lack creative direction. MonkeyAI focuses on quality and clarity. Each template comes with: A visual preview of the result The exact prompt structure Context tags for mood, style, or…

Hi HN, I'm the maker. I built this because I believe the biggest problem with most AI image tools is that they're a "black box." You get what the AI gives you, and if it's 90% right, you're stuck. My goal was to combine AI's speed with a creator's need for control. The core feature is the live editor that gives you the final say on everything. Under the hood, the workflow is designed to give you a better starting point than a simple text-to-image call. Here’s how it works: It first uses the YouTube API to find top-performing thumbnails for your topic. A Gemini model then analyzes those…

Hey HN, Since the launch of GPTs, I’ve struggled with integrating vast, up-to-date knowledge into a custom GPT and embedding it into websites and apps. After months of trial and error, we’ve developed an AI Search & Knowledge Assistant that solves this problem. Over the weekend, I built a demo assistant for Stripe that provides accurate answers, useful links, images in responses, cites sources, and keeps a thread history of your conversations. Here’s what’s included: - 3,700+ public documents full of useful info - 105+ million characters of rich knowledge - Powered by the ChatGPT-4o model…
