What it does
1Percent is a self-improvement app that turns your daily discipline into a cinematic RPG experience. Instead of boring checklists, you level up real-life stats like Discipline, Focus, and Strength by completing daily missions, locking in for deep focus sessions, and tracking nutrition with AI-powered food analysis. An AI coach adapts to your progress and pushes you to stay consistent. Built for Gen Z who want to feel like they're actually evolving — not just checking boxes.

- DADayQuant- an app that helps you quantify and analyze your daily life2015 · ▲5
I showed this to HN a few weeks ago and have updated it a great deal since then. This app allows you to grade your overall day on a scale of 1-100, as well as on the criteria of productivity, social interaction and physical activity. You can then view your results on a long-term chart. There is also a program which analyzes the frequency of different grades. Check it out and let me know what you think! The website is DayQuant.com and it is on the Google Play store as DayQuant.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
