A zero-telemetry clipboard, color picker, and capture suite
I’m not a software engineer by trade, but I needed to make a number of screenshots for my job that all needed to be the exact same size. Every app I found wouldn't let me input or save a preset size to make my life easier, so I thought I'd try out using AI to help me build a simple app to solve that problem. It wasn't long before I started adding more and more useful features and ended up building the screenshot app I wanted to see in the world (CapSize - which now has local OCR and a ton of annotation tools). I had so much fun with it I started thinking of what other apps I could use for…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I’m not a software engineer by trade, but I needed to make a number of screenshots for my job that all needed to be the exact same size. Every app I found wouldn't let me input or save a preset size to make my life easier, so I thought I'd try out using AI to help me build a simple app to solve that problem. It wasn't long before I started adding more and more useful features and ended up building the screenshot app I wanted to see in the world (CapSize - which now has local OCR and a ton of annotation tools). I had so much fun with it I started thinking of what other apps I could use for work and hobbies, and that's how I built SmartClip (a clipboard history manager with local privacy masking) and HexStack (a color picker that stores your hex codes and a lot more). Everything is 100% offline with zero telemetry and no account required. I had no plans on sharing them with the world when I built them, but they helped me so much, I wondered if others might find them useful too. There's probably not a wide scale market for them, but I think developers, software engineers, UX/UI designers and testers could get a lot of use out of them. If this is something you might find useful, I'd love your thoughts and feedback on what I've created. There is a fully functional, free "Core" version of each app on the site you can test out and demo videos showing the "Pro" features. If you really love the Pro features, I've set up a 20% discount for this community: Use code HN20 at checkout. Thanks for taking a look!

Few weeks back i have been deleting my screenshots which gave me idea to this side project to declutter and organise my device screenshots. After several weekend it turn out to this. Since deep learning need lot of infra and i am running on budget, results might be slow but you will get results. Let me know in comments what can i do better or how can i do better.
Free, Fast Screenshot App for macOS with One-Click Screenshot Sharing6d ago · seenshot.app · ▲9Every day, I send a lot of screenshots. The default app on Mac is useless. I have to do so many steps: take a screenshot, save it, annotate it, save it as an image, then send it as an image in chats. It takes me a few minutes. But it should take just a few seconds. My second use case is sending feedback to my AI agents, and I’ve found they make much better edits when I provide comments and annotations on the screenshot. So I built this app. It lets me instantly capture screenshots, annotate them, and share them in one click. The same goes for any agent. It can do everything the native macOS…

It works by using open AIs new gpt-image API, image processing algorithms and some prompt engineering. Still has some limitations, but can already generate ready to use assets.

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…
