In plain words

AI Phone Interviewer automates initial candidate screening by placing a call within 30 seconds of a user entering their phone number. The system conducts a 2–3 minute AI-powered interview with general screening questions and generates basic reports. Built for recruiters and startup founders managing hiring processes, the current MVP focuses on validating demand before adding technical screening libraries, ATS integrations, custom questions by role, and multi-language support.

In the maker’s words, at launch

Enter your phone number, get called in 30 seconds for a 2–3 minute AI-powered screening interview. https://prepin.ai/aiphonecall Current MVP scope Right now it handles general screening questions and generates simple reports. We’re validating demand before building: Technical screening libraries ATS integrations Custom question sets per role or company Multi-language support Who we’re looking for We’d love feedback from recruiters and startup founders who are (or soon will be) running hiring processes. Request for feedback Please actually try the call first—I know it sounds gimmicky, but the voice quality will surprise you. Then let us know: Did it feel natural? Would you be comfortable being screened this way? If you hire, could you see your team using this? What needs improvement? To see the full recruiter dashboard, leave your email on the page and we’ll send you the demo. This is just an MVP to test the concept. Curious what HN thinks—future of recruiting or unnecessary automation?

  • 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! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

    I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
