Alexandria, free open source news aggregation and classification suite
I've always felt it a bit hard to grasp how far news reach and all. Because I'm also a bit behind on python, I decided to build something from scratch. It's really simple: docker compose, micro services connected to some very basic data pipelines using rabbitMQ, and some local NLP. The NLP portion is a bit slow as it's pure CPU and doesn't leverage GPU/NPE if you have them. The tool offers you to define your own "labels" and "relations", which are then picked up by the local NLP models to assign it to news articles. Standard, there are only a few included. But the goal is to have your…

Hey HN, It will be more of a "How I released my API without managing a website, servers, users, and payments. With 0$ up-front cost" Over the past year, I have come up with a plan of how I could release my own product without having to deal with managing users and/or dealing with payment processing. It is a 3 steps procedure: 1. Make an API that solves a problem 2. Deploy it with a serverless architecture 3. Distribute through an API Marketplace That took me about 2-3 days to develop an API using Flask, deploy it via Zappa on AWS, and release through RapidAPI. Source code of API:…
Real-time system that tracks how news spreads across 200k websitesNov 2025 · yandori.io · ▲256I built a system that monitors ~200,000 news RSS feeds in near real-time and clusters related articles to show how stories spread across the web. It uses Snowflake’s Arctic model for embeddings and HNSW for fast similarity search. Each “story cluster” shows who published first, how fast it propagated, and how the narrative evolved as more outlets picked it up. Would love feedback on the architecture, scaling approach, and any ways to make the clusters more accurate or useful. Live demo: https://yandori.io/news-flow/
I built a tech news aggregator that works the way my brain doesOct 2025 · deadstack.net · ▲188An honest to god, non-algorithmic reverse chrono list of tech news that passes my signal-to-noise tests, updated hourly. A lightweight a page design as I've been able to keep; simple, clean, fast. No commercial features or aspirations - this is a passion project, something I've been fooling around with on and off for decades. There's a "Top" view too with an LLM edited front page & summary, and categorized views for a large number of topics - see the Directory. A few more buried features to explore, but the fundamental use case is pop in, scan, exit - fast and concise. Your feedback would be…
Newsful.ai – AI-Powered News Digest Platform2025 · newsful.ai · ▲9I got tired of reading clickbait articles and seeing irrelevant ads. So I pulled in a few RSS feeds to create a news digest using OpenAI 4o-mini for summarisation. Appreciate any feedback you'all might have. PS: News-summarisation may have been done to death, but I'm a UI noob, so I'm using this project to learn some.

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
