BemiDB – Open-source data warehouse with zero-ETL
Hi HN! We're Evgeny and Arjun, and we’re building a simpler way for startups to do data analytics. Since open-sourcing our Postgres read replica optimized for analytics (https://github.com/BemiHQ/BemiDB), we started hearing a familiar story. Teams would connect Postgres, feel relieved that they didn’t have to wrangle complex ETL pipelines, but then hit a wall as soon as they wanted to join data from HubSpot, Stripe, etc. They’d do hacky things like use Airbyte to sync data to their Postgres, so that it’d then auto sync to their BemiDB analytical database. We want to…

BemiDB – Postgres read replica optimized for analytics2024 · github.com · ▲209Hi HN! We're Evgeny and Arjun, and we’re building a better way to do analytics with Postgres. We love Postgres for its simplicity, power, and rich ecosystem. But engineers have to still get bogged down with heavyweight and expensive OLAP systems when connecting an analytics data stack. Postgres is amazing at OLTP queries, but not for OLAP queries (large data scans and aggregations). Even in this case, we’ve still heard from countless scaling startups that they still try to use only a read replica to run analytics workloads since they don’t want to deal with the data engineering complexity of…

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…

Tapflow 2.0▲1,125We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
