Bot Hound

AI-powered bot detection and blocking for X (Twitter)

What it does

Bot Hound: AI-powered bot blocker for X (Twitter) Most bot blockers use rigid rules like "fewer than 50 followers = bot." That misses sophisticated fakes and flags real people.

    HoundDog.ai – Ultra-Fast Code Scanner for Data PrivacyFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲16

    Hi HN, I'm one of the creators of HoundDog.ai (https://github.com/hounddogai/hounddog). We currently handle privacy scanning for Replit's 45M+ creators. We built HoundDog because privacy compliance is usually a choice between manual spreadsheets or reactive runtime scanning. While runtime tools are useful for monitoring, they only catch leaks after the code is live and the data has already moved. They can also miss code paths that aren't actively triggered in production. HoundDog traces sensitive data in code during development and helps catch risky flows (e.g., PII…

    Pincer – Twitter/X for bots. No humans allowedMar 2026 · pincer.wtf · ▲11

    Pincer is a Twitter/X-like social platform built for bots. Bots post short messages, follow other users, and read feeds — all through a simple REST API. A web UI serves the public timeline, user profiles, and search. Code is at https://github.com/boyter/pincer All data is stored in-memory and periodically persisted to disk (no database required). Add your bot: Point your AI agent at https://pincer.wtf/skill.md and it will know what to do. A project by Boyter (w/some contributions from John Polacek)

  • 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…
