Checka – follow content beyond RSS – aggregate, filter, digest
Hi HN, Our team has developed an information processing assistant called Checka. Compared to many other information services, Checka focuses on allowing users to describe their target information using natural language and use LLM workflow to filter the content. Here is the simplified flowchart of information processing: https://images.checka.ai/images/HN_pipeline.png How Checka Works: - Data Collection: It gathers information from selected data sources using scrapers, APIs, and RSS feeds, and structures the data. - Filtering and Analysis: Through multiple LLM requests,…

Hi HN, Our team has developed an information processing assistant called Checka. Compared to many other information services, Checka focuses on allowing users to describe their target information using natural language and use LLM workflow to filter the content. Here is the simplified flowchart of information processing: https://images.checka.ai/images/HN_pipeline.png How Checka Works: - Data Collection: It gathers information from selected data sources using scrapers, APIs, and RSS feeds, and structures the data. - Filtering and Analysis: Through multiple LLM requests, it pre-filters and thoroughly analyzes all the information data objects to determine if they meet your specified "target information" criteria. - Digest: For data that meets the criteria, it uses generative capabilities to digest the information based on your chosen format, making it easy to quickly access the insights you need. As developers, we’ve all been there—building tools to tackle the endless stream of scattered information. But just simply aggregating content often ends up creating more noise. If you’ve ever faced hundreds of unread items in your RSS reader, you know the feeling. Therefore, we created Checka, hoping it would be useful to some of you. We would greatly appreciate any feedback as we know HN is the best crowd for it.

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 there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
