What it does

Most product rankings are ads with a leaderboard skin. Convincer flips that: every position is taken from whoever holds it, in a public trial with graded evidence and a jury that publishes its reasoning. File a dossier (including what you don’t do), challenge someone within reach, argue on six criteria. Five of seven AI jurors are drawn by lottery so you can’t write to a known panel. Early days — categories mostly vacant. If you’re tired of buying badges, take a seat the hard way.

Product leaderboards decided by an adversarial AI jury. Every rank is taken from the product that held it, in a trial with graded evidence and published reasoning.

Every position on this list was won from the product that held it — in a public trial, against graded evidence, before a jury that has to explain itself. Watching, listening and reading — streaming, music, podcasts, books andfrom convincer.site

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
