What it does

Lawyers are putting client data at risk by pasting contracts into public AI models like ChatGPT. We built a 100% free, client-side text sanitizer that instantly masks names, emails, dollar amounts, and dates before you use AI. No data leaves your browser.

    Legal Eyes – Turn casual text into legalese with one click2025 · legaleyes.uk · ▲5

    Hey HN, I built a Chrome extension called *Legal Eyes* that rewrites your casual messages into sharp, professional legal language. Use cases: - Freelancers chasing late invoices - Founders dealing with vague contract terms - Anyone trying to sound more serious or formal (without being a lawyer) No prompt engineering, no copy-pasting — it sits in your browser, and converts selected text with a click. I built it using React, Supabase (for auth and usage tracking), OpenAI (for the rewriting), and deployed via Vercel. I launched this to help the little guys when they need a stronger voice. I…

    Redactify – macOS/iOS app to redact sensitive data before using LLMsApr 2026 · ▲5

    Hi HN, I built Redactify, a native macOS app that automatically scrubs sensitive personal and financial data, faces, and metadata from documents and images. The motivation: I frequently use Claude and ChatGPT to analyze invoices and contracts, but I hated the friction of sanitizing them first. I also didn't want to blindly trust the "we don't train on API data" promises of model providers when dealing with actual client data. How it works under the hood: Redactify flattens the document and permanently destroys the underlying text and EXIF metadata. It runs entirely on-device using Apple's…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

    A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
