What it does

Double-tap and your Handler reads the thread on your screen, works out what you'd write next, and types it at your cursor in your voice. Runs on your own PC. It never sends.

No prompt to type, nothing to say out loud. Put your cursor in any text field, double-tap the hotkey, and your Handler reads what's actually on your screen, works out what you'd write next, and types it there in your voice. You edit it, you send it. It never sends anything itself. Ghostwriter is part of the desktop app; it reads the screen locally. Any app: your mail client, Slack, a browser form, a comment box. Only for the scheduling cross-check — everything else works without one. Put your cursor where the words go. No prompt, no dictation. Double-tap the hotkey and your Handler captures the screen around that cursor — the thread above it, the question beside it, the…from myhandler.ai

    A few months ago, I was developing a bookmark manager for https://fika.bar. I needed a way to fetch metadata, screenshots, and markdown content from websites. Since Fika is a donation-based product, I couldn't afford any of the providers out there, so I decided to build instead of buy. "Easy," I thought. But weeks later, I found myself building data pipelines, implementing proxy rotation schemes, and dealing with TLS fingerprinting. Not fun—and definitely not how I wanted to spend my time. My product was a bookmark manager, not a data extraction service, yet most of my efforts…

  • 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…
