I built an AI business ideas generator by combining existing solutions
Hi HN, I’ve always been fascinated by how many successful businesses are born from combining existing ideas in new ways. From Apple’s smartphone blending tech elements to Airbnb rethinking travel. Innovation often lies in the overlap. As a side project, I built onlift.co, a free AI Business Idea Generator, a tool that helps you discover interesting combinations of existing ideas. Powered by AI, it generates fresh, unexpected synergies that could inspire your next venture. Here’s why I made it: - I noticed how often I got stuck trying to brainstorm startup ideas. - Many brainstorming tools…

In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN, I’ve always been fascinated by how many successful businesses are born from combining existing ideas in new ways. From Apple’s smartphone blending tech elements to Airbnb rethinking travel. Innovation often lies in the overlap. As a side project, I built onlift.co, a free AI Business Idea Generator, a tool that helps you discover interesting combinations of existing ideas. Powered by AI, it generates fresh, unexpected synergies that could inspire your next venture. Here’s why I made it: - I noticed how often I got stuck trying to brainstorm startup ideas. - Many brainstorming tools focus on categories, but not on creative intersections. - I wanted a tool that makes you think, “Why didn’t I think of that?” This is for: - Makers hunting for their next project. - Founders looking for pivots or fresh perspectives. - Anyone curious about how AI can boost creativity. I’d love feedback on how useful you find the ideas it generates and whether there’s a feature you’d want to see. Let me know what combinations surprise you most! Looking forward to your thoughts and suggestions. Cheers, Glen P.S. Of course, coming up with ideas is just the starting point. Building, validating, and scaling a business is where the real challenge lies. But hey, ideas are fun to explore, and you never know which one might spark your next big thing!

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…
