I made a tool to find the best web hosting based on your needs
Hey, Recently, I was blindsided by my web hosting plan renewing at almost double its initial cost. This unpleasant surprise prompted me to create Match My Hosting. As a hobby coder, I built this straightforward tool in my spare time using dead simple PHP, HTML, and JS with the massive help of ChatGPT-4. The tool currently includes around 30 providers with 120 different packages. It uses Trustpilot reviews to guide the recommendations, ensuring you choose a host that's not only technically suitable but also well-regarded by users. And to avoid any surprises, it also clearly displays both the…

wsgrokJan 2026 · wsgrok.com · ▲7I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.

Three months ago I shared OpenPanel with you all. Got so many encouraging comments then but one feature that was missing/undocumented was self-hosting. I just released it today and thought I would share it here. Keep hosting! Old post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40432213
DotComBuddy – Generate and check domains with AI in one go2025 · dotcombuddy.com · ▲8I tend to use AI to brainstorm domain names, but I kept wasting time pasting each idea into Namecheap to see if they were available. So I built DotComBuddy - it generates ideas (using DeepSeek V3 - switched from GPT-4o after realizing quality was just as good) and checks availability in real time via Name.com’s API. Built with Next.js and Vercel’s AI SDK, the app gives you a table of available domains with their price. 10 free searches to try it out, then $9/year (what I’d pay to never do this manually again). Sharing this for anyone else tired of switching tabs to check domains. Happy…
Integration of ChatGPT+Stable Diffusion+Eleven Labs APIs and Hosting2023 · aidev.codes · ▲9Hello so I finally released the new version of aidev.codes. It is extremely alpha, has not been thoroughly tested at this point. Its quite different from the previous version. The new aidev.codes: - is buggy but actually works (compared to the old version) - has a ChatGPT-style interface (and uses the chatgpt-turbo model which is actually better than the other models for code) - integrates the stability.ai API to automatically generate images - can create a simple but fully customized and interactive web page and instantly host it for you - can optionally host your page on a custom subdomain…
Agenthost – Host and monetize your custom GPT on your website2024 · agenthost.ai · ▲5Hey folks, I wanted to share Agenthost.ai -- a platform I built that makes it easy to create and host custom agents on your website with payment processing through Stripe built right in. I know everyone is excited about the OpenAI's Appstore like GPTStore coming this week but I'm more excited about a more web-like model. A world where you can create your agent, put it on your website, decide how much you want to charge for certain features, and then let others come and discover it. No need to worry about the platform deciding to compete with you and using your data to train its models. So…
I built a tool to make AI recommend you (and I'm conflicted about it)Dec 2025 · firstclick.so · ▲7So I've been obsessed with a weird question for the past 6 months, what happens to SEO when everyone starts asking ChatGPT for recommendations instead of Googling? The answer, apparently, is chaos. And maybe opportunity? I built FirstClick because I noticed something strange. My previous startup was getting zero traffic from AI assistants, but our competitor (objectively worse product, sorry not sorry) was getting mentioned by Claude and Perplexity constantly. It drove me crazy. So I reverse engineered why. Turns out there's a whole new game being played and most founders don't even know it…
