I made a tool to receive alerts when answers change
Hi HN, I've created a tool called Alertfor that scours the open web to find the most relevant and up-to-date answers for complex questions. You can set up alerts to receive continuous updates whenever there are changes or new information becomes available for a given question. I used an agent framework (Autogen + Sibyl) to collect and answer questions, and I schedule a Celery job to run the same query continuously every six hours. I would love to hear your feedback, suggestions, or anything else you’d like to say. Note: I'm submitting this for a second time; I'm not sure if this is against…

Alertfor is a tool that searches the open web to find and monitor answers to complex questions. Users set up alerts for topics of interest and receive notifications whenever new information or changes are detected. The system uses an agent framework to gather and synthesize answers, running continuous searches every six hours to keep information current. It is designed for anyone who needs to stay updated on evolving answers to specific questions.

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
