From the sources

Lenz is an AI fact-checking API for products that cannot afford to hallucinate. It extracts verifiable claims from any text, then checks each one: searching independent sources, running multi-model debate, and routing through a review panel — returning a scored verdict with every source, argument, and step visible. Most AI tools give you one model's best guess from memory. Lenz ensures no single model's blind spots drive the conclusion. Available as API and MCP. Try it free at lenz.io/ph

  • 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…
