LinkPeek

What it does

Most OG preview tools only work on live URLs. LinkPeek works on localhost too — no ngrok, no deploys. Paste any URL and instantly see how it looks on WhatsApp, Twitter, LinkedIn, Slack, Discord, and Facebook. Built for developers, designers, and marketers who are tired of deploying just to check a meta tag.

Preview how your links look on WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X, Slack, Discord and Instagram. Test Open Graph tags, Twitter cards and localhost URLs without ngrok.

Test WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X, Slack, Discord, Instagram, Twitter Card, and localhost link previews from one URL. Paste a URL above and I'll scan it across 7 platforms. I'll tell you exactly what's wrong and give you copy-paste fixes. Most link preview tools show raw tags or generic cards. LinkPeek renders high-fidelity UI mockups for WhatsApp, X, LinkedIn, Slack, Discord, and Instagram while you are still building. LinkPeek can help you test Open Graph previews, OG images, Twitter cards, LinkedIn previews, and WhatsApp link previews while your site is still running on localhost. No public deploy just to see whether a share card breaks. The fact that it works on localhost without needing ngrok…from getlinkpeek.com

  Metacheck – preview how any link appears on social media and chat apps2025 · metacheck.appstate.co · ▲165

  Hey HN, I’ve been an indie hacker for a while, but I haven’t had much success with my past projects. Recently, I came across Marc Lou’s advice about building free tools just for fun, so I decided to give it a shot. I built Metacheck, a simple tool that lets you preview how any link will appear on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Whatsapp, Telegram, and other platforms. No API keys, no setup—just paste a link and see the preview. Why I built this I often ran into issues where social platforms displayed broken or unexpected link previews. Debugging Open Graph meta tags was annoying, so I made a tool…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
