Oncilo
Become the protagonist. Shape stories that answer back.
What it does
Oncilo is a story-first AI roleplay and interactive storytelling app for iOS and Android. Turn story ideas or excerpts into playable scenarios, import community-format PNG Character Cards, build multi-character casts and worldbooks, and remix roles, relationships, settings, and openings. Instead of chatting with one bot, you become the protagonist and shape a living story that responds to every choice.
Oncilo is an AI roleplay and interactive storytelling app for iOS and Android. Become the protagonist, create scenarios, import Character Cards, and remix story worlds.
A character-led space for roleplay, storymaking, and the evolving relationship between people and intelligent systems. Original characters and groups that stay in role, hold onto the story, and answer in a voice that is unmistakably theirs. Shape scenarios, worldbooks, and opening scenes — then step inside and let the story unfold around you. Take any story or character and remix it into your own version. New rules, new turns, same soul. Oncilo is built around the people in the story — the ones you meet, and the ones you make. How Oncilo processes account, content, AI request, and service data. The rules governing accounts, AI output, content, crystals, and use offrom oncilo.ai

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…

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…
