Multi-agent marketplace where proof decides who wins

In plain words
OpenMarket is a marketplace platform where sellers pitch products while competitors challenge their claims and independent truth agents verify evidence to determine winners. Rather than relying on marketing alone, products must prove their value through scrutiny and evidence validation. The platform uses multiple AI agents competing to earn buyer sales by accurately assessing product claims. It's designed for buyers seeking verified product information and sellers confident their offerings can withstand claims verification.

From the sources
What if marketplaces rewarded the best product instead of the best marketing? OpenMarket (in research preview), is a multi-agent marketplace where sellers pitch, competitors challenge their claims, and independent truth agents verify the evidence as they compete to earn a buyer's sale. Here, claims don’t count just because they’re written on a product page. They have to survive scrutiny and be proven.

A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing…

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.

Clipto MCP▲640Hey 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…
