What it does

Most AI apps waste 70% of their budget. Wrong models. No caching. Payment fees that destroy micropayments. P402.shop: Compare 50+ AI APIs (GPT-5.2, Claude Opus 4.5, Gemini 3, more). Find the right model for your use case. See costs explode from 100 to 1M users. Free. P402.io: Accept micropayments without Stripe's $0.30 killing you. 1% flat fee. Built on x402—HTTP's payment standard, finally working. Vibe-coded apps break at scale. Optimized ones don't.

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
