What it does
Paguely flips book discovery on its head. Instead of scrolling covers and blurbs, you answer a few mood questions and get a cryptic, atmospheric clue about your next read, no title, no cover. You commit blind, then it reveals. Beyond the reveal: a real reading life built in. Spine-view shelf, streak tracking, a mood-based reading DNA profile, and a community feed for sharing reveals. Built with Flutter, Supabase, and OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini.
Discover your next read through mood-matched clues. Answer a few questions, get cryptic hints about a perfect book, and reveal the title only when you
Answer a few questions about your mood. Get matched to a perfect book. The title stays hidden until you're ready to meet it. No blurb to skim. No cover to judge. No star rating to talk you out of it. Just a feeling, four clues, and the small thrill of saying yes to something you cannot see yet. Set in a city that never sleeps, but everyone is hiding something. The kind of book you finish at 2am and stare at the ceiling after. Set in a city that never sleeps, but everyone is hidingfrom paguely.app

An open-source e-book reader for conversational reading with an LLM2025 · github.com · ▲86Hi HN! I've been working on BookWith, an open-source e-book reader that integrates AI as your reading companion. The problem: Traditional e-readers are passive. When you encounter something unclear, you have to context-switch to search for it. Your highlights and notes remain isolated, and you can't easily connect ideas across different books. My solution: BookWith embeds an AI that maintains full context of what you're reading. It features: - Context-aware AI chat: Ask questions about the current page/chapter and get instant answers - AI podcast generation: Automatically converts book…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey 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…
