What it does

We believe that AI can and should be used to build more connections between virtual and real world. That's why we focused our app on AI generating and previewing in AR of real objects — not fictional.

We are committed to constantly improving the quality of the models, reducing the price and adding new features.

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them.
