Every week, the people who actually know their field, in venture, healthcare, energy, defence and public policy, talk for hundreds of hours on podcasts. PodInsightHQ’s AI listens to all of it, finds where they agree and where they disagree, and lets you hear them say it in their own words. Every episode published since January 2025, growing by around 100 episodes a week. We started with technology and venture, and are now adding healthcare, energy, markets, defence, brands and public policy. Built by two founders directing AI agents, for under $3,000 of cloud credit. It runs under $3 a day when idle. The whole system runs in AWS in Frankfurt. It costs close to nothing when idle and…from podinsighthq.com

PodText.ai – Search anything said on a podcast, highlight text to play2023 · podtext.ai · ▲219Hi HN, wanted to share a project that I’ve been working on recently. PodText allows users to find anything said on a podcast. You can also listen and share clips to a specific part of the podcast audio, simply by highlighting the text of that part. Currently there are just over 25k podcast episodes and I’m adding a lot more in the coming weeks (yes my GPU bill is painful). In order to monetize it, I’m building a sponsorship database to help sponsors find podcasts and vice versa. This will be sold in the form of a $99/month “PodText Business” subscription. I bet I could charge a lot more…

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
