SMRY, AI-enhanced open source 12ft.io and removepaywall.com alternative

I was curious about how tools like 12ft.io worked, so I built an open-source tool to bypass paywalls and generate AI summaries of articles. Built with Next.js 13, Server Actions, shadcn/ui, and React Server Components, it's designed for efficiency and ease of use. Check it out and contribute on GitHub!

In plain words

SMRY is an open-source tool that bypasses article paywalls and generates AI summaries of the content. Built with Next.js 13 and modern web technologies, it functions as an alternative to services like 12ft.io and removepaywall.com. The tool is designed for efficiency and accessibility, allowing users to read paywalled articles and quickly understand their key points. The code is available on GitHub for contributions and review.

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15).

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.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
