What it does
space ocr turns photos of receipts, invoices and forms into a table you can query. Drop them into a folder in the app or send them to the API, and each page becomes a row you can filter and sort. Every value shows where it came from. 100 free pages a month.
A field extraction API with built-in verification. Send a document photo with a list of field names — one POST returns typed JSON. No training, no processor setup, no SDK. Every value carries the box / quad it was read from (coordinates come from the OCR pass, not the language model), and values that fail the cross-check come back on an explicit review list — a work list, not a bare confidence sco
Schema-shaped JSON — source coordinates on every value, and a review list when something doesn't check out. Name your fields, and where you already know the shape a value must have, say that too. Typed JSON comes back with coordinates and flags on every value, and this exact call runs as-is. curl - X POST https : //api.space-ocr.com/ocr/fields \ - H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ - H "Content-Type: application/json" \ - d '{ "image": "https://example.com/receipt.jpg", "imageType": "url", "fields": [ { "name": "store_name" }, { "name": "invoice_no", "pattern": "^[0-9]{6}$" }, { "name": "total", "type": "number", "required": true } ] }' response 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16…from space-ocr.com

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

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…
