SQL-Configurable Alerting and Ticketing – Beyond Zapier and Zendesk
Hey HN Community, I'm excited to share something we have been working on for over the past few months: Locale.ai. Its heart and soul lie in its SQL-configurable nature. You can directly connect Locale to your databases, data warehouse, or any SaaS tool that you use internally and craft custom alerts and ticketing conditions with SQL queries. The issues also get resolved on their own as we can detect them through data. Before starting Locale, we worked across companies and managed tons of cron jobs with email reports, slack alerts for customer success operations and product. It’s a tool born…

In plain words
Locale.ai is an alerting and ticketing platform that connects directly to databases, data warehouses, and SaaS tools to create custom alerts and automated tickets using SQL queries. Built for operations and product teams, it automatically detects and resolves issues based on data conditions, replacing manual cron jobs and scattered notifications.

The problem: Parsing booking confirmation emails accurately. Built a parsing system that: - Distinguishes between connection hubs and actual destinations - Captures all segments (flights, hotels, trains) in the right order - Handles different booking site email formats - Creates complete itineraries automatically Happy to discuss more if anyone's interested :)

Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
