VETO

Think before you spend.

VETO launched on August 30, 2026.

What it does

VETO is a decision-intelligence tool for purchases. Instead of simply asking whether you can afford something, VETO helps you evaluate whether buying it actually makes sense. Enter a purchase, consider its cost, usage, affordability and value, and get a clear decision with reasoning behind it. No account, no financial data stored, no complicated spreadsheets. Just a better way to think before you spend.

Should you buy it? VETO is a free purchase decision calculator that helps you evaluate affordability, value, timing and cost per use before you spend.

VETO is a free purchase decision calculator designed to help you think before you spend. It evaluates affordability, value, timing and cost per use so you can make a more informed purchase decision. Instead of asking only whether you can afford something, VETO helps you consider whether buying it makes sense for your current financial situation and how much value you are likely to get from the purchase. Enter the details of a purchase and VETO evaluates the decision using your income, expenses, expected usage and ownership period. The result provides a simple BUY, WAIT or DON'T BUY outcome. VETO is a decision-making tool, not a financial advisor. Your purchase information is processed…from veto.vartomlabs.com

  • Hey 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…
