    Hi HN — I’m an indie maker building Seedance AI. It helps people create short videos (and images) from text prompts and reference photos. I tried to keep it simple: fast templates, predictable credit pricing, and downloadable results. It’s still early, and I know there are rough edges. I’d really appreciate honest feedback on what feels useful, what feels confusing, and what I should improve first. Happy to answer technical or product questions.

    Hi HN, We’ve been working with Seedance 1.5 Pro, a next-generation AI video model focused on native audio-visual generation—where video, speech, and lip-sync are created together, not stitched together afterward. Unlike traditional pipelines that generate video first and add audio later, Seedance 1.5 Pro produces fully synchronized visuals and sound in a single pass, enabling more natural dialogue, emotion, and storytelling. Key capabilities: Native Audio-Visual Generation: Video, voice, lip movement, and sound effects are generated jointly for tighter sync and realism. Text / Image →…

  • 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…
