Zingg – open-source entity resolution for single source of truth

Hello HN, I am Sonal, a data consultant from India. For the past few months(and years!), I have been working on an entity resolution tool to build a single source of truth for customers, suppliers, products and parts. Here is a short demo of Zingg in action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOabyZxN9b0 As a data consultant, I often struggled to build unified views of core entities on the datalake and the warehouse. Data spread across different systems has variations and consistencies making Customer 360, KYC, AML, segmentation, personalization and other analytics difficult. As I…

Zingg – open-source entity resolution for single source of truth launched on February 9, 2022 with 18 votes, #982 of 2,645 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

In plain words

Zingg is an open-source tool that identifies and merges duplicate records across databases to create unified customer, supplier, product, and parts data. It addresses the problem of inconsistent data spread across multiple systems that complicates analytics, compliance, and personalization efforts. The tool targets data consultants and organizations needing cost-effective entity resolution without expensive commercial master data management solutions.

    Hi HN, 8 months ago, I posted “Ask HN: I built it nobody came, what now?” and got a ton of (not very optimistic) feedback [1]. I took away 3 things: 1. The message wasn’t properly targeted 2. The onboarding experience was terrible. 3. Someone posted some advice to find leads which actually worked, yeah! So here we are. 8 months later. I unfortunately didn’t have a lot of time to put in the tool itself. But I improved the website, improved the onboarding, and got a paying customer who seems to really like the software. So here it is in its current form. Let me know what you think would make…

    Hi 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…
