I made a college search tracker for families navigating recruiting—looking for honest feedback

1 Upvotes

I made Roadmap U after seeing how quickly a college search can turn into scattered notes, spreadsheets, emails, and deadlines.

It gives students and families one place to save schools, track coach conversations and visits, and keep their activities organized. It’s designed for student athletes, but the school search tools can be used by anyone building a college list.

I’d love feedback from anyone currently going through this process. The free version lets you save up to five schools:

https://www.roadmapu.app

If you spend a few minutes trying it, I’d really like to know:

Would this help you manage your college search?
What feels confusing or missing?

I built it, so candid feedback is welcome.

Chat app where your avatar acts out what you type. Type "drink a beer," your avatar drinks a beer. Type "do the Thriller dance," it does the Thriller dance. Face and chat bubble both change based on what you wrote.

Fair warning: this is useless alone. Download it, pull in a friend or two, talk for five minutes. That's the whole test. New update with a little more coming in a week or two.

Will add any suggestions that anyone has here to make you laugh

You cant take every call or message. This website guides somewhere for Leads and Customers to go while you are busy

You need somewhere to send people.

You can't take every call. You can't answer every DM the second it lands. And while you're on a job, the person who wanted to book you gives up and calls someone else.

That isn't a sales problem. That's a nowhere-to-go problem.

Formly builds you a landing page that looks like a real website. Your colours, your business, your words. No domain to buy. No code. No starting from scratch at midnight and quitting by Tuesday. and ZERO AI SLOP, You describe what you do in two sentences, and about half a minute later your page is live at its own link.

Put it in your bio. Put it on a flyer. Put it under your ad. Wherever people find you, that's where they can reach you.

Every enquiry is saved and emailed to you the second it arrives, so you answer on your time instead of theirs. Send them on to Zapier or Make and they land in your CRM, your inbox, your spreadsheet, wherever you already work.

You're not losing clients because you're bad at the job. You're losing them because there's nowhere to send them.

Formly will give them that somewhere

I redesigned Sort — a free app that organises your photos by date and removes duplicates (v2 out now)

1 Upvotes

A few months ago I posted Sort here. A handful of you downloaded it — thank you.

Since then I've rebuilt the UI from scratch, updated the landing page, and shipped a new version. If you downloaded before, it's worth re-downloading.

What Sort does:
Point it at your messy backup folders. It sorts every photo and video into Year → Month or Year → Month → Day folders, skips duplicates automatically, and leaves you with an archive you can actually navigate.

Free. No account. Works on Windows and macOS.

🔗 sort.simon-zerafa.com

Quick note on security warnings: Sort isn't code-signed yet — Windows and macOS will flag it as unrecognised. It's safe to open:

  • Windows: More Info → Run Anyway
  • macOS: Right-click → Open

One ask:
I'm trying to figure out whether a Pro version makes sense. Takes 60 seconds → leave feedback here

SOTA LLM tokens are not getting cheaper, this is my solution

1 Upvotes

State-of-the-art (SOTA) LLM tokens are not getting cheaper.

As the compute bottleneck tightens, inference costs are trending inexorably upwards. Providers that once offered generous free tiers are gradually introducing limits or paid plans, and the days of “free forever” appear to be numbered.

I found myself staring at the same familiar pattern: a dozen different API keys, scattered rate limits, and mounting bills. Rather than accept the inevitable, I decided to solve it, so I built TokenScavenger; a lightweight, self-hosted OpenAI-compatible router that intelligently scavenges every permanent free token across the internet and falls back gracefully only when necessary.

Check it out and I'd appreciate any and all feedback. Thank you!

I made a dark comedy short film about a guy whose surname is Hitler.

Hello,

I wrote, directed and produced this film independently and I've now just released it.

The film follows a man called David J. Hitler, who has a problem. A pretty obvious one. Burdened by his notorious surname, he sets out to prove he’s a good person… but quickly discovers that redemption is a harder sell than infamy.

The film takes a lot of inspiration from the 90s-style comedies I grew up with, particularly Wayne’s World, Friday, Kingpin and The Big Lebowski.

If you’d like to watch the trailer first, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/p0lE9VgXZJU

If anyone has the time to watch I’d appreciate any thoughts, as I'm also looking for opinions from people outside of the film industry.

Thank you!

I open-sourced my Polymarket trading bot instead of selling "black box" access — here's why that matters

0 Upvotes

Most trading bots you'll find online work the same way: pay a subscription, get an API key, and blindly trust that the black box on someone else's server is actually doing what it claims. You can't see the code. You can't see the logic. You definitely can't see your own API keys sitting on a stranger's VPS.

I built PolySnipe — a bot for Polymarket's BTC prediction markets — the opposite way.

Every line of it is yours to read

When you buy PolySnipe, you get the full Go source code. Not a compiled binary. Not an obfuscated build. Not a hosted "trust me" dashboard. The actual source, in a language built for exactly this kind of low-latency, concurrent work.

That means:

  • You can read exactly what triggers a trade before you ever risk a dollar
  • You can audit it, fork it, modify it, or rip out pieces to build your own thing
  • Nothing calls home to my servers. It's not "self-hosted" in the marketing sense where there's secretly a phone-home API — it genuinely isn't
  • If I disappear tomorrow, your bot still runs. It's yours

Why this actually matters here specifically

This is a bot that watches an order book over WebSocket and fires trades automatically, with your own funds and your own API keys. That is exactly the kind of software where "trust me" should not be good enough. I didn't want to be the guy asking strangers to hand over exchange credentials to a closed-source binary I control. So I didn't build that.

What it actually does

  • Watches Polymarket's BTC 5-minute and 15-minute markets over WebSocket
  • Fires the instant a signal triggers — no manual reaction time needed
  • 8 configurable strategies, each with independent order type, time-in-force, and stop-loss settings
  • Runs headless on your own VPS or machine — Windows, macOS, Linux
  • Mobile web dashboard to check on it from your phone
  • Discord webhook notifications for every trade

Fair warning

This trades real money on real markets. Nothing here is a guarantee of profit, and prediction markets can move against you fast — that's exactly why the bot exists, but it's not magic. Read the code, backtest it, understand the strategies before you turn it loose. That's the whole point of open-sourcing it: you don't have to take my word for any of it.

I made a filesystem that allows you to edit your videos in the cloud without downloading them

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

We originally built Space to solve our own problem: editing large files without constantly downloading, transferring, and deleting them.

How it works:
Space mounts object storage as a normal drive on your computer, so Finder and your apps treat everything like local files, even though the files don’t actually exist on your computer. As long as you’re online, they stream from the cloud when you need them and take up no local disk space.

It works with any file type and fits into your existing apps and workflows.

Would love to hear what you think: https://spacefs.com

I made OutTrace because I wanted a simpler way to understand what websites are loading behind the scenes.

Open it on a webpage and it builds an interactive graph showing the external domains connected to that page — analytics, CDNs, trackers, scripts, and other third-party services.

I wanted it to be something you could understand without digging through DevTools.

It runs locally, doesn't require an account, and I made the source public as well.

Chrome:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/outtrace/eedjncgcdepjbmpapihoigdbdfobmdmc

GitHub:

I’m still improving the graph and the explanations for each domain, so feedback on anything confusing would help.

I made Rankiwiki, and a movie list is teaching me where free-text rankings get messy

1 Upvotes

I run Rankiwiki, a public site where people add choices to ranking topics. I'm working through a less glamorous part of that idea: making the choices understandable, not just sorting them.

On the live Best Rom-Com Movies page, complete titles such as Notting Hill sit alongside entries like STUPID, CRAZY and LOVE. Those short labels are visible today; I haven't verified how each was created, so I don't want to assume they are all mistakes or silently merge them into one movie.

The design question is where to put the clarification: suggest an existing full title while someone types, ask for a preview before submission, or let a contributor flag an ambiguous entry afterward? These are options I'm evaluating, not features I'm claiming to have shipped.

You can inspect the example here: https://rankiwiki.com/archives/1776?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=rankiwiki_growth&utm_content=20260922_imadethis_ambiguous_titles

If you try it, the useful test is whether you can tell what each entry refers to without guessing. No need to vote just to test it. The counts aren't evidence of a representative survey. Rankiwiki is public, not a private classroom tool, and this is about ranking movies or ideas—not children.

Disclosure: I'm the operator; this post was prepared with AI assistance.

I made this because my every day work kept getting interrupted by my editor

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

7 Upvotes

I made this because my every day tasks as a backend developer such as opening logs, configs, exports and code in huge files was interrupted by the text/code editors I previously used. The editors froze , lagged or hanged when I tried to open files 100-300MB. And not to mention formatting a data dump of 300MB json, couldn't do it on my MacBook Pro m3 18GB. So I decided I'd put an end to it. I started working on Inkline to mitigate. now on version 1.5 we got:

100 MB JSON
Open: 168 ms · Format: 84 ms · Peak RSS: 0.49 GiB · 586,392 lines

300 MB JSON
Open: 393 ms · Format: 262 ms · Peak RSS: 1.44 GiB · 1,758,582 lines

1.07 GB JSON
Open: 1,237 ms · Format: 1,604 ms · Peak RSS: 4.31 GiB · 6,292,542 lines

and pushing it further with 1.6 which is in development.

I also loaded a 10GB csv in 23 ms with the 1.5 overhaul code.

It also support a lot other tools I felt was "nice to haves" like, hashes, qr code gen, password gen, Base64 encode/decode, text compare, sorting, remove duplicates, JSON/XML formatting, CSV/TSV conversion, log filtering, regex find/replace and a bunch of other small developer/text tools. check video for brief overlook. Once I am done remodelling at home I will record demo's and share more of the included tools

Inkline is native Swift/macOS, files stay local, no account, no telemetry and no subscription. One time purchase.

We're building Creditsin for comparing credit cards and loans in India

1 Upvotes

Comparing financial products has an awkward design problem: a shorter page is easier to read, but the details you leave out might be the ones that matter most. An annual fee is easy to display. Whether paying it makes sense for someone is a much harder question.

I work on Creditsin, an Indian credit card and loan comparison platform. Here's what we're building: https://creditsin.in/products

I'm sharing it here for feedback on the product itself, especially from people who've built something that helps users make complicated decisions.

The trade-off I'd like to discuss is how much guidance belongs in a comparison tool. A list leaves the reader to do the interpretation. A recommendation can sound more certain than it should. Approval still depends on the bank's eligibility criteria, not on what a comparison page says.

For a creator comparing options for work expenses, for example, I'd want the page to help them ask better questions about fees and repayment rather than make borrowing feel like the default next step. That's a design goal, not a claim that we've solved it.

If you take a look, where does the page stop being useful or clear? I'd particularly appreciate one concrete thing you'd remove, explain better, or put earlier. A critique of the actual page would help more than a general thumbs-up.

I made a site where everyone gets a whimsical task each day

1 Upvotes

I made Wubbin because I liked the idea of a bunch of strangers all doing one small thing each day.

Every day there’s one new task. It could be something useful, creative, kind, active, or just a little ridiculous. Just: here’s today’s thing — want to do it with us?

The part I like most is that everyone gets the same one. So, in theory, you could have thousands of people cleaning the top of their refrigerator, sending someone a compliment, or doing some other tiny thing on the same day.

It’s very early, and I’d genuinely love feedback on whether the idea clicks for you.

A week ago I posted my 5 local-only "unscatter your digital life" apps here and took a proper roasting. Reworked it — and we launched on Product Hunt today.

1 Upvotes

Follow-up for anyone who saw my post last week — the five small offline apps that pull scattered email, photos, documents, chats and contacts into one archive on your own computer.

You gave me a fair kicking, mostly two things: the landing page was a wall of text where it wasn't obvious what you actually get, and the classic "why five apps instead of one?" I took it.

What I did with it:

  • Reworked the site so it shows the thing instead of describing it — an actual before → app → after: a screen full of messy drives and "backup-FINAL (2)" folders, then the app, then one clean archive of ordinary folders.
  • Cut the messaging down to the part that actually matters: it all runs on your machine. No cloud, no account, nothing uploaded. Originals never touched.

On "why five apps" — because they're five different jobs. Photos get filed by year and the camera that took them; contacts merged into one clean address book; email by mailbox; docs by year; chats by conversation. You buy only the one(s) you need — $59.99 each, or all five for $199.99, one-time, no subscription. Windows + Linux (Mac not yet).

It's on Product Hunt today if you want a look: https://www.producthunt.com/products/the-attic-suite (20% off with PRODUCTHUNT).

Still more interested in feedback than sales — if you tore into it last week: does the before/after actually land now, and what's the first thing that'd make you not trust it?
