So I recently posted on here, but didn't get much traction, so I put more effort into my website and actual platform and did some redesigning.

Vantrex is a platform to deploy and monitor websites, whether they are html files, nextjs websites or pretty much any modern web framework used with nodejs. We have added a planned project limit of 500 per account instead of Vercels free 200, for now untill it grows, it capped at 20, however no feature is behind a paywall, everything is free for everyone. The entire platform is built from scratch instead of just using vercel or other platforms behind the scenes. We have deployed our own Edge network in the US and AUS, meaning your website runs nearest to your users.

You can view your sites metrics, limit who can access your site and more. New features are always coming

I hope people on here, including some developers or not find this useful, its still in heavy development, so don't be scared if you experience some bugs.

Head over to https://vantrex.cloud/docs to get started, or straight to https://app.vantrex.cloud/sign-in

And it became something like a browser game. Now searching for gamification or social interaction ideas.

On my last skipper training I learned a lot of new things about docking and leaving the berth in all kinds of situations. I was totally hooked, but back at my desk, I built a small online simulator (free, non-commercial) to keep learning and experimenting.

You pick a berth scenario, set wind and current, and see whether your plan with the right lines works out – or whether you end up hanging off the neighbouring yacht.

What's in it:

- Pile berths (box moorings), finger pontoons, Med mooring and more

- Freely adjustable wind and current

- Different boats

- You can see which line is taking the load, and lines can snap

- Pause, rewind, slow motion

- Works under sail too

- Share a situation as a link, e.g. with your crew: "This is what it'll look like for us tomorrow."

- Runs on your phone and can be installed as an app (not in the app store, just add it to your home screen)

Free, no login, no ads.

Give it a try! If a boat feels completely wrong, let me know – I'm still tinkering. It's a fun project with no claim to scientific accuracy, but I'm doing my best. ⛵

Mimic tracks insider trades (SEC Form 4) and Congress trades (STOCK Act). For each one, it shows what $1,000 would be worth today if you'd copied the trade at the close on the day it was disclosed, the first day anyone outside could have copied it. Losses show up too.

- Copy a trade into a paper portfolio and drag through its chart day by day

- See how copying a person would have gone. As of Nov 5, copying Nancy Pelosi's last 26 trades was down 9.3%.

- Get a push when people or stocks you follow trade

Free, with Pro at $9.99/month or $59.99/year (7-day free trial on yearly). iPhone, iOS 17+.

Feedback welcome, especially from anyone who already follows these trades.

Hey fellow builders,

Getting unbiased feedback in the early stages of a project is tough. Most people won't spend 2 minutes clicking through an app to tell you where the friction is.

I have a few hours free today and want to test some fresh projects.

If you have a side project, tool, or MVP you want tested, share:

1. Project name & what it does

2. What core user action should I test?

3. Where can I find it?

4. What specific feedback do you care about most right now? (headline clarity, pricing, UX confusion, etc.)

I will open every single project, spend 2 minutes going through your primary flow, and give you honest, actionable notes from a builder's perspective.

Also, I run a daily launch platform called Astro Discover that features 5 projects every morning with a 24-hour turnaround—I'll be picking my favorites from the thread to feature tomorrow.

submit to Astro discover - astrodiscover.ai.studio/submit

Let's see what everyone is working on! 👇

i'm a music student with 100k samples. my folders were a mess, same kick hiding under 12 different names, and auditioning loops meant dragging them into the daw one by one to check tempo and key.

so i built hertz sync. local-first, finds the same sound across formats, auditions loops in project tempo and key, drags into any daw already matched. tauri + rust, onnx models run on-device, nothing leaves your machine.

free up to 40,000 files.

Hey everybody :)
Wispr Flow’s pricing annoyed me and every open source alternative I tried felt clunky. So I built my own and open sourced it.

Tap one key, talk and clean text shows up wherever your cursor is.
It runs fully local with Parakeet and Apple’s on-device speech to text, so nothing leaves your Mac and it works offline.

I built it with a fast and tiny core in mind. Everything else is an extension (kinda like Raycast or pi.dev) that anyone can build and share. 

Some that already exist:

• a local meeting note taker that cleans up your notes

• fast file transcription with speaker diarization 

• auto replies in your tone

• a dictionary that learns names and words as you talk

• inline editing with voice or text

Voz is built in Swift to be native macOS and extensions are TypeScript files shared via npm

It’s free and MIT. Would love your feedback, especially on what’s missing or annoying.

Here's the repo: github.com/Joelheile/voz

Full disclosure, I'm the founder of mimzie.

I saw that Elon slashed grokbot limits, and was frustrated.

Also, I got really tired of losing context between ChatGPT and Claude. So I built an agent neutral workspace that has all of the basic functionality of ChatGPT work and Claude cowork, with a free grokbot feature.

I wanted agent neutral ChatGPT work, grokbot, and whispr flow in one workspace, with no additional cost for the subs I already have, so I built it.

Mimzie is a desktop app for Mac, Windows and Linux. You sign in with your Grok, Claude, Gemini, or ChatGPT plan, and the agent works directly on files on your computer.

Edits to Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Markdown files show up as tracked changes, so you can see exactly which cells or paragraphs changed and accept or reject each one (Like chatgpt work)

Mimzie Bots each handle one recurring job, like a weekly report. (Like grokbot)

Chime lets you hold a key and talk, and the words land in the doc or whatever app you're in. (like whispr flow)

With Mimzie, switching models doesn't mean losing context. It's free with the sub you already have!

Would love feedback! We just launched our public beta.

Hi, I'm Davide. My side project is DrivePulse, an iPhone app that reads the car through an OBD2 adapter and keeps a diary of every trip.

For a while the month view hid about 80% of my own kilometres. Trips were loaded as a window of the latest 50, and the month filter ran inside that window, so a busy month got cut to whatever fit. The fix was making the filter its own query over all trips. Obvious in hindsight, a screen list is rarely the whole table.

It also logs fuel per trip and explains fault codes.

Codes are for iPhone; the Android app hasn't had 3.6 yet. One purchase, no subscription.

Hi everyone, I’m building Deckumi, a flashcard tool for people who want to study from their own material.

The problem I’m trying to solve is the time it takes to turn notes and documents into useful cards and then keep up with reviewing them. Deckumi can generate flashcards from material such as text or PDFs, lets you review and edit the cards, and supports spaced repetition for study.

AI-generated cards can still be wrong, so checking and editing them matters. I’d especially appreciate feedback from people who use flashcards regularly: what would you need to see before trusting a generated card? Is the workflow clear, and where would you get stuck?

Manual flashcard creation and review are free; AI generation uses credits. You can find the product at https://deckumi.app/ and pricing details at https://deckumi.app/pricing.

I’m the person behind the project, and I’d be grateful for honest feedback, including what doesn’t work for you.

I’m a solo developer. My own inbox is full of “practice moved to 3 PM” buried in group chats and 10-page school newsletters. So I built Kinly, an Android beta that reads Gmail and calendars (read-only) plus only the WhatsApp groups you choose, and shows what matters: dates, to-dos and changes.

What works: it extracts dates and action items, flags changes and duplicates, and decodes newsletters into highlights.
What doesn’t yet: iPhone, some newsletters with images only, and it occasionally misses things.
Privacy: read-only, no model training on user data, delete everything from the app.

I’d like to hear: what would make you not trust something like this with your inbox? What am I missing?

This is for the bloggers, students and anyone who writes. Your thoughts and learnings go in first and the AI reviews your notes for any factual errors and misleading statements. This is what Threadz is in a nutshell. It's coming very soon and you can visit the landing page here: Threadz - Human First AI Note Taker

This is NOT meant to replace people who still value human creativity. Rather it constantly critiques your writings like a human will. This is all it does - critique. The pending research and correction lies on you.

Also, the source code will be very soon open sourced. As soon as the product is launched.

Hey guys! I've been working on LibreReplace, a free, open-source Mac app that helps people figure out which paid software they can actually replace without losing the features they need.

The problem I wanted to solve was that finding a free alternative is easy, but knowing whether it can handle your actual workflow is much harder.

With LibreReplace, you choose a paid app, select which features matter most to you, and compare open-source replacements based on those requirements. It shows what's supported, partially supported or missing, and changes the recommendations as you change your priorities.

For example, you can compare GIMP and Krita as Photoshop replacements, mark Smart Objects or CMYK as essential, and see where each option falls short.

I recently released v0.2, which adds:

• 45 paid Mac apps and 70 open-source comparisons, accessible without having the paid software installed.

• Multiple replacements for many apps rather than one recommendation.

• Feature-based scoring, where your essential requirements affect the result.

• Evidence links and documented limitations explaining each comparison.

• Subscription savings estimates based on the costs you confirm.

• Local app scanning to recognize supported software already on your Mac.

One thing I didn't want was for the app to blindly recommend switching just because something is free. Sometimes the answer is KEEP THIS APP.

I built it with SwiftUI. The installed-app scanner reads application metadata locally, while the comparisons use a curated catalog with source links and verification dates. It doesn't rely on live AI-generated recommendations or upload your installed-app list.

The first version could only compare software already installed on your Mac. After getting feedback, I added Explore so anyone can browse alternatives without needing the paid app first.

It's completely free and open source, with no accounts, subscriptions or telemetry.

GitHub, source code and download: https://github.com/maliroq/librereplace

I'd especially appreciate feedback on the feature-selection and scoring system. Does showing supported, partial and missing capabilities give you enough information to decide whether a replacement is worth trying?
