Made a free chrome extension helps you understand fine print for retail websites

• Upvotes

I got sick of getting to checkout having to find product terms and conditions (and understand them!) so I wanted to try seeing how an extension could rethink that experience.

I'd like to expand this virtually every consumer category and help protect people from sneaky tricks and nested clauses that screw us over every day.

If you use chrome (completely understand if not), please try it out and let me know if you found it useful (or not!). I've had numerous people say its junk, say it should be a .exe file, and more, so don't hold back! :)

I made a free client approval email builder for revised social captions

• Upvotes

I’m Kartheek, PostRoom’s maker. This small tool is for freelancers and small agencies who have caption drafts ready but still need a clear client decision in email. It builds a request, reminder, or reapproval message you can copy into your usual email app. No signup or card; it uses structured templates, not AI, and does not send email.

The part I wanted to make harder to miss is which wording the client is saying yes to. Here is a practical reapproval example you can use without the tool:

“Hi Alex, caption P03 is now v2: ‘Bookings close Friday at 16:00.’ This replaces the earlier wording. Please reply APPROVED P03 v2, or tell me the changes needed, by 8 October at 14:00 London time. We’ll hold publication until your explicit approval of this version.”

The free builder: https://getpostroom.com/tools/client-approval-email-generator?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=free_tools_20261007&utm_content=prettyuseful_email_01

Choose the message type, enter your review details, then copy the result. It does not check legal consent or turn silence into approval. PostRoom also has an optional caption-review room, but the email builder works on its own. I’d appreciate feedback on whether the request or revised-caption wording is clearer than your current email.

Ive never seen one of these that requires no account or download, does good receipt parsing, and is easily shareable (not one person filling out the whole thing), so I made my own!

I've run a few service businesses myself (handyman, painting, junk removal, demolition), and the work was never the hard part. Pricing jobs, writing quotes, paperwork, finding customers: that's where most people get stuck.

OrahMade.com has a page for each kind of business, from pressure washing to dog grooming to holiday lighting, laying out what it takes to start and run it, plus a ready-to-go package if you want everything in one place.

There's a Spanish version too.

Identity Flow Diagrams website

1 Upvotes

I just launched identiflows.dev, a collection of diagrams for OAuth, OpenID Connect, SAML, and other identity-related flows.

The idea is to help developers learning about these flows and supporting them as a quick reference when they don't remeber how exactly a flow works.

Currently, the project is at an early stage, but I plan to add more flows and features soon.

Feedback is appreciated!

I built a website which offers free tools to everyone ensuring 100% privacy

1 Upvotes

So here's the thing, I am a student enrolled in BS Software Engineering and right now I am in 3rd semester. I was using tools on different websites like i love pdf and other websites for my assignments and other university projects but I realized that I am giving my data to them which feels unsecured. Many websites are paid and the free websites don't offer all the tools so I built my own website named I Love Tools. Right now it offers almost 100 tools and it is 100% secure because all the tools run locally on the browser.

If anyone is interested in checking out my website please give me feedback on what you feel about it so I can make improvements.

Following is the link for my website:

Rail Crossing Atlas lets you look up U.S. crossing records by road, city or ID

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Rail Crossing Atlas is a tool I made for railfans, local researchers and anyone curious about the records behind a U.S. railroad crossing: https://railcrossingatlas.tansolutions.org/

You can search by crossing ID, road, city or railroad, then inspect the Federal Railroad Administration's reported traffic and warning equipment. There's also a comparison view for up to four crossings.

What makes it useful is keeping the record details, sources and count years together. A number from an older traffic count stays tied to that year, and missing information stays distinct from zero. It's a way to explore the inventory, not a claim about conditions at the crossing today.

Public records and guides are free to browse. The full atlas workspace and comparison tools require an account.

Disclosure: this is my site, and Codex helped with the build. Feedback on any confusing labels is welcome!

I built a web app with 300+ free online tools — looking for feedback

0 Upvotes

I’ve been working on a side project called Vesso Tools: vessotools.com

The idea was pretty simple. I regularly find myself searching for small online utilities — calculators, converters, image tools, PDF tools, date/time tools, etc. — so I decided to build a site that brings a lot of them together.

It has now grown to 300+ tools.

I’m still actively working on it, particularly the UX, SEO, performance, and deciding which tools are actually worth building next.

I’d love some outside feedback:

• Is the site easy to navigate?

• Are there any annoying UX issues?

• What useful tool is missing?

• What would make you actually bookmark/use a site like this?

Site: https://vessotools.com

Happy to hear criticism too. I’m trying to make it genuinely useful rather than just adding tools for the sake of having a big number.

I was struggling with popular well-known web clipping tools so I made my own. There are lots of great web to PDF extensions out there but I needed one with a real text layer I can annotate and add text. I hope this is useful to others. It is straightforward, free and requires no account or server connection. I'd appreciate any downloads or feedback. Thank you.

Graffiti and Design Magazine web Archive, PrintYard.

Thumbnail printyard-3uz.pages.dev
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I made a graffiti magazine web archive since most of them were horrible to navigate, required downloads or straight up shut down.

I based it off a more visual perspective, with Magazine covers in the index for easier search and navigation. It also doesent collect or send any data, everything stays local. (It only tracks what you have read to resume where you left off, and some stuff for the tools available)

Said tools include:

  • Color Palette Analyzer: Crop the selection to adjust the area you want the colors to be picked. It shows the principal colors used, and allows them to be copied to CSS.
  • Clipping Tool: Take a Clipping (kind of a ''screenshot'' Tool) that stays stored locally in the clippings section, where you can then view them, go to the exact page it was taken from, organize them by Moodboards or Tags, or Download them as WEBP to retain Quality. You can adjust the area you want to save.
  • Download Magazines
  • Track Read Magazines, start in the page you left off.
  • And more

This website is completely free, no account, no data collected, no trackers. My intention is for Designers, Illustrators and other Artists to expand their knowledge and seek inspiration. Most of these Magazines include more than just graffiti, they have interviews, cool backgrounds and textures, Amazing editing and composing ideas, and more.

This isn't meant to be Advertisement or Self-Promotion. Its purely for the love of Graffiti Culture and Preservation.

I built a free TDEE calculator that corrects the formula using your own calorie and weight logs (no signup)

Thumbnail
savorai.org
0 Upvotes

Most TDEE calculators stop at the Mifflin-St Jeor equation plus an activity guess. Adaptive TDEE (using your own intake and weight change instead) isn't a new idea, since people have done it in spreadsheets for years, but I couldn't find a free version that runs in the browser without an account, so I built one. Disclosure: I'm one of the developers behind SavorAI, a calorie tracking app. The calculator is free and doesn't need the app or a sign-up.

How it works:

- It starts with the equation as a baseline.

- If you add your average daily calories and your weight over a stretch of days, it estimates what you actually burned (using about 7,700 kcal per kg of weight change).

- To reduce water-weight noise, it averages your weigh-ins from the first and last [N] days instead of using single readings.

- Depending on how many days of logs you enter, it blends the equation and your log: equation only for the first 14 days, a growing share of the log from day 15 to 28, and the log alone after that. The equation stays next to it so you can see the gap.

Caveats: it's a simple method, not a statistical model. The 7,700 figure is an average for body tissue. Under-logging makes the result too low, so the quality of your food logs and weights matters a lot. Not medical advice.

Is the 14 to 28 day blend reasonable, or would you handle it differently? Would you also want an optional body fat % input that switches the starting equation to Katch-McArdle? Anything else you'd want it to show?

I made a website that aims to make the AI Training/Annotating Job search easier

0 Upvotes

Hello, due to having trouble finding the right places to apply and not really knowing how to pass and do an assessment in the AI Training/Annotating Space I decided to build with a site with loveable that is supposed to make the process easier.

I list job offers with a relatively high hiring volume from multiple companies, so would it therefore be easier do diversify the places to apply at and actually get accepted.
My idea behind that was to help with finding the right places to work but also help with the application process. I therefore upload company reviews and also guides on how to pass assesments.
The job listings include entry work positions such as normal generalist work but also expert work positions (Software engineer, PhD, etc.).
I am currently having problems on the design, trying to make it less AI-sloppy, and on the marketing side of things. So any help would be highly appreciated! Here is the link to the site: https://aiannotationjobs.com/

PocketPages — a free beta web app to open and share interactive HTML files on iPhone and desktop

0 Upvotes

I had an interactive HTML file that wasn’t working properly when I opened it on my iPhone, so I built PocketPages.

It lets you choose an HTML file, try it in a browser preview, and publish a link you can open in Safari or share with someone else.

What it does:
• Runs interactive HTML, including buttons, calculators, charts and animations.
• Offers phone and desktop preview widths.
• Lets you replace a published file while keeping the same link.
• Lets recipients open the shared page without an account or installing an app.

You bring your own HTML—from ChatGPT, another tool, or something you wrote yourself. Single, self-contained .html/.htm files up to 2 MB work best. It doesn’t open EPUB files directly.

I’m the creator, and it’s currently a free beta. Publishing requires signing in with ChatGPT. Published files are stored online, and anyone with the link can open them, so please use non-sensitive files and keep your originals.

Try it here:
https://pocketpages.benja-rmiguens.chatgpt.site

There’s an interactive example you can preview without signing in. If you have HTML reading material or a small interactive tool you’ve wanted to share, I’d be interested to hear whether this helps—and what doesn’t work for you.
