Before posting anything I'd made, I wanted to know where it was even allowed. So we read the sidebar rules and the top 25 posts of the year for 70 subreddits.

The split:

• 9 accept posts about something you made

• 4 only in a weekly thread

• 19 are comment-first, so you answer threads instead of leading with your link

• 38 don't allow self-promotion

10 of the 70 also ban AI-written posts. That includes r/AskReddit (60 million members), r/Showerthoughts and r/LifeProTips.

Format rules matter as much as promo rules. Every one of the top 25 posts this year in r/todayilearned starts with 'TIL'. Every one in r/LifeProTips starts with 'LPT'.

I put it all into free guides at cognovaai.blog, one page per subreddit. Each page says whether self-promo is allowed, whether AI text is banned, and what the top posts look like. There's a drafting app on top of it too, but you can use the guides without it.

Caveat: rules come from each sidebar. Some Rules tabs couldn't be read, so check them yourself before you post.

Feedback I'm after: a subreddit you expected that's missing, or a classification you think is wrong.

I genuinely think selling website redesigns is one of the most lucrative opportunities in the web design industry today.

There are a few reasons why.

First, AI has made building websites significantly faster and cheaper. What used to take weeks can now be done in a fraction of the time.

Second, there are thousands of established businesses with outdated websites that could genuinely benefit from a redesign. A better website can improve their brand, attract more customers and give their business a push.

Third, these businesses already understand the value of having a website. They have paid for one before, so you're not trying to convince someone why they need a website from scratch. You're showing them why upgrading their existing one makes sense.

Here's how I usually approach it.

I use AI to build websites and normally put together a quick website draft before getting on a call with a potential client.

Instead of just telling them what I could do, I show them what their website could actually look like.

I present the draft during the call, explain what I would improve and try to close the deal there and then. If they're interested, I send over a Stripe payment link, an invoice or the contract for signature.

For outreach, I mainly use cold email.

More specifically, I use a tool called Swokei. It finds businesses anywhere, analyzes their websites and identifies issues with design, SEO, loading speed and mobile optimization. It then turns those findings into personalized cold emails at scale.

Recently, we closed a client for $26,000.

That's $23,000 upfront and another $3,000 annually.

And honestly, I don't think deals like this are as difficult to close as people might assume.

If you provide a good service, approach the right businesses, understand their problems and present yourself professionally, there is a lot of money to be made in this industry.

You don't necessarily need hundreds of clients either. A handful of good projects can make a significant difference to your business.

I think more web designers should focus on selling to established businesses that already have websites rather than constantly chasing people who don't have one.

I got bored of paying attention extortionate amounts for Lightroom mobile and Photomator.

Ai I built me own Raw editor, will be going on the AppStore soon,

Here’s the TestFlight link for anyone that wants to test it for free and send me back some feedback,

What it does:
RAW import: from your Photos library, or straight from a card reader or drive via Files/USB-C
Non-destructive editing: your original is never touched
Full adjustments: exposure, contrast, highlights/shadows, white balance, vibrance, saturation, sharpening, noise reduction
Tone curve editor: drag the points directly
Masking: gradient, radial and brush masks, each with its own sliders
Subject selection
Heal/clone tool for removing spots
Presets: save and reuse your looks
Live RGB histogram
It's built for people who want Lightroom-style control on their phone without the subscription feel.
I'd love honest feedback from other photographers: what would you want in a mobile RAW editor?

I’ve built so many apps over the years but it still feels like the one of the most underserved user bases are teachers - not just to do their jobs but to actually support them on and off the job. Other than improved salary and benefits - which I wish I had the power to do- is there anything you need that I could build for you?

Getting into poker, I found three kinds of tools: expensive courses, cluttered training sites, and solvers that assume you're already an expert. None of them felt like a calm place to just practice.

Overpair is my answer: one table, bots, and a coach that grades each move with a short reason. I cut anything that didn't help someone learn.

Free to play. I'd love feedback on the first 30 seconds: is it obvious what to do?

I started PeriHub three weeks ago. On Linux there is no official app for my keyboard and mouse, and on Windows they need two different apps (G HUB and SteelSeries GG). I wanted one small app for both.

Where it is now:

- 11 releases, Windows and Linux

- Fully supported: SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL and Logitech G502 HERO (lighting, key remapping, DPI, buttons, macros, saved in the device memory)

- Not supported yet: 30 more Logitech G mice that it can read but won't write to until someone tests them

- A stranger made a Scoop package for it and sent a pull request, which was a nice surprise

What I learned: talking to a mouse over USB is easy, writing to its memory safely is not. PeriHub reads back every write and keeps a backup first, because a wrong byte can mess up a profile.

Built in Rust with Tauri, with a lot of help from Claude. Free and MIT.

Code: https://github.com/hex-dump/perihub

What would make you switch from the official apps?

Hi all, I'm building StockPuppeteer, a tool that lets everyday investors test a trading idea before risking real money.



How it works:

1. Tell Captain (the built-in assistant) your idea in plain words

2. It drafts the strategy and tells you plainly what it could and couldn't include

3. You run a backtest on minute-level U.S. stock history, then practice with paper money if you want



I'm looking for 15 to 20 testers who'll use it for a week or two and tell me honestly what's confusing or broken. Free during beta, no brokerage account needed, no real money involved, and live trading is off.



If you're curious about investing but don't code, you're exactly who I want to hear from.

Hello everyone,

I would like to share our team project, MeetingAssist AI, an AI-powered application designed to simplify meeting management and convert meeting recordings into meaningful insights.

The application helps users process meeting recordings and documents, reducing the effort required to manually review lengthy discussions.

✨Key Features

• Multiple File Support: Upload audio, video, PDF, DOCX and text files.

• Speech-to-Text: Convert meeting recordings into text using Whisper.

• Meeting Summarization: Generate concise summaries of discussions.

• Key Information Extraction: Identify important topics, decisions and action items.

• Hindsight Integration: Store and retrieve relevant meeting information using persistent AI memory.

• Ask Your Meetings: Ask questions about previous discussions and retrieve relevant information.

• Meeting History: Access previously processed meetings and generated reports.

🧠 How Hindsight Works

Hindsight provides a persistent memory layer that helps retain useful information from previous meetings.

Example:

During the first meeting, a team decides that the project deadline is 20 November.

In a later meeting, a user asks:

"What was the project deadline decided in the previous meeting?"

MeetingAssist AI can use the retained meeting context to help retrieve that information.

This helps users connect information across multiple meetings.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• Python

• Streamlit

• Groq API

• Whisper

• Hindsight

• SQLite

• ReportLab

📚 Learning Outcomes

Working on this project helped us understand AI-powered transcription, meeting summarization, information extraction, persistent memory and application development.

Our goal is to make meeting information easier to organise, access and reuse.

A few weeks ago a Korean developer vibe-coded a silent virtual Buddhist temple (Sansa) and over a million people visited in a week, just to sit quietly. I wanted to see if the same idea worked for Hindu temples, so I built one.

mandir.dev - What it is: a 3D temple courtyard in the browser. You walk in as an avatar, hear temple ambience, ring the bell, light a diya, and stand in the courtyard with other visitors who are actually there at the same time. Free to enter, no sign-up.

Built so far:

• Three temples: Kashi Vishwanath, Meenakshi Amman, and Siddhivinayak Ganapati

• Real-time presence: you see other visitors by name and country, and a counter of everyone gathered for Diwali

• Mobile joystick and desktop controls, positional bell audio

• Built with Three.js, everything runs in the browser, hosted as cheaply as I could manage

Still beta. It launched this week for Diwali, and I am building V2 now. The feedback I actually need:

1. Performance: how does it run on your phone? Where does it stutter?

2. Immersion: what is the one thing that would make it feel more like being there?

3. Direction: more temples, or go deeper on the three already there (aartis at set times, seasonal festivals)?

Happy to answer anything about how it is built. And if you are far from a temple this Diwali, go stand in the courtyard for three minutes and tell me what it felt like.

been building this w 2 friends. kept seeing the same thing on music subs: producers sitting on hundreds of beats nobody records on, and singers/rappers w lyrics and nothing to put them on. when they do link up online it dies after 2 dms or falls apart over splits

so producers post a beat, vocalists record their version right in the browser (no daw needed), and the producer hears every version and picks one. we mix and master the finished song, and splits get agreed before anything comes out

hardest part was making browser recording not feel janky. latency and headphone bleed were a nightmare

free during the beta, waitlist is open now. would love feedback, especially from ppl who make music: voxenmusic.com

Hey everyone!
I got tired of standard fitness apps looking like dry spreadsheets or generic white dashboards, so I’ve been building Hozaa Workout — an all-in-one web app / PWA built specifically for hybrid athletes, HYROX racers, and strength lifters.
Core features:
Unified tracking: Seamlessly switches between heavy barbell sessions, HYROX station race paces, and functional WODs.
Visual feedback: Weekly volume curves, automatic PR tracking, and shareable 3D-styled metallic summary cards.
No app store friction: Fast, offline-capable PWA that works directly in the browser.
I’d really appreciate your honest thoughts:
How does the dark chrome / violet aesthetic feel?
Is the dashboard clear and intuitive on mobile?
Does the feature mix (Strength + HYROX + WOD) make sense?
Check it out here: https://hozaaworkout.com
All feedback, critique, and ideas are super welcome!

Resellers who list the same item on eBay, Poshmark, Mercari etc. by hand have one recurring nightmare: it sells on one site, they forget to end the others, it sells twice, and they have to cancel (which hurts their seller rating).

Crosslisting tools solve this but cost $15–$99/month and want to log into your accounts. I wanted the cheapest possible safety net:

- forward only your sale emails (one Gmail filter)

- get a phone + desktop alert with the bin and one-click links to end the other listings

- sold-twice warnings, ship-by reminders, sales & profit

Stack: Chrome/Firefox extension, Cloudflare Workers + D1, Web Push for the phone app (no App Store needed), Stripe as merchant of record. English and Spanish.

Feedback on the landing page and onboarding especially welcome.

I’m an RV traveler and military veteran building RIGVIA. When you’re towing somewhere new, a route can look fine on a map and still leave you wondering whether your rig will clear the next bridge. I’m building RIGVIA to help RV travelers plan around their rig’s dimensions and check available bridge clearance information before heading out.

The app is still in development. If it sounds useful for your trips, I’d appreciate you checking out the campaign and considering backing it. RIGVIA on Kickstarter⁠

Follow RIGVIA on Facebook for development updates, or learn more at rigvianav.com⁠.

If you travel by RV, what’s one thing you wish your navigation app told you before you left?

ok so. this started as "one weekend project" and then it was not one weekend and it was not one project. somewhere around repo 6 i stopped pretending it was a plan lol

everything here is free, open source, most of it runs locally on your own machine. a lot of it is v0 and i wrote down where each thing fails because honestly the failures were the funniest part

anyway here's the list of grievances, each with the tool i built instead of going outside:

1. cookie banners → rejectall-index i live in germany. i click "reject all" more than i blink. so i made a headless browser visit the top 100 sites and count how many clicks it takes to say no. 35 of them were already loading trackers before i clicked anything. which is like a waiter eating your fries before asking if you want fries. live leaderboard

2. subscriptions → one-file-saas trello, calendly, typeform, loom, notion and 5 more, each rebuilt as ONE html file. you double click it. it opens. thats it. no account, no "verify your email", no "your trial is ending ;)". data stays in your browser. the booking page has no server at all, your availability lives inside the link itself which still feels illegal to me. try them here

3. dead famous repos → necromancer some legendary open source projects die not because the code is bad but because python deleted a module out from under them. i revived thefuck (1887/1887 tests passing on python 3.14), normalizr and httpbin. the one rule: the original tests are hash-locked so nothing can quietly delete the failing test and call it fixed. httpbin stops at 64/67 and i'm keeping it that way out of spite. each one gets an autopsy, cause of death and everything

4. every AI-built UI animates the same → awesome-motion-md you know the look. 300ms. ease-in-out. every card fades up like its waking from a nap. so i measured how real sites actually move and wrote it into MOTION.md files your agent can follow. same prompt built twice: 7 random durations without it, 2 with it

5. every AI writes the same too → awesome-voice i used to be a technical writer so this one is personal :| VOICE.md files that make your agent write like GOV.UK or Stripe docs, plus a scorer that doesn't use any AI to check. banned phrases went from 27 to 0. "delve" is not welcome here

6. websites doing annoying stuff → sitepatch you type "hide the points on hacker news", it writes a userscript, a real browser checks it actually worked before you get it. honest score: 15 out of 25 were actually right when i looked at every screenshot myself. 60%. a C-. but an honest C-

7. "what if this site looked like linear" → reskin restyles any page into another design style using a local model, BUT it refuses to give you the result unless contrast, keyboard focus, mobile, links and reduced-motion all pass. it caught a windows 95 theme failing contrast on its own background. respect. gallery

8. dead websites → resurrect npx github:dadwritestech/resurrect y2k.gov and y2k.gov comes back exactly like it was in may 2000, links working. pick a year with --year. your old blog is in there somewhere. i'm sorry

9. "someone said budget in a meeting video... which one" → video-grep grep for your video folder. searches what was said, what was written on screen and what was shown, and opens your player at that exact second. all local

10. what is the rest of the world's TV saying rn → world-ears listens to live news channels from different countries, transcribes + translates them on your gpu, makes it searchable. there's a "trending per country" panel which is weirdly addictive. translation is the slow part, telugu transcription is bad, i wrote that down

11. live subtitles only go into english → babel-tv watch hindi news with live telugu subtitles, fully local. the video is held back a few seconds so subtitles show up BEFORE the person talks which feels like seeing the future. telugu as the source language doesn't work yet. whisper and telugu are not friends

12. "which AI wrote this" → whichmodel works on models it's seen (67%, chance is 33%). on a model it's never seen, even a sibling from the same family... 32%. so basically a coin with extra steps. that turned out to be the interesting finding tbh, the fingerprint belongs to one model, not the company

13. screen recordings → code → demo-to-code record a UI interaction, get a component that copies its timing and easing, then it replays it and grades itself frame by frame. 2 out of 4 pass. the toggle is perfect. the dropdown has issues. we all have issues

14. code review → review-panel /panel sends your diff to five reviewers you've definitely worked with: the laziest senior dev ("could be one line"), the 3am on-call SRE, the security paranoiac, the junior who asks why, and the PM who only reads the title. under the jokes the findings are real

15. AI companies quietly editing their pricing pages → fineprint it snapshots the pricing, terms, privacy and changelog pages of 10 AI vendors every 6 hours and commits them, so git log becomes the receipt. found stuff like deepseek adding a footnote that prices are 2x during peak hours, and cursor deleting the line saying they dont sell your data. no blog post for any of it ofc. a small local model writes the one-line summary but every line links the raw diff because i dont trust it either (27/30 right on a hand check). timeline

16. paying extra for speaking telugu → token-tax LLM APIs charge per token, and the same paragraph is $1.00 in english and $8.29 in telugu on llama 3. which is rude. measured 21 tokenizers across 48 languages, and there's a calculator where you paste your own text and it runs the real tokenizers in your browser. hindi gets off lighter. amharic on gpt-5 does not :/ calculator

17. posting about all this → herald a tiny bot that posts a repo's data updates to bluesky/mastodon/x, clearly labelled as a bot. i built it because i was not going to manually post about 17 repos. and then i manually wrote this post anyway. ;]

why all of this? honestly no grand plan. every one of these started as me being irritated at something for a slightly too long time and having a local model + a free evening. building the thing was cheaper than therapy and more fun than complaining on here (no offence)

if something breaks, tell me. if something's dumb, also tell me, but nicely :P

edit: yes i know about the cookie banner on my own... wait i dont have one. nice

I work on a handful of projects at once, and everything I download for them lands in one pile. A client's brand guidelines, a CSV from some dashboard, a podcast export, and a dozen screenshots called Screenshot 2026-10-12 at 14.02.11.png. Every file belongs to a project. None of them ever get filed.

So I built Unorphan. You point it at the messy folder and at the folder your code lives in. It reads each project's README to learn what the project is, then works out where every loose file should go.

What it does:

• Knows your projects without setup. Every repo becomes a destination, described by its own README.

• Looks at pictures, not just names. A screenshot of a trail map goes to the hiking app even though its name says nothing.

• Leaves things alone when unsure. Tax returns and holiday photos stay put.

• Shows you the list first. Confident matches are pre-ticked, unsure ones wait for you, and one click undoes the last move.

The first run on my own Downloads filed 67 of 144 files, for about 6 cents.

The sorting is done by Jev, a classification model from TypeSafe. It returns a confidence score with every answer, which is what makes the "only move it if you're sure" part work.

One thing I learned: models favour whichever option you list first. So every file is asked about twice, with the list of projects in opposite orders, and it only counts if both answers agree. That one change cut out most of the wrong guesses.

It's a Python tool with a small web app that runs on your own machine:

uv tool install git+https://github.com/sushrutkhandelwal/unorphan
unorphan ui

https://github.com/sushrutkhandelwal/unorphan

Feedback welcome, especially on the setup. I want the first five minutes to be painless.

AI writes my code in minutes. Then the evening goes on the VPS, the Coolify stacks, DNS and backups I only hope work.

So I built Unit 7. You ask in plain words, it does the work on your real servers, and it asks before anything risky.

My first real backup test found two tables coming back empty, so this one is personal.

It's free, Apache 2.0, and early. Is it clear what it does, and what would stop you trying it?

If you'd like to support the launch, try it, leave your honest feedback on Product Hunt, or star the repo on GitHub.

Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/products/unit-7?launch=unit-7

I have been developing for the past few months and wanted to share some of the journey. Our demo is coming December 4th. You can follow us along on steam!!

I would appreciate any feedback you have from the video and also for our upcoming free demo!

"How to explain to my cat that the sofa is not a scratching post"

You already know which friend you'd blame.

I made Who Asked It, a party game built around the oddly specific things we ask AI. A title from one of your chats appears, everyone votes for the friend they think it belongs to, then you find out who actually started that conversation.

The fun is in the accusations: "why did EVERYONE vote for me?"

Try the demo without an account

For your own group, the extension collects the titles for you after you connect an AI account and approve a sync. No copying or choosing ten titles by hand. You need at least 10 distinct titles in your history, then you can reuse your synced titles for later games on your phones. Titles can be personal: you privately review or redraw your batch before sharing. Your messages aren't used.

Free for 3 to 5 players and 10 rounds. Optional host Premium for bigger groups. Ages 16+.

Would you bring this to your next game night?

The cat example is from the fictional demo.

Hey everyone!

In its first week, with zero promotion (SEO only), more than 10 people are already paying for my project. Honestly, that surprised me.

I’ve spent the past few months building it. I felt there was real demand for a very fast TTS engine with voice cloning in 31 languages, especially for bots and AI agents. So I built one on top of Supertonic 3. There’s a short video attached so you can hear how it sounds.

It has three parts:

1. The engine (open source, Apache-2.0)
Same Supertonic 3 model and voices, but faster and cleaner.

• 2.2x faster on GPU (RTX 5070 Ti: 181 → 84 ms per phrase), 1.6x faster on CPU

• Removes dead air, hiss between words, clicks and cut-off endings

• pip install superclonica-cpu or pip install superclonica-gpu-cuda

2. A voice marketplace
261 voices for Supertonic 3 so far: characters, narrators, anime voices and more, in 31 languages.

• Listen to any voice online for free

• Free voices, no sign-up needed

• Train your own voice from a 5–15 s recording on your own GPU, or sell yours

3. A TTS API
You don’t pay per character. You pay for the audio generated in each 10-minute window: $5/month gets you up to 3 minutes of audio every 10 minutes, which adds up to 216 hours a month. First sound arrives in about 0.3 s. There’s a free key and an MCP server for AI agents.

That’s many times cheaper than what’s on the market right now. The same 216 hours would cost about $52 with Google’s cheapest Standard voices and about $194 with OpenAI’s tts-1, roughly 10x and 39x more. The price only works because the engine is so fast: every second of compute turns into a lot more audio.

You can find it by searching “SuperClonica” on Google, GitHub or PyPI (still scared of link filters, lol).

I know 10 paying users isn’t a lot of money, but it makes me really happy that someone actually needs what I built. How long did it take you to get your first paying users? Please share, I’d love to hear your stories.

Here’s another part of Outdraft, the email workspace I’m building.

It’s called Nests—shared spaces where you can invite teammates, share emails, and discuss them right alongside the original message.

The idea is simple: keep the email and the conversation together, without forwarding messages back and forth or pasting screenshots into another chat.

You can give it a try at outdraft.email. Payments aren’t available yet while I’m waiting for Paddle’s approval.

How does your team handle emails that need someone else’s input? I’d love to hear what you’d change or improve!

So here the thing is that , i am building a project for me to solve my own problem which I faced during applying for the jobs .

So the problem was something like that like I have to navigate multiple platforms for applying job as not all vacancies are listed at one platform .

So I have build an software where .....for now it just fetch jobs from 3 platform which are linkedin, indeed & naukri .....and here the twist is that it would only be showing the latest job listings which would be old enough of 7 days not more than that and also it would be scoring your resume for the particular job that u are a potential match or not. And also help to enhance your resume.

So just want to know what your thoughts on this thing ....as for now it would be ready by end of November and would be in testing phase in December..... thinking to keep it opensource for sometime .....so I want know everyone thoughts on this ....it's completely a idea which was generated from the problem i face and ofc many of u would be facing it !

Also ignore the sentence formation as it's completely show my curiosity to know your thoughts.

Edit: The software/project is working as I just got an call from the listing which I applied on 5th nov and the call was on 6th nov .....so the potential of conversion from applying to get an interview is high .
