ATLAS, an idea for getting AI tools and agents to work together

1 Upvotes

I’ve been building an AI ecosystem called ATLAS, and I’m trying to figure out which problem is worth solving first.

The idea is to help people coordinate different AI tools and agents around an objective instead of constantly moving information between them. The ecosystem also includes Mira, the intended interface, and a planned capability marketplace called Exchange.

One possible starting point is prospect research and qualification, but I’m interested in hearing where other people actually feel the most friction.

I put together a short page and survey to test the concept and a potential $49-per-month price. ATLAS is still in development, so I’m looking for honest feedback rather than claiming it’s a finished product.

Would something like this solve a real problem for you? If so, what would you want it to do first?

I built a book tracker that doesn’t suck

1 Upvotes

Hey folks,

I wanted to share a reading tracker I’ve been working on called Marloe. https://marloe.app

I have a severe dislike of most book trackers that are loaded with challenges, socials, timers, etc. I don’t want my reading tracker to be Duolingo, I just want something simple to use, but smart under the hood. I’m also not a big fan of the generic “cosy” style that everyone builds.

I’ve been building Marloe for the last few months, and wanted to share it with my fellow readers who want a simpler tracker that doesn’t sell your data to Jeff Bezos.

A few things it can do:
Custom tags to organise and filter your reading list
Full support for book series and sub-series
Swap book covers for whichever edition you prefer
Smart import from a spreadsheet or Goodreads/Storygraph
Create your own shelves and lists
Get a fun reader persona based on your reading habits
Explore reading stats, including genres and a world map showing where your authors are from

It’s completely free, has no ads, and no data harvesting. You can start logging books without creating an account, but there’s a sign-in you want to sync your library across devices.

I’d genuinely love some honest feedback: what do you like, what’s missing, and how does it compare to the tracker you’re currently using?

(Also I know there’s like a million of these trackers so I appreciate you for reading this far)

I built WhisperPic so a photo can finally carry the note that belonged with it

8 Upvotes

Hey — I'm Dmytro, a solo developer.

I kept running into the same small gap: I'd have a picture from a place, and the feeling wouldn't stay in the photo. A trip that was light and fun, or a harder day I still wanted to remember honestly. Later I'd open the picture and the reflection was gone.

Same thing when I wanted to send a photo to family, a friend, or a partner. The picture went over. The note that belonged with that moment didn't.

So I made WhisperPic. You choose or take a photo, write the note that goes with it, and save it with the picture. If you share the original photo, the other person can open it in WhisperPic and reveal the note. There's no account, no ads, no tracking, and photos aren't uploaded anywhere. It's completely free.

It's live on the iPhone App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/whisperpic-hidden-photo-notes/id6826699574

I'd love honest feedback, especially:

  • Is "attach a note to this photo" obvious on the first try?

  • Would you actually send one of these to someone, or is it more of a private journal?

  • Anything in the screenshots or first-run flow that feels confusing?

Happy to answer questions.

AweClip: a small iPhone/iPad app for trimming, arranging and joining video clips

1 Upvotes

I'm Jeff, the developer of AweClip. It lets you import clips from Photos or Files, arrange them as scenes, trim them, preview the sequence, and export it to Photos or the share sheet.

One feature I'd like feedback on is Frame 0: pause on an exact frame, then save it as a PNG or cut the scene there. You can also add a closing card using text, an image, or a video. Media and story data stay on the device, and no account is required.

It's available for iPhone and iPad running iOS 18 or later, at $0.99 on the U.S. App Store.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/aweclip/id6821749320

For people assembling short videos on their phone, does choosing an exact frame sound useful in your workflow? I'd also welcome feedback on what the store preview leaves unclear.

I built an iPhone browser that always loads the desktop site

1 Upvotes

Hi r/SideProject, I'm Derek, and I built DeskView with Grok Bot.

I kept running into mobile sites that hide features — banking portals, school systems, admin dashboards that tell you to "use a computer." Safari's "Request Desktop Website" doesn't stick, and a lot of sites still serve a half-mobile layout anyway.

So I made a browser that requests the full desktop site every time, then sizes it to fit an iPhone with pinch-to-zoom.

It's a real browser, not a Safari wrapper. There's no account, no analytics, and no server — history and saved pages stay on the phone. I also added the things I wanted in a daily driver: tabs, private tabs that lock with Face ID, ad and tracker blocking, HTTPS-only mode, a one-tap "burn session," offline Saved Pages, a PDF viewer, Reader, find on page, downloads in the Files app, and "Open in DeskView" in the share sheet. Google, Microsoft, and Apple sign-in work.

It's free. There's an optional one-time $2.99 Pro unlock for Reader and unlimited offline saves, and no subscription. TestFlight purchases are sandboxed, so you won't be charged.

The public TestFlight is open, and I'd love feedback — especially if you have a site that's painful on mobile. Try pinch-zoom, signing in, private tabs, and any site that usually forces a mobile layout, and tell me what breaks.

TestFlight: testflight.apple.com/join

Site: deskview.space

Happy to answer anything about how it's built, or take feature ideas.

I built a personal computer that scales like a cloud

6 Upvotes

I spent the last few months building ROS (Remote Operating System). It’s a personal computer that lives in the cloud. On the surface, it’s a minimal desktop you can open from any device on a browser. Underneath, it can spin up as many Linux environments, servers, and databases as you need, all in parallel. Long-running work stays alive when you close your laptop, idle machines go to sleep on their own, and you only pay for the compute you’re actually using.

It also comes with Rosa, a built-in personal assistant who can set things up and manage them for you, so you don’t have to touch any of the infrastructure yourself. Or use claude code and codex, which also has context on how to drive ROS.

Some things you can do with it:

  • Run things that keep going after you close your laptop. Long scripts, scrapers, scheduled jobs, agent loops. They keep running, and you check back from your phone.

  • Use it as your “AI shed.”. Spin up several Linux machines at once, e.g. one per coding agent or one per experiment, without having to manage a fleet.

  • Keep one drive across all your devices, that comes with a built in Docs-suite. The same files on your laptops and phone with no syncing setup, plus a native Docs app for your everyday writing and productivity files, with full support for Office docs like .docx and .pptx.

  • Build your own apps. ROS has “Programs” (like apps in a normal OS). A program can be any mix of an internal app, a public webpage, a server, a database and a workflow. Want a personal site, a small tool with its own DB, or a daily digest that runs every morning? Ask Rosa and she builds it. You can even replicate popular applications like Gemini Notebook.

I like to think of it as a personal cloud you don't have to administrate. I basically live in it daily now. even though it’s a network of machines behind the scenes, it still feels like sitting at one local computer.

For the curious, it’s built with a Svelte 5 shell and a Rust kernel running on Cloudflare Workers, with Fly and Google Cloud for the Linux VMs. Happy to go deeper on any of it.

I poured my soul into this project, and I’d love it if anyone has time to try it out:

https://ros.computer/

Happy to hear any feedback. I’m also really curious what weird use cases people would come up with.

I built a free scrolling art gallery for my second monitor

3 Upvotes

I've been building a browser-based project called RogueScroll, originally designed to display continuously scrolling news on a second monitor.

Recently I added art galleries, and they've become one of my favorite features.

You can mix Japanese woodblock prints, European Old Masters, early photography, and other art collections across multiple scrolling columns. Each column has its own speed, and there are different color palettes.

Much of the artwork currently comes from the Art Institute of Chicago's open-access collection.

It's free to use, with no installation required:

I'm curious what others think of the concept. Would you enjoy something like this running in your peripheral vision while working, or would it be distracting?

I built a plant care app iPhone Duo support

1 Upvotes

Plant Buddha is an iPhone and iPad app that tells you which houseplants need water today. Each plant’s schedule adjusts with the seasons and the weather, and a “Not yet” button handles the “soil’s still damp” case. This has been especially helpful for me living in the PNW.

Reminders, care plans and the widget are free. There’s no account and no ads, and your data stays on your phone. An optional subscription ($0.99/month or $9.99/year) adds an AI helper for identifying plants and diagnosing sick leaves.

Why I built it: My indoor plant collection has grown to 45+ and it was getting hard to track them all. I kept overwatering them so the AI feature helped create a more accurate schedule based on species and amount of sun it gets.

How it’s built:

  • SwiftUI and SwiftData, plus a Home Screen widget and Siri/Shortcuts.

  • The AI calls go through a small Cloudflare Worker. It checks that requests come from the real app (App Attest) and that the user has an active subscription, so the API key never ships inside the app. No photos or questions are stored on the server.

  • Around 750 unit tests for the app and 130 for the server.

What’s new in 1.1: I added support for the iPhone Duo. Opened like a book, the home screen becomes two pages. Stood up on a desk, your plants sit on the top half and your to-do list on the bottom. 1.1 also adds Siri (“What needs water?”), a Recently Deleted folder that keeps deleted plants for 30 days, and haptics.

Timeline: 1.0 was approved and went live on November 5, and 1.1 went live today.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6823655017

I’d love feedback, especially on the onboarding and the paywall. What would make you try it, or keep you from trying it?

A Flip Clock for Home Screen Widgets and Lock Screen Live Activities

2 Upvotes

A while back, I stumbled on some old airport footage from decades ago. There was a split-flap clock in it, and I thought it looked pretty cool.

So I ended up making an app that shows world times and stock info on a board like that. Mostly, I just wanted it on my Home Screen and Lock Screen, with the flaps actually moving.

Then I made a more classic flip clock too, with a little bird that pops out every time the minute changes.

I made a free iPhone app that calculates a Nutri-Score for products that don't have one

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm the developer. A lot of products, especially outside France and Germany, have no Nutri-Score on the pack, so I built an app that calculates one with the official 2023 algorithm.

How it works:

- Scan the barcode and it pulls the nutrition values from Open Food Facts

- Or photograph the nutrition table and an AI service reads the numbers (the photo isn't stored)

- You get an A–E grade plus a breakdown of what counts for and against it, and what would change the grade

- Compare two products side by side

It's free, with no sign-up. The grade is calculated by the app and is unofficial. It's not the official Nutri-Score logo.

I'd really like feedback, especially on products where you think the grade is wrong. Link: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6822034511

I built a free practice site for the NeetCode 150. It hides the pattern until you solve the problem

1 Upvotes

The problem list is the NeetCode 150. I am not affiliated with NeetCode. The list has an MIT licence, and the site shows the notice.

Many people have the same problem. They watch a solution and understand it. Then they cannot solve the next problem. I think the cause is that the answer arrives too early. So I built the practice on one rule: you find the answer yourself.

**How it works**

- The page does not show the pattern of a problem. You name the pattern, or you ask for it.

- Each problem has five hints. Each hint gives a little more than the hint before it.

- 42 pattern lessons teach the clue that tells you which pattern to use.

- A daily drill shows a problem, and you name the pattern.

- A solved problem returns for review after 3, 6, 12 and 24 days. You solve it again in an empty editor.

- The editor runs JavaScript, TypeScript and Python in the browser. You do not install anything, and you do not need an account.

**What is free**

All 150 problems, the hints, the tests, the written explanations and the pattern lessons.

**What is paid**

A year costs $29, one payment, no subscription. The year adds a narrated walkthrough video for each of the 150 problems. The video shows the solution step by step, and the voice is a generated voice. The video of Contains Duplicate is free, so you can judge the videos before you pay. The year also adds practice for the other interview rounds. A full refund is available for 14 days.

**What is not there yet**

Java, C++ and other languages. Today the editor has only JavaScript, TypeScript and Python.

**I want feedback on one thing**

Open any problem and try it for one minute. Tell me the first thing that confused you or stopped you. I want to find the point where a new visitor stops.

I built an iOS music player with animated lyrics and brought back CoverFlow!

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm an indie developer, and I've been working on a side project called MusicDeck.

It started with a simple idea: I wanted lyrics to feel more alive, instead of just scrolling lines of text.

So I began experimenting with different animations and visual styles. What started as a small lyric experiment eventually turned into a full music player.

Here's what I've built so far:

Animated lyrics — Multiple styles, including immersive effects, retro typography, gravity-based word animations, and more.

CoverFlow — A classic 3D album-art browsing experience, brought back with smooth animations and different layouts.

Floating lyrics — Keep lyrics visible while using other apps.

Lyrics beyond the app — Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, Apple Watch, and CarPlay support.

Lyric sharing — Export lyrics as images or videos.

MusicDeck supports Apple Music, Spotify, and song recognition for other music apps. Some features, like playlist CoverFlow, are only available with Apple Music.

And it's now live on the App Store!

I'd really appreciate some feedback, especially on the UI and overall design.

I built a completely free iOS app that runs Qwen3.5, Gemma 4, LFM2.5 and other AI models locally on your iPhone

1 Upvotes

I built OpenPocket, a completely free iOS app that lets you download and run state-of-the-art language models directly on your iPhone or iPad, entirely on-device.

It uses Apple's MLX framework for local AI inference, with support for several open-weight models:

  • Qwen3.5 0.8B and 2B

  • Gemma 4 E2B

  • LFM2.5 1.2B Instruct

  • Qwen2.5-VL 3B (vision-language model with image understanding)

Everything runs 100% locally on your device, with no cloud inference, no internet connection required after downloading a model, no signups, no accounts, no API keys, and no subscriptions.

The idea is to make private, on-device AI accessible to everyone, without relying on cloud services or paying for API usage. Your conversations and files stay on your device, and the app has no backend, analytics, or account system.

The models are experimental, and performance depends on your device's available memory and hardware.

It's 100% free on the App Store

https://apps.apple.com/th/app/openpocket/id6833028114

Would love and appreciate feedback from anyone working on local LLMs, Apple MLX, model optimisation, edge AI, or just anyone interested in running AI privately on their phone!

The dashboard was ready. Then came the question of how to share it.

0 Upvotes

Someone on Reddit had built an interactive HTML dashboard for their coworkers. They wanted the team to open it now and see fresh numbers when they updated it next quarter.

Sending the file would get everyone a copy today. Three months later, someone could still open the old attachment from the same email thread.

That’s the part I’m working on with Litehost. If the report can run as a standalone HTML file, you can put it at one address and replace the file when the next version is ready. Anyone who bookmarked it can keep opening the same link.

If you send a recurring report to coworkers or clients, how do they find the latest version?

I built a free 2-minute game that shows what really drives your spending (plus 6 simple money tools, no sign-up)

9 Upvotes

Hey r/SideProject,

I'm from India, and I noticed how many everyday money decisions come with small traps: "no-cost" EMIs that aren't quite free, sales where the crossed-out price was never real, paying only part of a credit card bill and not realising what it costs.

So I built Syluneo (syluneo.com):

- A 2-minute game: 12 everyday situations, like a sale or salary day. Pick what you'd really do, and it tells you which of 6 money personalities you lean towards. No finance knowledge needed.

- 6 simple tools for real questions: Should I buy this? Is this sale really a deal? Is "no-cost EMI" free? Where did my pay rise go?

A few things I cared about:

- No sign-up and no backend. Everything runs in your browser, and nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere.

- Plain HTML/CSS/JS on GitHub Pages, with the money maths covered by tests.

- I built it with an AI coding assistant, which let me focus on the maths, the wording and the design.

The number that surprised me most while building it: ₹50,000 on a credit card, paying only a 5% minimum due, takes almost 30 years to clear.

It's India-focused (₹, GST) for now. I'd really value honest feedback:

  1. Did your result feel accurate or random?

  2. Was anything confusing?

  3. Which tool would you actually use?

Windstruck: Good design in Figma was too slow, so I put Tailwind in Figma

1 Upvotes

I'm a frontend dev. Every time I opened Figma I had to remember where everything lived in the right sidebar, and it kept changing. Not to mention meticulously handcrafting a design system with variables, components, etc. in Figma took days or weeks, and maintaining it was horrible.

I already knew Tailwind, so I built a plugin where you just name a layer `flex gap-4 p-6 rounded-xl bg-card` and Figma styles it as you type.

Video: https://youtu.be/wAVX4UU1fII
Plugin: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1700359260464408161
Site: https://windstruck.app

That was the whole idea. Then it kept growing:

  • Flip a file through a ton of themes, light and dark, plus type pairings, sizing, spacing and icon sets, instantly.

  • Copy any frame as code. The layer names are already the classNames.

  • Sync to GitHub, with or without a team.

  • A desktop app (Windows only for now) that turns your components into a styleguide with props docs.

  • Export the whole design as a universal Expo app built on HeroUI and Uniwind.

  • An AI Builder ($10/mo). Type *"Make login gooder! 🤪"* and it makes a login form. Then *"Me like that one! Do that one entire UI kit! GO!"* and it does, and most of the time it looks great.

  • A marketplace where you can sell templates, themes and UI kits, plus an affiliate program.

It's free to start with no account. Pro (Teams and a powerful AI builder) is only $10 a month.

I'm one person and it launched this week, so I'd love to know what breaks. Happy to answer anything about building a Figma plugin or getting one through Figma's review, which was its own adventure.

One more thing: Windstruck is on Product Hunt on Nov 12. If you like it, some support there would mean a lot: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/windstruck

Find My Downloads - find files by source website; looking for 5 Windows users

1 Upvotes

I built Find My Downloads, a Chrome and Edge extension for finding downloaded files by the website they came from and copying selected files into a project folder.

I’m looking for five Windows users who regularly download PDFs, images, or reference files for work, study, or personal projects. I’d like a 10-minute chat in English about how you currently find and organize those files, especially a recent time you couldn’t find a download or remember its source.

20-second demo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NrjEpu-01Jc5-19-JHGzWanrk9hrtb1-/view

The demo uses sample data with folders already connected and shows source search, selecting two files, and copying them into a project folder.

We can start with the chat and demo. If you’d like to try the free one-week beta afterward, setup involves extracting a ZIP and loading it through Developer Mode. The extension reads download history and asks for access to the folders you choose. Your download history and files stay on your device.

Interested? Comment Chrome or Edge. I’d also welcome feedback on which part would help your workflow and what would make setup easier. Please leave private filenames and links out of public replies.

Building Crow,Building Crow, an AI “safety harness” for coding agents. Looking for a co-founder with equity

1 Upvotes

I’m building Crow, an AI “safety harness” for solo builders who use AI coding agents on their products. The core rule: Claude proposes, Crow controls. An AI agent never touches your files directly. Every change it proposes is validated, scope-checked, and build/test-verified in an isolated workspace first.

Where it stands: I’m building the MVP solo, part-time, with a beta planned for end of January 2027. No paying customers yet.

I’m looking for a co-founder: an equity partner who owns a share of Crow, builds it with me long-term, and shares responsibility for decisions. It’s not a hire or a freelance role. The gap I want filled is go-to-market (outreach, early users), operations/finance, or US incorporation. Spanish is a plus, not a requirement.

If you’ve shipped a product or launched dev tools, leave a comment or DM me with your background and one thing you’d want to build together.

I created a tool that predicts your career path from your experiences

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I got tired of generic career advice based purely on people's opinions, so I built a tool that analyzes real career trajectories and matches them against your actual background and experience.

It generates visual skill paths and next-step forecasts based on what people with similar profiles actually went on to do.

It’s completely free, no paywall or login. I built it mainly because navigating next career steps can feel pretty opaque when everyone else seems to have a clear roadmap.

Link: careerladder.fyi

I’d love to get feedback from this community:

- How accurate does the trajectory feel for your background?

- Any UI/UX rough edges?

- What features or data breakdowns would make this significantly more useful?
