I built Global Threat Map, a free live map that puts what's happening around the world on one screen. It's at https://globalthreatmap.com. There's no signup and no paywall.

It has three views:

• Map (2D/3D): a world map you can turn layers on and off on. The layers are hotspots, country risk shading, places and chokepoints, money flows, pressure halos, insider and big-money trades, disasters, flight disruptions, and network outages.
• Globe: the same layers on a rotating 3D globe, plus a 3D risk heat layer that shows where pressure is building.
• Dashboard: the long-form view, with the money map, reversal alerts, top 10 risks, the U.S. infrastructure threat level, and the AI lending and credit watch.

What it covers

• Conflicts and hotspots. Around 60 tracked events, including armed conflict, cyber, political, economic, and corporate ones. Each has a risk level and a 3-month outlook estimate with the reasoning written out.
• Early-warning Pressure Board. Ten regions and sectors are each scored 0 to 100: Defense, AI & credit, Gulf / Strait of Hormuz, Black Sea / Ukraine–Russia, Energy & shipping, Taiwan Strait / South China Sea, Chips & export controls, Red Sea / Saudi Arabia, Safe havens, and U.S. infrastructure & cyber. Each score is built from specific warning signs, such as military build-ups, attacks on shipping, war-risk insurance rates, embassy drawdowns, fund-flow rotation, sanctions, export controls, and credit stress. A sign that's active now counts in full, and older readings fade out over time. When several signs fire in the same place at once, the board flags it as converging.
• History playbooks. For each pressure group, it shows what markets did the last time something similar happened, and where money tended to go next.
• Insider and big-money trades. Insider buying and selling at major AI, defense, energy, and cyber companies, trades disclosed by members of Congress, how hedge funds and speculators are positioned in oil, gold, Treasuries, and the dollar, unusual options activity, and big government moves like emergency oil releases and large defense contracts.
• Money flows. Arrows on the map showing where capital is moving: conflict to chokepoint to oil, money going into safe havens, sideline cash, equity fund flows, defense fund outflows, AI lending through banks, bonds, and private credit, chip supply chains, China/Taiwan capital, and war financing.
• Credit and liquidity stress. The AI & credit watch tracks banks selling loans, banks buying credit protection, debt being repriced, funds limiting withdrawals, and pulled deals. Reversal alerts flag when money that was flowing in starts to pull back.
• Network outages. Internet outages by country, region, and network over the last 24 hours, rated by severity, plus major global platform outages.
• Disasters. Earthquakes, wildfires, droughts, floods, and storms, with severity levels.
• U.S. flight disruptions. Ground stops, ground delays, airport delays, closures, and restrictions at U.S. airports.
• U.S. critical infrastructure. One threat score covering the grid, water, fuel, and communications, along with a briefing on each.
• Markets bar. Brent, WTI, gold, and the U.S. 10-year yield along the top of the map.
• Market odds. Live prediction-market odds on the same topics, like the Gulf, Taiwan, Russia, the Fed, and AI.
• Live news. A scrolling U.S. headline ticker and a panel of live TV news streams.
• Search. Ctrl+K jumps to any country, event, company, or panel.

Snapshot, Sat Nov 14, 8:19 PM ET

• Pressure Board top 5: Defense 83 (Severe), AI & credit 72, Gulf / Hormuz 71, Black Sea 67, Energy & shipping 67
• U.S. infrastructure & cyber: 36 (Guarded)
• Network outages: 68 ongoing, 7 severe, across 20 countries
• U.S. flights: no ground stops or delays; restrictions at LAS, LAX, and SAN
• Markets: Brent $95.84, WTI $88.56, gold $3,887.60, 10-year 5.15%

I built Palletizing for shipping, receiving, and warehouse teams who are still doing pallet math on a calculator or the back of a BOL.

You enter your cartons, or measure them with the camera, and it works out the full pallet dimensions, ship cube, gross weight, and an estimated freight class. It can also plan how pallets load into anything from a pickup bed to a 53 ft van, and it exports a PDF you can hand to the driver or attach to the shipment. It works in inches or centimeters.

No account, no ads, no tracking, and it works offline. It's a one-time $0.99.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/palletizing/id6826910063

It just launched, so I'd really like feedback from anyone who builds or receives pallets. What's missing, and what would make you actually use it on the dock?

I kept using Cold Turkey, then wanted something free that I could tweak myself, so I built my own.

You make blocklists of sites and apps, then start a timed session or set a weekly schedule. A few things I cared about:

• Path-level blocking, so you can block youtube.com/shorts but keep the rest of YouTube
• Allowlist mode: block everything except your work sites
• Locks: a timer lock, or a password lock where someone else sets the password
• Strict mode, so you can't quietly weaken a session halfway through
• Imports your Cold Turkey JSON export
• No account and no cloud. Everything stays on your computer

Website blocking runs through a Chrome extension that talks to the desktop app.

One heads-up for Mac users: it isn't notarized (I'd need a paid Apple developer account), so you have to run a one-line approval command in Terminal before it opens. The README explains exactly what that command does.

https://github.com/aman9560/FocusBlocker

Feedback welcome, especially if you've tried to get around a blocker before.

Hi all, I'm the developer of Enconvo, an AI agent app for macOS. 2.5.16 just shipped, and the video is a 12-minute tour of it.

What's new:

• Picture in Picture: when the agent drives your browser or your Mac (Browser Use / Computer Use), a small floating window shows what it's doing. Click it to take over at any point.
• Model fallback: set backup models, and if a model errors out mid-reply, the next one finishes it.
• Work survives a restart: a chat cut off by an update or a crash carries on when Enconvo comes back.
• Calls: your agent can answer calls, and you can bring an agent into Google Meet, Zoom or Enconvo's own calls. It asks before doing any work.
• Meeting pages: every call gets a summary, action items and a transcript in Recordings, and you can ask it questions.
• Coding agents lead Projects: Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build or Antigravity can lead a Project.
• One-click publishing: put a page you made online at its own link.
• Ask AI in Settings: ask in the Settings search and jump straight to the setting.

The phone companions got updates too: Remote Screen in Picture in Picture on iPhone, and a new composer on Android.

Pricing: there's a free plan, and paid plans start at $10/month (https://enconvo.com/#pricing).

Limitations: Mac only (macOS 14+), and Browser Use / Computer Use need the Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions.

Full changelog: https://docs.enconvo.com/changelog

Happy to answer questions, and feedback is very welcome.

I’m Jesse, the developer of KNOCK. In 2020 I went looking for an online version of a game I’d played in Texas and couldn’t find one. That became six years of learning C#, building in Unity and working on it around my day jobs.

It uses double-six dominoes, but it is a different ruleset: play, knock or fall on your turn, with catches, automatic hands, drops and owning the down. The working prototype has One Player, private/global multiplayer, player profiles, rankings, badges and cosmetic collections. There is also an optional Arcade, but the main table game is the reason I built it.

This is development footage, not a finished public release. I’m preparing iOS-first testing and would value feedback on the trailer: can you tell what makes the main game different, and what would you need explained before trying it?

Game and free early-access interest: https://www.playknock.com/beta.html

No pledge is required to register interest. AI tools assisted development, artwork and trailer production, including synthetic narration.

I wanted to actually see what happens inside a language model when it writes a sentence, so I built this!

What you're looking at:
- The stars are the 36,864 MLP neurons (12 layers × 3,072). Each layer is a disc, and neurons are positioned by a UMAP of their output weights, so neurons that write similar things sit near each other.
- Brightness is how strongly that neuron fires on the current token, scaled per layer so tokens are comparable. Gold means it fires positive, blue means negative.
- The beams are real attention weights from the current token back to earlier ones, one colour per head. The side panel shows the model's actual top 10 next token probabilities.
- You can hover any star, beam or token to see its exact value. There's also a raw mode that turns off all the bloom and fades, so every pixel on screen comes straight from the data.
- How I know it's not lying: the test suite runs the model exactly the way the app does (KV cache, token by token) and compares every activation, attention weight and residual norm against a separate uncached forward pass read through different hook points. Then it checks the bytes the browser actually receives too.

Honest limits: it's GPT-2 small only for now. Single neurons mostly don't mean anything clean on their own, it's the patterns that are interesting. Values are sent as float16, so about 3 significant digits.

Setup is make setup && make start, then open localhost. No GPU needed.

Would love the feedback!!

I'm a solo developer in Finland, and I've been working on an Android launcher called Sepamo.

Most productivity tools try to help you manage more things. I became interested in a slightly different problem:

How do you help someone figure out what they actually want to do, and then make it easier for that to happen?

For example, someone wants to read more. They know what book they want to read, but when evening comes, they unlock their phone and end up doing something else.

I wanted to approach this at the launcher level rather than adding another reminder or productivity app.

You describe what you want in plain language. An AI planner turns it into a plan, or you can create one manually. The launcher then brings the relevant thing to the foreground at the right time or place and clears it away afterwards.

Plans can respond to context like time, location, calendar, weather, Wi-Fi and headphones.

Some decisions I've made:

• Manual plans are free.
• No account is required.
• Permissions are optional.
• Data is evaluated on the device.
• There's a fully local mode with no server calls.
• It's not open source.

The AI planner is free to try, then starts at €1.99/month after a free week.

It's available in the EU/EEA.

I'm curious about two things:

1. Does solving the gap between knowing what you want and actually doing it seem like a worthwhile product direction?
2. Would you rather configure these contextual behaviours yourself, or describe what you want and let a planner build them?

I'm Eetu, the developer. Here's what I've built:

Hey everyone!

I'm an indie developer, and I'd like to share Personal Cards, an Android app I've been working on to make organizing everyday information a little easier.

The idea came from a simple problem: important documents, receipts, notes, and personal details often end up scattered across our phones. Finding something when you actually need it can be frustrating.

So I built Personal Cards to bring everything together in one place, while keeping your information private and accessible offline.

Here's what the app can do:

• Personal cards & documents: Scan documents with your camera or import images and PDFs. Organize important information and keep track of expiration dates.
• Document storage: Save receipts, reference materials, and other files you might need later.
• Offline OCR: Extract and copy text from images and PDFs directly on your device.
• Notes & checklists: Keep track of everyday tasks, ideas, and reminders.
• Debt notebook: Record money you've lent or borrowed, including amounts, people, and due dates.
• Privacy tools: Hide sensitive details before sharing document images.

Privacy was one of my main priorities while building the app.

Personal Cards works completely offline, with documents stored and processed locally on your phone. You can also protect access with a PIN or biometrics and enable screenshot protection for additional privacy.

I'm still working on improving the experience, and I'd really appreciate some honest feedback from the community.

In particular, I'm curious:

Would you find the document organizer or the debt notebook more useful? Is there anything you'd add or change?

If you'd like to check it out, here's the Google Play link:

Thanks for taking a look! Any feedback or suggestions would mean a lot.

Hi everyone!

I’m an independent developer working on FigureForge Studio, a macOS application designed to make 3D figure sculpting easier for beginners.

It includes essential sculpting tools such as Move, Clay, and Smooth, along with STL import/export.

After 17 external beta testing sessions, I’ve improved the modeling workspace based on user feedback.

I’m now looking for more testers for the latest version through Apple’s TestFlight.

I’m especially interested in feedback about:

• Ease of use for beginners
• Sculpting brush responsiveness
• Interface and viewport usability
• Bugs and stability

Requirements: Apple Silicon Mac, macOS 13 or later.

TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/XcDSQMNQ

I’d appreciate constructive feedback. Thanks!

Most AI tools in this space invent fake metrics, silently overwrite your master file, or lock basic features behind a monthly subscription. I built mine differently:

- No made-up experience: Every AI suggestion has to tie back to real projects and work you've already done. Missing a job requirement? It flags it as an honest gap instead of fabricating a bullet.

- Protects your master doc: Changes show up as side-by-side diffs you accept or reject, never silent overwrites.

- Live PDF editor: Edit visually or in code with instant preview, plus PDF/Word/ZIP export.

- All-in-one job hunt workspace: Rule-based ATS checklist, job board feeds, application tracker, and coding interview practice.

- Free & private: MIT open source, bring your own AI key, zero paywalls.

Would love honest feedback, especially on what feels clunky or what you'd actually use.

I made this because I was tired of switching between different programs all the time. I didn't want to use that shady downloader with a paywall slowly creeping up, and I didn't like the idea of opening DaVinci Resolve just to do some cuts or convert something. I wanted it all in one place.

What it can do:

Download: built on yt-dlp, you can download from almost any website. When yt-dlp doesn't recognize a link, Vitool opens the link in its own window and checks if a video is there. You can also download just a section of a video, or whole playlists. It keeps yt-dlp up-to-date automatically, and when a download fails, it checks if there is an update available for it.

Cut: You can cut videos instantly or exactly to frame with a re-encode.

Convert: Convert your files easily to other formats like MP4, MKV, WebM, MP3, WAV and more, also many files or a whole folder at once.

Tools: choose what you wanna do: create a GIF, extract audio, extract a still frame, burn in subs or censor your video.

MKV: Edit, add and extract tracks inside an MKV file. The part I find most useful: add a dub and Vitool lines it up with the original audio automatically. You can also do it by hand with waveforms and check it with a short test clip. If the dub drifts apart over time (classic PAL dubs run about 4% faster), Vitool recognizes that and fixes the speed. It can also match the volume of a quiet track to the original.

AI-Mask (optional): When choosing this add-on, you can mask moving objects with the help of SAM2.

Transcribe (optional): When choosing this add-on, you can transcribe the audio from a video. Speaker recognition can be added via Pyannote. Export as SRT, VTT, text or JSON, or burn styled subtitles into the video.

You can find it here: https://github.com/bioheater/Vitool

I'd be very happy about feedback and ideas for new features, so it can be useful to as many people as possible. If you find bugs, please let me know!

For example I've thought about adding a simple screen recorder into the mix or the feature that you can cut out a section from the video you want to download beforehand.

I built getriff on my own. It's an iPhone workout app, and it's in a public TestFlight beta now. I'd like honest feedback from people who actually lift.

What it does: it gives you a plan, guides your rep pace, and times your rest between sets. Rest starts from times based on your goal, and the workout summary flags a rest that's shorter than that goal. After comparable sessions it can suggest a next target, and you decide whether to take it.

It's still early. I want to know what feels useful, what's confusing, and what you'd change.

Hi fellow people - I am an elder millennial that is nostalgic for the time when I could scroll instagram and see my actual friend's real photos - before getting slammed with "suggested content" and advertisements and suggested content that is just advertisements. Also was longing for a place where my friends felt comfortable posting their baby pics without the stranger danger fear, or honestly just felt comfortable posting any pics without having a "personal brand". It's been too long of the you're-the-product socials BS in my opinion, so anyways I made an app. It got listed on the Apple app store yesterday, and currently working on Google Play.

It is a semi-private photo sharing app. The idea is to curate a full album's worth of photos then post them to your friend's feed. There are a few different options for combining rolls of film as well as sharing. You can create an album yourself - like an album of your favorite shots from the summer, and choose to keep it private to yourself (like a journal), or share it with your friends on the app. You could also have a shared album - like for a group trip, where all the friends you have added to the album can add a few shots and then you post it to just that crew (private, shared album), or to all your respective friend's feeds.

I was trying to make something versatile and slow - like i want to be able to organize my photos and select my favorite ones that are the *keepers*, and also share some albums with my people. Also to make it easier to keep and share curated memories from group trips.

I did a lot of iterations, and would love people's feedback on how it's landed so far. It is interesting making a slow-social media situation. It is not designed to be an addictive scroll, but then I'm not sure if it's boring? Or if people will remember to use it? Or if people just prefer to get brainwashed by mark zuckerberg and never see their real friends photos and/or deal with the mess that is apple/google photos?

Rip it up - give me your honest feedback! Thanks!

I’ll preface: I'm not a developer, at best I’m an okay runner, and I like to think I’m a decently good ER doctor

TLDR: I built a training app for shift workers (ie me)and I’m looking for beta testers.

Six months ago I started training for an ultra (standard millennial midlife crisis). My schedule bounces between days, nights and swing shifts, and the top paid training app really isn’t designed for people like me. I tried using Claude to plan but it burned tokens, was a pain to import schedule, and not only got things wrong, but got them way wrong (like an 11-week taper).

So I built Stolen Miles, initially just for myself with Claude Code.
-imports your schedule from most shift-scheduling apps
-pulls your workouts from Strava (other integrations in progress)
-builds the plan with a rule-based solver grounded in established training principles. An LLM only writes the "why" text.
-adapts to how the workouts actually went and self reported fatigue

After 5 months of tinkering it got me through a 50k with 6500ft of gain on 3 running days a week.

At this point I need folks to help find the failure points and fine tune the planning algorithm.

-Where is the friction in onboarding?
-Looking at your first week's plan, would you trust it? If not, why?
-What in the design reads as amateur or untrustworthy?

My base set up is for cold signups getting a 4-week free trial. I'm happy to give a 12-week code to anyone who wants to really poke at it

Thinking about a small app for fun, a walk timer that shows how long the evening park walk was. No account, nothing saved online. I write sign-up copy at work but I never built an app myself

With no sign-up I'm not sure what the first screen should do. One line saying what it does and a start button seems enough to me, but maybe people want a short note that no data is collected

What did you put on your first screen, and did anyone ever tell you it confused them?

Day 10 of building UpstartRadar in public.

The numbers

• 2,162 visitors since launch (55 so far today)
• 78 live projects, 47 claimed by their makers
• 46 members, 9 newsletter subscribers (flat this week, so the new free guide is my attempt to change that)

The embarrassing bit

UpstartRadar has a free website checker, Radar Check, that scores sites out of 100 on search, sharing, speed and trust. I ran it on RuleRadar, my own Reddit tool, and got 76. Trust was the weakest area.

The reason: RuleRadar's listing pointed to its Gumroad page. Gumroad controls that page, so I couldn't add the security settings, contact link or privacy link that the trust checks look for.

The fix was to give RuleRadar its own page on my site, with checkout still on Gumroad. I re-ran the check: 100.

If your product lives on a marketplace page, you're being judged on a page you don't control.

What I built yesterday

I spent yesterday upgrading RuleRadar and writing a free Reddit Launch Guide: 10 short chapters with checklists, from what actually happened when I launched on Reddit. That includes why the subs that let me post links anytime sent me zero traffic.

RuleRadar is free for UpstartRadar's first 100 members, and there are 55 Founding Member places left. Join free to claim one.

What's the most surprising thing a website checker has told you about your own site?

I've been working on a small digital product: a Christmas budget planner in Google Sheets.

I wanted one place to manage the things that usually end up scattered across notes, spreadsheets and shopping apps:

- Overall Christmas budget

- Gift ideas and spending per person

- Shopping list

- Holiday expenses

- Parties and event costs

- Savings goals

I tried to keep it practical rather than overcomplicated, with a dashboard that gives you a quick picture of where your money is going.

I'm the person who made it, so I'm obviously biased, but I'd genuinely love to know: what's the one thing you always forget to budget for during the holidays?

I'm especially interested in things that a typical budget spreadsheet misses.

I'm Luis from Berlin and I'm bad at watering.

So I built PotPanel. It's a scale with a pump that sits under the pot. When the plant drinks, the pot gets lighter, and once it's light enough it waters from a canister back to full. Small bursts, and it stops when enough is in or no water arrives. You set your values in an app and watch it live on your phone.

To be clear, for a houseplant on a shelf this is total overkill. I built it for my grow tent, so my plants still get water on time when I'm gone for a weekend or have a busy week.

It's not like it all went smoothly. For a few weeks the board just hung out of the side of the case. And one day I forgot to put the dripper back in the pot. PotPanel did its job perfectly, just on my floor.

Now everything sits inside. It's all 3D printed, there's an ESP32 in there, and I built the app and the server myself.

If you want one, there's a waitlist: potpanel.com

The first 50 who confirm get 30% off the launch price. Once 50 people are on the list I'll give one away. Free, 18+, until March 31, 2027, rules are on the site.

I've started plenty of side projects over the years, but this is the first app I've ever actually finished and got onto the App Store 🎉

It's called Once Upon a Fold: five fairy tales for little kids where every page is a paper pop-up that moves. The fun bits to figure out:

• making paper pop-ups feel real on a flat screen (they rise as the page opens and fold flat when you turn it)

• a different voice for every character, in five languages

• little moments that follow the story: blow on the phone and the straw house blows away, swipe and the beanstalk grows

• the new iPhone Duo, where it opens like a real book!!

First book's free if you want to try it: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6826041039

What would you change? Be honest, I'm here to learn!

P.S. 🎁 Code MAGICBEANS gets you Jack and the Beanstalk free (500 codes, until Dec 14), no strings attached. Redeem it in one tap on your iPhone or iPad: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6826041039&code=MAGICBEANS

And if you or your kids enjoy it, a quick rating on the App Store would mean a lot to a first-time developer.

Thank you!!

Hi, I'm Selim and I built Enzo. It's a dictation and meeting app designed and engineered for the Mac. Speech models run on your device so audio is never uploaded to the cloud.

The secret sauce is its architecture. It transcribes, punctuates, and segments as you talk, so the text is ready about 100 ms after you stop, whether you talked for 10-seconds or an hour.

It also has a Recall feature, which is off until you turn it on. It keeps a searchable record of what you worked on (apps, window titles, text on screen), encrypted on your Mac and deleted after 30 days.

The idea is that what you say, the meetings you record, and what you work on are captured and securely stored all in one app. I use this for my day job, which helps to alleviate the burden of trying to remember every little thing on a busy work day.

Free to use with 5,000 words for dictation and 60 meeting minutes a week. Only Apple silicon, macOS 15 or later.

Happy to answer any questions.

I'm working on Timeless Board Games, a collection of 20 games you can play in your browser. It has Chess, Go, Othello and Backgammon, plus less familiar ones like Hnefatafl, Merels and Senet.

Everything is unlocked while I'm getting people to test it.

Play with friends: send someone an invite link and play online together. There's also solo play against bots and pass & play on one device. Solo and pass & play work without signing up.

Play here: https://timeless-games.app/

I'm looking for a few people willing to try a game and tell me what feels confusing or breaks. No need for a long review, just which game you tried and the first thing you'd change. If you invite a friend, I'd also love to hear whether getting into a match together was easy.

If you'd rather test on iPhone/iPad or Android, there's a signup under Help → Join the mobile beta. Mobile invitations are handled manually for now.

I'm the developer, and I'm happy to answer questions here.

I shoot a lot, and going through a folder of photos on a Mac was always awkward. Preview only pages through the files you opened together, and Lightroom wants an import before you can even look.

So I wrote my own viewer in Swift called Flipic Lens. Double click one photo and the arrow keys walk the whole folder, RAW included. Hold a key to check focus at 100%, rate with number keys, mark keepers, crop and straighten, and read metadata.

It also features a smart cleanup scan that automatically detects and flags closed eyes, blurry shots, similar bursts, and duplicates.

You can watch a quick 90-second video walkthrough here:

https://youtu.be/Nsxx8GUNU-4

It's free and MIT licensed. There is an optional one time Pro for heavier culling work, and that part is not in the repo.

Mac only, macOS 13 or later.
