    Hahahaha. Goal isn't to read them from the map, just extract the info. But yes, without the chat/other workflows I would concur

    Imported all of the available research on AI, ML, and NLP for the past 10 years. The map is massive but it is still queryable. Posted it on reddit as an AMA, feel free to drop any …

    Posted this on reddit as an AMA and thought I'd share on here. The map has around 100k papers and all of them are grouped semantically (clustered by the ideas discussed in the pape…

    Show HN: Built a tool that turns a keyword into an interactive research map

    I needed to quickly get caught up on a research field (glioblastoma) for a large review paper, was finding it hard as the work is fragmented and hard to integrate (especially when …

    Completely agree - was surprised myself with the response we've received. Saturated market but the 10x cheaper/easier to set up seems to be resonating with other 1-3 person teams. …

    I've heard a lot of good things - seems like the standard for those that don't mind self hosting and managing the alerts. Our goal with this product is to make sms monitoring easil…

    Very true - our goal is to help companies keep their customers amazed. Especially when starting out with early adopters. Though perhaps not something that can scale as easily.

    From a technical standpoint? Or how it works as a user?

    Thanks. It's simple but seems to be a common need. One of those tools many companies end up having to build but keep internal.

    Just looked into Rootly - looks great. This was an mvp launch to test the concept but I'll see about building the multi-cloud setup. Nice to see another Western alum here.

    Haha not quite! We host our main startup (Website + app) on AWS and have been using it for around 7 months internally, it's worked great for us so far. But if something crazy like …

    Not quite - just thought of what I would actually pay for it. Looked at others and saw most done for you solutions were monthly subscriptions ~$9. Couldn't see myself being excited…

    Different use cases, ours is for people who prefer simplicity and just want a text to know if their server goes down. We charge $5 for the year, this service charges $108 (But is a…

    Hi there thanks for purchasing! Currently we have it set to just one endpoint per account (MVP Launch) but let me add support for more today. How many endpoints are you looking to …

    If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? You bring up a good point. I think it to be less of a problem for more established companies th…

    I suppose you're right, unless your server goes down more than 50 times. I saw it as credits that expire in a year, would be a bit scary to offer monitoring in perpetuity for $5 if…

    Right, we ping the servers every minute. Since we charge a one-time fee the credits expire after a year, but the service is scaleable. To answer your question I'll give you some mo…

    Correct. It requires an unauthenticated endpoint that retuns a 200 response. So usually this is the /health endpoint, but as long as we can send a ping it works.

    It's a one-time 4.99 fee (covers a year of monitoring or 50 downtime events).
