I've been working on a minimal, keyboard-driven Mac app that records and transcribes your meetings on device, similar to MacWhisper but way more minimal and simple. I originally built it for myself because I kept forgetting to start MacWhisper before calls. It uses Apple APIs to capture the mic and system audio, diarises it, and gives you a markdown transcript at the end. What I quite like about it is that during the call you can mark key moments, which then get inserted into the transcript at the right time. So if you do hand it to an LLM to summarise, it knows what was important.

https://cotect.dev I was frustrated with not being able to properly review code changes that agents make, looking for a middle ground between VSC and Claude Code. So I built one. Still in early development but its working (mostly) and I hope dogfooding will get me all the way to something great :)

What issue do you have specific with reviewing ai code?

Terminal hunks speed by and I want to review the changes locally before they are on GitHub. Looking through VSC is very slow because it's aimed at writing, not reading, code. In cotect you can move through the repository quickly with WASD and you can approve/comment on hunks that you've viewed and any comments you leave you can copy all at once so you can pipe them down to your agent at once instead of interrupting its work every time you find an issue (or otherwise you forget about that issue - yes I have ADHD).

I'm building a context engine for all the code and docs in your company, and expose it via a collaborative zoomable UI + CLI , where you can collaborate with your co-workers and agents.

We map technical debt, agent readiness, code complexity, security scanning, bus factor so you can easily see how all the software in your company runs.

Got the top spot in What Are You Working On in Feb 2025 and then started a company around it at https://getcomper.ai . We got a pre-seed investment, then got some ex-Miro folk on board and are building the product at breakneck speed.

One of the coolest things is that we've got an incremental git blame engine built on top of GitOxide as our backend is fully built on Rust.

https://raizensoft.com - Game development tutorials and resources for code-centric frameworks (libGDX, LWJGL, MonoGame, etc). All articles are written by me and I've been running the site for 10 months to share my passion and technical knowledge. 200+ articles so far and I'm planning to add more.

You wrote 200+ articles in 10 months?

It's possible if you have wide or deep domain knowledge. Back in 2007 I made a Q&A website related to the open source FirebirdSQL database with around 350 articles in about one month. Although, those were very short and I had a huge archive from a mailing list with multiple years of questions and answers to source from.

10 months is a long time. You can write one article per day and do it easily.

https://getkakeibo.com - an extremely simple app to get your finances in order, based on the kakeibo method. You make a plan for your month (income, fixed expenses) and then you track your expenses daily, categorising them into simple buckets: wants, needs, culture and unexpected. At the end of the month, the app guides you through a reflection flow where you can learn about your habits and think about what you want…

> I'm having a lot of trouble with distribution Maybe add a link to playstore/appstore under the generated promo code small things like this have outsized effect

so true, I totally missed that. I will add it as soon as I can, thank you!

I tried to get a promo code for android (twice - on WiFi and data) both times I got that "this code has expired".

oh no, I'm so sorry about this. I generated the codes some time ago when I posted a "Show HN" post, and forgot that they expired at the end of May. I'll generate new ones and let you know when available. thanks a lot for the heads up!

We are building local (Baltics) marketplace for teambuilding events.

Ever since I took on teamlead responsibilities in my daily job, it's been a recurring challenge to organize fun and engaging activities for a team. Providers are usually small businesses, so they all handle enquires, booking and payments to the best of their ability. That usually means exhausting back and forth to get and compare multiple offers.

Instead, we provide curated list of activity providers to choose from, and then handle communication, invoicing and disputes\returns, if needed.

We have got overwhelmingly good feedback from HRs, responsible for team event bookings, and now trying to grow vendors to launch publicly.

Is there a way to import expenses? It's a bit annoying if I have to enter them one by one on my phone, when I can easily get an export from my bank account on my desktop
