I've been working on creating more practice tests for the Digital SAT at https://digitest.io/.

For those that don't know, the SAT is fully digital now and there are only 6 official practice tests available. So, with the help of AI, we created a platform with more tests to practice from.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The parent comment says they launched in Jan 2022. Jan 2022 to Jan 2023 was a down market.

It will not last , my bet is on that, who knows if it’s attributed to luck or if the algorithm has solved entropy.

Good algorithms make the market more efficient, and this remark of yours about the future being unpredictable probably isn’t as great of a display of wittiness as you imagined.

Interactive Emails! AMP4Email and interactive html emails are finally starting to gain traction but developing the emails is still a total pain so I'm building a company (https://zaymo.com) that makes interactive email easy. We have pre-built interactive widgets for e-commerce and a drag-and-drop builder to add them to any existing template. Seeing conversion boost of 40-90%

I'm working on a Telegram-based all-in-one personal life tracker.

Apparently, Telegram bots provide functionality that allows creating UI resembling native apps, with the bonus of not having to install anything besides Telegram, as well as not having to ask any app stores for approval. Combined with chat-based UX, it fits perfectly for tracking things.

"Boring enterprise software". A manufacturing focused ERP system using SvelteKit and SQL Server. These systems are typically made with Java and it's becoming clear to me that it's massive overkill when SQL Server is (or can be) doing most of the work and the application is (or can be) a thin layer between the user and the database. Using only one language, with perfectly matched types and validation schemas for both…

Interesting. I am also working in similar space. Lot of niche ideas that would be sustainable SaaS products but industry is sales driven and requires industry connections. I'd be interested to know further on your offering

www.searchsecdata.com, like "google trends" for 10-k filings that public companies submit to the SEC. Currently supports full-text search on almost all 10-k filings for current S&P 500 and Russell 2000 companies for the last 20 years.

Good stuff! Few suggestions: - add year range, like 2019-2024 - bold searched word in results; italic is not so visible - custom table results per page (25, 50, 100) - export to csv of all results in table Did you scraped all text into database, or search through bunch of text files?

Thanks for the suggestions! Yeah I scraped the annual reports from the SEC website, and built a database of the results. Lots of malformed xml to deal with
