Ask HN: What's your startup or product?

#1
I'm getting ready to launch my first rails app, and I thought it would be interesting to hear about the software projects people are developing. It's amazing and inspiring to see what problems people are solving through software. So, what product or app have you developed or are you working on? It can be anything from a full-blown startup to a small side-project to a quick hack.

I help families finding home-care help for their loved ones.

Thanks for your response! What you're doing sounds very rewarding and interesting. I'm assuming that the families you are helping have loved ones who are elderly or may suffer from conditions that prevent them from properly taking care of themselves. Is this the market you're addressing?

We just launched our ReKognition API - best Face.com alternative. (Face Detection/Recognition, plus Gender)& Scene Understanding. And, will launch our 1st App by the end of this Month. http://rekognition.com/

I was playing with your demo page and was curious, how do you handle gender classification? Follow-up would be what are you results in broad ethnicity recognition (based on what I've seen, I can tell you at least tried it). Any attempts into age?
