3. Show HN: Launching BookMe – Simplify Your Appointment Scheduling Process
URL: https://bookme.pricoder.com/
作者: oaba_omar
It seems there’s no text provided for translation. Could you please provide the content you would like me to translate?: Hey, HN community
I’m Omar, and I’m excited to share something I’ve been working on BookMe! As someone who’s juggled the chaos of appointment scheduling, I built BookMe to make life easier for freelancers, small business owners, and anyone needing a better way to manage their bookings.
With BookMe, you can:
- Generate Simple Booking Links: Shareable links that let clients book appointments without the back-and-forth.
- Customize Approval Processes: Choose between auto-approval or manual validation based on what works best for you.
- Focus on What Matters: Let BookMe handle your calendar while you focus on growing your business.
I’m offering free early access to HN members who want to test it out. Your feedback will be crucial in helping me refine the platform. If you’re interested, check it out here: https://bookme.pricoder.com/.
Looking forward to your thoughts, suggestions, and any questions you might have!
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

4. Show HN: An API that returns random Alan Perlis epigrams
URL: https://perl.is/
作者: chriscbr
Could you please provide the text that you would like translated?: Alan Perlis was a computer scientist known for being the first recipient of the Turing Award and for his contributions to the ALGOL and APL languages.
Among his other work, he published a series of epigrams in 1982 about computers and programming that have since been widely quoted. I like these quotes for being humorous and sometimes hiding nuggets of wisdom, so I had the idea of making a website and API that puts them prominently on display.
This project was also just an excuse for myself to try out some new tools like Fly.io and using AI code editing tools to build frontends with React (so far my opinion with the latter is that it’s helpful, but it still requires a lot of hand holding).

5. Show HN: QuCast – Everyone can generate AI podcasts
URL: https://qucast.vercel.app
作者: jerryqu1
It seems you’ve only provided a heading without any specific content to translate. Could you please provide the text you would like translated?: Hey! I’m building a podcast app that allows the listeners to generate their own podcasts.
I listen to a lot of Huberman. While I’m driving, walking, working out, or anywhere else I want to listen to something. But I’ve run out of Huberman content & find myself wanting more.
With life-like LLMs & TTS becoming ever cheaper, I thought why don’t I just generate my own? In QuCast you can enter a topic or URL to base a podcast episode on. You can then chat to an outline to refine it in whatever way you want, then generate the speech.
I love the podcast format, & find popping essays, articles, or research papers in it work fairly well. I’m not sure if something like this already exists? There are definitely podcast generators for creators but why not for the listeners themselves? Maybe it was too expensive before, but my math works out to about 2 cents for a 10 minute podcast (more if you want a better voice like ElevenLabs).
Anyways, let me know what y’all think! To generate your own you’ll need to download the app. And yes, this was mainly hacked together over a week using Cursor (It built that nice auto scrolling transcript view in the app all by itself?!). Mobile app + Website + Backend. Podcasts/outlines are written by Claude. Voice is from Google (free experimental).

7. Show HN: Tagle – Discover Social Profiles Locally Based on Shared Interests
作者: danielmeischl
Could you please provide the text you’d like me to translate?: Hey HN,
I’m excited to introduce Tagle, an app that helps people discover others around them based on real interests rather than superficial social profiles.
What it does:
• Find people locally who share your passions using flexible interest tags. • Users can unlock social profiles (like Instagram, X) to connect directly. • It’s not about superficial browsing, but about building meaningful connections through niche interests and hobbies.
I’ve built Tagle to give users a way to connect authentically by focusing on what matters to them—whether it’s discovering fellow hobbyists nearby or engaging with people who have similar passions.
Why I built it:
Most social platforms focus on global interactions, but I wanted to create a tool that helps people connect locally through shared, genuine interests. It bridges the gap between the online world and real-world interactions by highlighting what people actually care about.
Looking for feedback:
I’d love to hear any feedback from the community— thoughts on the concept, ideas for improvement, or even potential challenges I might face. The app is currently available on the App Store, and I’m eager to learn what works and what could be better.
Thanks for your time!

I would love any feedback you may have!

URL: https://www.mysmscheck.com/
作者: bobbyswinson
Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: One of my sites got hit with a card testing attack April 2023. Tried all of Stripe’s recommendations, none worked. What stopped the attack and loss of money was just a 1-time SMS verification with a real phone number. This service just makes the process much simpler.

19. Show HN: I’ve Built a Free Alternative ToAhrefs and SEMrush (Free SEO Tool))
URL: https://www.theseolabs.com/
作者: damienl
I’m here to help with translations! However, it seems that you’ve provided only the word “Description.” If you have a specific text you’d like me to translate, please share it, and I’ll get right on it!: I’ve always found SEO tools like Ahrefs and SEMrush to be incredibly useful but prohibitively expensive for many users. That’s why I created Theseolabs, a completely free SEO research tool aimed at becoming the “Photopea of SEO.”
It’s still early and I focused on Keyword research tools, but roadmap include domain and serp data, backlinks to become a global seo tool competing with Ahrefs and SEMrush while remaining completely free

22. Show HN: Like OG Instagram X Myspace
URL: https://wave-social.vercel.app/
作者: bschmidt1
Certainly! Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: A pretty standard social media app with usual suspects:
- Post photos with comments
- Comment on photos
- Follow people
- DM people
- “Like” posts (likes are private to you)
And a few features long forgotten in social media:
- Fully customize your profile with HTML/CSS
- Comment on another person’s profile
It’s kinda slow because the FE is on Vercel (free) and the BE is with some other stuff on a Raspberry Pi in my apartment with little caching.
If people use it, I’ll move it to a big boy setup.

23. Show HN: Citrus Search – Select a paper, explore related research
URL: https://citrus-search.com/
作者: brocrates
I’m sorry, but it seems you didn’t provide any text for me to translate. Could you please share the text you’d like translated?: Citrus Search is a similarity-based search engine for scientific literature: select a paper, start the search and jump right to the heart of your research domain. Get an overview of important contributions from seminal papers to the state of the art.
Searching for research with text queries can cumbersome: queries of just a couple of words are not a very high-fidelity signal, leading to lots of false positives in the search results. Also, you run the risk of missing papers which simply use different taxonomy than your query.
This is where similarity-based search can be a great complement: select a paper you already know, and we take you right to closely related research. Citrus offers two ways to discover related work:
- Citation Network: Finds papers with similar connections in the citation graph
- Content: Finds papers with similar ideas in their abstract and title
Behind the scenes, the similarity of papers is computed using graph and text-based machine-learning algorithms.
We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

24. Show HN: Pacer – Read Faster on the Web
URL: https://readwithpacer.weebly.com/
作者: lakshayr
It seems like you might be referring to a specific piece of text to translate. Please provide the text you would like me to translate, and I’ll be happy to help!: Pacer is a Chrome extension designed to help you read faster on the web. I created it out of frustration with alternatives that required copying and pasting text repeatedly.
It’s based on a technique called RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation), where words are shown one at a time in quick succession to minimize the time spent reading. However, unlike traditional RSVP, the words in Pacer aren’t fixed in one place.
It’s been helpful for me and several friends, and I’d love for you to try it as well. It’s not perfect and there are things that are up for improvement but am sharing it here for everybody to use. Pacer is free and available on the Chrome Web Store.
Give it a try, and I’d appreciate any feedback on how I can improve it to make your web reading experience even better.

25. Show HN: P5lab – a canvas-style UI for p5.js
URL: https://github.com/nicolaspasqualis/p5lab
作者: nnnnico
Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: I made this as a more serious playground for algorithmic design with p5.js after collecting some patterns/tools i’ve been using through my projects
It’s basically a figma-style canvas but for running instances of p5.js code, with gui controllers and other utilities.
Been working on it for a couple of weeks, the code is messy, but it works ok for experimenting and I need to shift focus to other stuff for now.
Hope you find it interesting!

27. Show HN: FormLite – Turn Your Plain Google Forms into Typeform Interface
作者: s4tr2
Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: Hello HN,
I’m the maker of FormLite, a tool that allows anyone to transform a basic Google Form into a stunning, interactive Typeform-like interface in just a few clicks.
I’ve always appreciated the simplicity and power of Google Forms, but the lack of customization and polished UX was a common complaint I heard from users.
This is especially important when collecting responses from users, leads, or clients where first impressions matter.
With the rise of no-code tools, I wanted to create something that takes the familiar functionality of Google Forms and turns it into an elegant and modern experience without needing to rebuild the form from scratch.
Here’s how it works:
- Sign up at formlite.co
- Add a public Google Form URL, (As of yet, it doesn’t work on forms which require signing in).
- FormLite instantly transforms the form, adding animations, smooth transitions, and an overall cleaner design, similar to what Typeform offers.
From there, you can share the newly designed form link with your audience.
FormLite preserves all the original features of Google Forms, while upgrading the look and feel to something more engaging.
I’ve also added a demo form at the FormLite homepage, so you can see how the transformation works in action.
Please feel free to try it out and let me know what you think. I’d love to hear your feedback or answer any questions about the tech behind it.
Thanks for checking it out!

30. Show HN: Innerpage – An open-source Anonymous Digital Journal
URL: https://github.com/innerpage
作者: _xtbhyn
Please provide the text you would like me to translate.: Hello
I made Innerpage for myself, to pour out sensitive thoughts and feelings without worrying about privacy.
Since this habit of putting out tangled, stressful thoughts into words did seem to have tangible benefits overtime, I’m open-sourcing it for others who might find it helpful.
Innerpage doesn’t need email or whatever to create an account. No tracking. Nothing. Just setup your account with username and password, you’re done!
You can self-host or use the managed version (link is in the repo)
Do give it a shot and let me know how to make it better. I particularly need the following feedback:
1. What are your first impressions? 2. What features should I include into Innerpage? 3. Is the repo descriptions fine and easy to follow?
Thanks for reading

Key features:
- Automatic contract type detection

作者: ptrpavlik
Please provide the text you would like to have translated.: IndiePitcher (https://indiepitcher.com) is email solution for tech companies allowing to send transactional/marketing emails, and manage email list subscriptions (like stripe subscription management portal).
An interesting fact for this community might be that the backend is a monolith written using Swift programming language (that one from Apple to make iPhone apps) using Vapor framework (https://vapor.codes), so I thought that I’d share it here.

作者: moviesofmood
It seems you’ve provided a heading without any specific content to translate. Please share the text you’d like me to translate, and I’ll be happy to assist you!: Hey HN,
I tried Canny to collect customer feedback and build the right features, but…
1. It’s has way too many features for a solo dev 2. $99/month… really?
So I built a free alternative called FeatureFlow.tech:
- Collect feedback from your customers
- Prioritize features
- Build a product users love.
It is also currently live on Product Hunt -> https://www.producthunt.com/products/featureflow-2
You vote will mean a lot to me :)

40. Show HN: Phinxer, open source Web Analytics
URL: https://phinxer.com/
作者: gonzan
It seems like you’ve only provided the word “Description.” Could you please provide a complete text or context that you would like me to translate?: I built Phinxer for my own use a year or so ago because existing alternatives felt bad to use (Google Analytics) becasue of excessive tracking or were really expensive. I was running an app that had ~350k pageviews at the time but was only making $80 from ads so paying $50 a month for analytics sounded silly.
The actual cost of running this is only a fraction of that, so I’m now releasing the tool I wish I had found back then. It’s significantly cheaper than all web analytics alternatives at $10 per 1M events that don’t expire. So if you use less than 1M events you can use the events for up to a year (alternatives cost $60-$140/mo for the same volume).
Phinxer is also open source! It’s built with an Express backend, React app, Postgres for general data and ClickHouse for events. I used [Vike](https://vike.dev/) which is based in Vite for this project and was very pleasantly surprised, it’s what I always wished Next.js was.
