1. Show HN: Jean (ICap 25') – Zero-Shot User Understanding
URL: https://www.jeantechnologies.com/
Author: jpolitzki
Description: Hi HN! I'm Jonathan, founder/CTO of Jean (https://www.jeantechnologies.com/) for one-click user understanding to skip onboarding and solve the cold start problem for immediate personalization.
The Problem: Every app asks the same questions about user preferences. Companies waste time and money on lengthy onboarding flows that users hate or hire ML teams that take months to form user identities and aren’t worth the cost. AI requires broad user data to be personalized.
What We Built:
- One click to understand user preferences and context
- Simple API that works with your existing stack
- Open source protocol
Early Results:
- 70% fewer onboarding questions
- 3x user engagement
- Zero cold start
Currently in private beta. Looking for feedback from developers building:
- Personalized recommendations
- Smart chat/UI
- Content ranking
Email: jonathan@irreverent-capital.com
Thanks HN!

5. Show HN: Sell your startup with an embed code
Author: greg387
Description: just built something fun: http://offerbutton.com and it’s 100% free for founders
story time - back in college i built a dating app. making ok money from ads, nothing crazy.
one day, random email hits our help inbox: "interested in acquiring your site, wanna chat?”
It was a brazilian company. It was only by some random chance that I was in that support inbox. Thank god. turned into life-changing exit offer (at least it felt like that at the time). classic right place right time situation.
got me thinking: why isn't there an easy way for buyers to find sellers? Wouldn’t it be cool to sell your business to someone just browsing?
so i built offerbutton - one line of code that lets anyone make an offer to buy your business: that's it. embed it, forget it, wait for offers.
built this entire thing with v0/cursor because everyone said "ai coding isn't ready for real products"
prove them wrong i guess?
Offerbutton is perfect for:
- indie hackers with projects
- creators with media properties
- saas founders testing exit interest
- anyone building in public
works for deals $1k to $10m+.
100% free to embed. no fees. no commitment. It’s free for now for the first people who install it. too many great products die because founders/buyers never find each other.
let's fix that.
who's got something to sell?

15. Show HN: FeedRewind – Read your favorite blog start to finish, at your own pace
Author: ilidemi
Description: Hello HN! Many times I found myself reading someone's blog and realizing I want to learn as much as I can from this person, or that they're covering their niche in a way no one else does. And so I'd want to read their backlog but the only ways to do it are to binge it all at once or to keep a tab open for weeks.
This seemed like an oversight in the RSS functionality but fortunately turned out to be possible to build outside-in. A custom crawler, a lot of XPath heuristics and tuning against 1500 random blogs enable us to reconstruct the archives even when the website is handcrafted and the feed only has 10 last items.
FeedRewind:
- Fetches the blog archives
- Provides a private RSS/email feed, filtered by time range or post categories if you wish it so
- Allows you to set your own pace (e.g. one every weekday morning or a batch every Sunday)
Give it a try if you want to catch up on PG's essays, Bits about Money stories, Dan Luu's longform analysis, or your favorite programming blog. I spent quite some time sourcing high-quality suggestions from HN comment threads and elsewhere, hope there's something that catches your eye. Feedback is always welcome!

16. Show HN: Kamal Handbook, 2nd Edition
URL: https://kamalmanual.com/handbook/
Author: strzibny
Description: Hi fellow readers of HN,
I made a new edition of Kamal Handbook to address the big leap of changes from Kamal 2. A lot had to be rewritten and I made the book even a bit longer and better as much as I could.
Kamal is an imperative deployment tool. It's basically a successor to Capistrano, but for a container era. Kamal 2 is solving the main painpoints people had with version 1:
- auto SSL for single-server deployments
- multiple apps on a single-server
- unifying ENV management with 'kamal deploy'
- faster deploys
I really believe that Kamal is now a better option than Docker Compose or Dokku, perhaps even than Kubernetes (use-case provided).
Compared to my previous HN announcement of the first edition mentioning 300 sales, I now crossed 1000+ sales on Gumroad.
I cut a new preview for SHOW HN again here: https://kamalmanual.com/handbook/first-deploy-preview.pdf

19. Show HN: FastGraphRAG – Better RAG using good old PageRank
URL: https://github.com/circlemind-ai/fast-graphrag
Author: liukidar
Description: Hey there HN! We’re Antonio, Luca, and Yuhang, and we’re excited to introduce Fast GraphRAG, an open-source RAG approach that leverages knowledge graphs and the 25 years old PageRank for better information retrieval and reasoning.
Building a good RAG pipeline these days takes a lot of manual optimizations. Most engineers intuitively start from naive RAG: throw everything in a vector database and hope that semantic search is powerful enough. This can work for use cases where accuracy isn’t too important and hallucinations are tolerable, but it doesn’t work for more difficult queries that involve multi-hop reasoning or more advanced domain understanding. Also, it’s impossible to debug it.
To address these limitations, many engineers find themselves adding extra layers like agent-based preprocessing, custom embeddings, reranking mechanisms, and hybrid search strategies. Much like the early days of machine learning when we manually crafted feature vectors to squeeze out marginal gains, building an effective RAG system often becomes an exercise in crafting engineering “hacks.”
Earlier this year, Microsoft seeded the idea of using Knowledge Graphs for RAG and published GraphRAG - i.e. RAG with Knowledge Graphs. We believe that there is an incredible potential in this idea, but existing implementations are naive in the way they create and explore the graph. That’s why we developed Fast GraphRAG with a new algorithmic approach using good old PageRank.
There are two main challenges when building a reliable RAG system:
(1) Data Noise: Real-world data is often messy. Customer support tickets, chat logs, and other conversational data can include a lot of irrelevant information. If you push noisy data into a vector database, you’re likely to get noisy results.
(2) Domain Specialization: For complex use cases, a RAG system must understand the domain-specific context. This requires creating representations that capture not just the words but the deeper relationships and structures within the data.
Our solution builds on these insights by incorporating knowledge graphs into the RAG pipeline. Knowledge graphs store entities and their relationships, and can help structure data in a way that enables more accurate and context-aware information retrieval. 12 years ago Google announced the knowledge graph we all know about [1]. It was a pioneering move. Now we have LLMs, meaning that people can finally do RAG on their own data with tools that can be as powerful as Google’s original idea.
Before we built this, Antonio was at Amazon, while Luca and Yuhang were finishing their PhDs at Oxford. We had been thinking about this problem for years and we always loved the parallel between pagerank and the human memory [2]. We believe that searching for memories is incredibly similar to searching the web.
Here’s how it works:
- Entity and Relationship Extraction: Fast GraphRAG uses LLMs to extract entities and their relationships from your data and stores them in a graph format [3].
- Query Processing: When you make a query, Fast GraphRAG starts by finding the most relevant entities using vector search, then runs a personalized PageRank algorithm to determine the most important “memories” or pieces of information related to the query [4].
- Incremental Updates: Unlike other graph-based RAG systems, Fast GraphRAG natively supports incremental data insertions. This means you can continuously add new data without reprocessing the entire graph.
- Faster: These design choices make our algorithm faster and more affordable to run than other graph-based RAG systems because we eliminate the need for communities and clustering.
Suppose you’re analyzing a book and want to focus on character interactions, locations, and significant events:
from fast_graphrag import GraphRAG
DOMAIN = "Analyze this story and identify the characters. Focus on how they interact with each other, the locations they explore, and their relationships."
EXAMPLE_QUERIES = [
"What is the significance of Christmas Eve in A Christmas Carol?",
"How does the setting of Victorian London contribute to the story's themes?",
"Describe the chain of events that leads to Scrooge's transformation.",
"How does Dickens use the different spirits (Past, Present, and Future) to guide Scrooge?",
"Why does Dickens choose to divide the story into "staves" rather than chapters?"
]
ENTITY_TYPES = ["Character", "Animal", "Place", "Object", "Activity", "Event"]
grag = GraphRAG(
working_dir="./book_example",
domain=DOMAIN,
example_queries="\n".join(EXAMPLE_QUERIES),
entity_types=ENTITY_TYPES
)
with open("./book.txt") as f:
grag.insert(f.read())
print(grag.query("Who is Scrooge?").response)
This code creates a domain-specific knowledge graph based on your data, example queries, and specified entity types. Then you can query it in plain English while it automatically handles all the data fetching, entity extractions, co-reference resolutions, memory elections, etc. When you add new data, locking and checkpointing is handled for you as well.This is the kind of infrastructure that GenAI apps need to handle large-scale real-world data. Our goal is to give you this infrastructure so that you can focus on what’s important: building great apps for your users without having to care about manually engineering a retrieval pipeline. In the managed service, we also have a suite of UI tools for you to explore and debug your knowledge graph.
We have a free hosted solution with up to 100 monthly requests. When you’re ready to grow, we have paid plans that scale with you. And of course you can self host our open-source engine.

25. Show HN: Tips.io – A Tailwind playground with AI, page management, and theming
URL: https://tips.io
Author: TIPSIO
Description: Hi HN!
My name is Nick and this is my fun side project. Please lay it on me. HN can think of Tips.io as a cracked out Tailwind Playground that has page management and amazing AI integration.
There are a few core ideas:
1) The HTML is the CMS
There are no fields or restrictions. Just hover, click, and start tweaking any HTML. Also, certain elements you click will have special easy edit abilities:
- <img> auto creates an uploader, stock photo picker (or HTML)
- <video> auto creates an uploader, stock video picker (or HTML)
- <svg> auto creates a big icon picker (or HTML)
- <div class="prose"> auto creates a WYSIWYG Editor (or HTML)
2) Slices
Think of these as just individual HTML sections of a page or lil baby single-file components. They are self-contained and isolated so you drag them around easily. The real power comes from reuse across your pages and linking them (aka, one HTML footer updates globally). You can also use "slices" from any other tips.io project for quickly expanding your site with more design options.
3) AI Elements, Not Pages
Another cool concept is you can select any element on an HTML slice an edit that individually vs re-streaming/rebuilding and entire component every time. We support 5 different AI models right now. Some other really intense/cool AI integration is coming soon.
4) Tailwind Everything, No Build Step, & Theming
We have a custom "themer" to make creating Tailwind config files near instant with real-time font trying, color palettes/preset trying, and more. All our Tailwind is automatic and requires zero config instantly. The same Tailwind that magic runs client-side will run server-side so quick no one knows a build step is happening. Tailwind and AI are also a match made in heaven.
Other features:
- Animations
- Zoomable page tree
- Basic Forms (yes on your static site!)
- Analytics
- Redirects, site passwords, and much more.

43. Show HN: Hercules – Open-Source software testing agent
URL: https://testzeus.com/hercules
Author: Smilinrobin
Description: Hey HN,
After spending way too many late nights wrestling with brittle test scripts and UIs that seem to change just to spite me, we decided to do something about it. So we built Hercules, an open-source testing agent aiming to make end-to-end testing of modern web applications less of a Herculean task (pun absolutely intended).
P.S.- Paid solutions can cost upwords of $15000 and still struggle with maintenance.
What is Hercules?
Hercules is an AI-powered testing agent that turns simple Gherkin steps into fully automated end-to-end tests, eliminating the need for coding skills. It leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to reason and perform actions based on test requirements.
Key Features-
- Gherkin In, Results Out: Just provide your tests in Gherkin format, and Hercules executes them automatically, outputting results in JUnit XML and HTML reports.
- Free and Open Source: Hercules is released under the AGPL v3 license, allowing anyone to use, modify, and contribute.
- Salesforce Ready: Capable of handling intricate UIs, Hercules excels in testing platforms like Salesforce.
- No Code Required: Automates Gherkin features without the need for scripting or dealing with selectors.
- Multilingual Support: Supports multiple languages out of the box, facilitating global collaboration.
- Precisely Accurate: Records execution videos and captures network logs for reliable test results.
- No Maintenance: Features auto-healing capabilities to adapt to changes without manual intervention.
- CI/CD Ready: Easily integrates into your CI/CD pipeline and can run in Docker containers.
Why is Hercules Different?
Unlike traditional testing tools, Hercules acts as an intelligent agent that can think, reason, and adapt. It's built on a multi-agent architecture, allowing it to plan and execute tasks based on the provided Gherkin steps. Additionally, it comes packed with tool usage like Browsers, or APIs; and users can build/attach external tools too.

52. Show HN: Dumbo – Hono inspired framework for PHP
URL: https://github.com/notrab/dumbo
Author: notrab
Description: Hey HN, I last PHP professionally over 15 years ago, and I loved it. I switched to Ruby on Rails, then Node/Go/React/GraphQL as there was a lot more demand for those roles. However, PHP is back!
In true JavaScript fashion, I decided to learn PHP again by building a framework to put all the pieces together in my brain.
I absolutely love Hono.dev, and decided to base the PHP framework on that. Dumbo isn't intended to compete with Laravel, Symphony or Slim, if anything, it's something people can use in production, but also contribute to and be used as a learning resource for others.

53. Show HN: The app I built to manage my anxiety
URL: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lume-stress-wellness-coach/id6627339194
Author: mazenkurdi
Description: Hey HN,
I'm excited to introduce Lume to you today! As the developer behind this wellness companion, I created Lume to help people get ahead of their stress and anxiety by alerting them before they even feel it.
Lume isn't just another wellness tracker. It’s built with proactive insights, using patterns in your data to help you understand and manage stress and anxiety in real-time. My own experience inspired this approach – I noticed how shifts in my resting heart rate often correlated with rising stress, and I wanted a way to address it sooner. Lume gives users that early nudge, along with personalized tips to help keep stress in check before it overwhelms.
One thing I’m particularly proud of is how Lume caters to a balanced lifestyle. It’s more than just tracking – Lume’s insights span across daily pillars like sleep, exercise, and mindfulness, making it a well-rounded companion for your mental well-being.
If Lume resonates with you, I’d love your support! Thank you for being a part of this journey toward a calmer, more balanced life:
