Looks promising. I'm building an AI video editor and multi tool calls take >30s using Gemini. This would be a a game changer if Jev can take that down to single digits at p95.

-> But how you get authentic and engaging for bank statement converter? People search for it to solve particular problem in the first place, not to hear your life story. That's the hard part :)

You can stand out by being authentic. Your face on the video, etc. Even writing it yourself genuinely instead of using an LLM. ex the article felt authentic.

Hey, I'm building exactly this. I ask it to add subtitles, text effects, color grade my clips, cut out the silent parts. 100% open source https://github.com/DonkeyCut/Donkey

How does it work? Im building a video editor and right now it has access to nearly 100 tools. Would be good to learn the techniques you used to make tool discovery more efficient.

I'm building an open source video editor fulltime. https://github.com/DonkeyUseCorp/Donkey Currently doing this bootstrapped. I'm getting a lot of feedback from free users and barely any from those who pay. Q

Appreciate the candid feedback. I'm working on this every day. What bugs did you run into? Trying to make AI video editing best in class.

I feel the same way too. I also open sourced a video editor. It's free to use and you can buy credits whenever you want to access AI specific features.

Nice project. I’m building a similar project. It’s open source too. https://github.com/DonkeyUseCorp/Donkey It’s mostly a web app with a native swift companion app to access local resources like TTS, file storage and v

I can't believe iMovie doesn't have text overlays so I'm building a replacement at cut.donkeyuse.com It's opensource and more modern.

If you can afford it, I highly recommend quitting and going independent at least for a while. It’s so much fun building right now.

Auto makers have always been bad at software. They just don’t care. Tesla is an exception.

Great work. Did you consider buying instead of building? I’ve worked at organizations that built similar systems, but what was often lacking was developer experience, observability, and scalability, basically everything outside of core func

Submitted. I'm building a copilot for salespeople on LinkedIn (heysalesman.com). I'm using the product to sell the product. Looking forward to the feedback.

In university I noticed that some of my classmates just sat there and didn't take notes. So I stopped as well. I sat there, listened and then took pictures of the blackboard. This method worked better for me and I noticed that I perfor

Cool. I'm building something like this on the side. It's called bannerbox.io. The difference is that it requires no code, has a WYSIWYG editor and works everywhere.

I share the same dream; of one day charting my own path. I've been doing things a bit differently. I've kept my job and am building my product (www.bannerbox.io) on the side. I wake up early and dedicate a few hours to it in the m

Bannerbox: https://bannerbox.io Embed banners and modals onto your site with no code. I spent the last 7 years as a growth engineer building banners and modals. Each time there was a custom requirement. I've always thought

I'm in the same boat. Been working on www.bannerbox.io for 2 years, no customers, no revenue. Marketing is important to the success of any project. This year I plan on focusing at least 50% of my time creating content; mostly blog post

What is your business? I'm starting out now at $0 profits. Hope to change that this year.

I've spend many years in Growth engineering. We often get asked to build this banner or that modal. I've always felt there should be a Wix kind of experience, but for smaller components. I didn't find one so I decided to buil

What alternative approaches did you try? Would loading a placeholder image for the map and transitioning it in when ready help?

This looks really nice, especially collaborative editing. I've been playing around with draft.js and also looked at other libs. How does this handle maintaining text selection while interacting with a drop down list (ex. font size drop

Apple is all about design and user experience. They probably hate the way a micro USB cable looks and it can only go in one way. Also they might want control of the peripheral market. I'm just guessing here.
