Show HN: A "Comments Layer" for the Internet SwearBy is an iOS app that provides a "comments section" and live chat for every URL. Load SwearBy in Safari, Chrome, and many other apps (Airbnb, Spotify, Redfin, Amazon...) Just tap the "Share" button from your current page. Basically - you get a "Twitter thread" and a "Youtube Live Chat" on every URL. LMK what you think :) https://bit.ly/3P17AKj February 9, 2024 at 09:41PM

Show HN: Presentations for your webcam, not a projector https://bit.ly/3HVJpIY

Show HN: Presentations for your webcam, not a projector CueCam Presenter is my Mac app (actually a suite of Mac and iOS apps) to run better presentations on your webcam. Editing cards should feel natural to anybody used to Markdown. I came to create CueCam as an "embedded entrepreneur". I had some success with my camera app "Shoot Pro Webcam" back in 2020 and built on this by creating squares.tv. As I talked to more and more users, I discovered more opportunities to make their lives easier. I started with features in Shoot (camera options, pausing, drawing etc..).. Then I created Video Pencil (which connects to your computer and lets you draw on your webcam using your iPad). Then I created "Beat Sheet" which lets you run through "smart scripts", controlling Ecamm Live, OBS and mimoLive. CueCam Presenter is how I'm connecting all these elements. It gives you a virtual webcam, virtual mic, and seamlessly connects to Shoot and Video Pencil running on other devices. There are various ways you can use it as a teleprompter while maintaining eye contact. It's taken a lot to get it to this stage. The video pipeline has been through two major iterations and the audio pipeline even more. The UI has evolved and developed to cover the different ways it is understood by different people. Educational discounts are a must for me, as I want to help improve the quality of remote teaching around the world. For other professionals, I believe it transforms the way you interact with people on video calls. It's useful for recording software demos and running live streams. https://bit.ly/3w9McvN February 9, 2024 at 01:37PM

Show HN: DynamiCrafter: Animating Open-Domain Images with Video Diffusion Priors https://bit.ly/3SyWnRM

Show HN: DynamiCrafter: Animating Open-Domain Images with Video Diffusion Priors Hello HN! We have released a major update of our image-to-video diffusion model, DynamiCrafter, with better dynamic, higher resolution, and stronger coherence. DynamiCrafter can animate open-domain still images based on text prompt by leveraging the pre-trained video diffusion priors. Please check our project page and paper for more information. We will continue to improve the model's performance. Comparisons with Stable Video Diffusion and PikaLabs can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NfmIsNAg-g Online demo: https://bit.ly/3uzEnie Our project page: https://bit.ly/3OBc7Tc Arxiv link: https://bit.ly/4bvjxRI https://bit.ly/485S7iI February 7, 2024 at 08:12AM

Show HN: ReadToMe (iOS) turns paper books into audio https://bit.ly/492kzDf

Show HN: ReadToMe (iOS) turns paper books into audio I'm launching something that started as a side project publicly today: ReadToMe, which is an iPhone app that turns paper books and other printed text into audio. Originally this was a Christmas present for my fiancée, who loves books but has an eye problem that makes it hard for her to read more than a few pages at a time. She mostly listens to audiobooks while following along with the paper book, but some books aren't available in audiobook or even e-book form, and all of the existing apps we tried were surprisingly bad at scanning paper books into audio — they make lots of mistakes, include footnotes and page numbers, etc., in a way that really degrades the experience. Being an AI-oriented engineer by training, I had a crack at solving the problem myself, and was pleasantly surprised at how well the proof of concept worked. I then had some time free while shutting down my previous company (Mezli, YC W21), during which I polished up the app to the point you see it at now. The way it works: On the front end, it's a SwiftUI app (mostly written by ChatGPT!) that consists mostly of a document scanner (VNDocumentCameraViewController) and a custom-built audio player. The back end is more complex — book photos are first sent to an OCR API, then some custom code I wrote does a first pass at stitching together and correcting the results. Then, the corrected OCR results are sent to GPT-3.5-turbo for further post-processing and re-stitching together, and finally to a text-to-speech API for conversion to audio. The hardest part of this process was actually getting the GPT calls right — I ended up writing a custom LLM eval framework for making sure the LLM wasn't making edits relative to the true text of the book. A few issues remain, which I'll work on fixing if the app gets a significant amount of traction, including: 1) It can take multiple minutes to get audio back from a scan, especially if it's on the longer side (10+ pages). I'll be able to bring this down by spinning up dedicated servers for the OCR and TTS back-end. 2) The LLM sometimes does TOO good of a job at correcting "mistakes" in book text. This issue crops up particularly often when an author deliberately uses improper grammar, e.g. in dialogue. The app is priced at $9.99/month for up to 250 pages/month right now, which I estimate will just about cover the costs of API calls. I'll be bringing the price point down as the pricing of the required AI APIs comes down. There's also a 3-day free trial if you want to try it out. If you do find this useful, or know somebody who might, I'd appreciate you giving it a try or letting them know! And please let me know if you have any feedback, including issues or feature requests. https://bit.ly/484Yd2A February 5, 2024 at 12:56AM
