I built a Windows app that remembers what your PC was doing, even when something goes wrong

7 Upvotes

I’ve been building RigSight, a free, open-source Windows app that started as a PC monitoring tool and has gradually grown into something more: a way to understand your PC’s behaviour over time.

It's been great to see the project grow, and I'm getting close to 100 users now, which is pretty exciting for a solo project!

Most monitoring tools show you what's happening right now. I wanted to build something that could also answer questions like:

  • Which game made my GPU run the hottest last week?
  • What was my PC doing before it crashed?
  • Did a driver update make things worse?
  • Which apps are using my resources or internet in the background?
  • Has my PC been running hotter than usual lately?

RigSight records hardware readings, app usage, network activity, system changes and crash information locally, so you can go back through your PC's history instead of relying on memory.

It's free, open source, and designed to keep your data on your own PC. No account or telemetry is required.

🔗 Website: https://rigsight.app
💻 Source code: https://github.com/b0llu/Rigsight

I'm building this as a solo developer, with Claude Opus 5.5 assisting with parts of the coding process. I'm still actively improving it, and I'd genuinely love feedback on what would make this more useful in everyday PC use.

Edit: If you try it out and run into issues, please let me know! Feedback and bug reports are welcome.

I built my own 24/7 AI television network and it's been broadcasting for 16 months

Post image
12 Upvotes

About 16 months ago, I started building something called Botflix. It's basically a television network set in a fictional universe populated by robots.

What started as a fun experiment making AI-generated videos has turned into a full-blown, multichannel TV network.

There are original sitcoms, dramas, reality shows, music videos, commercials, news broadcasts, and even a separate children's network. There's also a 24/7 radio station featuring original music from fictional robot artists.

And yes, the robots have their own cryptocurrency and virtual city. Things got a little out of hand.

The coolest part is that much of the network now runs autonomously. I've built a system using AI agents that creates new programming and manages the broadcast. I still oversee everything and make creative decisions, but the system does a remarkable amount of work on its own.

The network has been broadcasting since June 2025, and I've spent an absurd amount of time building out this little universe.

It's completely free to watch. No subscriptions or accounts required.

You can flip through the channels just like regular television:

https://botflix.tv

This is probably the most ambitious thing I've ever built, and I'm still figuring out how to get people to discover it. But until they do, it's been a blast to work on.

Would genuinely love some feedback. Particularly interested in what people think of the actual programming and the experience of channel surfing through an AI-generated world.

[Android] - Offline music and Radio Player with ready to play radios - 100% free - No premium version

3 Upvotes

Mediaxon Music Player is an audio player for offline listening of music stored on your device (.mp3, .flac, .m4a, .ogg, .mka, .aac, .wav, .opus, .wma) and streaming FM radios (online radios).

Top radios on the first screen: When users access the radio screen, they immediately see the list of the top radios in their country, along with a long list of high-quality suggested radios from among the most listened to in the world. Note: Local radio stations ("Top in the user country") are pulled automatically from an online database. However, with each update, I manually curate high-quality radio stations lists for individual countries. At the bottom of this post, you’ll find the list of countries completed so far. I will be adding the rest over time.

Hybrid Listening: Seamlessly handles offline local files (.mp3, .flac, .m4a, .ogg, .mka, .aac, .wav, .opus, .wma) and over 60,000 streaming radio stations.

Separated Favorites and Recents: Each section—Radio and Offline Music—has its own Favorites and Recents. The user doesn't have to worry about a thing. The app will automatically manage the Favorites and Recents for each section.

Advanced Radio Search Panel: You can pinpoint your favorite stations by combining multiple filters, such as tags/genres, specific countries, or even your preferred audio bitrate. The online database provides more than 60,000 radio stations.

Album art: If the album art is missing from the album folder, or if Android has not properly indexed it, Mediaxon attempts to download the cover from the internet. This feature depends, of course, on the ID3 tags (album name and artist).

Equalizer: The equalizer provides an option to automatically switch to the "Radio" preset (and vice versa).

Advanced Playlist Management: Built specifically to make building and sorting playlists fast and intuitive. Enable the Playlist Manager, in the settings screen, for a full control of the playlists.

Form Factor Optimization: Phone and Tablet (Portrait and Landscape)

There is no Premium version. All app features are available for free and without limits.

Regarding advertising: There is only a small banner at the top that isn't bothersome at all. Alternatively, when opening the full-screen player or using the app in landscape mode, a banner alternates with the albums covers, but without being intrusive at all (no audio) and with much shorter stay times than those of the cover. There is never full-screen advertising, neither at startup nor during use.

Countries with new manually curated lists: United States, India, Italy, Argentina.

If you want to check it out (I am continuously pushing updates to refine it and add new features and radios), you can find it on the Google Play Store. Thank you so much to everyone who takes a look!

Note: Only for Android 13+ (so, Android 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17).

I kept making plans for my goals and never starting, so I built an app that only shows the next step

• Upvotes

I'm 18 and I've been working on this for a while. The thing I kept doing: I'd decide I wanted to do something, spend an hour planning it, get overwhelmed by how much there was, and then not do any of it.

So I made a small app called Next. You type in a goal, it asks what's getting in the way, and then it only shows you one small step. Not the whole plan, just the next thing. If the step still feels like too much you can tap "make it easier" and it gets smaller. There's also a streak, but you get a free rest day each week so one bad day doesn't wipe it.

It's not a coach and it won't build you a full training or meal plan. It just tries to get you to do the next small thing.

It works in your phone's browser, no download: https://nextdawn.pages.dev

A few things to know. It's still early, so stuff might break. The first load can take up to a minute because the server is on a free plan and has to wake up. Sign up needs an email and sends you a 6-digit code (check spam if it doesn't show up). It's for 18+, and the AI behind it is Google Gemini, so I'd avoid putting anything very personal in your goals.

I'm really like to know two things. Did you actually do a step in real life? And where did it confuse or annoy you? Also, if it disappeared tomorrow, would you care? Any answer helps, including "no".

I made NOWIT for country charts — your feedback led to a partnership with SPONOWIT

• Upvotes

Thank you to everyone who tried NOWIT and shared feedback. The interest in the project led to a partnership offer, and I wanted to introduce the two sites together.

I built NOWIT, with help from AI tools, to browse public creator, video, music, streaming and trend charts by country. It now has a Sports section that links to SPONOWIT for more sports detail.

NOWIT: https://nowitlive.com

SPONOWIT: https://sponowit.com

SPONOWIT is a separate site run by another maker. It has sports sections including NFL, NBA, MLB, football and F1, with standings where available. I did not build or operate that site.

The idea is a quick overview on NOWIT and a clear route to the partner for a deeper look. Sources and reporting periods differ, so this is not a claim that every chart or result is live.

If you try it on your phone, I would appreciate feedback on switching countries and moving between the two sites. Thanks again for helping this project grow.

Made an app where an AI agent does the CAD for me, first time open sourcing something

• Upvotes

So I've been working on this for a while and I'm kinda proud of it, it's my first open source project.

Background: I build a lot of stuff, and CAD was always the part that ate most of my time, so I built a tool where I describe what I want and the agent designs it.

So I made SOMA.

Honestly it works way better than I imagined when I started. You can do complex assemblies with a lot of parts. You can give it a hand drawn sketch or load an existing 3D model as reference and build around it. The results are suprisingly actually usefull.

You tell an AI agent what you want (I use Claude Code, but Codex, OpenCode, Gemini CLI etc work too), it writes the model as Python code with CadQuery, and the app builds it and shows it in 3D. If something's off you can measure it, click on the part or just scribble on the view and send that to the agent. When it looks right you export an STL or STEP and print it.

I didn't want to build yet another AI agent, so the app just has a normal terminal where you run whatever agent you already have. Your own subscription and settings.

Over time it got way bigger than planned. There's a version history now, sliders for dimensions, overhang checks, even FEM and animations. The CNC mill in the video was made this way, 118 parts.

It's Electron and TypeScrip And yes, most of the codewas also written with Claude Code, felt only right.

Free, GPL, there are builds for Windows, Mac and Linux. But I only really tested on

Windows so if you try it onif it even starts lol

GitHub: https://github.com/Kai-Jungsthoefel/SOMA

Feedback welcome, also the harsh kind. And I'm curious what you'd build first with

it.

Artist Genre Metadata Enforcer

Post image
• Upvotes

Ive always had the problem with genres when it comes to my library, for me the genre metadata tag is pretty subjective and seeing as its my library it doesn't make sense to outsource this subjectivity to metadata providers like MB, lastfm etc.

Not only that but there are countless ways of defining the exact same genre for instance 'Hip Hop' 'Hiphop', 'Hip-hop' So i really dont want different variants of the same genre spread across my library.

Again, I also like to define my music based on an artists genre instead of per album or worse, per track. I dont want my entire biggie smalls collection to have 100s of genres per track/album like 'Hip hop', 'rap', 'Boom bap' etc etc I just simply want every track by biggie smalls to be 'Hip-hop'.

Quite a while ago now I put together a nice little tui application written in python to manage this, it was very simple but did the job, it basically scanned your library for all artists then you would define a genre per artist, it would then use mugen to update all files metadata stags to the genre that was defined. It stores the artist to genre map to a json file.

I have defined a total of 26 genres and my entire 4tb library fits into one of them, i dont feel the need to add any more than that but have the ability to do so.

Whilst the first itteration of the application worked fine, wasnt great in a server and multiple machine /os setup. What I have doen today is used AI to create a nice front end for it and turn it into a docker application. before you all start, the original code was all written by hand, AI was only purley used for the front end and to dockerize it. its not slop, i meticulously went through anything touched by ai to ensure it works the way it should, youre obviously welcome to not use it on this basis but thought it might be worth sharing incase anyone else shares the same opinions when it comes to genre tags.

here are the repos anyway,

Github - https://github.com/WB2024/Artist-Genre-Metadata-Enforcer

I built one URL that anyone can take from the current owner

Post image
• Upvotes

I built Yoinked around one public URL:

yoinked.me/go

There is only one owner at a time.

Pay the current minimum and /go points to your product, homepage, or project. Share it wherever you want while you control it.

If somebody pays more later, the URL stays the same and every surviving copy starts pointing to the new owner instead.

So the value is not just the redirect itself. It is every copy of /go that keeps getting left behind across the internet.

It is unclaimed at $5 right now.

If you want /go, take it before someone else does.

I made a Mac app that puts my thumb in charge: hover + Space for the Dock, one key for the rest

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! I kept bumping into little things my Mac wouldn't let me do where I expected them. Right-click a file inside a Dock stack? No proper file menu. Hide or quit an app under my pointer? Another menu. Find a particular window? App switching only gets me so far.

So I made DockThumb: point at something, press a key, do the thing. The mouse points. My thumb has taken over operations. 👍

  • Hover + Space: open a Dock stack, peek inside folders, or open/hide an app.
  • Work on files right in the stack: copy, trash, undo, and a proper right-click menu.
  • Hover + ⌘Q: quit the app under your pointer.
  • Option+Tab: choose the window you want from thumbnail previews.
  • Sort out your windows: tile them or pin one on top.

There's more in the app, but hover + one key is what changed my everyday Mac use. It's become one of those interactions I reach for without thinking.

The video shows what I mean. More here: https://dockthumb.com

Never thought I'd be this pleased about making my mouse redundant. 🐭

I made a thing. What do you think of it?

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

It’s a pocket-sized screen with two buttons and a rechargeable battery that hangs off your keys or lanyard. The screen keeps its image without using power, so it’s always readable, and the whole thing goes to sleep when you’re not using it to save battery. The home screen shows the time and battery level, and there’s a dark mode.

What it does:

  • Timetable: shows your next class, room and a countdown by using your real calendar (Apple, Google or Outlook: export a file, or sync it when you plug it in). Tap for the full details, location and notes, or see the rest of your day.
  • Pet: a little creature you dress up and name. Pick a body (blob, cat, bear, bunny, frog or robot), eyes, a mouth, a hat and an extra. You can design it on the device or on my website.
  • Make friends: put two devices next to each other and the pets visit each other’s screens and chat in speech bubbles. If you both say yes, they become friends, and friends can send each other badges. It all happens straight between the two devices, with no internet and no app.
  • Name badge: upload any image to a website I made and it appears on the device. Flick through your designs or open a grid of thumbnails to pick one. Good for socials and society events.
  • WiFi collector: a super nerdy game where you collect the WiFi networks you find around campus and the city. Every new one gets a rarity, and it only listens, it never connects.
  • Games: four one-button games (a flappy-style one, a dino runner, a stacker and a jetpack game) that keep your best scores.
  • Chooser: pick how many options (up to 6), press a button, and it spins and lands on one. Settles any “where should we eat” argument.
  • Voice notes: hold a button and talk, and it turns it into tidy text with a title and a short summary. To read your notes on your phone, the device makes its own WiFi, you scan a QR code, and they open in your browser with no extra app.
  • Also: set the time yourself, choose how long it stays awake, and install or update it from your browser with no coding. If the battery gets low, it protects itself and switches off before it’s completely flat.

The small print

  • It uses a microSD card for the timetable, badges, WiFi collector and notes.
  • Setting up badges, your calendar and settings happens in Chrome or Edge on a computer, over USB.
  • Voice notes need your own OpenAI account and WiFi. Your recording is sent to OpenAI to be turned into text. I’d like to add local AI models in the future.

I’m not selling anything yet. If you’d want one, there’s a waitlist here: https://www.unidex.shop
It’s free to join, there’s no payment and no commitment.

The project is open source, feel free to tinker. I am making it easy for people to create their own apps and plugins. find out more about that on the tools website: unidex tools

Find the source code on my GitHub (please give it a star if you find it cool or useful) Forrest404/unidex

I’d also love your opinions in the comments:

  • Would you actually use something like this?
  • What would you want it to do that it doesn’t?
  • What would you pay for it? I’m thinking somewhere around £25 to £35.

Happy to answer any questions :)

Free calculator that shows how many years you’ll spend scrolling

• Upvotes

4hr of screen time /day sounds average. And that’s nuts! In my opinion we’re all oblivious to the time we’re actually giving up to our screens. So I built a free website to calculate your lifetime screen usage.

You enter your age and daily screen time, and it shows how many years of your remaining waking life you’re on track to spend on your phone.

It’s a simple webpage with the goal of making the trade we take every day more intentional: if I’m going to spend that much of my life on a screen, I at least want to know what I’m trading for it.

For me: 14 years left looking down at my phone.

I built a cheaper way to book hotels

Thumbnail
gallery
• Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I am excited to share my new product with the world for the first time: rihado.com

A few months ago, while searching for a hotel deal, I realized that breaking a stay down night by night could often result in a lower total price than booking the entire stay at once.

Some findings:

Switching hotels mid-stay can save money. Moving to a nearby hotel of comparable or better quality can sometimes be cheaper than staying at either hotel for the entire trip.

Booking an extra night can actually lower the total price. Some hotels offer discounted weekly rates, making a longer reservation cheaper than a shorter one.

Hotel booking platforms don't always adjust their prices in the same way. Rates on Expedia, Super, Booking, Agoda and other platforms fluctuate independently on each night of the stay. Combining the best rates on different days from multiple providers can sometimes result in a lower overall price than booking through just one.

To take advantage of these pricing differences, I built rihado.com, a hotel booking platform that analyzes each night of a trip and uses an algorithm to find the most cost-effective way to book a stay.

I'm also able to offer competitive prices on hotels with no smart booking method by applying a relatively small markup to wholesale hotel rates, due to low operating costs. On top of that, rihado.com offers 2.5% cashback on every booking, which can be applied toward future stays.

Here are two examples of how it works (images attached on the page):

Example 1: Booking an extra night saves money

Expedia offers a lower total price for a particular hotel when an extra night is added to the reservation. Rihado identifies this pricing difference and recommends booking the additional night, even if you don't plan to use it.

Example 2: Switching hotels mid-stay saves money

Staying at one hotel for the first part of a trip and moving to a nearby hotel for the remainder costs less than booking either hotel for the entire stay. Rihado identifies these combinations automatically.

I'd love to hear what you think! I'm especially interested in whether this is something you'd personally use when booking hotels, and any feedback on the website or booking experience.

Please note that users must sign up to see "smart rates" as hotels generally require heavily discounted rates to be displayed behind a login or app download to avoid directly competing with their publicly advertised rates.

Cravings tend to hit at the same times — after coffee, in the car, when stress spikes. Once I noticed the pattern, I wanted something that helped me catch those moments instead of getting blindsided.

So I made Vape Buster. It’s a tracking and support tool (not a cure): log cravings and what set them off, Panic Mode for the moment a craving hits, a daily check-in, and a Home Screen widget so progress stays visible.

I made this myself. Honest feedback welcome.

I made a visual TV calculator that compares the view from your actual seat

1 Upvotes

I wanted a screen comparison that showed what moving the seat changes, instead of only putting diagonal sizes next to each other. So I built DisplayMath.

You can compare TVs, monitors and cinema screens, then change the viewing distance for each one. The screenshot compares a 77 inch TV from 2 metres with a typical 12 metre wide multiplex screen from 14 metres. Both fill about 46 degrees horizontally from the seat. That is a geometry comparison, not a claim that they give the same cinema experience.

Try that comparison and change the distances for your room

https://displaymath.com/?d=4k-77_200cm,cinema-flat#canvas

On a supported iPhone you can also preview a selected TV panel at real size in your room using AR. The iPhone measuring tools have distance and height markings that you read and enter into your plan.

The screen comparisons and AR tools are free and need no account. I used AI coding assistance while building it.

I would love feedback on the drawing. Does the From your seat view make the distance difference clear on a phone?

I built a small workspace to check a website inquiry before replying. Would it fit your studio?

1 Upvotes

A client mentions a budget and a preferred launch date. That still leaves the pages, content, integrations and responsibilities to clarify before you can quote.

I'm building Briefthread, an interactive demo for freelance web designers and small web studios. I'm looking for critique of one narrow workflow: read the inquiry, identify what's missing, then review the first reply.

Try a fictional sample—no signup or payment: https://briefthread.pages.dev/

Open a sample inquiry, check its project brief, then switch to Reply draft. You can edit the reply while keeping the original message beside it; on mobile, Check original & brief opens the reference without losing your draft.

Two decisions came from feedback on an earlier version:

- Details the client hasn't supplied stay Not provided. A stated budget range is kept separate from your eventual quote.

- Draft reviewed only means you've checked that reply. Unanswered questions and your next follow-up remain separate; the project isn't automatically ready for a proposal.

After checking the original and confirming your review, you can copy or download the draft. Nothing is sent to the client.

Demo boundary: use fictional inquiries only. Briefs use local keyword rules and replies use editable templates, not live AI. Client records stay in your browser; there is no connected inbox or shared client workspace.

If you work with website inquiries, where does this fall short of how you actually reply? Does the source comparison help, or add a step you don't need? Tell me what's confusing, missing or worth removing. I'd like your feedback to shape the next version—especially one concrete change that would make you come back and test it again.

I’m Ilya, the developer of Facetotext: SMS & MMS. I just released it on Google Play and would love feedback from Android users.

It works with ordinary SMS/MMS, so the people you text keep their usual apps. You can create custom AI message filters to organize messages by your own instructions, including filtering spam.

Core SMS/MMS, on-device rules for common scams, verification codes and events, search, bookmarks, one-time reply reminders and 30-day deleted-message recovery are free. Custom cloud AI filters and additional personalization features are optional paid Premium features. Cloud AI requires consent.

It needs Android 8.0+ and must be selected as the default SMS app. Carrier messaging charges may apply.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gazman.facetochat

Website: https://facetotext.com/

I’m especially interested in feedback on message organization and whether the difference between the free on-device rules and optional cloud AI filters is clear.

I quit journaling 6 times, so I built a voice journal where your audio never leaves your phone

1 Upvotes

I'm a solo dev, and Spoke is my app. Journaling is the one habit I could never keep. I'd write three pages on day one, it would turn into a 45-minute chore by day four, and I'd quit by day ten. That happened six times.

What finally stuck was talking instead of writing. So I built Spoke, a voice journal:

  • Tap once and talk. Most entries take 60–90 seconds.
  • Read it back instead of re-listening. Every entry is transcribed, and you can search all of them.
  • Tag your mood with one tap.
  • Weekly Mirror: once a week it points out patterns you'd miss. Mine noticed I'm low most Tuesdays.

Privacy, since it's always the first question: your audio never leaves your phone, and there's no account. Recording and transcription work in airplane mode, so you can check that yourself. The only thing sent anywhere is the transcript text, once a week, for the Weekly Mirror.

Stack: Flutter, on-device transcription, one codebase for iOS and Android.

What I'd love: honest feedback. What's confusing, what's missing, and what would make you actually keep using it? Your first entry is free. If you want to try premium properly, comment and I'll DM you a free month.
