Made a quick video/demo and added in the home page. Hope this helps to understand the product.

I don’t see it. I see that there’s a link to a tweet [0], but it isn’t accessible without a Twitter account.

The only visible message is:

> Made 50% progress on Alertfor. Its getting smarted in collecting web data.

> Alertfor works like this - "You ask question, it find answers in the web then you can tract the answer for changes" (AQTA - ask question track answer)

> Here are some use cases I tested . . .

I’m assuming the demo is a self-reply to create a thread, but those require a Twitter account to view these days.

Yep don’t have a twitter account, don’t want a twitter account and hate how common it has become to link to tweet threads I can’t read.

The product looks cool, but plus one on a demo video on the page.

Yup, pretty much never clicking anything with an x.com or twitter.com domain again. Ever.

Love the smooth zooms in that video.

You would probably love it less if you watched the video in full screen on a big monitor, the constant zooming made me feel slightly nauseated...

Show HN rules requires you to have allow people to use it, ideally without creating an account. Otherwise it can just be a regular non-“Show HN” post.

You can find the rules for “Show HN” posts here: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

The rules suggesting that I would get more feedback if there is no signups. Anyways, luckily I have got enough feedback :) next release will have some public access without signups.
