Built in just two weeks, interm.ai is a cross-platform “Cluely-style” AI side-kick for interviews and sales calls.

Electron desktop app ships as one code-base for macOS, Windows and Linux. A tiny Swift CLI grabs lossless system audio + screenshots on macOS; Windows uses Chromium loopback.

Mic and speaker are captured as separate streams, so Google Speech-to-Text (Deepgram later) and GPT-4o can label the interviewer vs. the user in real-time.

UI suggestions arrive in < 500 ms.

Landing page lives on Bolt.new; demo videos were generated automatically with Claude Code.

Built this to help technical founders succeed at founder-led sales. It listens in on your calls and suggests what to say in real time — like a smart teleprompter.

We’re testing with early users now. Join the waitlist: saleshint.com Would love your feedback!

Thanks for the reply! Do you ever worry that you'd have loopholes in the paperwork, with a lawyer's review?

Show HN: BillFlow – AI Debt Collection for Logistics ($500k+ Collected)

https://www.billflow.ai/

Hey HN! My co-founder Xin and I built BillFlow to simplify debt collection for logistics companies and other industries handling tons of invoices. Our AI tool helps track down payments, sends reminders automatically, and provides analytics to make collections smoother.Since launching, we’ve already collected over $500k in overdue payments—90% of invoices typically get paid within 35 days. We’d...

Then maybe Sergey and Larry should also get the prize since they founded Google, which owns Deepmind?

I couldn't figure out how to DM you on HN, so I'll send you an email. Thanks!

I'm trying to make NPCs out of AI agents so this would be really useful to me. Thanks for open sourcing the work!
Re:Microsoft AutoGen: possible plagiarism/academic misconduct? on Thursday November 23, 2023 @06:09PM (#38398776)
I came across this tweet: https://x.com/guohao_li/status/1727641559259029921?s=46. It seems this guy came up with the same idea, did experiments, published the paper on NeurlIPS 2023, all of which were way ahead of AutoGen. There's also hints on plagiarism/academic misconduct. If so, huge shame on MSFT!! What do y'all think?

P.S. Happy holidays!

No one's paying anything - it's a free product. In the cases where you request stuff like food delivery, we pay the fees for you and you pay us back after you receive the food.
OP here: I've taken down the service permanently. Cheers.
I emailed the HN moderator to remove my personal information and assign a random username to this post, just to avoid potential cyber-stalking. I'm glad I did it.
OP here - I'll provide some more context:

Why you built this? - I was very impressed with the AI butler Jarvis in the Iron Man movies but thought it was impossible to build it. ChatGPT suddenly makes it possible.

Did it work? - Perfectly? No. It's a Minimal Viable Product that's limited in functionality and scalability. Jarvis will help you while it can, but when it can't I'll step in and do it manually. It's sub-optimal, but the whole project is super early and I gotta do things that don't scale.

Your landing page looks crappy. - I spent most of my time working on the backend of this. I bought the domain name from GoDaddy and rolled with it for the page as well.

I hate it/It's terrible/I just want to troll. - Please enjoy. Happy April Fool's Day! But I'll still treat all your requests seriously.

Thanks - I'll look into this.
We weren't able to deliver the milk you requested because you were trolling and refused to tell us where to send it.
Thanks I'll look into them! It seems Magic wasn't hated this much when they launched. Did I do anything wrong? I'm new to HN.
It's a Minimal Viable Product that isn't perfect. Already shut it down since y'all hate it so much - thanks for all the support.
It's currently down due to large traffic - fixing it now...
What did you ask it to do?
