Haha, this is so funny. You just managed to shrink the gap between Frontend and DB just. I like you added the disclaimer at the bottom.
Cool project! I'll definitely give it a go. Btw, did you use Elysia by any chance?

Interesting read and perspective. I had very good results with structured outputs, both text, images and tool calling. Also a lot of SDKs are using it, including Vercel AI SDK.

Thanks for sharing

Show HN: BetterQR – I got tired of $20/mo+ subscriptions for simple QR codes

https://www.betterqr.app

Hi HN,I built BetterQR because I refuse to pay more than my Netflix subscription for 3 QR codes!I just needed 3 QR codes for an event, but every tool I found wanted a ~$30/month subscription. It felt like a massive pricing mismatch for what is essentially a simple redirect and a PNG.I ended up hacking together a minimal alternative in an afternoon and decided to polish it up and ship it.It's...

Oh this is so cool! Just tried it out, great little product!
Hey I'm Dan,

I saw this idea floating around a while back and thought, I'm going to try building it.

A lot of my friends run small businesses, and I've seen first-hand how hard it is to deal with lead gen when 40–60% of your list is fake submissions and spammy messages.

So I started coding. I vibe-coded the MVP over a weekend, and a week later, the product was done.

How it works: - Drop a 1‑line JS snippet into any site or SPA; it auto-captures form submits - Deterministic checks (disposable domains, bot patterns, dupes, shallow fields) + AI analysis when enabled - Server-side processing with queued AI jobs so your UI stays fast - Privacy-first: no cookies by default, minimal data collection, easy redaction

How’s everyone else fighting this problem?

Show HN: I built Leads Ward to keep junk leads out of your CRM

https://www.leadsward.com

Hey HN,I made a lightweight lead-quality layer after helping a close friend whose forms were getting hammered by bots, throwaways, and low‑intent leads. They needed a dead‑simple way to spot high‑intent submissions without duct‑taping 5 tools and spending hours filtering their leads list.I'd love your feedback.Happy to answer anything, architecture, security, performance trade‑offs, or product...
