Re:The Resistance Is Real – Why Side Projects Are So Hard on Saturday November 24, 2018 @11:59AM (#18522860)
Hi Dave, Kudos for sharing what you experienced. I actually completed a year working on https://shareseer.com on thanksgiving day. It is a side project. I have found shipping whenever a small milestone is hit to work for me. Another trick i use is to keep a backlog of items that need to be done, which brings me back to work on it. Thirdly I really care about the problem. Fourth an d finally I realized distribution is a vastly harder problem than product. Getting people to use what you build is the core of whether the product succeeds or not.

Re:Ask HN: What are you working on and why is it cool? on Wednesday August 15, 2018 @05:55PM (#17770126)
I have been working on a project called Shareseer. Shareseer was born out of my pain of finding company filings as I was learning about valuation of companies.

Another frustration of mine was reading boilerplate text when I read the company risk section. So I applied some machine learning & Natural language processing to extract the unique risks. The way to access it is to visit https://shareseer.com then search for a company name or ticker. You will find the 10-k/10-q filings along with risks marked as important by our algorithms. Alternatively you can make a query to https://shareseer.com/search?q=NFLX and replace tick with your desired tick. Analyzed Risks are available for the S & P 500. Filings are available for all companies. The other features available are a real time insider transaction feed and a company filings feed:

http://shareseer.com/today/insiders

http://shareseer.com/today/filings

It would be great if you could give the application a spin. I'm trying to learn:

a) Is this useful to you as an investor?

b) What are your pain points today in your research process?

c) Any other feedback you may have?

I think it’s cool because it allows any investor to improve their due diligence when buying an individual stock. It reduces the gap between what the people on Wall Street know and what the average joe investor knows. The insiders filings are an entire day faster than what major brokerages offer today. The risk analysis is unique too.

There is a case to say that research and valuation is better than following a trend. I’m working on a project to make the research project friction less. I would love feedback on it.

http://shareseer.com/today/filings I’m trying to learn what are your pain points with your investment research process ? Is this useful? And feature requests?
