Show HN: A Stripe widget that tells you how much you can safely pay yourself

https://github.com/Cashflowyai/safe-pay-stripe

I built this simple Chrome extension to always see how much I can pay myself based on my Stripe income. So now when I open my Stripe dashboard, I always see how much I can pay myself.How it works is pretty simple.You create a read-only Stripe API key (this key stays on your laptop), the widget gets the last 3 months of your revenue to calculate an average, and then you can specify your monthly...

Show HN: Gorbes – Forbes ranks wealth, Gorbes ranks value created for others

https://www.gorbes.io/

Hi everyone,I’ve been working on Gorbes.io: a small side project that tries to rethink how we measure success.I’m from France, where people often have mixed feelings (hate rich people to be honest) about wealth. That got me wondering: what if we ranked people not by how much they own, but by how much wealth they’ve created for others?Instead of ranking by personal net worth (like Forbes),...

Show HN: Stripe to Bitcoin Reserve Calculator

https://www.stripetobtc.com/tools/calculator

I run a few small SaaS projects and decided to start putting 5–10% of my monthly revenue into Bitcoin—kind of like my own mini MicroStrategy or Tesla. My goal is to hit 1 whole BTC.To make the process hassle-free, I built StripeToBTC. It links with your Stripe account via a secure read-only API key and shows you how much BTC you’d have if you’d been dollar-cost averaging from day one. It also...

noted thank you for the nice reminder. Good I ll add more free tool and open playground
what would be your specific requirement?

Right now adding chunk size, model for embedding, what else?

Image is a great challenge with OCR can be solve as you mentioned

It is the responsibility of the user. Everyone should be responsible for their own actions. We still allow knives to be sold, and most people use them for good.
yes exactly,

The main issue in scraping:

- If you scrape a lot, you will be block based on you IP; You need to use PROXY - Scraping entire website need specific logic, retries and more - It becomes an heavy background job

All the above takes time, so if in your business it is not your core feature, likely better to outsource it.

Good job doing it tho!

I guess so if you goal is to have people knows about your content, might have a small SEO bump
do you need to embed it directly in pinecone ?

If yes then DataFuel is the right choice. Adding this feature as we speak.

Please let me know :)

yes exactly working on building a competitive advantage, but the AI space is so big and only getting bigger.

Any feedback that could help datafuel becomes more unique?

Re:Show HN: DataFuel.dev – Turn websites into LLM-ready data on Thursday December 12, 2024 @11:56PM (#42406023)
Good point! Thanks for the feedback.

Let me add that to my todos.

Re:Show HN: DataFuel.dev – Turn websites into LLM-ready data on Thursday December 12, 2024 @11:54PM (#42406014)
Yes, it has an extensive proxy IP and retry system in place to bypass bot detection.

I’m also trying to gather more feedback to identify the killer feature:

- Adding vectorization to Pinecone out of the box? - Adding multiple integrations like n8n, etc.?

Any crucial pain points to avoid?

What is the main difference compare to before?

Show HN: ScrapeWebApp – The Simple Web Scraping API for heavy scraping jobs

https://www.scrapewebapp.com/

This is my story. Last year, I built a chatbot builder and ran it for a year. We needed to scrape many websites to train each AI on various websites.My experience was:- I started with my own Python scraper using requests, Selenium, and Beautiful Soup. It was okay at first, but then there were too many edge cases, and it wasn't scalable... - So I checked many third-party API tools for scraping....
