Congrats on the launch! Where do you think the core differentiator is right now? I feel like there's a grave yard of Glean for small teams no? Maybe I'm imagining it?

Built min., it's like Airtable on top of an email client. Add any column you want, extract structured data from emails automatically, so you can sort, group, emails for your team.
First use case is hello@ email addresses for fellow founders. Free for founders!
Apply with me for W26
Channeling Brian Armstrong's og thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3754664I built min. https://getmin.ai to solve my own pain with team emails. There are some incumbents out there, and after trying them all I realized there's still a huge gap. Just applied for the W26 batch, got interviewed twice prior for different ideas with a different cofounder. That cofounder decided to quit a...
Show HN: min. – lightweight AI-native inbox for teams
I'm a control freak, the thought of having AI auto-replying to emails is ridiculous. Every founder I've met are the same way, just typing the words "Put your support/sales on auto-pilot" makes me cringe. I built min. to help me and my teammates with emails. Who should read it, who should reply, when to follow up, etc.min. is:- A simple email interface to manage both private and team inboxes.-...

Show HN: AI bot that automatically processes unstructured documents
https://www.loom.com/share/3785f8632b114afebcb17061fa368b13
Hi HN!We’re excited to share what we’ve been working on—a bot that automates the tedious task of processing unstructured documents from emails and entering them into ERPs. After many iterations, we’ve achieved 99.8% accuracy in extracting and mapping data from invoices, POs, and other documents.One surprising takeaway from this journey: building the AI was only 10% of the challenge! The real...
Turn Packets into Queryable Data
Re:Ask HN: What are some data I can't get from API payloads?
on Tuesday June 18, 2024 @06:07PM (#40722603)
Hmmm this just seems like any other data tool that connects to different data sources via connectors/integrations.
What I want to know is if I have an app that has react + API layer + database layer. Why can't I use the API payload for analytics instead of the database, because the API data is usually denormalized and has a lot more context.
Ask HN: What are some data I can't get from API payloads?
Data are stored in databases, but those data came from the product, most of the time from APIs. Why can't we use API payload data for analytics?
Re:Show HN: Real time data pipeline with a single command

Eric the cofounder here, we've just launched our open beta, and we'd love for the HN community to give Siege a try.
You can get a free API key and own cloud instance here: (https://siegeai.com)
If you just want to play around with the demo I showed: (https://demo.siegeai.com/) This obviously doesn't include the data collection piece.
We are very curious to hear your thoughts!
Show HN: Real time data pipeline with a single command
Hi HN, we are so excited to be sharing this on here!Siege is the fastest and the simplest way to spin up a real-time data pipeline, which you can then query, filter, visualize with just clicks of some buttons, no need for any instrumentation or code changes.It works by capturing JSON data from your API transactions, transforming this data, and then storing it in an optimized columnar database...
Ask HN: Voting System for Office Lunches?
Off the bat, I enjoy the free lunch at the my office, mostly because it is free. Somedays when it isn't very good, I skip it, and so do other people, there is sometimes a lot of food waste. I was wondering if people would like to have a service that gave you a few options for each day for the following week, and you can vote/rate your interest. The rationale is that people have an opinion on...

Wow that's a lot of food waste! Was upper management really disconnected with the kitchen staff and delivery drivers? They must have known burning through that much cash and wasting food is incredibly wasteful and unsustainable right? I'm really having a hard time getting my head around why management simply didn't just tighten the belt buckle...
Also assume you were paid by the hour? How many deliveries would you typically do since traffic is so terrible around the times they deliver?
