Edit: Really thank you all for the love you're showing to Scani.. Hey everyone, I’m Steven I’m launching Scani today: a native macOS app notarized by apple I built to make screen text/image capture and search faster and less painful. The problem A lot of useful text on your Mac is not actually selectable. It could be inside: screenshots PDFs videos scanned documents etc.. I really didn’t like apple’s default implemen

Hi, I'm Flora. I'm an individual developer. Here is my LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/flora-wang-9a028a407/ I've been building GeekLink(https://geeklink.dev/) for almost five months. Problem: Most of the products for subtitle editing are separated. Usually, you have to use a transcription tool to get the subtitles, use another tool to translate them, and then transfer to another tool to burn subtitles. I am ti

Hello everyone, I’ve been working on SubSmith for a while. I wanted a faster way to bridge the gap between watching local media and getting high-quality cards into Anki. Problem Sentence mining from video/audio usually means juggling separate tools: one to transcribe, one to scrub for the right moment, and another to grab the audio clip and screenshot for Anki. It's slow and disjointed. Comparison There aren't many d

Some of you might have seen I posted a little over a month ago about Avocado. Avocado is an invisible for screen sharing or recording teleprompter that hides in your notch, but can also float anywhere on the screen. Still free and has a one time payment to unlock all the features. Despite a very saturated space and a rather niche product, I got really positive feedback - a lot of people wanted to try it, and quite a

No not Activity Monitor. I have to explain what happened today. So today I was sharing my screen on a Zoom call and my cursor started moving slowly and turned into a beach ball and the call froze. I had one browser opened with 10 tabs and 7 of them in suspended state - regular sites like Gemini, youtube, and wikipedia. On activity monitor the browser is using 609 MB of RAM but memory cleaner by Nektony shows it's usi

Hi guys! Problem: I'm a software engineer who mainly works on mobile applications for the iPhone. For quite a while Ive been interested in graphics but I've always struggled with matrices in linear algebra. Specifically, being able to visualise the linear transformations and to really get an intuition of how the transformations are calculated. Comparison: As I hadn't found a tool that does this I built an application

Hey everyone, I released the first version of Wunderbar over 2 years ago here. Since then it's been downloaded by hundreds of people and has 83 reviews across countries, averaging 4.4 stars. I originally built it to help myself learn German words while working on my Mac. Since then I've added support for multiple languages, pronunciation playback, and more. What's new: 4-button review system (hard, medium, easy, lear

I’m building a Mac app, but I’m not really sure how to price it properly. I’ve read a lot of posts here, especially discussions about pricing, and it seems that once a lifetime price goes above $10, many people already feel it’s too expensive. At the same time, a lot of relatively simple tools are priced around $6, and people seem perfectly happy with that. But whenever subscriptions are mentioned, people here seem s

Hi guys! Problem: A couple of months ago I posted about Linear Algebra Visualizer - an app I developed, initially, to help myself with visualising matrix transformations and get a deeper intuition about how they are calculated. Version 2.0 just shipped with some features that had been requested here and elsewhere, which was matrix compositions (being able to chain together different transformations). I've also added
