Launch HN: Jiga (YC W21) – Faster custom parts for hardware products https://ift.tt/3a0MGqATHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/2YWABfzTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/36RRcWo https://ift.tt/36RRcWo

Launch HN: Jiga (YC W21) – Faster custom parts for hardware products Hi HN! It’s Assaf and I’m the co-founder of Jiga ( https://app.jiga3d.com ). We make it fast and easy to produce parts for hardware products. You can upload a 3D model (such as STL or SLDPRT) file and get a production quote within seconds. We have a vetted network of manufacturers around the world who can produce your part with 3D printing (plastic and metal), CNC machining (plastic and metal), or sheet metal. It’s literally 3 clicks: 1. upload your file on https://app.jiga3d.com . 2. select manufacturing process 3. select quote and order. We built this because we are hardware makers ourselves. I was running a 3D printing manufacturing service before starting Jiga, and we were shocked by how bad an experience it was to get quotes and order parts online, or from machine shops. I spent a significant amount of my time and money on inefficient communication, paperwork, sourcing and quoting. Ok, so now you’re probably asking how we’re different from other online manufacturing companies? Well, besides being not as fast, they act as an unnecessary middleman. They cut a huge fee, block hardware builders from talking directly to manufacturers and getting professional feedback (such as making sure they can produce that 0.15mm tolerance exactly on that little hole). For examples, take some of our customers: an enterprise that builds jets for the US army, a company that builds a device that enables tractors to be autonomous, a hospital that builds 3D printed ventilation machines to tackle Covid-19 (first parts ordered with Jiga!) or a company that builds robotic arms. These companies start by looking for the right supplier to make their part. They email quote requests with the designs, some suppliers reply after a week, some don’t. They log this data into spreadsheets and folders while making comparisons. Finally after two weeks the supplier is ready to take your order but oh no! They mixed up the email threads and made a mistake – and the wrong part was produced. Worse, when getting into producing more than just prototypes, they have to manage the supply of many different components and timelines, making sure that that they won’t find themselves delaying over some little component and avoiding any miscommunication about parts or revisions. All this inefficiency is not only frustrating but also costly – makers and companies lose millions every year because of miscommunication and delays. We built Jiga to make this process efficient and painless. We handle all logistics (always first class/priority shipping) and make sure that customers are 100% happy with every order that they get. Additionally, we let you read supplier reviews, check their certifications and communicate directly with them. Want to make sure that the supplier is aware of that 0.15mm hole? No problem, reach to them over our platform and they will answer promptly. We make money from commissions on orders based on agreements with suppliers. I’m looking forward to talking to anyone who builds hardware, and to hearing your feedback and ideas and experiences in this space. If you’ve ever needed parts for things you were making, I hope you’ll give us a spin. Have at it, HN! February 8, 2021 at 08:03AM

Launch HN: Infracost (YC W21) – open-source cloud cost estimator https://ift.tt/2LvVsTXTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/2N2a25XTHE RIGHT PEOPLE https://ift.tt/3jw7tVT https://ift.tt/3jw7tVT

Launch HN: Infracost (YC W21) – open-source cloud cost estimator Hi, we’re Ali, Hassan and Alistair and we co-founded Infracost ( https://ift.tt/3pZI5dK ). Infracost is an open-source cloud cost estimator for your pull requests. When you change your infrastructure code (Terraform), Infracost posts a comment in the pull request, which tells you the impact of this change to your cloud bill, e.g. “this will increase your bill by 25% next month”. Existing cloud cost management products focus on post-bill analysis and target finance and management teams via charting dashboards. We built one of these back in 2013. They are all missing an important piece – the people who are responsible for purchasing cloud resources are not shown costs upfront, so they don’t know how much the resources will cost before launching them. We want to make cloud costs simpler to understand for developers and DevOps so they can make better decisions, which we believe will lead to more cost-efficient systems. In 2011 Ali and Hassan started a cloud cost forecasting company based on Ali’s PhD research. They applied to YC and got through to the interview round. RightScale acquired them in 2012. I read about their YC interview experience on HN, reached out and ended up joining them. We went on to form the team that built RightScale’s cloud cost management product (now called Flexera Optima). In our most recent startup (which failed) we were launching cloud stacks for users on-demand and we wanted a way to work out the cost of each. We hacked together something by building a GraphQL-based cloud pricing API and a CLI that parsed our Terraform code and output a cost breakdown. We released the code on GitHub as Infracost and discovered that others had similar problems. We got requests to support more cloud services and integrate it into pull requests. At the moment, Infracost supports Terraform for AWS and Google Cloud (we’re adding new resources every week). It can be integrated into GitHub, GitLab, CircleCI, Bitbucket and Atlantis, or can be used anywhere through the CLI. In the future we plan to add support for more cloud vendors and infrastructure-as-code tools (Azure, CloudFormation, Pulumi, etc). We now spend a lot of our days trawling through the cloud pricing pages working out how pricing works for different cloud services. We’re grateful for the contributors who have helped us with this. AWS currently has over 2 million price points and this is constantly increasing. Users are requesting better support for usage-based services like data transfer, S3 and Lambda. Currently we allow for usage estimates to be passed into the tool, and are looking at other methods, i.e. based on last month’s actual usage. We’ve also learned, the hard way, the importance of UX in CLI and workflow tools. So far we are seeing a few use-cases for Infracost. Some enterprise users have integrated it into their “self-service” cloud catalog to set cost expectations before provisioning. Other users have integrated it into their CI pipeline as a safety net to catch unexpected costs. And some users are running it at design time to compare options and model usage. We’ve talked to Sid Sijbrandij (CEO of GitLab), and Ian Tien (CEO of Mattermost) about when and how to monetize. Currently we are thinking about a buyer-based open core approach, in which the individual contributor edition will always be free, and enterprise paid features will include multi-team support, management reports and private cloud support. We’d really appreciate it if you try it out and give us feedback. You can check out the repo at https://ift.tt/31NTx2e . We’d love your thoughts on our approach, and anything that has worked, or hasn’t worked for you when it comes to managing cloud costs. February 8, 2021 at 06:06AM

Show HN: Weekend project, shows when the next season of your TV show premieres I treated myself to a solo hackathon this weekend and built https://ift.tt/36VTfIZ. The data is scrapped from IMDB and the website is generated using the hugo template engine. There's still a lot of optimization to be done but I'm planning to use this as a learning ground to try and get my pages to rank in Google. It would be really cool to search "next season of Ozark" and see a link to next-season-of.com. February 8, 2021 at 08:09AM

Show HN: Which Countries Have the Most Open-Source Contribution? The last two weeks of Console [1] I interviewed people who are not from the U.S. about their open-source projects. This got me thinking, are people outside the U.S. more prone to contribute to open-source than U.S. developers? So, I went looking by pulling in the location data for 500,000 publicly available repos to answer this question. Why 500,000? Well, GitHub rate limits their API to roughly 1 request per second [2], and I didn’t want to wait a year to write about my findings, or abuse their API. Anyway, here are the results: None: 328, US: 232, Other: 38, United Kingdom: 29, Germany: 25, Canada: 17, Australia: 15, Switzerland: 9, Netherlands: 8, France: 8, Japan: 6, Romania: 5, Sweden: 5, Finland: 5, New Zealand: 4, Spain: 4, Russia: 3, Czech Republic: 3, Slovenia: 2, Bulgaria: 2, China: 2, Norway: 2, Argentina: 1, Singapore: 1, Hong Kong: 1, India: 1, Chile: 1, Poland: 1 Since the GitHub location is free-form, Other was used to capture things like “Everywhere”, or “The Internet”. You might be thinking, “gee, this seems low”, and this is because not only did I only look at 500,000 repos, but, I also only took repos with >1K stars, as I considered that a good heuristic for what I would consider a “substantial” contribution. Anyway, there are obvious flaws with this approach (for example, are US repos more likely to be starred than others?), but it was enough to sate my curiosity and figured I’d pass it along to others in case they were also interested.

Anyway, there are obvious flaws with this approach (for example, are US repos more likely to be starred than others?), but it was enough to sate my curiosity and figured I'd pass it along to others in case they were also interested.

Launch HN: Text Blaze (YC W21) Programmable snippets to automate tedious typing https://ift.tt/3q5bT8w

Launch HN: Text Blaze (YC W21) Programmable snippets to automate tedious typing Hi HN! We’re Scott and Dan of Text Blaze ( https://blaze.today ). Text Blaze lets you create programmable text snippets that you can insert anywhere in Chrome by typing a brief shortcut. Before Text Blaze, we designed and built internal tools for thousands of sales and support reps at Google. As much as we tried though, our tools could never automate all repeated work for all users. We saw that there were always tech savvy reps who would build additional scripts to fill gaps and help save even more time. With Text Blaze, we wanted to create something for those kinds of reps to speed up and automate their boring repetitive work (and make it super easy for them to share with teammates). Text Blaze snippets help users to do this. You can start by taking all the repetitive messaging that they have and making it insertable with a few keystrokes. Many of our users easily save hours a month of typing just doing that. Technical users can go much further though. Our snippets can include form fields like text boxes or drop down menus in them and have dynamic fields with formulas. Users can use this to: - calculate a 15% service charge automatically when entering a price in a snippet text field. - or automatically pulling in the name of contact when sending a message in LinkedIn, - or saving data to a Google Spreadsheet every time they use a snippet, - or create patient diagnostic templates where the snippet may include a drop down to capture whether the patient is a smoker. If (and only if) the answer is yes, a follow up question and text box (number of cigarettes a day) will appear. Think of Text Blaze a little like Zapier meets Emmet. Some of the ways people use Text Blaze have amazed us. For example, the Customer Success department at a European delivery company, uses Text Blaze to standardize their comms with customers and drivers and automate much of the related processes. For example, their snippets read conversations with drivers in Intercom and automatically send a summary of the required information to a rep in the relevant Slack channel. Our most common users of Text Blaze are in customer support and recruiting, but we’re also seeing a lot of adoption in other areas like education (especially with the increased levels of remote learning with Covid). Text Blaze is free to use for many use cases and we have paid versions with additional features and improved collaboration for teams. Want to try Text Blaze out? You can get started by installing our extension from the Chrome Web Store ( https://ift.tt/2Mv195a... ). We’re a Chrome Extension as we see more and more users are spending all their time in Chrome and we want to be able to closely integrate with the different web applications they use. We would love your feedback on the Text Blaze here and your experiences with tools for end-user automation in general. What’s worked for you and where are there opportunities to improve existing approaches? February 5, 2021 at 08:10AM

Launch HN: MagicBell (YC W21) – embedded notification system for your product https://ift.tt/3aBsR8j

Launch HN: MagicBell (YC W21) – embedded notification system for your product Hey everyone! I am Hana, and along with my co-founder Josue, we are excited to launch MagicBell ( https://magicbell.io ). You can embed MagicBell in your web/mobile application to show users workflow notifications in-app and real-time. If the user is not online when you send them a notification, we can send them an email (or text). For example, a project management app can use MagicBell to show new tasks assigned to a user or tasks due soon. A code collaboration app will notify users of pull-requests that need their review. These notifications keep the workflow moving. Building a notification system is challenging. We built robust email notifications at my last startup SupportBee [0], and it took us weeks to nail down the threading, reply by email, unsubscription links, and notification preference management. When we wanted to add an in-app inbox, I felt that we were building a mini email client into our app. A well designed in-app experience needs real-time updates and state management (read/unread/archived) apart from a lot of UI polish. Not only do we save you months of work to begin with, but we also have an extensive product roadmap with features like email templates and grouping of notifications. Your customers will get a better experience each day without you having to invest in the development effort. Apart from customer-facing features, we plan to add a debug interface and analytics so you can get more visibility into your notifications. Our embeddable notification inbox is written using React and MobX, and we use Ably.io for real-time updates. We offer a React SDK [1] that lets you build a custom interface, and we use Storybooks to test our UI. Fun fact: you can see the entire catalog of React components we offer [2]. We extracted the network layer of our embeddable into a Javascript package so customers not using React can use that to build a custom interface [3]. We'll work on Vue & React-Native SDK next. Our backend is hosted on AWS. Thank you for reading. Please try out our product and send us your feedback, questions, and ideas. If you have built a notification system at work, we’d love to hear about your experience! [0] https://ift.tt/3pOAONE... [1] https://ift.tt/3cLf959 [2] https://ift.tt/3jlytaq...

Launch HN: Feroot (YC W21) – security scanner for front-end JavaScript code https://ift.tt/3jj3uft

Launch HN: Feroot (YC W21) – security scanner for front-end JavaScript code Hi HN! I'm Ivan, the co-founder of Feroot Security (YC W21) ( https://www.feroot.com/ ). Feroot Inspector is a security scanner for the client-side javascript code of web apps made for app sec teams. If you're not testing the security of the client-side code of your web app, there’s a good chance you could be exposed to Magecart skimmers, malware and spyware loaded with third-party scripts - css, pixels, tags, trackers, and more. We use synthetic users (i.e. bots—good ones!) to detect keyloggers, spyware, security misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, anomalies in the client-side code of web applications. Simulating activities that real users do, our scanner triggers all code activities first. And then it performs security testing and assessments of actual JavaScript code and everything else that is loaded into the browser when your users are using your web app. Pretty much what security scanners (like Qualys and Acunetix) are doing to test the application side code of web apps, but we do it for client-side code. So why did we build Feroot? First, nobody knows what actually happens on the client-side of web apps. Client-side code is a mystery and nobody knows when keyloggers are stealing users’ keystrokes or doing anything else sketchy. Second, existing web app security testing tools don’t perform data asset discovery. They don’t tell you what web forms exist throughout the user journeys and what information is ingested by the web app through each and every web form. All that is missing. Third, client-side code of web apps is highly variable and dynamic. As web developers are moving logic to the client-side a lot more externally controlled JavaScript code is included into users’ web browsers. Meaning, that every script, third-party and open source library can open a backdoor for hackers to exploit. We saw a need for a simple self-serve solution that brings security, developers, marketing and compliance teams together to help them secure the client-side of web apps. Feroot Inspector uses synthetic users and headless Chrome (good bots), which use algorithmic and heuristic approaches, to do activities that real users do -- type input into forms, submit forms to trigger potential keyloggers, skimmers, and all other client-side script activities. It also monitors all incoming and outgoing network traffic from the browser and uses data traps to terminate outbound network requests, to avoid any impact during the scan. Tech specs: 1) Support single-page/multiple-page web apps, and auto-discovery pm multi-page websites; 2) Resolves captchas, undetected by bot detection systems; 3) Tracks script changes, stores scripts content, detection of unauthorized scripts; 4) Audits page and frame security matrix, permission model for main frame of the page and all child-frames; 5) Detects data input and data ingestion points and report on data transfer, active data read (keystroke read), data access model; 6) Form-based authentication for scanning password-protected websites and custom scenario based authentication; 7) Detects data transfers from browser of user sessions to third-party hosts and domains; 8) Geo-decoding in real time of the destination country of data transfers; 8) Report export to: JSON (using API), CSV, Excel, and PDF; 9) Native Integrations: Slack, Jira, Datadog, PagerDuty, Splunk, JupiterOne, Sumo Logic, AWS Cloudwatch Events/logs, Opsgenie, ServiceNow, and webhooks; 10) Inspector performs non-intrusive, outside-in scanning of production live web apps. We would love to hear your feedback about Feroot scanner, as well as answer questions you might have! Thanks, Ivan & Vitaliy February 4, 2021 at 04:55AM

Launch HN: Tint (YC W21) – Embed insurance into any product https://ift.tt/3ax6TmS

Launch HN: Tint (YC W21) – Embed insurance into any product Hi HN! We’re Matheus & Jérôme and we’re the co-founders of Tint( http://www.tint.ai ). We help companies add insurance to their products. Many companies, such as marketplaces, merchants, and travel agents could include insurance as part of their products and services to make them more valuable to their customers. For example, insurance will be included when you rent a campervan for a weekend trip at Outdoorsy, to protect you if anything goes wrong. Our platform provides everything that is needed: software, access to insurers, compliance—everything required to manage risk and protect users, profitably. We met in 2014 when we were early employees at Turo, the car-sharing startup. While there, we saw the potential that insurance products have and also saw how hard it was to fully capitalize on it. Turo has an obvious and pressing need for insurance, but to fill it, they had to build their own systems, find insurers to back the program, and ensure compliance with state laws. None of this was their core business. We got inspired by the problem and by the opportunity to solve it, so we decided to create Tint. Here is a real example from Riders Share, one of our clients: you go to their website/app to rent a motorbike for the weekend and find an awesome Harley Davidson. You proceed to checkout, see a few protection/insurance options, select one, and book the trip. You won't notice, but Riders Share's app has used Tint to risk-score the transaction, decide if it should be confirmed, and calculate how much the protection should cost. Now, imagine you are a developer working on this project and need to add insurance to the product. What do you do? Instead of reinventing the wheel and adding more lines of code to maintain, you can leverage our APIs to integrate all the touchpoints required to sell insurance to your users (risk selection, quotes, issuing policy, claims, …). All the logic for the API responses is configured from our app so your insurance team can easily iterate on the next versions of your insurance product. Oh, and we also train machine learning models so we can recommend ways to improve its performance. We're live in production and have helped our clients embed hundreds of thousands of insurance policies. While our tech applies to any insurance use case, we are initially targeting marketplaces that embed insurance. We'd love to hear any of your ideas or experiences in this space. Thanks, Matheus + Jérôme February 4, 2021 at 08:02AM
