Founder here. I was spending too much time trying to find the signal in the noise on Hacker News, so I built a personal AI analyst to do it for me and help me win back some time.
It scans HN throughout the day and uses a profile I wrote about my work and goals to find the few articles that are actually relevant to my projects. It's been surprisingly effective at surfacing high-impact ideas I would have otherwise missed.
How it works:
You give the AI analyst a brief on your work, interests, and current focus. It uses that context to analyze new articles with Gemini, scoring each one on a 1-10 scale for relevance. For anything that scores >7/10, it generates a "big question" the article helps answer and a 3-step action plan.
I've opened it up for others to use. You can get 3 free personalized insights per day. The paid plan automates it and sends a daily digest to your inbox. You can check it out here: https://getfirstresponder.com/ai-news
It's also a Farcaster Frame, built with Next.js. The project is a work in progress by just me, and you can connect with me at x.com/1dolinski or talk to my AI at https://getfirstresponder.com/talk/1dolinski
Would love to hear your feedback
