Hi all,

I built a simple posture monitor that runs in the browser. Why? Because my neck pain has gotten to epic proportions, and this not making me happy.

Finally put it online today, so if you want to try it out, here it is: https://posturemonitorapp.com.

No installation, no signup, none of that BS. Just go to the URL and start monitoring. Yeah, it's free.

If you do use it, please do let me know what you think. I'd love to know what I can do to improve it.

Thanks!

3 months ago I built and launched ClarifyPDF.com, a "chat with PDF" app, mainly to learn how to build a chatbot, and to learn what's it like to launch a SaaS around this type of GPT app. I share my lessons and observations in this post.

Thanks for that.

What about it being $2 is going to bring abusers?

Thanks everyone for your input. More than anything, it's been really great at making look at the bigger pricing picture.

My conclusion:

I'm not going to put in a free tier, because as @brudgers mentioned below, if they can't spend $1.99 to try it, then they're not my target market.

So, in words I read somewhere else before, instead of downgrading my product, I should upgrade my customers.

I will instead spend time creating a high quality product.

And slowly raise prices as I improve the product.

Thanks again, everyone.

You've put in words what's been in my gut. Thank you.

Hmm, some interesting suggestions there. Thanks!

Captcha is a good one and easy to implement for now. Will do that.

Sorry, to be more precise, "same document" could mean the same content but in different formats. OR just slightly tweaked to result in a different hash each time. Harder to abuse for sure, but still has holes.

BTW, the web app is at https://clarifypdf.com, if you need to see what it is first.

Thanks for that feedback.

That UX flow seems strange because the screen flow should just be: 1) upload, 2) pay, 3) chat. It shouldn't have asked you to check your email for anything.

Please feel free to email me at alfarez at gmail dot com if you're still seeing this issue.

As for handling large files, I'm using a popular method of breaking down the doc into small chunks and then just sending the relevant chunks to the AI.

How to pick the "relevant" chunks? Use embeddings and search for the embeddings that are "semantically closest" to the question being asked.

I wrote up an outline of this process here: https://farez.me/how-to-create-a-chatbot-with-openais-api-a-...

Only on GPT-3.5 at the moment, so token length is only 4097. Still waiting for GPT-4 API access!

But you can upload up to 10MB in file size.
