The Take

Drops curated, context-aware updates straight into a Slack channel and refines results with one-line onboarding and emoji feedback — a nice low-friction UX for busy teams. The core ideas (daily digests, in-channel feedback, and reactive topic tracking) are practical, but the product toes a crowded line and the page gives no signal of a novel ranking model or scale advantage.

I built a personal news-curating AI using Ruby and Claude

Scheduler wakes at 7 AM, pulls 30 GNews items, and asks Claude to score and justify the top two — the README even wires this into Claude Code so you can call /news directly. It's a neat, pragmatic toy for people who want an explainable, feedback-driven digest for a specific beat (foreign policy), but it's a niche utility that depends on paid Anthropic access and doesn't break new ground in news filtering.

See and save links from human curators only

It bets on human curation rather than algorithmic firehoses and layers simple, useful niceties — an AI chat to find things in your saved context, a weekly recap, and recall that surfaces old links based on interest. The landing and UI look restrained and iOS-native, but the core idea sits in a crowded bookmark/reading-list market; I want to know how the AI and ranking actually improve discovery versus Pinboard/Pocket plus an RSS stack.

Open Source CRM List

Yet another awesome-list—useful reference but no novel technique or tooling.
