Nope, not yet. That’s a great idea!

Tech stack: Built on Next.js/React, pulling data from the Ahrefs API and Open Food Facts API. We used OpenAI's API for the heavy lifting - deduplicating, aggregating, and categorizing 800,000+ products to build comprehensive profiles across 609 food additives. The data work was surprisingly tricky. We had to refine our Ahrefs methodology to use "matching terms" rather than "related terms" - otherwise we got flooded with irrelevant keywords (MSG search volume was massively inflated by "Madison Square Garden" ). Filtered for 100+ monthly searches to eliminate spam while keeping meaningful queries. The result: real search demand data paired with actual product usage patterns, so you can see both what people are curious about AND where additives actually show up in products. Happy to answer any technical questions!

"How to hold a program in once head" - is my favorite one.

All the work was done manually. We just selected those essays which has a structure, summarized either in bullet points or headings. We edited each fact, reducing text, because with icon you don't need as much text. Regarding automation I experimented with text extraction (using abstractive text summarization) but haven't got good results yet.

It has ppt and keynote, so you can use it in Google Slides

Hi Sam. If you have a startup that is relatively easy to launch with traction and the one which is hard to launch and without traction, which one will you choose? And how important is to have users?

This is very handy for designers, who want to use Photoshop or Illustrator with Git

This is the nicesest coment I've ever got on hacker news. Glad you find it usefull as a poster, that's how we started thinking about it. PG essay are awesome, but there are so many of them, that it's hard to keep all in one head. We did this to help myself remember.
