I kept sending job applications and outreach emails with zero idea if they were even opened. So I built OpenTrace a Chrome extension that notifies you the moment your email is read, straight from Gmail.

What it does:

• Instant notification on open, with time, device, and country

• Gray check when tracked, cyan double-check when opened, right in your Sent folder

• Filters out your own opens, so it's real data

• Never reads email content just subject and recipient
  I am solo dev building in public show some support guys i will post the link whenever it is ready i will take almost a week more.

If you ve been training Vision-Language-Action (VLA) or world-action models, you ve probably noticed that the training infrastructure feels a bit unoptimized compared to the mature stack we have for LLMs. Most researchers end up relying on each model's official reference repository, which is great for reproducibility, but throughput was rarely the main priority.

We open-sourced LoongForge to bridge that gap. 

When I started building Score My Lead, the obvious move was to wire it into HubSpot or Salesforce first, since that is what most scoring tools do.

Skipped it. Partly because building a single integration well takes real time, and partly because I was not sure yet which CRM most people using this would actually have.

Turns out leaving it out was the actual feature. Anyone can use the tool regardless of what they run underneath it, no setup, no data permissions to approve, no account to migrate. Score a lead, get a number, decide what to do with it in whatever system you already use.

Still think a CRM integration comes eventually. For now, the tool being standalone is exactly why people seem to actually open it instead of putting it off for later.
anyone else deliberately left a feature out of version 1 and had it turn into the actual selling point instead of a gap?

Hey PH community

I'm a student founder building Rpire, an AI email assistant that schedules meetings, drafts replies, and sorts your inbox. You approve everything before it sends.

I just launched a waitlist and I'd love honest feedback from the PH community. (you can write your feedback in the waitlist page itself if you scroll down just a bit)

Does this solve a real problem? What's missing? What would make you actually pay for it?

Over the last year, one thing became obvious to me that Ranking on Google no longer guarantees that AI systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, or Google AI Overviews will recommend your brand.

The frustrating part has been that I didn't understand why, the existing tools only shows tracking data (which is also highly unreliable).

Hey Product Hunt community!

I just open-sourced ARIA under the BSL 1.1 license: a voice-native, air-gapped 3D spatial AI SOC (Security Operations Center) cockpit.
Enterprise data sovereignty regulations in regions like the GCC strictly prohibit banks, government entities, and defense contractors from piping internal threat telemetry into cloud-hosted LLM endpoints. On top of that, standard security dashboards are static, text-heavy relics built in the 2010s that overwhelm analysts during live breaches.

What makes ARIA different:

1. Zero Third-Party Dependency: It runs fully local and air-gapped on open-weights models (Ollama/vLLM with Qwen). No telemetry ever leaves the local network.

2. Real-Time 2-Way Interruptible Voice: You can literally hit "Discuss" and have a live audio war room debate with the system to evaluate blast radius or pivot containment strategies mid-sentence.

3. The "Trust Ladder": Deterministic guardrails so routine tasks are automated, but critical network actions enforce human-in-the-loop signoff.

I've been thinking about this lately.

Many apps start with a simple goal help people build better habits but after a while they become packed with features, subscriptions, notifications, and distractions. Instead of helping, they often add more noise.

Today's experiment:

I recreated a performance inspired by Michael Jackson's "Thriller" using only one portrait.

No filming.

No motion capture.

Hi Product Hunt community!

I've been building a desktop application called Secure Vault over the past few months, and I'd love to get honest feedback before I officially launch it.

## What is Secure Vault?

Secure Vault is a Windows application that encrypts sensitive files using AES-256-GCM and adds an extra layer of protection through USB key authentication.

Hello everyone.
I am one of the two people who make tripos tech. We are doing small digital projects and decided to take on something more serious and see where we get to.
The idea is simple: it's inconvenient to plan trips. You open Google, booking, some blogs, Reddit and spend a few hours and end up driving anyway without a proper plan. We wanted to make one place where you just describe the trip and get a ready-made document.
We've created an AI that plots a route by day and simultaneously collects a PDF waybill in real time while you're talking to it.
We are still in development. You don't need to buy anything, seriously. If you want to try the full version, write in the comments or in the personal account, we will grant access ourselves. No map, no unnecessary movements.
And if you ever decide to subscribe, it won't be charged automatically. We ourselves can't stand services that quietly withdraw money every month and then spend an hour looking for a place to turn it off. That's why they did it differently.
But once again, you don't need to buy anything. Feedback is important to us.: what's wrong, what's missing, what's not clear at all.
tripos.Tech is the first route for free, without registration.
Thank you if you read it to the end.
