Show HN: Open-source transaction enrichment datasethttps://github.com/steveharrison/openenrichment

Many FinTech products display a nice merchant icon and human-readable name for transactions, instead of the plain text SQ *BRICKFIELDS CHIPP that appears on your bank statement. This relies on transaction enrichment, or some way to map these strings to their corresponding merchant details. I've created a lightweight CSV file of many different merchants from around the world, corresponding transaction texts, and simple regular expressions to match those merchants. It's tiny, but hopefully can be expanded to get better coverage. The quality of enrichment improves the more accurate data we feed…

Show HN: Serverless reverse geocoding for WebMCP, ESP32, and RP2040https://nyatla.github.io/galuchat

I built Galuchat, a compact reverse-geocoding system that works without an external geocoding server or API. The same basic approach can be used in: Browsers WebMCP ESP32 RP2040 / RP2350 JavaScript / C++ / Java / Python The basic idea is to store the administrative-boundary data locally and perform the lookup directly on the device, instead of sending every coordinate to an external API. Rather than storing the original polygon data as-is, Galuchat converts administrative regions into a very large raster segmentation image. The raster uses resolutions ranging from roughly 10 m to 1 km per pix…

Show HN: Review Markdown files like a documenthttps://github.com/shudv/easy-markdown-review-ado

Markdown has become the preferred format for documentation and authoring skills across many teams. Yet, our tools to review markdown files haven’t really kept up. Reviewing changes to a markdown file still requires you switch back and forth between the preview and source mode. The preview mode is easier to read but does not show diffs or comments, whereas the source mode allows diffs and comments but is not easy to read. This is also the primary reason why some teams still hesitate to move away from Word documents, even though they want to. Hence, I built Easy Markdown Review which is an Az…

Programming or 3dhttps://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1w58w85/programming_or_3d

Hey, guys. Which field should I go into: programming or 3D? I have experience in both (500 hours in Blender and I know Python syntax; I’ve read one book on Python by Eric Metis, the course I attached is similar to what was in the book). I’m deciding which university to attend in a year and, accordingly, what to dedicate my life to going forward. These are the only fields besides sports where I’d be genuinely interested in working. Many people say these two fields are at risk of becoming obsolete due to AI, and it certainly seems that way. What do you thinkβ€”should I go study in another…

Show HN: SecMask – a 66M parameter model for finding secrets in source codehttps://github.com/AndrewAndrewsen/secmask

I started this project just to learn how to train and fine-tune models. I published my first version distilbert-secret-masker which currently averages 228 downloads per month. Some security company used it in a advertisement benchmark for their product, which it got the lowest score, but they called it one of the "five leading open-source scanners". So through spite I updated the model and should now be considered the #1 open-source secret detector ;) (according to my benchmarks) Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49535146 Points: 2 # Comments: 1

Show HN: OctoLoops – automated marketing for indie devshttps://octoloops.com

Hi HN! This is my latest side hustle, OctoLoops: an app to help indie devs and SMEs find paying customers for their business. I first started building OctoLoops around 2 months ago because so many of my own projects, big and small, had failed or petered out from lack of users and the valuable feedback that comes with them. When I started seriously digging, I found that distribution is one heck of a rabbit hole. The more I read, the more I found how much I didn't know. But I wanted to learn - and I really wanted to _apply_ that learning too, to all my new projects, in a repeatable, autonomous-…

Show HN: ToolJet – Claude Code and Codex build internal tools, no codegenhttps://github.com/ToolJet/ToolJet

Hey HN, Co-founder here. We spent 11 months to build a multi-agent system for generating applications. Then we scrapped it and rebuilt around MCP, letting coding agents do the job instead. Old multi-agent system worked great when we launched in September 2025. It was as good as it got in the internal tooling space at that time. Customers who evaluated multiple products agreed and things went well; and that's how we got into the trap of iterating the same system for almost a year. In the last few months, our customers weren't impressed by this system. The expectations were entirely different.…
