Show HN: Sipp – Run small local LLMs in browser 3x fasterhttps://www.sipp.shHi HN! Sipp is an open-source AI inference library for running local models in browsers with up to 3x faster decode speeds than alternative libraries.My background is in HCI (human-computer interaction) and graphics programming. Me along with my co-founder have been experimenting and thinking a lot about what the next user experience will look like when tokens are commodified to the point of being essentially “free.” A motivation for us was to try to move beyond the chat app and information retrieval use cases that are dominant now, and figure out how AI could instead act as a continuous and silent hand that helps the user indirectly, subtly monitoring their intent and dynamically generating or shifting the UI to meet their needs.In our explorations, we ran into two pain points: 1) when running AI in the browser, performance wasn’t good enough for real-time applications, and model loading and caching were issues; 2) when trying to run locally on desktop, there weren’t any good solutionJun 24, 2026 2:52 PM

ESA’s Euclid captures the Milky Way’s crowded hearthttps://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Videos/2026/06/ESA_s_Euclid_captures_the_Milky_Way_s_crowded_heartThis is the largest high-resolution photo ever made of our Milky Way galaxy’s centre in visible light. It was taken on 23 March 2025 by the European Space Agency’s Euclid space telescope. Packed with more than 60 million stars, this image opens the door for scientists to confirm the existence of any exoplanet found in this region and measure its mass using tiny changes in starlight over time.Jun 24, 2026 10:00 AM

Show HN: BitVanes – A zero-trust RAG pipeline engine in Rust, WASM, and Arrowhttps://www.bitvanes.com/Most RAG pipelines ship raw, sensitive documents over the wire to cloud services just to get them parsed, scrubbed of PII, chunked, and vectorized. BitVanes is a zero-trust, local-first ETL engine designed to solve this. It’s written in Rust, spits out Apache Arrow RecordBatches, and compiles to both a native CLI and WebAssembly so you can run the entire pipeline directly in a browser sandbox. I've got the wasm version at the posted url. Core and cli are on github.I'd love to get your thoughts on the architecture, particularly around using Arrow (it's my first time using AA, I'm coming from capnp), or the Rust-to-JS design for pdfs to keep the wasm package reasonable.I'd like to crates the package once I've had some people kick the tires and I get it ironed out.Jun 24, 2026 12:37 AM

Show HN: Pool – A lightweight financial account with members and ruleshttps://poolmoney.com/Hey all, we’ve been working on a new consumer financial account called Pool. It’s designed to be ephemeral and used for a specific purpose.Checking accounts have turned into a junk drawer: money flies in and out and we hope for the best. That works well enough, but at some point there's money that needs to be shared or tracked for an ongoing, dedicated purpose. Shared use cases (think house funds, nanny cards, classrooms, side projects, Discord servers, and more) are especially painful. Checking accounts, spreadsheets, P2P apps, and tracking apps fall short. We wanted something more like a silverware drawer. Purpose-built compartments that everyone understands.We wanted an account that would hold money, support multiple members with assigned roles, and offer spending rules, permissions, and cards. Customize your Pool as you like and use it for a day or a decade. It’s meant to complement, not replace, your primary account. This didn’t really exist, so we built it.With the ongoing “agentJun 23, 2026 8:00 PM

Show HN: Appstr for Indies managing lots of appshttps://www.appstr.ai/I have 11 apps in the Apple App store and 3 in Google Play store. Every time I submit a new app, I have to provide a privacy policy, a support URL, and some sort of product description page. Even more challenging, I had to keep track or customer reviews and submitted feedback because in the very early days of app launches, those first few reviews are the most critical and carry the most weight.So I built Appstr just as mini platform to quickly auto-generate multiple privacy policies (based on the app-specific data collection), host feedback forms to capture user suggestions and support issues, and a monitor to keep tabs on the reviews as they come in. It also sends me daily and weekly summary updates across all of my apps and also automatically groups the feedback and complaints so that I can prioritize the fixes and new features.I have made Appstr available to everyone because this seems like a pretty common problem that many app developers should be facing.

Show HN: We Help Voice AI Handle Group Conversationshttps://github.com/attenlabs/saa-sdkHey folks. We built SAA (Selective Auditory Attention) after trying to find ways to make a good experience with multiple robots/multiple agents. What typically ended up happening is they'd never stop talking.This is an SDK you can put before your STT. It lets you know when your device is being spoken to or not without a wakeword. You can use it for: -Single AI, Multi human -Multi AI, Single human -Multi AI, Multi human (we recommend also adding a wakeword on top for a better system)There are two models. One that is video + audio and one that is just audio. The way it overall works is that it looks for shifts in attention patterns (body language changes, vocal patterns) to work. It's a tough problem to nail as every human being is different in how they interact with people/devices.Let me know how it is!Jun 23, 2026 6:20 PM

Show HN: peerd – AI agent harness that runs entirely in your browserhttps://github.com/NotASithLord/peerdHey HN. http://peerd.ai is an AI agent harness that lives entirely in your browser as a web extension. You don’t have to install a separate “AI browser”. You don’t have to bolt on or run some external process or manage a clunky mcp integration. It’s just a fully contained web extension, written in no build vanilla JS with minimal non-browser dependencies, using your own provider keys, and Apache 2.This isn’t just a fun hack. While it has largely been a solo side project, I genuinely believe the browser and the web could be the most natural platform for AI agents to operate safely, autonomously, and most importantly without A2A middlemen (more on that in a sec). To demonstrate that point peerd doesn’t just drive browser automation. It spins up isolated sandboxes using tabs and worker instances to support various real workload types. Those include headless JS computational work, visual JS notebooks, personal client side apps, and real Linux VMs on top of wasm with full http networking.ThJun 23, 2026 3:05 PM
