Show HN: I built a Claude Code plugin to query 10.6M earnings-call embeddingshttps://fn2.ai/claudeHi HN,I've been using LLMs for one-off market questions against a database of earnings transcripts since ~2025. In tech years that's a long time so as a Solo dev I built a platform around it and have been adding miscellaneous other financial tools and integrations. Backend infrastructure is super boring! PostgreSQL & ElasticSearch, with the data appropriately sharded and replicated across two regions.Some example requests:"What did NVIDIA say about data-center demand on its last call?""Brief me on NVDA, AMD and AVGO before each market open""Notify me when AAPL moves more than 5% in a day."The plugin is dependency-free Python and MIT licensed. The corpus, vector search and scheduled-agent service are hosted, so using them requires a free FN2 account. I’m particularly interested in whether people find the scheduled-research part useful, but the basic features are free with integrations for Claude Code, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, etc. Thanks!Aug 14, 2026 10:09 PM

It was 2020, two weeks before covid lockdown went into effect, and the Brooklyn-based artist and technologist had no idea what the future would hold. He started working for the food delivery apps, and as he was riding his bike across the city, he began noticing the stark differences between neighborhoods.
