Hey HN,

I've been building YourFinanceWORKS, a comprehensive open-source financial management platform that combines enterprise-grade features with AI-powered automation. Think of it as a self-hosted alternative to QuickBooks/Xero with advanced capabilities.

## What makes this interesting for HN:

*Technical Architecture:* - Multi-tenant design with database-per-tenant isolation - FastAPI + PostgreSQL + Redis + Kafka stack - AI-powered OCR using vision models (95%+ accuracy) - Event-driven architecture with background processing - Plugin system for extensibility - Docker deployment with production-ready configuration

*AI Integration:* - Receipt/invoice OCR with structured data extraction - Natural language queries ("Show me overdue invoices") - Fraud detection and anomaly analysis - Risk scoring for financial documents - Configurable prompt management with versioning

*Key Features:* - Professional invoicing with AI templates - Automated bank reconciliation - Multi-level approval workflows - Real-time financial dashboards - Advanced audit trails and compliance - Investment portfolio tracking plugins

*Open Source Innovation:* - Dual-licensing model (AGPL for core, Commercial for enterprise) - Transparent AI prompt engineering - Community plugin ecosystem - Comprehensive documentation (100+ pages)

## Why I built this:

After paying thousands for financial software that didn't meet our needs, I wanted to create something that: - Respects user privacy (self-hosted) - Provides enterprise features without enterprise pricing - Leverages modern AI for actual automation (not just buzzwords) - Has a transparent, extensible architecture

## Quick start: ```bash git clone https://github.com/snowsky/yourfinanceworks.git cd yourfinanceworks docker-compose up --build -d ```

## Interesting technical challenges solved: - Secure multi-tenancy at database level - High-accuracy financial document OCR - Real-time financial dashboards with WebSocket updates - Configurable approval workflows with AI validation - Cross-tenant analytics while maintaining isolation

The project is production-ready with comprehensive documentation, automated tests, and deployment guides.

Would love feedback from the HN community on the architecture, AI implementation, or any aspect of the system. What features would make this compelling for your use case?

Hey HN,

I built Leyoda — founders create an interactive startup card and share it as a single link. Investors get everything at a glance: metrics, stage, team, fundraising status. Tap to flip for pitch deck, video, and socials.

Every card has real analytics — views, shares, card flips, top referrers (we detect WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Telegram, in-app browsers), geographic breakdown via GeoIP, and device stats. We also track which AI systems are crawling your card (70+ bots identified, from ChatGPT to Gemini to Perplexity).

The idea: replace the "check out my deck" cold email with one link that tells you who viewed it and where they came from.

Free during alpha. Would love feedback — is this the kind of link you'd actually send to an investor?

I’ve been using a messy spreadsheet and manual copy-paste to get testimonials onto my site. Existing tools either charged too much or buried the useful parts behind enterprise plans.

So I built ProofGateway. It’s built around one idea: *share a link → customers submit → you approve → display on your site.*

No back-and-forth, no chasing people. You send a collection link (in email, social, or on your site). Submitters don’t need an account. You approve in a dashboard, then embed widgets wherever you want: grid, slider, badge, or single quote.

Pain points it addresses: - Manual collection and chasing - Approval and moderation - Publishing on multiple pages and sites

Tiers:

Free ($0/mo):* Collect testimonials, moderate in a dashboard, public wall page. No card required.

Pro ($19/mo): Everything in Free, plus: - Website embeds (grid, slider, badge, quote) - Bulk import from spreadsheets - Custom appearance (themes, density, avatars) - White-Label add-on ($10/mo) — remove all ProofGateway branding for agencies and consultants

Unlimited testimonials. Unlimited embeds. No usage tiers. Most tools charge more for more widgets — we don't.

Early supporter offer (first 100 customers): $59 for your first year, then 10% off the monthly price forever. Limited spots. [proofgateway.com/early-supporters](https://proofgateway.com/early-supporters)

Launch date: March 2nd, 2026.

Tech: Next.js, Supabase, Stripe, Vercel. Built for founders who want something that works without sales calls.
