Show HN: iQWEB – a diagnostic engine for website performance issues

Hacker News - Sat, 03/07/2026 - 7:18am

I’m a solo developer from New Zealand and have been building a project called iQWEB over the past few months.

The idea came from a pattern I kept seeing when talking to web designers: tools like Lighthouse and PageSpeed produce a lot of metrics, but turning those signals into something meaningful for client conversations is difficult.

I started experimenting with a deterministic scoring model that analyses performance, structure and security signals and tries to identify the primary constraint affecting a site.

The output is a structured diagnostic report that highlights:

• the primary constraint affecting the site • the fixes most likely to produce the biggest improvement • explanations developers can use when discussing issues with clients

The goal isn’t to replace Lighthouse or PSI but to interpret those signals into something closer to a technical diagnosis.

Curious to hear whether developers think this kind of prioritisation model makes sense or if it misses the point.

Show HN: I couldn't scale my YouTube channels, so I built Shortgram

Hacker News - Sat, 03/07/2026 - 7:15am

Hey HN, I'm a solopreneur, and I've been banging my head against my keyboard for weeks trying to solve a problem that was driving me crazy: I couldn't scale my YouTube channels.

I have multiple channels, and the workflow was a nightmare: - Recording videos took 20% of my time - Editing, optimizing, scheduling... the other 80% - And still, growth was painfully slow

So I did what any obsessed developer would do: I built something to fix it.

Shortgram takes your long-form content and turns it into optimized short-form clips automatically. Think of it as your video editing co-pilot that actually understands what makes content go viral.

The stack: - Supabase (postgresql + edge functions + jobs) - Using Gemini and Claude - Google Cloud Run to compose the videos

This is the tool I wish I had when I started. I've been using it for my own channels and finally decided to ship it publicly.

Would love your feedback. What features would make this a no-brainer for you?

Show HN: Shadow, your AI Wingman for smarter conversations online

Hacker News - Sat, 03/07/2026 - 6:36am

Hi HN,

We built Shadow, a real-time meeting assistant that listens to your call and surfaces useful prompts while you’re speaking.

The idea came from a simple observation: during important conversations (sales calls, founder meetings, interviews) you often realize the best question or insight 5 minutes too late.

Shadow tries to solve that by acting like a quiet wingman during the call.

What it does right now: • Tracks agenda topics so conversations don’t drift • Suggests follow-up questions based on what’s being said • Surfaces useful facts or angles in real time

This is still an early MVP and we’re trying to figure out: 1. What type of conversations this helps most with 2. Whether prompts should be more proactive or subtle 3. How much assistance is actually useful without becoming distracting

Would love feedback from the community. Product: https://shadowlabs.ai

Show HN: Nirvana – A TUI YouTube Music Player with a Physics-Based Visualizer

Hacker News - Sat, 03/07/2026 - 6:29am

Most CLI players have very rudimentary visualizations, so I focused on creating a "Quantum Spectrum Analyzer"—a high-frame-rate, physics-driven rainbow visualizer that uses gravity-based peak falling and mirrored symmetry.

Under the hood, it manages a pool of ffplay instances and uses OS-level process suspension (via ctypes on Windows and signal on POSIX) to provide an "instant-off" pause experience without cutting the audio buffer mid-stream.

Show HN: Open Code Review – AI reviewers debate each other before feedback

Hacker News - Sat, 03/07/2026 - 6:28am

I got tired of AI code review tools that just run a single LLM pass over a diff and call it a review. So I built something different.

Open Code Review spins up multiple AI reviewers from your CLI, each with a different focus. They review independently, then debate each other’s findings, then synthesize into a single review. You get a local dashboard that spins up out of your repo to navigate everything.

The debate step is what makes it work. A single-pass reviewer hallucinates issues and misses real ones. When agents argue with each other, the false positives get killed and the real problems get surfaced with better reasoning. My team’s senior engineers have been consistently surprised by what it catches.

Latest release adds GitHub integration — post the synthesized review directly to PRs. You can post the raw synthesis or have it ghostwritten in your voice. Your call on whether that’s ethical lol.

Runs locally from your CLI, not a SaaS. No catch, pure open source. Works on any repo, any language. Fully open source. The dashboard serves from your project directory, not a separate app.

We’ve been using this daily on our own team for months. It’s the only AI review tool that actually stuck in our workflow.

Repo: https://github.com/spencermarx/open-code-review

Would love feedback from anyone who tries it, especially on the multi-agent synthesis quality. That’s the part I’m most interested in improving.
