Show HN: Inamate – Open-source 2D animation tool (alternative to Adobe Animate)

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 7:15pm

Adobe recently announced the end-of-life for Adobe Animate, then walked it back after community backlash.

Regardless of what Adobe decides next, the message was clear: animators who depend on proprietary tools are one corporate decision away from losing their workflow.

2D animation deserves an open-source option that isn't a toy. We've been working with a professional animator to guide feature priorities and ensure we're building something that actually fits real production workflows - not just a tech demo.

Github Repo: https://github.com/17twenty/inamate

We're at the stage where community feedback shapes the direction. If you're an animator, motion designer, or just someone who's been frustrated by the state of 2D animation tools — we'd love to hear:

- What features would make you switch from your current tool?

- What's the biggest pain point in your animation workflow?

- Is real-time collaboration actually useful for animation, or is it a gimmick?

Try it out, break it, and tell us what you think.

Built with Go, TS & React, WebAssembly, PostgreSQL, WebSocket, ffmpeg (for video exports).

Show HN: Insurance AI Benchmark – 510 scenarios from production

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 7:04pm

We published the first public benchmark for insurance AI agents on HuggingFace.

What it contains: - 510 real insurance scenarios - 10 categories across 9 insurance lines - Train/val/test splits (357/76/77) - 4 routing decisions per scenario: AI handles, AI with verification, human handoff, hybrid collaboration - 3 evaluation metrics: intent accuracy, routing accuracy, action completeness

Why it matters: Insurance is precision work. A wrong routing decision costs money and trust. Most AI benchmarks miss this. They don't test what matters in production.

This data came from a real voice AI system. Years of customer calls. Actual insurance decisions. The scenarios are messy. They're real.

Open source: Apache 2.0 license. Ready to use.

Implementation: https://github.com/pavelsukhachev/hybrid-orchestrator Paper: TechRxiv (IEEE) - "The Hybrid Orchestrator: A Framework for Coordinating Human-AI Teams"

Show HN: Hybrid Orchestrator – Reliable AI agents for finance

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 7:04pm

I built AI systems for banking and insurance. They failed too often. So I created a framework for human-AI teams.

The Hybrid Orchestrator has four patterns: (1) session state that survives context window limits, (2) multi-channel communication routing, (3) activity monitoring with triggers, and (4) human escalation pathways.

These patterns come from a production voice AI system for insurance applications. The code is Python, 97 tests, Apache 2.0.

I also published a research paper on TechRxiv (IEEE) describing the architecture.

Feedback welcome. What patterns do you use for reliable AI agents?
