aman2k4··on Ask HN: What are you working on (September 2024)?
Im working on https://www.5outapp.com/

An app to track your groceries, to save money and eat healthy.

I think healthiest food is cooked at home and people are eating out and doing takeaways . So I am planning to build tools and features which help people to cook more at home.

aman2k4··on Show HN: Zerox – Document OCR with GPT-mini
I’m using AWS textract for scanning grocery receipts and i find it does it very well and fast. Can you say which performance metric you have in mind?
aman2k4··on Show HN: Zerox – Document OCR with GPT-mini
You meant in the web version? it is supposed to look like a blank box in the rectangle grocery bill shape, but i suppose the design can be a bit better there. Thanks for the feedback.
aman2k4··on Show HN: Zerox – Document OCR with GPT-mini
I am using AWS Textract + LLM (OpenAI/Claude) to read grocery receipts for <https://www.5outapp.com>

So far, I have collected over 500 receipts from around 10 countries with 30 different supermarkets in 5 different languages.

What has worked for me so far is having control over OCR and processing (for formatting/structuring) separately. I don't have the figures to provide a cost structure, but I'm looking for other solutions to improve both speed and accuracy. Also, I need to figure out a way to put a metric around accuracy. I will definitely give this a shot. Thanks a lot.

aman2k4··on Live near your friends
I live in Europe and have moved to more than 10 cities in my life. It always takes so much time for me to reach the point where I can confidently say that I know a city well. I wish I could make friends with people who have been residents of the city for a longer period. I've tried using Meetup to meet people, but it often full of newcomers.
