ddesposito··on Show HN: I built a voice AI that responds like a real woman
I mean, what technology did you use for the voice, what AI? I have a similar app but its text only.

Its a very cool app!

Was this codebase audited by a security company?

ddesposito··on Show HN: Try Archetype 360 – AI‑powered personality test, 3× deeper than MBTI
Hi Atiscant, thanks for the feedback. I rewrote the questions to avoid the good vs bad formulation, reduced the questions from 6 to 4, and I also simplified the dimensions from 12 to 8, so the result should be a tighter, better test. I need to wait until I get some data to validate, you were one of the first users, it will take some more time before I can do that. "the report kind of feels very AI generated and generic" - point taken, I will tweak the prompt to make a better use of the user's free text input in order to make it more personal - I mean thats the whole point of having an AI to help with the report. In your opinion, how many naturally recurring personality archetypes in the human population? With MBTI and 4 traits, its only 16, imho thats too few.

You are right, Yodon. Validation needs a minimum of 500 or 1000 uses, no? And I don't have that yet. To get there I first need to get to a product that people find relevant, so any feedback is good feedback at this early stage. Based on what I got here, I am going to reduce the trait pairs from 12 to 8, and re-write the questions, and put less questions to make it quicker to complete, and tweak the report format. I'll publish a V2 in a few days. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi, Jaen, thanks for the feedback. Whether they are independent or high entropy, its too soon to say, its a new framework I conceived and I am not a psychometrist, I would need to get to 500 or 1000 to see the recurrence of archetype clusters. I see your point however, some of the concepts may overlap, I am going to bring it down to 8 trait pairs / dimensions. Hogan has 7 dimensions seems. In your experience, how many archetypes exist in the human population? with 4 trait pairs, thats only 16, with 12, thats above 3000. Must be somewhere in between.

Hi all, we had a discussion this week with a UN client with 500 employees who was paying 20'000 USD per year for a well known employee engagement platform (yes, that one) --- this price is totally crazy!!! and they can't afford it anymore so now they are stuck

So we are offering a new SME package for only 499$ per year for UNLIMITED employees. Run 10 surveys of your choice. And you get a custom survey and we'll help you set it up including the AI prompt!!

ddesposito··on Show HN: Can I please have feedback on my website?
Its not really clear what it does. Try answering these questions in plain language: - Who is this for? - What problems do they have? - How does this help with that problem? - How is it unique or better than the competition? Then feed that into Gemini and ask for a landing page.
ddesposito··on Org360 – AI-Generated 360° Feedback Reports (Gemini, GPT-4, Claude)
We just launched Org360, a platform that generates AI-powered 360° feedback and organizational health reports — designed for mission-driven teams, nonprofits, and leadership coaches.

We offer three AI engines (Gemini, GPT-4, and Claude) so users can choose their preferred LLM. The leadership 360 includes not just feedback summaries, but a personalized development plan (~2500 words) crafted by the AI based on survey results.

Why build this? Most 360 tools are either overpriced, overly corporate, or lack useful AI integration. Org360 makes 360 feedback simple, coach-friendly, and affordable for changemakers and small teams.

Would love your thoughts — especially from other builders working with LLMs or doing org design work.

ddesposito··on MacBook Air future-proofing: do you get the 8gb or the 16GB?
Thanks - its more the wait time than the custom order. I'll go for the 16gb then.
ddesposito··on Ask HN: What is it like to run a VPN as a business?
I've had a similar idea. I am thinking of creating a service that would install OpenVPN for you on your own server, and send you an email with all the configuration details. Would that be useful, worthwhile doing?
