Interesting. Which platform/PC config did you use?

I gave it another try after many years and I must say since last year or so they made significant improvement in performance and speed. Another area they shine particularly well is privacy. They made some privacy features baked into the browser itself, which is a good move.

Google Lens works great in individual use cases, wonder what they are using behind the scene.

In my case I need to extract data on server side, so a library/API will be most suitable.

Does it work well with scanned PDF? In my experiments it was not giving the correct output.

Great first version of the project.

It'd be cool if this can be a VSCode plugin.

Hacking of connected devices is the new threat for humanity.

Do online courses form coursera and edx,and try to complete all the assignments..this helps a lot

Interesting concept. But not able to run your script.

Like the idea. Can do better in design.

How soon!! And which three countries it's launching next?

Lately, Meteor has been the de-facto choice for all our side projects. It is really simple and powerful.

Crunchbase and Crunchbase-like platforms are more data-centric as they give you exhaustive feed of startups with the amount of funding raised, while FundingHunt is a story-centric platform, which is more human way to consume this kind of information.

Also, features like upvoting and discussion thrive more significantly if it has a user-submitted model rather than automated feed.

I have written more about it in my Medium post here: https://medium.com/startup-study-group/why-did-i-create-fund...

Feels amazing you liked FundingHunt :)

The model of FundingHunt is similar to Hacker News or Product Hunt. All the funding stories are user-submitted in order to maintain the quality and consistency of posts.

You can also post startup funding stories on FundingHunt at: http://www.fundinghunt.co/submit

We all love to read and discuss startup funding, don’t we. It works as adrenaline for current and future entrepreneurs. I created this small product called FundingHunt, one place where you can check out all the funding stories, post new stories, upvote funding event of companies you love and admire, dive into discussions and give your opinion at http://www.fundinghunt.co/

Here is a Medium post about the story behind FundingHunt. https://medium.com/startup-study-group/why-did-i-create-fund...

It'll be my pleasure to answer your questions and queries about FundingHunt.
