zq2240··on Show HN: We built a tool to scan used gadgets to get specs, grade and live price [video]
Hi, I am a cofounder of Retapp, we built this app in our spare time.

Retapp helps refurbishers and ITADs log their stock fast. You scan a device, and it tells you the model, the specs, a grade, and a live market price from online listing. We’d love your thoughts, especially if you've dealt with the intake, grading, or pricing of used devices.

Thanks for your feedback. I want to clarify that Starmoon is not being positioned as a therapeutic or medical device. Rather, it is intended as a supplementary tool that might potentially support emotional well-being, similar to how some doctors use YouTube videos to comfort kids for non-clinical support. Currently, we have agreements to pilot the product with a few hospitals in London to collect more data through trials to improve it.

I would argue that most hospitals in the US are private.

Thanks for asking. We will launch local LLM, STT, and TTS models in the near future versions.

Sorry, it currently support esp32-devkit and Seeed Studio Xiao ESP32S3. For the Raspberry Pi Zero, you may need to switch to a different PlatformIO environment and replace the corresponding GPIO pins.

Like in pederatic care, not every child has a parent who takes good care of them. In hospitals, it is more often play therapists who do this work, but their negative stress can also affect children's emotions. For example, some children feel very traumatized before doing line placement/blood test. This tool can help explain the specific process to them using empathic language and encourage them on specific topics.

I mean doctors and play therapists still have to do their job, We have interviewed some doctors who feel particularly frustrated about how to comfort children before tests or surgeries. They hope for a tool can help building comfort for kids -> which means time is faster to run tests.

Yeah, I know your point. Compared with human communication, I think talk with AI can be self-paced.
