TIL @SFPD openly broadcasts live police chatter 🤯

a user DM’d me their app that taps into the audio stream, transcribes using Whisper, and makes all SF police chatter instantly searchable.

Wild.

Amazing product

[Henry AI @HSV25AI]

Just 1 simple prompt!

[Henry AI @HSV25AI]

I just built an entire app in Solar using just one prompt. Only one error popped up along the way, and that was it... I was done!
Honestly, I’m blown away by how far AI coding agents have come. This is a massive leap forward. Vibe coding is here to stay! #trysolar @try_solar

What if an app builder felt like Figma?

The team at @try_solar just built it!

[Y Combinator @ycombinator]

Solar (@try_solar) lets small teams collaborate with AI agents to build and deploy production apps.

Combining the best parts of Figma + Cursor, Solar has shipped production apps with ML backends, gorgeous UIs, and automated QA — from concept to deployment in under an hour.

Congrats on the launch, @jackmcoxford, @vivekhaz, @dandipietro1, and @zirayhao!
