Therefore this app is: - Low priced - No login - Native SwiftUI and MacOS APIs - Uses your own API keys for AI features
I was in a bit of a catch-22 after college because I switched into Computer Science fairly late, and I had health and family issues. It was either apply to tons of jobs (and have the possibility of no job even after applying to hundreds of places) or build my skills and an income-generating app instead.
Luckily LLMs got more advanced and I was able to build this without any prior experience in Swift in a few months.
In theory the lowest price and highest quality app should win over time due to just outlasting everyone else. I'm kind of confused how a lot of recent SAAS are charging $20 per person, but maybe consumers have more money than I'd expect for some things.
This app is just one step in a long-term vision I see society heading toward. Anyways, hope HN demands more from my apps! That gives me the drive to keep building.
