Show HN: I built Hispi, an app to design custom jewellery

https://hispi.app
15•camjw•7mo ago
Designing is free and gives you a breakdown of material choices and costs, then you can get a quote if you want to buy the ring. I'm working with around 50 jewellers in London and the UK's Jewellery Quarter but I think just designing a ring is pretty nice.

Put the login gate after you generate a ring, not before. I bounced immediately because it's not worth creating an account without really knowing whether I would be interested. Let potential users invest a little time and start dreaming, so you can take advantage of loss aversion to get signups. Probably also worth adding an option more lowkey than creating an account (which I assume includes setting up a password etc.), like a newsletter that aggregates the best designs every week.

Also, it wasn't obvious to me that the examples in the "Need inspiration?" section were generated, or that I could tweak those designs.

ranie93•7mo ago
Agree. FWIw you can quickly put any email/pw to make an account and it lets you through (i.e. no email verification)
camjw•7mo ago
Ha I only added this because my wife doesn't have gmail. I think this is a problem I don't particularly care about for now - I think the parent commenter is correct in saying that the account wall is in the wrong place, so if I move the wall to where the value is (speak to a jeweler) I can defer email verification for a while.
camjw•7mo ago
Thank you, this feedback is so so useful to me. Login gate when you ask to speak to a jeweller maybe?

> Probably also worth adding [..] a newsletter that aggregates the best designs every week.

Yep this is a great idea, thank you.

> Also, it wasn't obvious to me that the examples in the "Need inspiration?" section were generated, or that I could tweak those designs.

No, its not. I will work on this too, thank you.

ojkewin•7mo ago
I asked it to "add a hamburger to the design" of a 'need inspiration' example and it served an image of a ring with a life like mini hamburger next to the jewel.
hagbard_c•7mo ago
Lucky you, I asked it to design a ring like someone gutted a pig and wrapped the intestines around a finger and all I got was a lousy login prompt.

It does! I had this running on a potato and I didn't realise people were actually going to see this! Very exciting!

EDIT: can you be a bit more specific about which part takes too long to load?

Thank you this is extremely helpful and now fixed

I designed the wedding ring for my wife, so I had a specific ring in mind to see how well it would do. I used the prompt:

A titanium ring with wavy rails on the sides, incorporating flowers in the middle of the band, where the wavy rails move farthest away from each other. The flowers should be a lily, sunflower, and then a spot for a gem, followed by a lily, sunflower, and then a spot for a gem and then a sunflower. The flowers should be evenly spaced around the whole band.

And it got the basics right, looked good, but it put the gem settings between the flowers, where the wavy rails were closest together. I tried several attempts at putting prompts in the "How should we modify this?" box such as "No, the gem settings should be where the flowers are, but every other flower" and "Don't put the gem settings at the points where the wavy edges are closest together" and it just failed hilariously. No matter how I phrased it, it kept putting the gem settings where the rails were closest together. After three (or it might have been four) attempts I gave up.

I could have explained the entire ring to a jeweler in a short paragraph, and any issues with it could be fixed in a sentence or two. I'm not sure why I need a frustrating middleman. And don't feel bad, this applies to nearly everything I use built on LLMs.

It's a cute toy, but boy are LLMs not remotely ready for production anything. I didn't even bother to give it the other aspects of the ring because if it can't get one of the most basic things in four tries of exceedingly clear language, then why would I keep going?

dmd•7mo ago
I typed in a long description, was immediately sent to a login page. Nope, goodbye.

edit: Wow, even tried logging in (with Google)… and it doesn’t even work anyway. Just bounced me back out.

camjw•7mo ago
Thank you for your feedback, will probably move the login screen a bit later.

For context, people have (unsurprisingly?) been putting some pretty gnarly things into the search box so its not obvious to me whether its good to let people put in things like "an octopus hentai ring" and pay to generate that or not. Probably there is a better solution.
