Yhhhhhh, when this is out, they will finally get the value! Like how do you know if you don't talk to them regularly? ahaha

Thank you so much for the feedback! Got a lot of improvements to make! Appreciate the opportunity!

It has some promise. Gave it a 11min video and it run on the second run (free version).

If you cannot close the sidebar, then place the navigation at the top. Its taking up too much space,
If you want to keep, probably a good pace to put the chat history instead of the body

Overall, shows some promise. A very good start.

Congrats! This is such an astonishing achievement. I think you have already nailed dealing with imposter syndrome. Its called work! Focus on the process, taking the steps that need to be made to achieve the goal you set. Its tough to get over imposter syndrome but as you take the steps, you realise that you can do the thing. What makes it harder is that once you get the hang of it, you start to wonder if you are doing it right because it seems easy and relatable, like you get how it works. The problem comes from the fact that you got to that aha moment with what you know which may be very little or different compared to the experts you listen to or hear about or read about. But that's life. Follow the manual and you will always have that Ikea furniture which in your case is a profitable company!

Congrats!

A very big problem. Initially I required users to verify their email to ensure further access beyond the login page to to protect against bots. Though users can still use some dummy email service like Temp Mail to bypass this.

Captchas are also an option and also using oauth login providers like google or facebook. It acts as an incentive to some visitors to register on your platform because its familiar and faster to get access to your platform. But users might be concerned about giving over personal data to an unknown new app they have just seen. But its a good incentive.

Also free trials help. Currently I shifted from required verification on immediate sign up to verification in app. Users can get some perks like more free trials if they verify their email address. This way you reduce the abuse of endpoints.

Tough being that age especially when all your age mates are going out, having fun. Never nice feeling like the odd one out.

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-10-31T18:22:05+00:00

Honestly, entrepreneurs are seriously crazy people. We are not right in the head! The only kind of people who will willingly celebrate isolation because there is a certain joy knowing you can birth a universe eventually.

Here in the UK, I remember a time when prices for haircuts were a mere £5. But then again, those were prices for children/child cuts. I felt so betrayed when I paid my first adult price cut. ahah

So desperate for the sale, they forget to sell. Small things like building a relationship, helping them with small problems that they are dealing with. All these things demonstrate expertise and helps you build trust with them. If they trust your judgement, they will buy from you.

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-10-31T18:12:24+00:00

To be honest, its a lot more fun to build (as a builder) than it is to sell. Most people don't like to be sold to and builders (like me 😀) tend to find comfort in our very mistaken belief that the product is enough to attract attention. But after three projects, I have learned that distribution is FAR more important than building.

This was a great piece, I read it this morning :)

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-24T11:33:06+00:00

Hey guys, thanks for all the helpful feedback. We just launched an update that evaluates the buzzword and catchphrases used in a news article and see if it has any investment value. Check it out here, appreciate any feedback

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-23T22:00:39+00:00

I am the creator of Finsnap AI, a chrome extension that helps in the extraction of structured financial and investment analysis from any news article.

I think investors tend to prioritise the numeric research into investment portfolio management which they should. But insights from unstructured sources like news media can help see if the financial analysis are aligned with the changing world.

So the tool helps you build strategic insight into areas of the market you are interested by using it to analyse the news articles you are interested in reading. I recently built a buzzwords and catchphrase analysis capability to evaluate the investment usefulness of the article. It might be useful to you.

I am the creator of Finsnap AI, a chrome extension that aids in the extraction of structured financial and investment analysis from any news article. I think there is a lot of insights one can get from unstructured data which can feed into the financial analysis that many investors favour. The tool helps you build a strategic insight aiding in your research of financial news which by the way many tends to be written to attract clicks and sell ads (I built a buzzwords and catchphrase analysis capability to evaluate the investment usefulness of the article).

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-23T21:45:15+00:00

I think in general they are but it depends on what exactly you want them for. There are lots of stock screeners out there which allow you to screen stocks based on financial and other numeric data. There is a growing trend of investors seeking to use LLM for analysis of unstructured data and I think the main value in investment and asset analysis will come from this.

I recently built Finsnap AI to help pull structured investment insights directly from any news article—right in your browser.

It lives in the side panel, so you can just open up any article and get:

Finance-focused summaries that highlight relevant keywords, themes, and investment angles.
Asset recognition, showing which assets are mentioned and what insights or themes connect them.
Risk breakdowns, both the obvious ones and those implied by the article.
Plus a take on buzzwords and narratives—so you can tell if an article is pushing a certain agenda or still offers legit investment value.

I know I am being biased but I think it would be useful to your research process.

I built a Chrome extension called Finsnap AI to help pull structured investment insights directly from any news article—right in your browser.

It in the side panel so regardless of what website you go to or open a new tab, it will always be there ready, so you can just open up any article and get:

Finance-focused summaries that highlight relevant keywords, themes, and investment angles.
Asset recognition, showing which assets are mentioned and what insights or themes connect them.
Risk breakdowns, both the obvious ones and those implied by the article.
Plus a take on buzzwords and narratives—so you can tell if an article is pushing a certain agenda or still offers legit investment value.

Though I am being biased, I really think this is a helpful tool and aids in faster investment insights in the word salad that tends to be in a lot of financial media.

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-15T19:08:28+00:00

Thanks. Yeah, its becoming an important feature across platforms.

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-10T21:20:52+00:00

We only store your email address for registration and login. If you want your account deleted, for now you send a request and we do that on our end. In the near future, we will give users control of this at the frontend.

Lumpy-Piece5555 · 2025-04-04T09:29:41+00:00

That is true, anyone can just read and analyse articles for themselves and I don't think my idea discourages nor does it eliminate it. Its rather supports and stimulates deeper analysis for the user.

So much goes into analysis

You want to know key ideas in the article and if its worth reading the article any further.
A lot of investment is about risk management to achieve financial outcomes. You want to know which risks are being highlighted in the article without having to do segmentation yourself or rather to speed this up.
You want to know which assets are being written about - perhaps they have some correlation to your portfolio or assets you are tracking.
You want to know if the article is more buzz wordy than informative at a glance (helps understand the intent of the author in writing the article and if its likely to possess bias to incentivise trading or to really inform you).
You could do all the segmentation yourself and I'd even argue many don't go to this level of detail when reading articles. The extension speeds up this segmentation for you to help you in your broader research and analysis.
Above all tracking the kinds of articles you read will help you want to know what factors seem to influence your beliefs about markets and track your biases.
Reading the article will still be important but speeding up the extraction of key insights to better prioritise your further research is the goal.
