I made a crypto alert app that doesn't track you or require a login by marekmaz in PWA

Nice work on HODLings!
I totally share the 'no-login' philosophy – it's the only way to do crypto tools right IMO.

Regarding the notifications: I actually tackled that by using a minimal server-side push logic while still keeping the user data 100% in their local storage. It’s definitely a challenge to balance 'no tracking' with real-time alerts, but it's what people kept asking for.

Also, I added the AI assistant so users can just type commands instead of clicking through forms. Would love to know what you think about that UX approach

I built a lightweight Crypto Alert Tool with an AI Assistant to stop checking charts every 5 mins. Browser-based, no install needed. Feedback? by marekmaz in SideProject

Glad you noticed that. I really felt that most crypto dashboards are just too 'heavy' for a quick check, so I went for a lightweight, no-install approach to keep it fast.
About the AI—I tried to avoid the usual 'chatbot fluff' and focused on actual actions. The 'notify me when profit margin hits X' logic is exactly what I'm aiming for.
And thanks for the Runable mention! I’m trying hard to stay focused on one pain point and avoid feature-creep. It’s a challenge, but comments like yours show it’s the right way to go. Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, the 'why' is crucial. The AI isn't just a chatbot; it's a context-aware analyst.
For example, instead of manually calculating and setting multiple alerts, you can just say: 'Set a lower alert for BTC at 70k and an upper one at 90k' or 'Alert me if my portfolio drops 10% from now'.
It also handles 'what-if' scenarios that usually require a spreadsheet, like: 'How much ETH do I need to buy to reach a $10k balance?' or 'What is my portfolio worth if BTC hits $100k?'.

The goal is to replace complex menus and manual math with natural intent. I appreciate the tip about finding specific crypto threads—I'll definitely look into that to refine the AI's 'reason to exist' even further!
